    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.

    lights. Make slow, deliberate U-

    turns. Maintain proper speeds

    around roadway crashes.
