This road here is paved road, that means the surface of the roads is hard and that means that cars can go a lot faster and it's just easier to drive on.
And this part right here is called the shoulder of the road, so when you pull off the road you can go onto the shoulder of the road.
This part over here is kind of hard to see is called the ditch, and the ditch is when it rains all the water would run off the road into the ditch to keep the road nice and dry. The road behind me is what we call a gravel road or a dirt road. A paved road like we saw has a hard surface. A gravel road has all of these little stones, I'll hold them up to the camera. So there's a couple ways that you'll know that you need to stop when you get to the end of the street or road. Behind me you'll see a stop sign. This is a red sign with the word stop in it, an it has eight sides, it's an octagon. So a stop sign is one of the ways that you know that you need to stop you car. So the intersection behind me here is called four way stop, or all way stop. If you can see under the stop sign here says, "
All way". What that means is that whoever stops first at the intersetion gets to next.So everyone needs to take turns going through this intersection/.
