Why You Should Obey Traffic Law

By Tarek Aue

You and other drivers like you are protected by traffic law. Sometimes these laws can irritate some drivers, but they are for your own safety. Some steps are given below to follow these laws.

First of all you should go through state drivers handbook. You will get this booklet just before taking drivers test. You can refresh your memory by reading this book regarding traffic laws. You should follow sample tests for memorizing common rules.

The most common law that is broken by each and every driver, whether they get caught or not, is the speeding law. Speeding is breaking the law and if the driver is caught, they can be issued a warning or speeding ticket. If the driver was going over 20 miles an hour over the limit, their license can be suspended. In order to get them back, they will have to pay a hefty fine and probably go to traffic school. Every time a driver gets caught speeding, it adds points on their license. So many points and they will take away the license and the right to drive.

You should give attention to signs. Generally you're accustomed to your regular routes so that you just don't remember the traffic signs. When you fail to follow traffic signal instructions it can earn you a ticket. You should slow down as per the traffic signal and always give attention to speed limit. Get familiar to traffic signals. You must note others if they are driving erratically. Defensive driving is always recommended.

When pedestrians are walking on the road, they have the right of way in most states and cities. They are not really paying attention to the drivers in the cars, so it is the driver's responsibility to take care when around them. Most traffic laws vary from state to state, so if a driver moves to a different area; it is their responsibility to brush up on the new laws.

There are laws in the way drivers drive, but there are also laws on the way they maintain their vehicles. All lights should be in working order, the windshield should not be broken and exhaust systems should be up to date and in working order. If the car only drives slow, the car should be kept in areas where the speed limit does not exceed the speed the car can be driven. For instance, older cars and trucks were not designed to go fast. Therefore, they should not be taken on the interstate.

One of the worst violations a driver can have is drunk driving. That offense combined with reckless driving can cause a driver to loose their driving privileges, sometimes for life. This is often the reason for accidents and collisions on the road. Traffic laws were designed to keep everyone on the road safe while they are getting to their destination. - 21392
