• On one-way streets, park on either the right or left side
• Always set your parking brake when you park. Leave the vehicle in gear if it has a manual transmission, or in park if it has an automatic transmission. Check for bicyclists, who often travel on the right-hand side of the travel lanes, near parked cars.
• If you must park on a roadway, park your vehicle as far away from traffic as possible. If there is a curb, park as close to it as you can.
• When you park on a hill, turn your wheels sharply towards the side of the road. NO-PARKING ZONES - ✔✔ Do not park:
• In an intersection.
• On a crosswalk or sidewalk.
• Across a driveway entrance.
• On the left side of a two-way street.
• Alongside a curb that is painted yellow.

• On a bridge.
• Blocking a fire hydrant.
• Blocking the normal traffic flow or creating a hazard to other drivers.
• With your vehicle facing against traffic. parking on a hill -✔✔ Before leaving your parked vehicle:
• Turn your wheels in the proper direction
• Turn off the motor, leaving the vehicle in proper gear;
• Set the emergency/parking brake;
• Remove the keys from the ignition;
• Check your rear view mirror for traffic before stepping out; and Lock it and pocket the keys. Before you drive away from any parking space, be sure to check for traffic and signal. parking on hills - ✔✔ down hill with or without curb=turn wheels to right up hill with curb= turn wheels to left up hill with OUT curb= turn wheels to right parallel parking - ✔✔ 1. Stop even with the vehicle ahead of the parking space about 1½ feet to the left of that vehicle.

2. Turn wheels sharply to the right, and back slowly into the parking space. Be sure the front of your vehicle does not block passing or oncoming traffic.
3. When clear of the front vehicle, turn wheels sharply to the left and continue backing.
4. Turn wheels sharply to the right and pull forward toward the curb. Park in the center of the parking space. DRIVE IN THE PROPER LANE - ✔✔ When driving on a highway with a total of two lanes (one lane in each direction), drive in the right hand lane. You may cross the center line for passing when there are no oncoming vehicles and no solid yellow line. On highways with a total of four or more lanes (two or more lanes in each direction), always keep to the right unless you are

passing slower traffic, letting another driver have room to enter safely, or getting ready to make a legal left turn. PASSING ON HIGHWAYS -✔✔ Use the left lane only to pass another vehicle. You can use the right lane when passing a vehicle that is making a left turn. Never use the shoulder or unpaved part of the highway to pass. Before you pass a vehicle in front of you -✔✔ make sure you are in a safe passing zone. On four-lane highways, check the left lane for traffic by using your left and inside rearview mirrors and briefly looking over your left shoulder. Looking over your left shoulder is important because it allows you to check for"blind spots." "blind spots." -✔✔ the spaces you cannot see with your rearview mirrors. Do not drive in another vehicle's blind spot.

• turn your head to look instead of using ur mirrors truck or bus - ✔✔ Never stay alongside, or immediately behind, a large vehicle. These vehicles have large blind spots and it is hard for their drivers to see you. If you cannot see the truck driver's face in the truck's side mirror, the truck driver cannot see you. It takes longer to pass a truck. After you pass, make sure you can see the cab of the truck in your rearview mirror before reentering the lane. Maintain your speed. Do not slow down once you are in front of the truck. Give plenty of room to the vehicle you just passed - ✔✔ Do not turn back into the right lane until you see the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror. Remember to look over your right shoulder to check your blind spot, and be sure to signal. being passed - ✔✔ If another vehicle begins to pass you, stay in your lane and do not increase your speed. If many vehicles are passing you in the right lane of a multi lane roadway, you are

probably going slower than the rest of the traffic. Unless you will be turning left soon, you should move into the right lane when the way is clear CONTROLLED ACCESS HIGHWAYS - ✔✔ Many highways have controlled access. This means you can enter or leave the highway only where there are entrance or exit ramps. ENTERING THE HIGHWAY - ✔✔ Entrance ramps are short, one-way ramps used to get on the highway. At the end of most entrance ramps is an acceleration lane. Use the ramp and acceleration lane to increase your speed to match the speed of the vehicles on the highway. As you are speeding up, watch for an opening in the highway traffic. Switch on your turn signal, and pull smoothly into the traffic. DO NOT stop at the end of an acceleration lane unless traffic is very heavy and you have to stop. Drivers already on the highway should give you room to enter, but if they don't, DO NOT force your way onto the highway. You must yield the rightof-way to them, even if that means stopping at the end of an acceleration lane. LEAVING THE HIGHWAY - ✔✔ Exit ramps are short, one-way ramps. At the beginning of most exit ramps is a deceleration lane. Make sure you are in the proper lane to leave the highway well in advance of the deceleration lane. Use the deceleration lane and the exit ramp to slow down when leaving the highway. Be sure you obey the speed advisory sign on the exit ramp. Be ready to stop or yield at the end of the ramp. If you miss your exit, DO NOT stop, back up, or try to turn around on the highway. You will have to get off the highway at the next exit and come back to the exit you missed. INTERCHANGES (common:diamond, clover,directional, trumpet) -✔✔ Where two busy highways meet, there may be interchanges with entrance and exit ramps. An interchange can be confusing if you have not driven on it before. A Diverging Diamond Interchange while driving through a DDI, you will travel on the left side of the roadway for a short distance. There are directional signs on all interchanges that can help you determine where you need to go.

EMERGENCIES - ✔✔ If your vehicle breaks down on a highway, make sure other drivers can see you and your vehicle. Many roadways have signs that tell you the CB channel or telephone number to call in an emergency. The cellular number to call in an emergency is *55. If you are having vehicle trouble and have to stop, consider the following:

• If at all possible, get your vehicle off the road and away from traffic.
• Turn on your emergency flashers to show you are having trouble.
• If you cannot get your vehicle off the roadway, try to stop where other drivers have a clear view of your vehicle. Do not stop just over a hill or just around a curve.
• Try to warn other drivers that your vehicle is there. Place emergency flares behind the vehicle. This alerts other drivers to change lanes if necessary.
• Never stand in the roadway. Do not try to change a tire if it means you have to be in a traffic lane. Lift the hood or tie a white cloth to the antenna, side mirror, or door handle to signal an emergency motorcycle - ✔✔ dont share a lane with them.When you are passing, give motorcycles a full lane width. Do not squeeze past these road users. Wait for a clear stretch of road before passing a cyclist in a lane too narrow to share. trucks - ✔✔ Do not enter a roadway in front of a large vehicle. Avoid changing lanes in front of a large vehicle if you are turning off the roadway. A truck or bus has blind spots on each side, in the rear and in the front where an automobile cannot be seen. These blind spots are referred to as the "No-Zone." Do not drive in the No-Zone except when absolutely necessary. You should not drive alongside large vehicles for prolonged periods at any time. Tailgating a truck is also dangerous. Leave any large vehicle a cushion of safety.

trucks part 2 -✔✔ When traveling up or down steep grades, large vehicles must drive slowly in the right lane. Avoid driving your car in the right lane going up or down hills on divided or multi- lane roadways when interacting with large trucks. When you are near truck weigh stations, avoid driving in the right lane so slow- moving trucks can easily merge back onto the roadway.

6. Vehicles carrying hazardous materials must stop at all railroad crossings. Be prepared.
7. Because of their size, large trucks may swing out to the left as the first step in making a right turn. When following a tractor-trailer, observe its turn signals before trying to pass.
8. Tractor-trailers take longer to stop than cars traveling at the same speed. The average passenger car traveling at 55 mph can stop in about 130-140 feet, almost half the length of a football field. A fully loaded tractortrailer may take almost 400 feet to come to a complete stop.
9. Never underestimate the size and speed of an approaching tractortrailer. Because of its large size, a tractor-trailer often appears to be traveling more slowly than its actual speed. sharing road with people -✔✔ pedestrians are required by law to yield to vehicles. In other situations, vehicles are required to yield to pedestrians. Even when you are facing a green light you must yield the right-of-way to all pedestrians in the intersection. Never assume you have the right-ofway. Do not assume pedestrians see you and will stop for you. Do not pass a vehicle that has stopped or slowed down for a pedestrian. You must obey a slower speed limit in a school zone when lights are flashing or children are present. At a school crossing where there is a traffic patrol, stop and yield if a traffic patrol member signals you to do so. The following laws or rules also apply:

• Drivers must always yield the right-of-way to persons who are blind. When a pedestrian is crossing a street or highway guided by a dog or carrying a white cane (or a white cane with a red tip), vehicles must come to a complete stop.
• Drivers must yield when a pedestrian is in a marked or unmarked crosswalk on or approaching their side of the road.

need to make a right turn, slow down and remain behind the cyclist until you are able to turn. If

• As you prepare for a right turn, especially on a red traffic signal, be cautious of pedestrians (or bicyclists) approaching on your right.
• Drivers should not block the crosswalk when stopped at a red traffic signal. Drivers should not cross a sidewalk or crosswalk without first yielding to pedestrians. bikers - ✔✔ Scan carefully for bicycles and mopeds before proceeding through a intersection, giving them the same consideration you would any other vehicle.Be sure to look right and check for wrong-way bicyclists on the road or sidewalk before proceeding.
• On residential streets, especially those with parked cars, travel at or below the speed limit. 59 SHARING THE ROAD WITH MOPEDS AND BICYCLES - ✔✔ • If you are following a bicyclist and you need to make a left turn, yield to oncoming bicyclists unless you are absolutely sure you can make the turn before the cyclist reaches the intersection. • Bicyclists change speed and lane position when encountering bad road conditions, such as manhole covers, diagonal railroad tracks, drain grates, road debris, or in strong winds. Be ready to react.
• When you are passing, give bicycles and mopeds a full lane width. Do not squeeze past these road users. wait for a clear stretch of road before passing a cyclist in a lane too narrow to share.
• A bicycle lane is a portion of a roadway designated by striping to be used by bicycles. You may cross a bicycle lane when turning or when entering or leaving the roadway. You must yield to bicyclists in a bicycle lane. road ragers - ✔✔ Remain calm and do not react with similar behavior.
• Identify the location (for example: intersection, mile marker, direction the vehicle was traveling, etc.).
• Get a physical description of the driver.
• Get a description of the vehicle (approximate year, make, model, color, license plate number, etc.).
• Report the incident to the nearest local authorities as soon as possible.
• If you have a cellular phone, exit the roadway to a safe area and dial *

(or 911 if you are in a metropolitan area). safety tips - ✔✔ seat belt only kids of certain ages may call shotgun keep eyes on road(moving) expect drivers to make mistakes, do not rely on traffic signals how to sit and drive - ✔✔ back straight, move seat close to reach pedals, keep both feet on floor and hands on wheel steering wheel lock -✔✔ DONT Do It it will cause u not to have control of wheel following cars - ✔✔ keep safe distance... three second rule -✔✔ choose obj. near road ahead (ex:sign or cell phone pole.) if car ahead passes it, you count to 3. If you reach obj. before you finish counting.....u are to close to vehicle ahead space behind -✔✔ • Try to find a safe place out of traffic to stop and pick up or let off passengers. • If you want to parallel park and there is traffic coming behind you, put on your turn signal, pull next to the space, and allow vehicles to pass before you park. • When you have to drive so slowly that you slow down other vehicles, pull to the side of the road when it is safe to do so, and let them pass. There are turnout areas on some two-lane roads you could use. Other twolane roads sometimes have passing lanes.

• If you are followed too closely or "tailgated" by another driver, and there is a right lane, move over to the right. If there is no right lane, wait until the road ahead is clear and then reduce speed slowly. This will encourage the tailgater to drive around you. Never slow down quickly to discourage a tailgater. This will only increase your risk of being hit from behind.

space to the side -✔✔ You need space on both sides of your vehicle to have room to turn or change lanes. 66

• Avoid driving next to other vehicles on multi-lane roads. Someone may crowd your lane or try to change lanes and pull into you. Move ahead or drop behind the other vehicle.
• Keep as much space as you can between yourself and oncoming vehicles. On a two-lane road, this means not crowding the center line. In general, it is safest to drive in the center of your lane.
• Make room for vehicles entering on a multi-lane roadway. If there is not a vehicle in the lane next to you, move over a lane.
• Keep extra space between your vehicle and parked vehicles. Someone could step out from a parked vehicle, from between vehicles, or a parked vehicle could pull out.
• Give extra space to pedestrians or bicyclists, especially children. They may move into your path quickly and without warning. Wait until it is safe to pass.
• When possible, take potential hazards one at a time. For example, if you are overtaking a bicycle and an oncoming vehicle is approaching, slow down and let the vehicle pass first so you can give extra room to the bicycle. STOPPING DISTANCE - ✔✔ Your stopping distance equals your reaction distance plus your braking distance. If you are driving fast, are very tired, or if your vehicle has bad brakes, you will need more space to stop your vehicle. The following distance equals your reaction distance plus your vehicle's braking distance at different speeds. The reaction distance is the distance

you travel after you see a danger and before you apply your brakes. You have to be alert to react within one and one-half seconds. The braking distance is the distance you travel after you apply your brakes and before your vehicle comes to a stop. In the chart shown below, the braking distance is for a vehicle with good brakes and tires, in good weather and on a good road. using your horn - ✔✔ only when you have to. horns can distract and cause crashes. horn shouldnt be used out of anger slow poke driving - ✔✔ against law to drive lower than speed limit unless in rain snow etc. carbon monoxide - ✔✔ cars give it off. dont leave motor running in garage or with windows closed when u park dont use heater with windows closed in park night driving - ✔✔ windowa clean, turn head lights on 1/2 hour after sunset and 1/2 till sunrise. use high beam lights if no upcoming vehicle use edgeline as a guide use low bean lights with vehicles in 300 feet head lights - ✔✔ when weather conditions require use of windsheild whipers winter driving - ✔✔ clean snow off car headlights tailights. you should have tires that work well in snow wet pavement -✔✔ slow ur speed and leave distance between u and other cars hyrdroplanning - ✔✔ take foot of accelerator and slow down.

Take your foot off the accelerator, but DO NOT hit the brakes.

• Gently turn your steering wheel in the direction that your rear wheels are sliding.
• Be careful not to brake or turn sharply. Hitting the brakes or jerking the steering wheel will only make the skid worse. STEER INTO THE SKID FOG -✔✔ It is very dangerous to drive in fog. If you must drive in fog, you should: • Reduce your speed.• Be alert and ready to stop.• Keep your headlights on low beam. In fog, you will see less if your lights are on high beam. • If the fog becomes so thick you cannot see, pull off the road and stop. Leave your lights and emergency flashers ON.

9. When the vehicle has slowed and you have control of your vehicle, turn back onto the pavement if the lane is free of traffic. STEERING FAILURE: - ✔✔ If your vehicle does not turn when you turn the wheel:
10. Take your foot off the accelerator.
11. Let your vehicle slow down by itself. Do not hit the brakes until your vehicle has almost stopped or unless you have to.
12. Turn on your emergency flashers. BLOCKED VISION: - ✔✔ If your hood suddenly flies open, your windshield wipers fail, or something else blocks your vision:
13. Roll down the window so you can look around whatever is blocking your view.
