Idiom: Hit the road
Example 1:
Jeff: Hey, Bill. What
time is it? I need to be home by 10 or my mom will kill me.
Bill: It's 9:15.
You'd better hit the road soon if you want to be on time!
Jeff: You're right!
Bye!
Example 2:
Man 1: Excuse me, who
are you and why are you taking fruit from my tree?!
Man 2: Sorry, they
just looked really delicious and I wanted to try one.
Man 1: Well, you can't
just take fruit from MY tree! Hit the road before I call the
police!
Meaning: To hit the road is an informal expression that means leave,
go, or begin a journey/trip.
