Correct answer
Leave the motorway at the first exit.
Leave at the first exit under Article 38.2. Use hazard lights if unable to reach the minimum speed and there is a risk of being hit from behind, under Article 49.3. Do not strain the vehicle to gain speed. If safe continuation is impossible, stop and follow the applicable emergency measures; the question assumes reaching an exit is safe.
