Keep to the Right

Never drive on the left side of the road when:

1. Pavement markings or signs prohibit driving on the left (a “No Passing Zone” or solid lane lines)
2. There are two or more traffic lanes in each direction
3. Within 100 feet of or crossing an intersection or railroad crossing
4. On a hill, curve, or any other place where vision is limited
5. Within 100 feet of a bridge, viaduct, or tunnel

Always keep to the right side of the road except when:

1. Passing another vehicle on a two- or three-lane street
2. Driving on a one-way street
3. The right side of the road is blocked

Turning

Turning a corner appears to be a simple operation. However, many crashes and confusion in traffic are caused by drivers who do not turn properly.

Refer to the diagrams showing the correct method of making right and left turns. There are seven steps in making a safe turn.
1. Decide before you get to the turning point. Never make a last minute turn; it is dangerous.
2. Look behind and to both sides to see where other vehicles are before you change lanes.
3. Move into the proper lane as soon as possible. The faster the traffic is moving, the sooner you should move into the proper lane. If you cannot get into the proper lane within one-half block before turning, do not turn, and continue straight ahead.
4. Give the proper turn signal at least 100 feet before you turn. If using a hand signal, hold the signal until you are close enough to the intersection for others to know your intention. Do not hold the signal while making the turn, you need both hands on the wheel.
5. Slow down to a reasonable turning speed prior to making the turn. Don’t use the brake or clutch while turning.
6. To properly execute the turn, stay in the proper turn lane at all times. Make the turn correctly. This will be easy if you are in the proper lane and proceeding slowly enough at the time you begin to turn.
7. Finish the turn in the proper lane.

If you are driving on a single or two lane road that intersects with a divided road or road with three (3) or more lanes, you must yield the right-of-way to vehicles traveling on the divided or three (3) or more lane road. (Page 23 – Texas Driver Handbook)

Yield Right-of-Way to Emergency Vehicles

You must yield the right-of-way to police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and other emergency vehicles sounding a siren, bell, or flashing red light. If traffic allows, pull to the right edge of the road and stop. If you are unable to pull over to the right, slow down and leave a clear path for the emergency vehicle.

1. You are not allowed to follow within 500 feet of a fire truck answering an alarm or an ambulance when the flashing red lights are on.
2. Do not drive or park on the street where the fire truck has answered an alarm.
3. Do not park in a location that interferes with the arrival or departure of an ambulance to or from the scene of an emergency.
