The Passing Place Guide
A simple guide to keeping Skye moving.
Pull in on the left
When you see a passing place, pull in and give way to oncoming traffic.
Wait on the right
Let the other vehicle pass, then continue when it’s clear.
Wave thanks
A friendly wave goes a long way. One raised hand is sufficient. Five separate waves is excessive.
