Watch for traffic signs, pavement
markings,
-and lines. If you can see a
sign
up ahead that might indicate a
turn
or an intersection, delay your
pass. A broken center line usually
indicates -it’s all right
to pass,
(providing the road ahead
is clear).
Never cross a solid line on.your side
of the lane or a double solid line, even
if the road seems empty of
approaching traffic.

vehicle
you want to. pass isn’t .aware
of-your presence, tap the horn a
couple of times before. passing.

following
a larger vehicle. Also, you
won’t have adequate space if the
vehicle

stops. Keep back a- reasonable
distance.

something between you and moving
vehicles-space, trees, telephone poles,
a private driveway, anything that
removes you
from other trafic.
If visibility is near zero and you must
stop but are unsure whether you are
away
from the road, turn your lights on,
start your hazard warning flashers, and
sound your horn at intervals or when
you hear approaching traffic.
Pass other vehicles in fog only if you
can see far enough ahead to pass safely.
Even then, be prepared to delay your
pass if you suspect the fog is worse up
ahead. If other vehicles try to pass you,
make it easy for them.
