PASSING PARKED VEHICLES When driving past parked vehicles, watch for vehicles that may pull out in front of you. Look for clues; such as a person in the driver’s seat, exhaust coming from a tailpipe, illuminated brake lights , a flashing turn signal, illuminated backup lights, or at parallel parking areas, a vehicle’s front wheels turning out. Watch for a vehicle door being opened in front of you. Also, watch for pedestrians or bicyclists trying to cross the road between parked vehicles.PASSING VEHICLES IN SLOW-MOVING TRAFFIC LANES In some areas with a long or steep grade, a slow-moving traffic lane may be provided to allow vehicles that are unable to maintain the speed limit to travel without blocking traffic. These slower-moving vehicles should move into the designated traffic lane, allowing other vehicles to pass them in the second lane.FREEWAY DRIVING Freeways are our safest roads. Traffic flows in the same direction. There are no stops or intersections. Pedestrians, small motorcycles of 124 cc or less, mopeds, bicycles, all-terrain vehicles, and slow-moving vehicles are not allowed on freeways. An entrance ramp allows traffic to enter the freeway. Often, an exit ramp will be next to the entrance ramp. Look for “Do Not Enter” and “Wrong Way” signs and speed limit signs. The entrance ramp usually merges into an acceleration lane allowing you to increase your speed to match freeway traffic speed. Signal and check for freeway traffic by using the vehicle’s rearview and side-view mirrors and quick glances over your shoulder. Choose a safe space to enter and then merge into traffic. Traffic on the freeway has the right-of-way. Do not count on other drivers to let you in.
