Each driver of a motor vehicle shall comply with the following rules: (1) (a) He shall at all times keep the vehicle on the right side of the road unless prevented by some sufficient cause. (b) When meeting or being overtaken by other vehicles he shall keep as close as possible to the right side of the road. (2) (a) When overtaking other vehicles, he shall keep to the left or off side of such other vehicle. Overtaking. (b) When being overtaken by other vehicles or when there are other vehicles immediately behind that desire to overtake him, he shall drive as close to the right side of the road as possible so as to allow such other vehicles to pass, and in all cases he shall drive so as to give as much space as possible for the passing of other traffic and shall not speed abreast any other vehicle when such vehicle is overtaking him. (c) He shall not drive so as to overtake other traffic unless he has a clear and unobstructed 118 view of the road ahead and he shall not overtake such other traffic unless he sees that the road ahead is clear for a sufficient distance to enable him to overtake and get back to his proper side before meeting any traffic coming from the opposite direction. (d) He shall not overtake other traffic when rounding a corner or where roads intersect or fork or where the road passes over the brow of a hill or over a humpbacked bridge or in any other circumstances where the driver cannot see sufficiently far ahead to overtake with safety. Crossing and turning in roads. (3) He shall not cross a road or turn in or commence to cross or turn in a road or proceed from one road into another road or drive from a place which is not a road into a road or from a road into a place which is not a road unless he can do so without obstructing any other traffic on the road and for this purpose he shall be held to be obstructing other traffic if he causes risk of accident thereto. (4) (a) When turning from one road into another road to the right he shall keep as close as possible to the right side of each road. (b) When turning from one road into another road to the left he shall drive into the shared center lane on highways and roadways, which are lanes reserved for making left turns (or U turns when they are permitted), but can be used by vehicles traveling in both directions. On the pavement left turn arrows for traffic in one direction, alternate with left turn arrows for traffic coming from the other direction, unless otherwise directed by a police constable on duty.
