Basic Rules !!

Here Are Some Of The Basic Rules One Needs To Follow While Driving On Roads!!

• Keep on your left, allowing the vehicles from the opposite direction to pass.
• Give way to traffic on your right, especially at road junctions and round abouts.
• While turning either left or right, give way to vehicles going straight.
• While turning left, keep to the left side and turn close to the left side of the road to which you enter.
• Slow down at the junctions, intersections and pedestrian crossings. Also slow down near school zones, temple areas etc., where a lot of pedestrians and vehicle traffic move. Give signals before you make any manoeuvre, indicating your intention, so that the other road users can adjust accordingly.
• Always use a helmet if on a two-wheeler and always check that the strap is fixed properly.
• Stick to the given speed limit and remember that speed limit is related to the traffic condition.
• Keep enough distance from the vehicle ahead to avoid collision.
• Yellow lines should not be crossed under any condition.
• At junctions or intersections, never park the vehicle beyond the stop line.
• At pedestrian crossings always remember that the pedestrian has the right of way.
• At the signal, do not stop your vehicle on the Pedestrian Crossing.
• Two-wheelers are meant only for two. Third person is not allowed, even children.
• Do not start your vehicle on the amber light. Wait for the light to turn green.
• Overtake only from the right side of a vehicle. Never overtake on bridges, narrow roads, junctions, school zones and pedestrian crossings.
• Do not drive in a zig-zag manner.
