    Study Notes

    Traffic Signs and Right of Way

    • When approaching an intersection with a yellow light, try to stop before the intersection if possible.
    • Passing on the right of another car by crossing a solid line is illegal, except when the road is specifically marked for passing.

    Traffic Laws

    • In Michigan, the speed limit in a rural area is 55 mph, unless otherwise posted.
    • The speed limit in a business district is 25 mph, unless otherwise posted.
    • The speed limit in a residential area is 25 mph, unless otherwise posted.

    Yielding and Stopping

    • When an intersection has only a stop sign with no stop lines or crosswalk lines, you must stop before entering the intersection.
    • At an intersection controlled by a stop sign with a sidewalk but no crosswalk lines, you must stop before the sidewalk.
    • You should stop your vehicle at an intersection which has a stop sign and a stop line.

    Right of Way

    • When two vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection at the same time, the driver on the right has the right of way.
    • Yielding the right of way means letting others go first, and you must follow this rule to prevent crashes.

    Emergency Vehicles

    • When approaching an emergency vehicle with lights flashing on the side of the road, you should slow down or move over to give them space.
    • On an expressway, the "Move Over Law" requires drivers to slow down and move over for an emergency vehicle with lights flashing.

    Zero Tolerance Law

    • In Michigan, it is illegal for anyone under 21 to use alcohol while operating a motor vehicle.
    • The Implied Consent Law means that you have given your consent to be tested for alcohol if you are stopped by the police while driving.
