The general rule for driving position states that vehicles must drive on the right side of the carriageway and as close as possible to the verges or pavements, maintaining a safe distance to prevent accidents. Driving on the left side of the carriageway is incorrect, as in Portugal traffic flows on the right. The instruction to only maintain a sufficient distance from the verges or pavements is incomplete, as the main rule dictates proximity to them to allow for smooth traffic flow and safe overtaking on the left.
