EXPLANATION:  

Here are the general safety rules when driving in Texas:

• Seatbelts are required for the drivers and all of the passengers if seatbelt anchorages were part of the original design of the vehicle. The exceptions are only for antique vehicles.  

• The child seat is required for children under 4’9” tall and/or under eight years old. While children eight years old and older must wear seatbelts.  

• Drivers should yield to an emergency vehicle with flashing lights and siren on. Let the emergency vehicles safely pass first.  

• Drivers should slow down to 20 miles per hour or less when seeing a school bus with yellow flashing lights. When seeing a school bus with red flashing lights, drivers should stop whether they are behind the bus or approaching the bus from the front.  

• Pedestrians have the right at uncontrolled intersections (traffic signals don’t present) and a “WALK” signal is active. Even the light changes, pedestrians in the intersection still have the right.

• Slow down when the yellow traffic light is on and stop when the red traffic light is on.

• Motorcyclists have to wear a helmet. This rule is applied to the motorcyclists who are under 20 years old. The rules for motorcyclists are also applied to the bicyclists.
