Keep to the left.
The road switch happened at 6am today.
So remember to keep left.
Chief Executive Officer of Land Transport Authority, Leasi Galuvao, urges that as most important.
“And drive carefully,” said Leasi.
“Stick to the speed limit.”
Leasi thinks drivers will be cautious the first few days of the switch.

The time of most concern is when motorists believe themselves adjusted to the new conditions and press the accelerator a little harder.
That’s why the safety messages will persist up to three months from now, Leasi said.
LTA’s technical unit was yesterday afternoon praying the rain would stop so that they could complete the remaining directional arrows at intersections in town before 6am today.
Road signs on poles are still being vandalised, with some pushed down with their coverings still on, Leasi said.

But they will go over all areas to reinstall such signs, he said.
Directional arrows were being painted day and night in the suburbs and busy roads like the one to Faleolo International Airport in the weekend.
So were STOP and GIVE WAY signs.

When making a turn at intersections always give way to vehicles approaching from your right.
Follow the direction of the arrows on the road carefully.
Above all, keep to the new speed limits in place.
Be aware of pedestrians at all times.
