[edit] The right side of the road.
…is the right; the other side is obviously wrong.
- Sort of, because 'left' used to mean wrong. But traffic engineers are continually debating which side is better. "My right-hand drive car is better than your left-hand drive car; you can shift with your left. Plus, I can see oncoming traffic with my stronger right eye" etc. —Last Avenue [talk | contributions] 01:14, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KRETP in california
I just looked at the CVC and it appears that california actually requires all vehicles to stay in the right lane except to pass or to make a left turn. 64.81.53.207 15:58, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Sec. 21654 seems to imply that one is only required to use the rightmost lane if one is traveling slower than the flow of traffic (e.g. a tractor or marginally-able vehicle). The (rare) occurrence of explicit signage stating "Keep right except to pass" instead of the more typical "slow traffic keep right" implies that KRETP is an exception to the rule, only applicable where posted. (An example of such signage is on CA-20 west of CA-16, where there is a passing lane on a winding undivided road. Speight 20:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merging right-of-way and priority
These sections are very similar and contain some redundant info. I recommend merging them. Speight 20:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Done, though some cleanup needed. EdC 06:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Insurance
I just read the insurance section. Wisconsin does not require drivers to carry insurance if they meet certain financial responsibility requirements. We should change the language to reflect that. Monkeythumpa 22:54, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] U.S. state-specific practices
I added a short description and link to the lane splitting article. Monkeythumpa 22:54, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
