A DC9 flight crew passed the runway exit that the tower had designated as a runway exit point during rollout. The flight crew had been in the process of switching pilots in control of the aircraft, the PIC ckp as first officer to the captain trnee. The old '80 KTS' routine.

Narrative:
While conducting an IOE for a newly designated captain, and I acting as PF (instructor/check airman), as aircraft is being handed over after decelerating through 80 KTS, we missed a transmission to clear the runway. Only transmission we heard was to clear at intersection M. We were told by ground to call tower upon arrival at gate. During rollouts, tower controllers occasionally give instructions and are expecting answers while aircraft is still in a critical phase. It would be a much safer operation if a clearance to exit a runway at a particular taxiway is given on final approach so plans can be made to accept or not -- if conditions are favorable (yes) or not accept if conditions are not favorable.

Title: A DC9 FLC PASSED THE RWY EXIT THAT THE TWR HAD DESIGNATED AS A RWY EXIT POINT DURING ROLLOUT. THE FLC HAD BEEN IN THE PROCESS OF SWITCHING PLTS IN CTL OF THE ACFT, THE PIC CKP AS FO TO THE CAPT TRNEE. THE OLD '80 KTS' ROUTINE.
Narrative: WHILE CONDUCTING AN IOE FOR A NEWLY DESIGNATED CAPT, AND I ACTING AS PF (INSTRUCTOR/CHK AIRMAN), AS ACFT IS BEING HANDED OVER AFTER DECELERATING THROUGH 80 KTS, WE MISSED A XMISSION TO CLR THE RWY. ONLY XMISSION WE HEARD WAS TO CLR AT INTXN M. WE WERE TOLD BY GND TO CALL TWR UPON ARR AT GATE. DURING ROLLOUTS, TWR CTLRS OCCASIONALLY GIVE INSTRUCTIONS AND ARE EXPECTING ANSWERS WHILE ACFT IS STILL IN A CRITICAL PHASE. IT WOULD BE A MUCH SAFER OP IF A CLRNC TO EXIT A RWY AT A PARTICULAR TXWY IS GIVEN ON FINAL APCH SO PLANS CAN BE MADE TO ACCEPT OR NOT -- IF CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE (YES) OR NOT ACCEPT IF CONDITIONS ARE NOT FAVORABLE.
