    This document discusses the use of modals "can", "can't", "have to", and "don't have to" when expressing possibility, permission, obligation, and lack of obligation. Can and can't are used to talk about what is possible or allowed, and to ask for permission. Have to expresses something that is necessary or obligatory, like rules that must be followed. Don't have to signifies there is no obligation, such as not having to pay when one is a member. Examples are provided like "You can't drive through a red light" and "In Great Britain, you have to drive on the left."
