1 Standard Referencing Points Referencing Points: Provide visual cues to establish vehicle position. Relate part of the vehicle to some part of the roadway. Allow the driver to determine proper placement within a lane. Allow for reduced-risk lane positions.

14 Lane Position # 2 VEHICLE IS 3-6 INCHES AWAY FROM LINE TO THE LEFTVEHICLE IS 3-6 INCHES AWAY FROM LINE TO THE LEFT T – 2.50 Topic 5 Lesson 3 3-6 INCHES Lane Position TWO ( LP 2 )

15 Lane Position # 2 Your lane position #2 reference point is about 1 foot from left side (it may be the crease between the left fender and hood of the vehicle) to the curb. T – 2.51 Topic 5 Lesson 3 Lane Position TWO (LP 2) 3-6 INCHES 6 FEET

16 Lane Position # 3 CAR IS POSITIONED 3-6 INCHES AWAY FROM EDGE OR LINE TO THE RIGHT T – 2.52 Topic 5 Lesson 3 3-6 INCHES Lane Position THREE ( LP 3 )

17 Lane Position # 3 Your lane position #3 reference point is through the center of your hood to the right edge of the roadway. T – 2.53 Topic 5 Lesson 3 Lane Position THREE (LP 3) (LP 3) 3-6 INCHES 6 FEET Reference point Line of Sight

18 Lane Positions LP 1 Position 2 is near the lane line to your left and is used when there is a restriction to your path of travel or your line of sight and you cannot move to the adjacent lane. T – 2.54 Topic 5 Lesson 3 Moving from Lane Position ONE to TWO LP 2 OBSTACLE

19 Lane Positions Position 3 is near the lane line to your right and is used when there is a restriction to your path of travel or line of sight and you cannot move out of the lane. T – 2.55 Topic 5 Lesson 3 Moving from Lane Position ONE to THREE LP 1 LP 3 OBSTACLE

20 Possible Lane Positions The width of the lane allows drivers to make lane position adjustments to minimize risk and create more space between their car and problem situations. T – 2.56 Topic 5 Lesson 3 Lane Positions – 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 LP 3 LP 2 LP 4 LP 5 LP 1 OBSTACLE
