General Rules:

1.

Always drive on the left hand side of the road. You may drive on the right hand side of a one-way road when it is safe to do so.

2.

Maintain a safe following distance at all times. A safe following distance for light motor vehicles is at least 2 seconds. For heavy motor vehicles and trucks it is at least 3 seconds. In poor driving conditions these following distances should be increased.

Tip:

To judge your following distance while driving do the following:

Pick a stationary object on the side of the road such as a tree or signpost. As the vehicle ahead of you passes the object start counting by saying "A thousand and one, a thousand and two, etc." (It takes   approximately a second to say "A thousand and one" slowly.) When the vehicle you are driving passes the object note which "Thousand" you are counting and this will give you a good estimate of your following distance.

3.

Ensure that your vehicle's licence is valid and up to date and displayed in a visible position at all times.

4.

Always obey instructions from traffic officers which over rule any traffic signs or rules of the road.
