| What's New in 2007 - 2009 |
|
The 2007 - 2009 version of the Oregon Driver Manual has notable changes from the previous edition.
Many of these changes are due to legislative action and a new program, including:
- A new law has passed for a wheelchair only disabled parking placard. You may only park in certain disabled parking spaces with this placard.
- A revised child restraint system law (see page 66).
- A new law affecting under 18 drivers, who may not use a cell phone while driving (see page 69).
- A new law regarding when and how to pass a bicyclist (see page 76).
Oregon DMV also put in more details or additional language on some topics that customers ask us about, including:
- More specific lists of acceptable proofs of age, identity, and address to obtain a license or ID card (see page 6)
- More information on how to take a test at DMV (see pages 10-12)
- More about what certain signals mean, particularly steady and flashing yellow arrows (see pages 23-24)
- How you can cross solid or double yellow lines, or a center line in a no passing zone, to make a turn but not to pass (see pages 25-26 and 40)
- To help you find information more quickly, we added Web site links throughout the manual and more details on page 112
We always try to improve the accuracy, ease of reading, and consistency of the Driver Manual. If you have any suggestions or comments, please contact Driver Programs, Oregon DMV, 1905 Lana Avenue NE, Salem, Oregon 97314.
