You may think that rules are no fun, but without rules, how would any team ever win a football game? How would a president be fairly elected? How would God know the exact set of perfect circumstances required for the Cubs to finally win a World Series?

Rules are a necessary thing when it comes to driving, and they ensure that everyone behaves in a certain way so that there is the utmost safety and uniformity out there on the road. (Uniformity isn’t always a good thing, but a dangerous spot like a freeway is hardly a place to start tapping your creative juices.) Follow the rules below, and you will be more likely to live a long, fruitful life. Provided a bear doesn’t maul you. We don’t cover bear mauling on Shmoop.
