Overtake other vehicles onlyon the left. Avoid blocking passing lanes. Yield to faster traffic by mov-
ing to the right. Keep to the right as much as
possible. Maintain appropriate follow-
ing distance. Provide appropriate distance
when cutting in after passing
vehicles. Use headlights in cloudy,
rainy, low light conditions. Yield to pedestrians. Come to a complete stop at
stop signs, etc. Stop for red traffic lights. Approach intersections and
pedestrians at slow speeds. Follow right-of-way rules at
four-way stops. Drive below the posted speed
limit when conditions warrant.
Drive at slower speeds inconstruction zones.
Maintain speeds appropriatefor conditions.
Use vehicle turn signals forturns and lane changes.
Make eye contact and signalintention where needed.
Acknowledge intention of oth-ers.
Use your horn sparingly. Avoid unnecessary use ofhigh beam headlights.
Yield and move to the rightfor emergency vehicles.
Refrain from ashing head-
lights. Make slow, deliberate U-
turns. Maintain proper speeds
around roadway crashes.
