Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    In Massachusetts, driving is considered a...

    • A.

      Right

    • B.

      Duty

    • C.

      Privilege

    • D.

      Burden

    Correct Answer
    C. Privilege
    Explanation
    Driving in Massachusetts is considered a privilege because it is not an inherent right granted to all individuals. Instead, it is a special permission given by the state to those who meet certain requirements, such as obtaining a driver's license and following traffic laws. This privilege can be revoked or suspended if a driver fails to adhere to the rules and regulations of the road. Therefore, driving is not a burden or duty but a privilege granted to individuals who demonstrate the ability to operate a vehicle safely.

    Explanation
    The RMV will test your eyes for visual acuity, peripheral vision, and color vision. Visual acuity refers to the sharpness and clarity of your vision, which must be at least 20/40 in the better eye, corrected.

Color vision is the ability to perceive and distinguish different colors accurately. Therefore, all of these factors are assessed during the eye test conducted by the RMV.

    Rate this question:

      It identifies you as a Junior Operator

    • B.

      It means that you are still in high school

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "It identifies you as a Junior Operator." When a person is under the age of 18 and holds a driver's license, it will have the restriction "I" on it. This restriction indicates that the person is a junior operator, meaning they have certain limitations and restrictions while driving, such as curfew hours, passenger restrictions, and restrictions on cellphone use.

    Correct Answer
    A. Wear their glasses or corrective lenses in order to drive
    Explanation
    A driver whose license has the restriction "Corrective lenses" must wear their glasses or corrective lenses in order to drive. This means that they are required to wear their glasses or corrective lenses whenever they are operating a vehicle. This restriction is in place to ensure that the driver has clear vision while driving, which is essential for safe driving. Not wearing their glasses or corrective lenses would be a violation of their license restriction and could result in penalties or even accidents due to impaired vision.

    Rate this question:

    • A.

      Might have to wear them for the eye exam at the RMV

    • B.

      Must wear them for the eye exam at the RMV

    • C.

      Should take the eye exam at the RMV both with and then without them

    • D.

      Don't have to take the eye exam at the RMV

    Correct Answer
    B. Must wear them for the eye exam at the RMV
    Explanation
    If you normally wear eyeglasses or contact lenses to see at a distance, then you must wear them for the eye exam at the RMV. This is because the eye exam is designed to assess your vision as it normally is, and not wearing your corrective lenses would not accurately reflect your visual abilities. Wearing your glasses or contact lenses during the exam ensures that your vision is properly assessed and any necessary corrective measures can be taken if needed.

This helps to prioritize the safety of everyone on the road.

      3

    • B.

Therefore, if you have any of these incidents or violations, you would not have a clean record and would not be allowed to take the road test.
