road laws

Driving conduct codes

Road laws are the rules and regulations governing the use of public roads and highways—covering speed limits, right of way, traffic signals, licensing, and vehicle requirements.

The term is informal; legal codes typically use "traffic laws" or "motor vehicle laws." Road laws vary by state, so check local regulations before your trip.
