A.(1) Whenever any highway has been divided into two roadways by a median, physical barrier, or clearly indicated dividing section so constructed as to impede vehicular traffic, every vehicle shall be driven only upon the right hand roadway and no vehicle shall be driven over, across, or within the median, barrier, or section, except through an improved opening or at a crossover or intersection established under authority of this Chapter.
