    Whether being unsure of where you going translates to being danger is entirely a matter of attitude. If you blast over lanes when you spot an exit late, then that’s dangerous, but you can also just… not do that, and accept that you’ll go the wrong way sometimes.

        That’s fair enough, if you know it affects you that way and you have a mitigation that’s very sensible. I’d just emphasise that it doesn’t affect everyone the same way, but you probably realise that

      You can do that, I do that, but there are an awful lot of drivers who seem incapable. My home commute has 2 lanes exiting the expressway and I need the left (inner) one to make my turn at the base. It seems like more than one trip in ten I’ll have somebody driving in the right lane realize they’re about to be forced off the expressway at the last second (after 2 miles of exit only warning signs, dashed stripes on the road informing them of forced exit in less than 1/2 mile, etc.) and they’ll swerve without looking across my lane, often across the painted exit median covered in debris because only a few idiots ever drive on that part of the tarmac.
