PART VI.
Rules of the Road.
1916, ch. 687. 1918, ch. 85, sec. 163.
163. All vehicles, motor, horse-drawn or otherwise, when being
driven upon the highways of this State, upon meeting others shall turn
to the right of the center of the highway so as to pass without interfer-
ence, and in rounding curves shall keep as far to the right of the road
as reasonably possible; and any vehicle overtaking another going in
the same direction shall pass to the left of the vehicle so overtaken,
provided the way ahead is clear of approaching traffic, and that no vehi-
cle shall pass another from the rear at the top or near the top of a hill
or on a curve where the view ahead is in anywise obstructed or while
the vehicle ahead is crossing an intersecting highway; any vehicle so
overtaken shall promptly, upon signal, turn as far as reasonably possible
to the right in order to allow free passage on the left. At the inter-
section of public highways all vehicles shall keep to the right of the
center of such highways, and close to the right-hand side of the road
when turning to the right, and pass to the right of the center of such
intersection when turning to the left. Slow moving vehicles shall at
all times keep as close to the right-hand side of the highway as prac-
ticable.
All vehicles about to turn from the road upon which they are travel-
ing into any intersecting road shall gradually reduce their speed to a
point not exceeding twelve miles an hour for a distance of not less than
twenty-five feet before beginning to make such turn, and where the
view of the intersecting road is obstructed, preserve such reduced rates
of speed until the turn has been completed.
All vehicles shall have the right of way over other vehicles approach-
ing at intersecting roads from the left, and shall give right of way to
those approaching from the right.
All vehicles not in motion shall stand with their right side as near
the right-hand side of the highway as practicable, except in city streets
where traffic is permitted to move in one direction only.
All vehicles carrying poles or other objects which project more than
five feet from the rear end of such vehicles shall during the period of
from one-half hour after sunset to one-half hour before sunrise carry a
red light at or near the end of the pole or other object so projecting.
During the period of from one-half hour before sunrise to one-half
hour after sunset such vehicles shall carry a red flag at or near the end
of the pole or other object so projecting.
