Study Notes
Right Turns
- To make a right turn from a highway with two lanes, always turn from the lane nearest the curb or edge of the roadway.
- Ensure the turn begins and ends in the correct lane without swinging wide into other traffic lanes.
Crossing Double Yellow Lines
- It is permissible to cross double yellow lines to pass if your side of the road has a broken line.
- Opposite side's solid line prohibits crossing.
Open Containers and Alcohol
- Possessing or drinking from open containers of alcohol in a motor vehicle is illegal, regardless of whether you are driving.
- Operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol is strictly prohibited.
Driving on Gravel or Dirt Roads
- Traction on gravel or dirt roads is significantly reduced compared to pavement, necessitating lower speeds.
- Increased stopping distance and risk of skidding are factors to consider.
Deep Puddles on the Road
- Avoid deep puddles if possible to prevent skidding; they can create hazardous driving conditions.
- Slippery surfaces like ice or oil should also be avoided.
Emergency Vehicles
- Yield to emergency vehicles with flashing lights by driving to the right edge of the road and stopping until they pass.
- If in an intersection, clear it before stopping.
Flashing Yellow Lights
- A flashing yellow light requires drivers to slow down and proceed with caution at the intersection.
Stop Signs
- A stop sign mandates a complete stop before proceeding when safe.
- Always stop at marked lines or at crosswalks where applicable.
Night Driving

- Maintain awareness of surrounding hazards at all times.
Reducing Skids

Headlight Use
- Dim headlights for oncoming vehicles within 500 feet or when following another vehicle within 300 feet.
Traffic Congestion
- Avoid "rubbernecking" at collisions to prevent additional traffic congestion.
Snow and Ice Removal
- Clear all windows and mirrors of snow, frost, and ice for safety before driving.
Rumble Strips
- Rumble strips alert inattentive drivers through vibrations and sound when they drift from their lane.
Braking on Slippery Surfaces
- Continuous hard braking on ice leads to locked wheels and loss of steering.
Pedestrian Right-of-Way
- Always yield to pedestrians, even when there is no marked crosswalk, by stopping for them to finish crossing.
Collision Risks
- Frequent lane changes to pass other vehicles increase the likelihood of a collision.
Slippery Conditions Warning
- Yellow warning signs indicate slippery conditions when wet, cautioning drivers to slow down.
Safe Passing
- Only pass other vehicles where permitted by signs or markings, avoiding intersections and blind curves.
School and Pedestrian Signs
