Rules of the road

Rules of the road  and  driving etiquette  are the general practices and procedures that road users are required to follow. These rules usually apply to all road users, though they are of special importance to  motorists  and  cyclists . These rules govern interactions between vehicles and with  pedestrians . The basic traffic rules are defined by an international treaty under the authority of the United Nations, the 1968  Vienna Convention on Road Traffic . Not all countries are signatory to the convention and, even among signatories, local variations in practice may be found. There are also unwritten local rules of the road, which are generally understood by local drivers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic
