Driving in the United States must be aware of the traffic rules

【-Feature 】 driving on the road, the first thing, make sure that you understand the rules of the road. In the United States, the transport rule is not developed by the Federal Government, the cantons and the respective Colombia SAR. In addition, the traffic rules, County, town, district and municipal governments also perform local rules, but the general rule or similar, all vehicles are equipped with management DMV traffic rules booklet, you can get it here.

Simple finishing United States traffic rules:

1. pedestrians and vehicles are right away. United States Government will give priority to pedestrians and cars have as the basic principles of traffic rules. Pedestrians walk whenever a crosswalk, all size vehicles must stop to give way. Many car drivers hit pedestrians to cross the street, often kindly stopped, waved, ask them first.

2. always seatbelts. Individual State requirements for the driver and the driver, passengers wear seat belts, but now many States more rigorous, require all passenger cars for passengers to wear a seat belt, or is found to be punished. For example, if a driver does not have a California informed the rear seat passenger had to wear a seat belt, if the police stop checked, drivers and passengers must be punished, a fine of up to $ 200.

3. in the United States, in the event of an accident, the law is always better to pedestrians. Most of the city also provides that the car only when necessary to Horn, and shall not be used for driving fast cars honking. Moreover in most cities allowed Horn, if permitted, only when necessary — for example, to cross the road, maybe do not know if he stopped you way people shown in the warning. You will not be able to drive some traffic fast and Horn.

4. drive slowly walking to school. Drivers on the street to see the yellow school bus shuttle students should be cautious, if school bus stop and the driver must stop to allow children to cross the street.

5. the United States legal provisions, 12 years of age and children under 12 years of age to sit in the back seat, but 4 years stay free of charge for infants and young children to use special equipment or safety seat seats. This is because children with relatively soft, danger emergency brake, vulnerable to even greater impact.

6. change line to beat the traffic light. Drivers not only turning to fight signal, converts it to signal lane. This means that if you're a wide road against the far right lane, you must first call out to the left of the signal, you can enter the left side of the line or closest to the vehicle in the opposite direction.

7. never can jiujia. United States of drunken problem is serious, such as the recent Palestinian Lisa Hilton is result of jiujia in prison. Drink and drive out of accidents than other causes of accidents. It is said that out of every five people in the United States, three in his life, will encounter the large and small drink and drive. The cantons for drink driving very severe punishment, in addition to the fine points, on the situation but also in prison. You may also be heard DUI Law, "the Driving under influence of drugs or alcohol", the regulations prohibit the use of drugs that cause be sober drugs and alcohol, driving, caught, the punishment is also very strict. Many United States person go to the bar in the habit of drinking and chatting, so traffic departments suggested that it would be good to have someone stay sober to driving. In addition, if you really drink too much, some bars also provide a taxi to take you home.

8. see or hear police cars, fire engines, ambulances of the lighting and sound, be sure to pull over. I heard the whistle like a huge warning sound, or see the police car or truck shining red, motorists must drive to the right to stop. Even drivers enjoy front row of green, he should stop letting the police car or truck to safely pass.

9. on a busy highway, for example, in the United States as the Expressway and the Speedway on non-stop. If you are experiencing problems or would like to consult the map to get the car drove into the lane. Car usually go very fast, a car suddenly stopped vehicles is dangerous. Followed by the drivers can not be timely notice that the vehicle is stopped, and so find that time and distance have been too close, can not be timely prevention of an accident.

10. stop when you want to read the signs. Each city parking rules more or less are slightly different. These rules as in the same city in different regions, different time of day and different days of the week, have changed. Often, in the middle of the road, you will see a section of the solid and dashed lines. Closest to the drivers of the solid line, indicated you over the front of the car not safe; if it is near the driver's line is dashed lines, you can have more meaning. There are also often along the highway shall not overtake or overtaking, flags, care should be taken to draw your attention to these rules. In double-lane highway, from the left on the overtaking lane.

11. evening drive must turn up the lights. The rules on vehicle lights, around the world. However, in the United States, night drive, whether in urban areas, the headlamps must be lit--front headlight.

Last alert drivers, the United States on the perpetrators of violations of traffic rules to implement an effective approach, it is worth learning. In Los Angeles, in violation of traffic rules, the police first salute, and then correct the violation, fill out a single violation, require the offender to court within the deadline to pay the security deposit. Court to the offender to provide three options, one of which is to the offender school 8 hours traffic rules; then is a fine for violation of the delivery record; then pay security deposit, pending court ruling, or pardoned, was sentenced to pay fines or. The offender school day, morning classes by police staff, explaining the traffic rules and regulations, the showing of the traffic accident recording videos. After the end of the afternoon, participants issued certificates. The certificate to the Court, in respect of rescindable violation Sin nor make illegal logging. Such a violation of the school year can only last, that is, the year the second violation of traffic rules won't be forgiven, but must be subject to fines and other penalties? traffic safety is most important to know
