Today is Tuesday, normally a great day. Since it's such a great day, I'd like to introduce you to the most important rule on the road: the right of way rule. It says who gets to go before the other. However, many drivers don't always keep it. Here is an article of mine explaining this issue:
Yielding Mistakes That Yield Failure On The DMV Driving Test
Yielding, or giving right of way, keeps the roads safe. Without that, chaos will rule the road and driving will be very unsafe. Each road has very specific rules about right of way and yielding. Road signs also indicate who should go first and who should wait. However, some drivers don't know about those rules and just drive in any way they like. During a driving test, such driving mistakes will lead to a failure in no-time.
Lane changes pose the greatest threat for right of way. Many driving students who want to change lanes take a short look in the mirror and move their car. Even if they see behind them a very fast car, they still move to the next lane. This is a clear violation of the right of way rules, and an examiner can mark that as a dangerous maneuver, a mark which will put an end to the test.
Intersections with stop signs are also places where right of way violations occur in masses. This is especially true to all way stop signs. Some student drivers don't notice other drivers or the order of arrival, and just get in the intersection when they feel like it. Doing this is not only dangerous, but will likely get the student a failing mark on the score sheet.
Yield signs are also widely ignored among driving students. This sign just means that cars should give the right of way to cars on the cross road. However, many driving students ignore this sign and don't take it into consideration when they decide to enter the intersection. The result is often deadly. During a driving test, the result is failure.
Traffic lights also give an headache to driving students with yield laws. In some places, left turns are not done directly, but cars have to enter the intersection and wait for oncoming traffic to clear. Some driving students don't wait and make their turn immediately as the light turns green. This habit is highly illegal and risky, and the examiner is not going to like it.
Yielding to other cars is very important when driving, and so is the studying of the right of way laws for the driving test. The best way to practice for the driving test is with a guide that shows everything a student needs for the test. A guide like this can get the driving student to the desired license easily.
Now go out on the road and practice your right of way rules. You have no idea how important they are.
