Clearance required to use high speed exit?
Hi All,
I'm curious about the use of High Speed Exits, and if a clearance to use a high speed is required? I've had a look at Part SERA, CAP413 and others and can't find much on the subject.
For Instance, if I were to land and not receive instructions to the contrary would it be acceptable to assume I may vacate onto a rapid exit taxi way and hold prior to the adjacent taxiway? Would lead off lights affect the situation?
Thanks!

Rather than specifying a particular exit (which could spur you to brake heavily and burst a tyre) I would always say 'vacate first convenient left/right'.

No specific clearance is required but it is always appreciated if you get off as soon as able.
All exits are available unless NOTAMed closed or I tell you otherwise. If I want you to target a later exit than your type would normally make, then I will state that too on first contact.
I will also add a "take your time" if there is no need to brake hard or keep too high a speed for too long.
