To calculate the gap, pick a fixed object on the side of the road. As the back of the car in front of you passes the object, start to count. If the front of your car reaches object before you get to two, you’re travelling too close. Slow down and increase the distance between the vehicles.

The manual Prudent Practices in the Laboratory: Handling and Management of Chemical Hazards provides an authoritative reference for the handling and disposal of chemical at the laboratory level. While this book provides an excellent resource for faculty, students, and staff, it may contain information that is contradicted by current MU EHS protocols and therefore it should be used only as a general reference source.

Proper chemical storage is a necessity for any laboratory using hazardous materials. By adhering to a few simple guidelines laboratories can minimize the hazards associated with leaks, spills, and accidental comingling of incompatible chemicals.

The summaries RACV provide on Victorian road rules are based on the Victorian Road Safety Road Rules 2017. We make sure to reference the exact rule where possible. When reading, keep in mind that we’re providing general information, not legal advice. If you’re looking for specific questions on any legal matter, consult with a lawyer for help.

When it comes to changing lanes – regardless of whether there’s line marking – you must indicate. The signal must be long enough to give enough warning to other drivers. So, no flicking on your indicator at the last minute!

There are all sorts of reasons why you might need to merge or change lanes. You could be overtaking another car, switching lanes to prepare for a turn, or entering a freeway. In this section, we cover the key things you need to know to stay safe.

Where there is an added lane, drivers approaching from both directions have their own lane and neither driver is required to give way to the other, unless a driver changes lanes, in which case they must give way to traffic in the lane they are changing into.

If you’re driving on a multi-lane road with a speed limit over 80km/h, or where there's a ‘keep left’ sign, you need to keep left unless overtaking. The exceptions are:

Added lanes are sometimes provided on freeway entry ramps or where two roads join but no merge is required at that point as each vehicle has its own lane. Signs (above) are provided so drivers are aware that there are two lanes.

You should increase the gap to greater than two seconds in wet or foggy weather, at night, if you are tired or if you are towing or driving a heavy vehicle.

Even when signs aren’t enforcing the rule, it’s courteous and practical to keep left on all multi-lane roads where possible as it helps the traffic continue to flow.

Tailgating is unsafe and illegal. We recommend allowing a minimum two-second gap between you and the car in front of you when driving.
