Expressway　exit　areas　experience　traffic　diversion　and　complex　road　conditions,　making　them　accident-prone　areas.　In　this　study,　transverse　and　fishbone　visual　illusion　deceleration　markings　were　selected　to　optimize　the　induction　facilities　at　expressway　exits.　The　research　aims　to　investigate　the　impact　of　these　markings　on　the　driving　behavior,　cognitive　load,　and　physiological　characteristics　of　drivers　in　various　distracted　scenarios　at　expressway　exit　areas.　Furthermore,　a　comprehensive　evaluation　of　each　experimental　scheme　is　conducted　using　the　Matter-Element　Extension　Model.　The　study　found　that　the　implementation　of　deceleration　markings　can　effectively　enhance　driver　alertness　and　lane　change　awareness,　enabling　drivers　to　reduce　their　speed　to　near　the　speed　limit　in　exit　areas　without　compromising　driving　comfort.　Compared　to　the　situation　without　markings,　drivers　begin　to　decelerate　approximately　600　m　earlier　and　exit　the　ramp　when　markings　are　present.　Fishbone　deceleration　markings,　in　contrast　to　transverse　markings,　result　in　lower　vehicle　speeds,　smoother　deceleration,　and　more　effectively　stimulate　drivers＇　intention　to　change　lanes,　guiding　them　to　make　the　final　lane　change　earlier.　Based　on　the　comprehensive　evaluation　results,　it　is　recommended　that　transverse　or　fishbone　deceleration　markings　be　considered　in　engineering　practice.　These　markings　have　not　produced　significant　effects　on　driver　visual　fatigue　and　driving　load,　with　fishbone　markings　demonstrating　superior　comprehensive　evaluation　outcomes.　These　research　findings　can　provide　valuable　insights　for　future　expressway　exit　area　marking　design　schemes,　further　enhancing　driver　safety.
