    When parked on any hill, you should always set your parking brake and:

    • A.

      Leave your vehicle in neutral

    • B.

    • C.

      Leave your vehicle in gear or the "park" position

    Correct Answer
    C. Leave your vehicle in gear or the "park" position
    Explanation
    When parked on any hill, it is important to set your parking brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling. In addition to this, leaving your vehicle in gear or the "park" position provides an extra layer of safety. This ensures that even if the parking brake fails, the transmission will keep the vehicle in place. Keeping the front wheels parallel to the road is not necessary for parking on a hill, although it is a good practice to prevent the vehicle from rolling sideways.

    Explanation
    To pass safely on a two-lane highway, it is important to wait until solid double yellow lines separate the lanes. This indicates that passing is not allowed. Additionally, increasing the speed to 65 mph is not necessary or recommended. The most crucial factor for a safe pass is to have a sufficient gap in oncoming traffic, ideally lasting for 10 to 12 seconds. This ensures that there is enough time and space to complete the pass without risking a collision with oncoming vehicles.

      Illegal at all times

    • C.

      Not restricted by law

    Correct Answer
    B. Illegal at all times
    Explanation
    Smoking inside a vehicle when a person younger than 19 years of age is present is illegal at all times. This means that regardless of the relationship between the smoker and the minor, it is against the law to smoke in a vehicle when a person under 19 is present. This regulation is in place to protect minors from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke and to promote a healthier environment for children.

  • 13. 

    If you are unable to see the road ahead while driving because of heavy rain or fog, and your wipers do not help, you should:

    • A.

      Slow down and continue driving

    • B.

      Turn on your high beams and continue driving

    • C.

      Pull off the road completely until visibility improves

    Correct Answer
    C. Pull off the road completely until visibility improves
    Explanation
    In situations where visibility is severely impaired due to heavy rain or fog, it is unsafe to continue driving. Slowing down may not be sufficient to avoid potential accidents. Turning on high beams can actually worsen visibility by reflecting off the rain or fog. Therefore, the best course of action is to pull off the road completely and wait until visibility improves to ensure safety for both the driver and other road users.

      Stop before merging with freeway traffic

    • C.

      Make room by forcing your way into a small gap

    Correct Answer
    B. Stop before merging with freeway traffic
    Explanation
    Stopping before merging with freeway traffic is the correct answer because it is important to wait for a safe and appropriate gap in the traffic before merging onto the freeway. It is not safe or legal to drive on the freeway shoulder or force your way into a small gap. Stopping allows you to wait for a suitable opportunity to merge without disrupting the flow of traffic or causing any potential accidents.

    Explanation
    When a traffic light turns green, it indicates that it is safe to proceed. However, it is important to yield to any vehicles or pedestrians that are still in the intersection. This is necessary to ensure the safety of everyone on the road and to prevent accidents. Failing to yield to others in the intersection can result in a ticket for causing gridlock, which is when traffic is blocked and unable to move. Therefore, it is crucial to go immediately when the light turns green but always prioritize the safety of others on the road.

    You are driving at night on a dimly lit street and using high beams. You should dim your lgihts when you are within 500 feet of:

    • A.

      A vehicle approaching you from behind

    • B.

      An oncoming vehicle

    • C.

      A sharp curve or hill

    Correct Answer
    B. An oncoming vehicle
    Explanation
    When driving at night with high beams on, it is important to dim your lights when you are within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle. This is because the bright lights can blind the driver of the oncoming vehicle and make it difficult for them to see the road ahead. Dimming your lights in this situation ensures the safety of both drivers by reducing the risk of accidents caused by impaired visibility. Dimming the lights is not necessary when a vehicle is approaching from behind or when encountering a sharp curve or hill.

      Passenger car

    • B.

      Station wagon

    • C.

      Large tour bus

    Correct Answer
    C. Large tour bus
    Explanation
    When following a large tour bus, it is important to allow extra space in front of your vehicle because these buses have a longer stopping distance compared to passenger cars and station wagons. The additional space allows you to have a greater reaction time in case the bus suddenly brakes or stops. It also provides a clear line of sight, enabling you to see the road ahead and anticipate any potential hazards or obstacles. By maintaining a safe distance, you can ensure the safety of both yourself and the passengers on the bus.

    Explanation
    Headlights should be used anytime a driver has trouble seeing others or being seen. This is important for ensuring safety on the road, especially in conditions such as heavy rain, fog, or darkness. It helps to improve visibility for the driver and allows other drivers to see their vehicle more clearly. Using headlights in such situations is a responsible and necessary practice to prevent accidents and ensure the overall safety of everyone on the road.

    Rate this question:

    You are approaching a sharp curve on the road. You should:

    • A.

      Start braking before you enter the curve

    • B.

      Start braking as soon as you enter the curve

    • C.

      Accelerate into the curve

    Correct Answer
    A. Start braking before you enter the curve
    Explanation
    When approaching a sharp curve on the road, it is important to start braking before entering the curve. This allows you to reduce your speed and maintain control of the vehicle as you navigate the curve. Braking while already in the curve can be dangerous as it may cause the vehicle to skid or lose traction. Accelerating into the curve is also not recommended as it can lead to loss of control and increase the risk of an accident. Starting to brake before entering the curve ensures a safer and smoother maneuver.

      Must be driving slower than the other traffic

    • C.

      Must give right-of-way to merging traffic

    Correct Answer
    A. Should expect merging vehicles at on-ramps
    Explanation
    When driving in the far right lane of a freeway, it is important to expect merging vehicles at on-ramps. This is because vehicles entering the freeway from on-ramps need to merge into the traffic flow, and they may not be able to match the speed of the other vehicles immediately. As a driver in the right lane, it is important to be aware of these merging vehicles and adjust your speed or position if necessary to ensure a safe and smooth merge.

    Which of the following is true about safety belts and accidients?

    • A.

      They are unnecessary for vehicles equipped with front or side air bags

    • B.

      They keep you from being thrown clear to safety, which lowers your chances of surviving accidents.

    • C.

      They increase your chances of survival in most cases of accidents

    Correct Answer
    C. They increase your chances of survival in most cases of accidents
    Explanation
    Safety belts increase your chances of survival in most cases of accidents. Wearing a safety belt helps to restrain the body during a collision, preventing the occupants from being thrown out of the vehicle or hitting the interior components. It also helps to distribute the force of impact over a larger area of the body, reducing the risk of severe injuries. While front or side airbags provide additional protection, they are not a substitute for safety belts and should be used in conjunction with them for maximum safety.

    It is very foggy. Slow down, turn on your windshield wipers and:

    • A.

      High beam lights

    • B.

      Low beam lights

    • C.

      Emergency flashers

    Correct Answer
    B. Low beam lights
    Explanation
    In foggy conditions, visibility is reduced, and high beam lights can actually cause more glare and make it harder to see. Low beam lights, on the other hand, provide a better view of the road without reflecting off the fog particles. Therefore, turning on your low beam lights is the appropriate action to take in order to improve visibility and drive safely in foggy conditions.

    Correct Answer
    B. Slow or stop your car and use your horn
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to slow or stop your car and use your horn. This is the safest option because it allows you to give the other driver a clear signal that you are there and they need to wait. By slowing down or stopping, you are giving yourself more time to react if the other driver still decides to pull out in front of you. Using your horn can also alert other drivers in the vicinity to the potential danger.

    If you are towing another vehicle or trailer on a freeway with four lanes in your direction, you may travel in:

    • A.

      Any of the traffic lanes in your direction

    • B.

      Either of the two right lanes

    When towing another vehicle or trailer on a freeway with four lanes in your direction, you are allowed to travel in either of the two right lanes. This is because the two right lanes provide more space and are generally safer for towing. The far right lane is especially recommended as it allows for easier merging and exiting the freeway. However, you are not restricted to only the far right lane and can choose to travel in either of the two right lanes.

    When sharing the road with a light rail vehicle:

    • A.

      Never turn in front of an approaching light rail vehicle

    • B.

      Always pass a light rail vehicle slowly on the right

This is because light rail vehicles are larger and heavier than regular vehicles, and they require a longer distance to come to a stop. Turning in front of a light rail vehicle can be dangerous and may result in a collision. It is important to wait for the light rail vehicle to pass before making any turns to ensure safety on the road.

    You are approaching an uncontrolled intersection. You:

    • A.

      Must always stop before driving through the intersection

    • B.

      Must yield the right-of-way to all other vehicles

    • C.

      Should slow down and be ready to stop

    Correct Answer
    C. Should slow down and be ready to stop
    Explanation
    When approaching an uncontrolled intersection, it is important to slow down and be prepared to stop. This is because there are no traffic signals or signs to regulate the flow of traffic, which means that other vehicles may be approaching from different directions. Slowing down and being ready to stop allows you to assess the situation and proceed safely, giving priority to any vehicles that may already be in the intersection. It is crucial to exercise caution and be prepared for any potential hazards at uncontrolled intersections.

    You are crossing and intersection and an emergency vehicle is approaching with a siren and flashing lights. You should:

    • A.

      Stop immediately in the intersection until it passes

    • B.

      Pull to the right in the intersection and stop

    • C.

      Continue through the intersection, pull to the right, and stop

    Correct Answer
    C. Continue through the intersection, pull to the right, and stop
    Explanation
    When an emergency vehicle is approaching with a siren and flashing lights, it is important to give it the right of way and make way for it to pass. The correct answer, "Continue through the intersection, pull to the right, and stop," reflects this. By continuing through the intersection, the driver ensures that they are not obstructing the emergency vehicle's path. Pulling to the right allows the emergency vehicle to pass on the left side, which is the standard practice. Once the emergency vehicle has passed, the driver should come to a complete stop to avoid any potential hazards.
