Wv DMV Practice Test 1

It's the law to ALWAYS wear your seatbelt, no matter who you are!

500 feet is too far, as there may be multiple chances of turning within the 500 feet. Turning your blinker on at the last second eliminates the purpose of the blinker.

It's the speed limit. You may not go above it for any reason whatsoever.

Blocking an intersection would cause all traffic to stop moving, which is against the law.

Safety first! all three options ensure the safety of a young child!

Looking below the lights will take your eyes off your side of the road and you will still be blinded. Allowing over drivers to pass does nothing for blocking the light. Looking at the right edge of your lane takes your eyes away from the light while maintaining vision on your side of the road.

Driving on the shoulder may cause you to hit the guard rail, lose control of your vehicle, or if the car you're passing decides to take off, you will collide with that car.

0.08% is the legal limit, which means if you have a BAC of 0.08% or above, you are AUTOMATICALLY guilty of DUI. You can still get charged for DUI if you blow anything less than that, but it depends on if you show signs of impairment.

You want your wheels straight because you don't know what the car behind you will do. If you get hit, and your wheels are turned in any direction other than straight, you have a high possibility of getting hit again by oncoming traffic.

Road maps and flares are non vital to anyone unless you are taking a road trip. Most people buy used cars and most don't come with the manual. Insurance is required so that you can cover the other person if it your fault.

You can never eliminate your blind spot with your mirrors. By actually turning your head you can see directly where the mirrors cannot and check for any vehicles.

These are the lanes that both directions can get into to turn left and not disturb or stop the flow of traffic.

Larger vehicles need more space because it takes them longer to stop than smaller vehicles. Also, larger vehicles have larger blind spots.

If it's raining hard or snowing, it's better to drive slower because it's easier to maintain control of your vehicle and visibility will improve at slower speeds.

When you turn around, you are eliminating blind spots and you get a direct view of where you are backing up.

Yellow means to take caution. If you see the yellow light from afar, you will most likely stop at the light as the light is about to change to red. If you get the yellow light when you are close to the light, you may go on but be careful.

These are all safety measures that help you prevent an accident while driving.

The minimum for any fine is $50.

Hitting the brakes while skidding will cause you to continue skidding. if you turn your car in the opposite direction to try to straighten you car out, you will end up weaving and probably wrecking. If you turn in the direction of the skid, it will allow your tires to roll and regain friction(grip) with the road.

If you are thrown from a vehicle during a crash, the risk of death is five times greater compared to if you remain in the vehicle. This is because being thrown from a vehicle increases the chances of sustaining severe injuries, such as head trauma or being hit by another vehicle. Remaining inside the vehicle provides some level of protection, such as the seatbelt and the vehicle's structure, which can help reduce the risk of fatal injuries.

Yellow means caution, but this isn't a stoplight. when you see a "X" light, it's referring to the lanes. A red "x" light means that the lane is closed while the yellow means the lane is about to close and you should move out safely soon as possible.

Stopping too far back may cause a traffic jam. Treat it as like it's a normal car when stopping.

Pumping your brakes will do you no good if your brakes are out. If you apply the parking brake, you cause a chance of locking your wheels up and losing control of your vehicle. Shifting to a lower gear will cause your engine to reduce the speed to the lower gear's range, which will slow your vehicle down.

Solid Yellow lines mean passing is not allowed in your lane. Yellow Broken line means passing is allowed in your lane if it is safe. You are allowed to turn left onto another street if your yellow line is solid.

If you turn onto the pavement while you're still in motion, your car will most likely jerk you into the opposite lane and possibly causing a collision. If you brake lightly and slow your vehicle down, you can gently and safely bring your vehicle back up onto the pavement.
