– Leave the vehicle in the lowest gear if it has a manual transmission, or in “park” if it has an automatic transmission. – Your vehicle should still be left in the lowest gear or in “park”. – If parked on a rural highway, you must leave at least 15 feet of road width for other traffic to pass your vehicle.

Uphill: When headed uphill at a curb, turn the front wheels away from the curb and let your vehicle roll backwards slowly until the rear part of the front wheel rests against the curb using it as a block. Downhill: When you stop your car headed downhill, turn your front wheels toward the curb.

In order to protect yourself and others in a parking lot, you should:

1. Enter your space by backing up whenever possible so that you’ll have an easier time when you leave the space.
2. Drive in the center of your lane and park in the center of your space to make it easier for other people to see you and navigate the lot.

Stop your vehicle when its front bumper is approximately half of the way past the parking space before the one you plan to park in. Turn your wheel towards the parking space and slowly begin to drive your car into the space.

First of all, to park facing traffic requires one to drive on the wrong side of the road, which is illegal unless overtaking another vehicle or passing an obstruction. Therefore, you would have to pull your vehicle substantially out of the space and into the traffic lane before being able to see oncoming traffic.

If it’s your yard, you can put whatever sign you please up. (Think things like political signs and such.) If you want to put up a no parking sign, unless there is a city ordinance against signs (some have that), then you won’t be breaking any laws doing so.

A driveway is a private road. My suburban residential road has over 100 drop curb drives. These are not all road junctions.

1 : an act of joining : the state of being joined. 2a : a place or point of meeting. b : an intersection of roads especially where one terminates. c : a point (as in a thermocouple) at which dissimilar metals make contact.

noun. a road junction in which one road joins another at right angles but does not cross it.

Often found in busier areas, controlled junctions use traffic lights to dictate the flow of traffic. Busy controlled junctions can often feature multiple lanes at the light and often have a cycle waiting area just before the lights.

Closed T Junctions – If your view is closed, then stop at the give way sign and evaluate the new road. Stop means Stop! Once you have checked it is safe to proceed, then you may do so. Your wheels must stop turning for it to be a stop – not just moving very slowly, this will not do.

Box junctions. You MUST NOT enter the box until your exit road or lane is clear. However, you may enter the box and wait when you want to turn right, and are only stopped from doing so by oncoming traffic, or by other vehicles waiting to turn right.

These have criss-cross yellow lines painted on the road (see ‘Road markings’). You MUST NOT enter the box until your exit road or lane is clear. However, you may enter the box and wait when you want to turn right, and are only stopped from doing so by oncoming traffic, or by other vehicles waiting to turn right.

What should you do if there’s oncoming traffic? Explanation: You can move into a box junction as long as your exit road is clear. You can stop and wait in the junction when you want to turn right and have to wait for a gap in the oncoming traffic.

You may have to pull forward slowly until you can see up and down the road. Be aware that the traffic approaching the junction can’t see you either. If you don’t know that it’s clear, don’t go.

Turning right with a filter light You do not need to wait for the arrow to light before turning; as long as you have a green light you can turn when there’s a safe gap. If the filter arrow lights, and you’re sure the traffic is stopping, then you may turn.

At an intersection with both a stop and give way sign, drivers arriving at the intersection must give way to all vehicles on the road before giving way to each other. You must give way to vehicles turning right across your path if you are facing a give way sign.

1. Come to a Complete Stop. Whenever you approach a red light, you should always come to a full and complete stop. Even if you can see that there is no oncoming traffic and you could turn, the law requires you to stop and look.

Before you turn right on red, there are three critical steps to make sure you are doing it right and staying safe.

• Always stop behind the white line. At every intersection, there is a white line.
• Take time to observe.
• Proceed with caution.

FLASHING RED—A flashing red signal light means exactly the same as a stop sign: STOP! After stopping, proceed when safe and observe the right-of-way rules. YELLOW ARROW—A lighted red arrow is about to appear. Stop if you are not already in the intersection.
