Rate this question:
o A. Slowing down sooner than normal because the roads are wet. o B. Notice that the light is red so you will have to make a complete stop before determining if it is clear to proceed with caution. o C. Focus on that gas price to see if it is the lowest one in town. o D. Ensure there are no pedestrians that are going to cross in front of you just out of the current view. Correct Answer(s) A. Slowing down sooner than normal because the roads are wet. B. Notice that the light is red so you will have to make a complete stop
before determining if it is clear to proceed with caution. D. Ensure there are no pedestrians that are going to cross in front of you just out of the current view. Explanation The only incorrect response is to focus on gas prices because you should be focused on the road and your surroundings. Rate this question:
o A. True o B. False Correct Answer A. True
Give them the one fingered wave. Correct Answer A. Let your foot off the accelerator and cover the brake in the event that you need to slow down. Explanation The best option here is to cover the brake. There is still plenty of room between you and the car, and you are only going about 40 mph. Slamming on the brakes would be inappropriate because a car behind you may not be anticipating your immediate stop, and the car in front of you will be out of the way in an ideal situation. Rate this question:
o A. Creep forward until people stop walking in front of you. o B. Honk a few times to clear you path.
o C. Back up quickly and go a different way if it doesn't clear very soon. o D. Sit and wait patiently until no one remains in the crosswalk. If it remains clear, then proceed slowly and with caution. Correct Answer D. Sit and wait patiently until no one remains in the crosswalk. If it remains clear, then proceed slowly and with caution. Explanation The pedestrians have the right of way so the best course of action is to wait until all is clear. It would not be advisable to back up quickly since there could be people or traffic behind you. Honking and creeping forward are also not advised in this situation. Rate this question:
o A.
o A. Put on your right blinker well in advanced. o B. Brake early and slowly because of the road conditions. o C. Speed through the turn so you get to your destination more quickly. o D. Turn on your hazard warning lights since you will be slowing down on the main road. Correct Answer(s) A. Put on your right blinker well in advanced. B. Brake early and slowly because of the road conditions. Explanation Using a blinker and slowing down early are both good practice in this
situation. Hazard lights are not necessary here because you are slowing down to turn, and you are in the turn lane. The hazards should be used when you are unexpectedly going slowly and you need to signal other drivers of this unexpected speed. Rate this question:
o A. True o B. False Correct Answer A. True Explanation School zone speed limits are enforced during school hours so always be cautious when driving through them because you never know when a child could be crossing the street. Rate this question:
o A. Take the next exit or stop at the next rest stop to take a break. o B. Pull over on the side of the road to rest. o C. Keep driving through the drowsiness because you could never fall asleep at the wheel. o D. Turn up your music really loud to keep yourself awake. Correct Answer A. Take the next exit or stop at the next rest stop to take a break. Explanation Stopping on the shoulder of the interstate is not advised because the
vehicles around you are traveling at high speeds and may not be able to react fast enough if you are in their way. Turning up your music really loud would make you less aware of your surroundings and may not help wake you up for very long. It is best to take an exit and rest until feeling better. Rate this question:
o A. If the left lane is clear, then turn on your blinker and move over. If not, then stay to the left side of the right lane and slow down. o B. Keep going as you are because the car is likely abandoned. o C. Pull over to see if they need help. o D.
o C. Grasp your steering wheel firmly so when they hit you, you don't spin out of control o D. Put on your hazard flashers and wave your arms out of your window so that they see you Correct Answer A. Brake to prevent them from hitting you Explanation Slowing down will prevent them from hitting you Rate this question:
o A. Drive very slowly so you can see if the truck is going to try to change lanes into your lane o B.
Continuously beep your horn while aggressively passing so that the truck driver knows you are there o C. Drive on the rumble strip to get more space and alert the truck driver that you are there o D. Continue passing the truck at a consistent speed Correct Answer D. Continue passing the truck at a consistent speed Explanation While passing a semi-truck, be aware that you will be in their blind spot and that they will not be able to see you, so don't stay next to them for long. Rate this question:
o A.
o A. Slow down once you are in the exit lane and off the two interstate lanes. o B. As soon as you see the sign so that way you are already going the speed needed to get off on the exit. o C. Speed up in case someone behind you is getting off the ramp too. o D. Only slow down if there are others around you. Correct Answer A. Slow down once you are in the exit lane and off the two interstate lanes. Explanation You don't want to slow down too early because the other vehicles on the
interstate are still trying to go 70 mph. It is best to begin slowing once you have moved over into the right exit lane. Rate this question:
o A. When passing slow moving vehicles. o B. When there is a hazard in one of the right most lanes. o C. When there is an exit on the left side of the interstate that you need to take. o D. When an ambulance is coming up behind you on the interstate. Correct Answer(s) A. When passing slow moving vehicles. B. When there is a hazard in one of the right most lanes.
