Observe speed limits

• Follow the posted speed.
• Drive to conditions for bad weather, congestion and construction.

Keep right

• Signs that say, “Left lane for passing only” identifies a pass-only lane.
• After you pass someone, move into the right lane once you've safely cleared the vehicle.
• Impeding the flow of traffic in the left lane is punishable by a fine of up to $200.

Move over or slow down

• Look out for stopped emergency vehicles with flashing lights.
• Move a lane away from the emergency vehicle.
• Slow down 20 mph below the posted speed limit if you are unable to safely move over.
• Failure to comply could result in a fine of up to $200.

Give yourself a break

• Don’t drive drowsy.
• Get plenty of rest before your trip.
• Recognize fatigue warning signs such as yawning, tired eyes, and lane drifting.
• Get out of your vehicle and stretch your legs every two hours.
• Rest for 15-20 minutes during each stop.
• Avoid driving between midnight and 6 a.m.
• Take a break at a safety rest area or travel information center.

Share the road with large trucks

• Never cut in front of a truck.
• Don’t follow too closely. Trucks require more time to stop because they can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds.
• Leave at least four car lengths between the back of your car and the front of a truck as you pass.
• Avoid the four large blind spots.
• If you can't see the driver in the truck's side mirror, the driver can't see you.
