The Department of Licensing’s Driver Guide will help you understand the rules of the road and give you valuable information about safe and responsible driving. Remember, your success in earning a driver license and your safety out on our highways depend on your understanding of the information in this book. I encourage you to study carefully to help ensure a lifetime of safe driving. Christine Gregoire GovernorGovernor Christine Gregoire photoOffice of the Governor letterheadGovernor Christine Gregoire signature ii Message From The Director Welcome to driving in Washington. I am pleased to present the Washington Driver Guide for current and future drivers on Washington roads. At the Department of Licensing, our mission is to work together for a safer Washington. One way we can accomplish this is through education and careful licensing of the nearly five million drivers sharing our streets and highways. Driving is a vital part of life, yet owning a vehicle and holding a driver license are privileges that require responsibility. This manual provides a summary of the laws, rules, and techniques that apply to every person who drives a vehicle in Washington State. Please remember to buckle up, obey speed laws, and never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Respect for traffic laws and respect for other drivers will keep us all safe on the road.
