What is likely to happen as you approach intersections and exits?

As you approach intersections and exits, it is common for the formation of vehicles to become uneven. This unevenness can occur due to various factors, such as differing speeds, lane changes, and drivers reacting to traffic signals and signs. When vehicles encounter an intersection, some may need to slow down for a stoplight, while others may be yielding or turning, leading to a mix of speeds and positions on the road. This variability can make traffic flow less consistent and can create a more chaotic driving environment as drivers navigate their choices in real time.

In contrast, other outcomes such as the formation becoming more uniform or all vehicles speeding up generally do not happen as widely in these scenarios, especially given the potential complexities and commands of traffic control devices. Additionally, the notion that traffic will clear does not typically apply, as intersections and exits often experience congestion or slowed movement, rather than a smooth or "cleared" flow.
