•When two cars approach an intersection not controlled by traffic lights or signs, neither vehicle has right of way.
•The law doesn’t give right of way to anyone. It only states which driver must yield to another
•Virginia law states that when two or more vehicles approach an uncontrolled intersection from different directions at the same time, the driver on the LEFT must YIELD to the driver on the right.
•Yield also means to stop if you cannot merge safely into the flow of traffic

• Check from left to right• Always look to both sides to make sure it’s clear
shopping centers, construction areas, and playgrounds.
• What are the dangers?• Look to left first since those vehicles are closest to
you.• Look to the right, then back to left before you drive
through.

When two cars are approaching each other and signaling to turn left, both vehicles should take the inside path, the lane closest to the center. They will complete the turn by turning in front of each other.
Vehicles turning left must yield to oncoming traffic – unless there is a lead green arrow.
Vehicles entering a roadway from a private road, alley or driveway shall stop and yield right-of-way to traffic on the roadway.Write this slide
Not legal everywhere
Check for signs prohibiting u-turns
In cities, only allowed at intersections
Never make a u-turn on an expressway
Give a left-turn signal, stop, and check for approaching traffic

YieldYield the Right-of-Way the Right-of-Way toto Emergency VehiclesEmergency Vehicles
Vehicles must yield the right-of-way to police, fire, and rescue vehicles using a siren and/or flashing lights.
Pull over to the right edge of the road and STOP until the emergency vehicle has passed.
If traffic is congested and prevents moving to the right edge of the road, adjust lane position and leave a clear path for the emergency vehicle to pass.
On an undivided highway, all traffic must pull over to the edge of the road and allow the emergency vehicle to pass.
DMV p. 15
•When approaching a stopped emergency vehicle, you must change lanes, where reasonable
•If changing lanes is unreasonable or unsafe, you must proceed with caution
•If vehicles do not make a reasonable effort to give the R.O.W., violations can result in court suspension of your driver’s license and demerit points on your driving record

Emergency Vehicles
DMV p. 15
•You may not park within 500 feet of where fire trucks or equipment are stopped answering an alarm
•Never follow any emergency vehicle closer than 500 feet

There have been trains in lots of big movies & shows like The Polar Express, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Back to the Future, Thomas the Train, The Hunger Games, and more. – Which is your favorite movie train and why?– What would it be like to ride on those trains yourself?– What makes trains so fascinating & good storylines
for movies/tv?
Virginia law requires certain vehicles (e.g., school buses, oil tankers, etc.) to stop at all railroad crossings
If you follow one of these “Must STOP Vehicles”, be prepared to stop, since you cannot pass or overtake them at an intersection

Advance warning signs – – a round, yellow sign with a black “ RR” indicates a highway-rail crossing is ahead - be prepared to stop
Pavement markings – – “RR” painted on the pavement - be prepared to stop
Crossbuck signs are like YIELD signs – – drivers must YIELD to trains
• Slow down and be prepared to stop when you see the crossbuck sign.
• A sign below the crossbuck indicates the number of tracks drivers must cross

A car going 55 mph takes about 200 feet to stop.A car going 55 mph takes about 200 feet to stop.
REMEMBERREMEMBER:
A train cannot swerve or stop quickly to avoid a crash.
Trains do not and cannot stop at crossings — Consequently, the vehicle driver is responsible for avoiding the collision.
Remember:
• Don’t drive onto the tracks unless you have enough room on the other side.
• Don’t change gears while crossing.
• Be extra careful at night and in low visibility conditions.• If the gate starts lowering as you are crossing, keep going, don’t stop
and don’t back up.
• Don’t pass other vehicles at the crossing. Write this slide

Railroad Crossing SafetyRailroad Crossing Safety
• Identify all warning signs, signals and protective devices.
• NEVER assume NO train is coming.• LOOK both ways, and LISTEN for any audible
signal (whistle) before you proceed across the tracks.
• When a train is approaching, STOP and let the train pass. CHECK that no other trains are approaching from either direction before you start across.
To drive safely across a railway To drive safely across a railway crossing:crossing:
If you get stuck on the tracks:
Get everyone out — run from the tracks.
Call the police.
If no train is coming, try to push the vehicle off the tracks.
• Trains are not always on schedule.• Since many crossings have 2 or more tracks, a first train can hide a
second one.• It is hard to determine how fast a train is moving.• There are many crossings that have no warning lights or gates.• It is illegal and dangerous to drive around lowered gates.
