Return to the right lane when you can see the entire vehicle you have just passed in your rearview mirror. Use your right turn signal before returning to the right lane.

Drowsiness or unawareness can be brought on by reduced activity and the steady sounds of the wind, engine, and tire hum. This is known as "Highway hypnosis." Highway hypnosis can be combated by drivers continuing to move their eyes while driving and by stopping to stretch every 100 miles, even if they don't feel tired. To be safe, drivers should only drive for a maximum of eight hours in one day.

A sign with a red circle and slash over a symbol indicates that the action represented by the symbol (in this example, a right turn) is not allowed.

When intending to back up, always check behind your vehicle before getting in. Children and small objects are difficult to see from the driver’s seat. While backing, turn your head so you can see through the rear window. Do not depend only on your mirrors or sensors.

Wearing your seat belt is the single most effective thing you can do to reduce your risk of death or injury while driving.

When you see any signs indicating a nearby railroad crossing, you should slow down, look for a train, and be ready to stop. If the red warning lights are flashing or the gate is down, you must stop 15 to 50 feet before the railroad tracks. Do not try to go around the gate.
