Always sound your horn, actuate your turn signals, and exercise caution when passing other vehicles going in the same direction. Never try to pass another vehicle going in the same direction at street intersections, on curves, or when going up or down a hill.
At street intersections give the right-of-way. Do not presume you have the right-of-way, as the other driver may not know it is your turn.
Always signal when preparing to stop, turn or pass.
All traffic signs, including those used for the control of traffic at intersections, should be obeyed promptly. SLOW DOWN signs near schools and CAUTION signs at railroad crossings should always be observed and your actions governed accordingly.
When intending to turn, signal at least 30.5 m (100 ft) before reaching the turning point. If turning across an intersection, move over to the centerline of the street (unless local rules require otherwise). Slow down when entering the intersection and turn carefully.
Never anticipate a traffic light. When a change is indicated from GO to STOP (or vice versa) in the traffic control systems at intersections, slow down and wait for the light to change. Never run through a yellow or red traffic light.
While turning either right or left, watch for pedestrians, animals, as well as vehicles.
Do not leave the curb or parking area without signaling. Be sure your way is clear to enter moving traffic. A moving line of traffic always has the right-of-way.
Be sure your license plate is installed in the position specified by law and is clearly visible at all times. Keep the plate clean.
Ride at a safe speed that is consistent with the type of highway you are on. Pay strict attention to whether the road is dry, oily, icy or wet.
Watch for debris such as leaves or loose gravel.
Weather and traffic conditions on the highway dictate adjusting your speed and driving habits accordingly.
