Which verb for "get off" / "leave" the Shuto Expressway?


I'm not sure which way to say something like exit/leave/depart/get off/escape
is most appropriate when the thing I want to get off is the system of
expressways in Tokyo called the Shuto 首都高.

I'm not sure that any of these would be right:

  * 出発する 
  * 下車する 
  * 残す 
  * 終了するには 




You can use 降りる. User @Chocolate is also fond of 出る

> 高速を降りる  
>  高速を出る

You can use these in the same way to express your idea of getting off of one
form of expressway onto another.

> 首都高を降りて高速(or whatever)に入る・乗る

Just to address your original guesses:

出発する is to depart, as in the place of origin.

下車する is to get out of a car/vehicle.

残す is to leave something in the same way that you might leave food uneaten.

終了 is when something finishes.
