Parempööre

Parempööre is an Estonian term that translates to "right turn" or "turning to the right." It is primarily used in the context of traffic and road rules. When a driver is instructed to make a parempööre, they must execute a turn to the right at an intersection or junction. This instruction is typically given by traffic signs, traffic lights, or by law enforcement officers directing traffic. The specific rules and regulations surrounding parempööre, like any traffic maneuver, are governed by the Estonian Road Traffic Act. Understanding and correctly executing a parempööre is essential for safe driving and maintaining the flow of traffic. In some specific situations, a parempööre might be prohibited or require particular caution, such as when turning from a lane not designated for right turns or when pedestrian crossings are involved. The concept of parempööre is fundamental to navigating Estonian roadways and adheres to general principles of right-hand traffic observed in many countries.
