Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    In densely packed snow you should

    • A.

      Drive slowly

    • B.

      Not drive

    • C.

      Use chains or snow tires

    Correct Answer
    C. Use chains or snow tires
    Explanation
    In densely packed snow, the road conditions can be extremely slippery and hazardous. Driving slowly alone may not provide enough traction to maintain control of the vehicle. Therefore, using chains or snow tires can greatly improve traction and grip on the snowy surface, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring a safer driving experience.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    If you must drive through heavy snow or fog use your

    • A.

      Low-beam lights

    • B.

      Bright lights

    • C.

      Window wipers

    Correct Answer
    A. Low-beam lights
    Explanation
    When driving through heavy snow or fog, it is important to use low-beam lights. This is because low-beam lights provide better visibility in adverse weather conditions. They allow you to see the road ahead more clearly without reflecting off the snow or fog, reducing glare and improving your ability to see other vehicles and obstacles. Bright lights, on the other hand, can create a blinding effect in such conditions, making it difficult for both you and other drivers to see properly. Window wipers are not relevant to this situation and do not improve visibility in heavy snow or fog.

    Secondary roads are roads where

    • A.

      Long

    • B.

      Sharp turns

    • C.

      Hills are more likely to be steep and curves are likely to be more sharp

    Correct Answer
    C. Hills are more likely to be steep and curves are likely to be more sharp
    Explanation
    Secondary roads are typically located in hilly or mountainous areas, where the terrain is more uneven compared to primary roads. As a result, these roads are more likely to have steep hills, which can be challenging for drivers to navigate. Additionally, secondary roads often have sharper curves, as they may follow the natural contours of the land more closely. These sharp turns require drivers to slow down and maneuver carefully to maintain control of their vehicles. Therefore, the statement that hills are more likely to be steep and curves are likely to be more sharp on secondary roads is a reasonable explanation.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    When 3 vehicles reach a 4-way stop at the same time the right way belongs to

    • A.

      The car on the right

    • B.

      The car who got there first

    • C.

      The car on the left

    Correct Answer
    A. The car on the right
    Explanation
    In a situation where 3 vehicles reach a 4-way stop at the same time, the right of way belongs to the car on the right. This is because, in most countries, the general rule is that when multiple vehicles arrive at a 4-way stop simultaneously, the vehicle on the right has the right of way. This rule helps to establish a clear and organized flow of traffic, preventing confusion and potential accidents. Therefore, the car on the right should proceed first, followed by the other vehicles in a clockwise manner.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    If a vehicle sways freely, leans heavily to one side during a turn or seems to bounce continuously there may be a problem with

    • A.

      The steering wheel

    • B.

      The suspension system

    • C.

      The engine

    Correct Answer
    B. The suspension system
    Explanation
    If a vehicle sways freely, leans heavily to one side during a turn, or seems to bounce continuously, it indicates a problem with the suspension system. The suspension system is responsible for maintaining the stability and smoothness of the vehicle's ride. If there is an issue with the suspension, it can cause the vehicle to lose control, resulting in swaying, leaning, or bouncing. Therefore, the suspension system is the likely culprit in this scenario.

    If you experience a breakdown you should

    • A.

      Pull over to the side of the road and raise your hood

    • B.

      Call 911

    • C.

      Buy a new car immediately

    Correct Answer
    A. Pull over to the side of the road and raise your hood
    Explanation
    If you experience a breakdown, pulling over to the side of the road and raising your hood is the correct course of action. This helps to signal to other drivers that your vehicle is not functioning properly and alerts them to proceed with caution. Additionally, raising the hood can provide a visual cue to passing motorists that you may require assistance. Calling 911 may be necessary in certain situations, such as if you are in immediate danger or blocking traffic, but it is not always the first step. Buying a new car immediately is not a practical solution when faced with a breakdown.

  • 25. 

    For any underage person who aids or abets another attempting to purchase any alcoholic beverage, the law requires

    • A.

      $1000 fine

    • B.

      3 months in jail

    • C.

      One year drivers license suspension

    Correct Answer
    C. One year drivers license suspension
    Explanation
    The law requires a one-year suspension of the underage person's driver's license if they aid or abet another in attempting to purchase any alcoholic beverage. This is a consequence imposed to discourage underage individuals from participating in activities related to the purchase or consumption of alcohol. By suspending their driver's license, it aims to limit their mobility and potentially deter them from engaging in such behavior in the future.

    Your license would be revoked immediately if your blood alcohol rate concentration is at least 

    • A.

      8 percent

    • B.

      1.0 percent

    • C.

      0.08 percent

    Correct Answer
    C. 0.08 percent
    Explanation
    A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 percent is the legal limit in many jurisdictions for determining if a person is driving under the influence of alcohol. If a person's BAC is at least 0.08 percent, it indicates that they have consumed a significant amount of alcohol and are impaired to the point where their driving ability is compromised. As a result, their license would be revoked immediately to ensure the safety of themselves and others on the road.

Simply signaling and turning right away may lead to confusion and potentially cause accidents. Proceeding without making the proper turn would also be incorrect and may violate traffic laws.

    Rate this question:

  • 31. 

    The most common type of accident on a highway is

    • A.

      a rear-end collision

    • B.

      Merge collision

    • C.

      Falling asleep at the wheel

    To dry wet brakes

    • A.

      You cant dry them

    • B.

      Drive fast so that air can hit them

    • C.

      Gently apply brakes

    Correct Answer
    C. Gently apply brakes
    Explanation
    Gently applying the brakes is the correct answer because it allows the brake pads to make contact with the wet rotors and gradually remove the water from their surface. Applying the brakes too forcefully can cause the water to create a barrier between the pads and rotors, reducing braking performance. Driving fast to let air hit the brakes may help to some extent, but it is not a reliable method for drying wet brakes.

    • C.

      The other direction of traffic

    Correct Answer
    A. Being in a truckers blind spot
    Explanation
    "Don't hang out in the no zone" is a phrase commonly used to warn drivers about staying out of a trucker's blind spot. The "no zone" refers to the areas around a large truck where the driver has limited or no visibility. These blind spots are located on the sides, rear, and front of the truck. Being in a trucker's blind spot can be dangerous as the driver may not be able to see you, increasing the risk of accidents. Therefore, the correct answer is being in a trucker's blind spot.

    • A.

      You are behind another car

    • B.

      When driving on a highway and no car is approaching

    • C.

      You cant see on the road

    Correct Answer
    B. When driving on a highway and no car is approaching
    Explanation
    High beams should be used when driving on a highway and no car is approaching because high beams provide better visibility in dark or poorly lit areas. However, it is important to switch to low beams when there is an oncoming vehicle or when following another car to avoid blinding the other driver. Using high beams in these situations can cause accidents or be a distraction to other drivers.

    When travelling behind a farm vehicle on a two-lane road

    • A.

      Wait until the farm vehicle pulls to the side then cautiously pass

    • B.

      Keep behind it

    • C.

      Pass it quickly

    Correct Answer
    A. Wait until the farm vehicle pulls to the side then cautiously pass
    Explanation
    When travelling behind a farm vehicle on a two-lane road, it is important to wait until the farm vehicle pulls to the side and then pass it cautiously. This is the correct answer because farm vehicles often move at slower speeds and may make frequent stops or turns. Waiting for the farm vehicle to pull to the side ensures that there is enough space and visibility to safely pass it. Passing quickly without caution can be dangerous and increases the risk of accidents. Keeping behind the farm vehicle for an extended period may cause frustration to other drivers and hinder the flow of traffic.

      Causes the most accidents

    • B.

      Have large blind spots to the rear and to the side

    • C.

    Correct Answer
    B. Have large blind spots to the rear and to the side
    Explanation
    Large trucks (tractor trailers) have large blind spots to the rear and to the side. This means that the driver's visibility is significantly reduced in these areas, making it difficult for them to see other vehicles. As a result, accidents can occur when smaller vehicles are in these blind spots and the truck driver is unaware of their presence. It is important for drivers of smaller vehicles to be cautious and avoid lingering in these blind spots to prevent accidents.
