Slip lanes are right turn (or in left-hand drive countries, left turn) lanes which are separated from the remainder of an intersection by channelization islands. Often the slip lane is not signalised, while the main intersection has traffic signals. This arrangement generally improves vehicle capacity, and reduces vehicle delays, but is controversial, as the unsignalised slip lanes often see comparatively high speeds, and thus endangers pedestrians and cyclists.
