Study Notes
Roadway Markings and Signs
- A solid yellow line indicates the left edge of pavement on a four-lane divided roadway or a one-way road.
- A single solid white line at an intersection signifies the point where motorists must stop for traffic signals or signs.
Rumble Strips
- Rumble strips are indented elements on the roadway installed to alert drowsy or inattentive drivers by providing vibration and sound.
- They are typically found on paved shoulders, near center lines, and in traffic lanes approaching stop signs.
Right-of-Way Rules
- At an uncontrolled T-intersection, the vehicle on the continuing street does not have the right-of-way and must yield to the vehicle on the terminating street.
- On a steep mountain road where two vehicles are unable to pass, the vehicle traveling uphill has the right-of-way.
Overtaking Safety
- When overtaking another vehicle, it is crucial to pass on the left and only return to the lane when the way is clear.
Roundabout Navigation
- In a modern roundabout, drivers must yield to vehicles and cyclists already circulating before entering.
- Always approach and enter the roundabout to the right of the central island.
Animal Encounters
- When an animal unexpectedly runs in front of a vehicle, focus on maintaining vehicle control rather than swerving.
Acceleration Lane
- Increase speed as you enter the acceleration lane to match the flow of traffic in the through lanes.
Passing Regulations
