Some things to know about driving in the US:

If you are interested in turning left at a traffic light junction - even if you have a green - you will still have the right of way for vehicles, which drive directly in front of you. In this case, enter the intersection carefully, making sure there is no vehicle traveling in front of you. At the same time, if a left arrow appears at the traffic light - the right of way is yours.

And

If you are interested in turning right, and there is no sign indicating that turning right is forbidden at a red light - you can turn right at a red light (of course you must make sure that no vehicle is coming from you).

And

If you arrive at an unmarked intersection with several stop signs (there are also intersections with 4 stop signs) - the order of entry to the intersection will depend on the time the vehicle arrives at the intersection.

And

If an emergency vehicle (police car, fire department, police) comes towards you and activates a siren - you must stop immediately on the side of the road - even if the vehicle is in front of you.

And

If you are traveling near a school bus (the yellow bus) that stops and takes out a stop sign - you must stop immediately - if you are in the opposite lane - until the bus returns the stop sign and travels on its way. It is expressly forbidden to approach the bus, and of course not to overtake it.

And

If a police officer stops you - do not get out of a vehicle - but wait for him to come to you. The Israeli driver's license and the international driver's license must be prepared in advance.

And

Pleasant and safe driving!
