law. It makes it illegal to drive
in a manner to endanger, or be
likely to endanger, any person
or property.
The law on crossing the cen
ter line on highways also was
changed. The new law makes it
illegal to cross the center line
when approaching the crest of
a grade or a curve if your view
of the road ahead is obstructed
a distance which would be haz
ardous if another vehicle should
approach from the opposite dir-1
ection.
Previously, the law made It
illegal to cross the center line
if you wore within 503 feet of
any hillcrest or curve which
blocked your view of the road
ahead
A driver's responsbility when
making a left turn to enter a
private road or driveway also
has been clarified by new leg
islation. Beginning August 22.
the Division says a driver pre
paring to take this action must
signal for a left turn and yield
right-of-way to any vehicle ap
proaching from the opposite dir
ection if it Is close enough to
constitute an immediate hazard.
The state's "U" turn law also
was amended to make it illeg
al to make a ' U ' turn on the
open highway where the driver
cannot see the road for at least
,000 feet in either direction. It
also remains illegal to make
such a turn on any curve or up
on the approach to or near the
crest of a grade
In cities, it remains illegal to
make a "U turn between inter
sections and, under the new law,
it also becomes illegal to make
such a turn within a city where
the driver cannot see the road
for at least 500 feet in either
direction. (Such turns also may
be prohibited at any location by
official signs).
There's also a new law about
towing house trailers on high
ways. It makes it unlawful for
a driver to tow a house trailer
containing passengers.
, Still another law does not ap
ply strictly to drivers, but to use
of the slow-moving vehicle em
blem first approved by the 1967
Legislature. The law was a
mended this year to make it il
legal to use the emblem in any
way except on the type of ve
hicle specified by law that
is, on a vehicle designed for
customary use at speeds of less
than 25 miles per hour,
Two new laws relate to truck
drivers. One permits a maximum
speed of 60 miles per hour on
Interstate highways which are
posted for higher passenger car
speeds than the 55 miles per
hour designated speed on the
open highway. On non-Inter
state highways, the truck speed
win remain at 50 miles per hour.
