(1)No vehicle shall be driven on the left side of the roadway under the following

conditions:

(a)When approaching or upon the crest of a grade or a curve in the highway

where the operator's view is obstructed within such distance as to create a

hazard in the event another vehicle might approach from the opposite

direction;

(b)When approaching within one hundred

(100)feet of or traversing any

intersection or railroad grade crossing;

(c)When the view is obstructed upon approaching within one hundred

obstruction exists making it necessary to drive to the left of the center of the

highway; provided, any person so doing shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles

traveling in the proper direction upon the unobstructed portion of the highway

within such distance as to constitute an immediate hazard, nor to the operator of a

vehicle turning left into or from an alley, private road or driveway.
