A circular intersection where traffic moves around a center island, usually counterclockwise in the U.S.
重要性： You usually slow down, yield to traffic already inside, then enter when there is a safe gap.
示例： If a car is already coming around from your left, wait before entering.
Two settings for your headlights. Low beams are the normal setting: aimed down and short, so they light the road without shining into other drivers' eyes. High beams — often called 'brights' — are much stronger and aimed further down the road. Most cars switch between them with the same stalk you use for the turn signal, and a blue symbol appears on the dashboard when high beams are on.
重要性： Brighter is not the same as clearer. In rain, snow, or fog, high beams reflect off the water and snow in the air and bounce straight back at you — you get a bright white wall instead of a longer view. Low beams are the correct choice in bad weather precisely because they are dimmer and aimed down, under the glare. High beams also blind oncoming drivers and the driver you are following, which is why every state requires you to dim them near other traffic.
示例： Use high beams on a dark, open road with no one around. Switch back to low beams as soon as you see oncoming headlights, when you come up behind another car, and whenever it is raining, snowing, or foggy. Your state sets the exact distance at which you must dim — check your handbook for the number.
A raised part of the road that makes drivers slow down.
重要性： Going too fast over one can damage the car, surprise passengers, or make you lose control.
示例： In a parking lot, brake before the bump, then roll over it slowly.
Parking in line with the curb, usually between two cars, with your vehicle facing the same direction as traffic.
重要性： The DMV may ask about curb distance, wheel direction on hills, and safe backing.
示例： Signal, pull beside the front car, back in slowly, then straighten near the curb.
An area beside or behind your car that mirrors may not show clearly.
重要性： A car, motorcycle, or bicyclist can hide there, so you need a quick shoulder check.
示例： Before changing lanes, check mirrors, signal, then glance over your shoulder.
The rule for who should go first when drivers, pedestrians, or bicyclists might cross paths.
重要性： Many crashes happen when someone assumes they can go first. When unsure, slow down and yield.
示例： At a four-way stop, the driver who stopped first usually goes first.
