Right-of-Way & Special Driving Conditions
Welcome to Module 3
In this lesson, you will learn one of the most important crash-prevention subjects in driving: Right-of-Way.
Many collisions happen because drivers assume they can go first. Safe drivers know when to proceed, when to yield, and when to stop.
You will also learn how to drive safely in poor weather, roundabouts, and other special conditions.
Key Safety Principles
• Being “right” is less important than being safe.
• Many crashes happen from assumption.
• Weather changes stopping distance.
• Pedestrians are vulnerable road users.
• Patience prevents collisions.
