    When can you use a hand-held mobile phone while driving?

    • Never

    • Only to call 999 or 112 in an emergency where it is unsafe to stop

    • When you are on a full and unrestricted license

    Correct Answer
    A. Only to call 999 or 112 in an emergency where it is unsafe to stop
    Explanation
    You can only use a hand-held mobile phone while driving to call 999 or 112 in an emergency where it is unsafe to stop. This means that you should not use your phone for any other purpose while driving, as it can be dangerous and distract you from the road. Using a mobile phone while driving is illegal in many countries and can result in penalties or accidents.

    You have been drinking heavily. Which of the following will help you sober up sooner so you can drive?

    • Drinking water or eating

    • Waiting to sober up

    • Vigorous exercise

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Waiting to sober up
    Explanation
    Waiting to sober up is the correct answer because the body needs time to metabolize alcohol and eliminate it from the system. Drinking water or eating may help to some extent by diluting the alcohol in the stomach or slowing down its absorption, but it will not speed up the process of sobering up. Vigorous exercise may actually worsen the effects of alcohol by increasing blood flow and causing alcohol to be absorbed more quickly. Therefore, the best option is to wait until the body naturally processes and eliminates the alcohol.

    You need to top up your battery. What level should you fill to?

    • The top of the battery

    • Half-way up the battery

    • Just below the cell plates

    • Just above the cell plates

    Correct Answer
    A. Just above the cell plates
    Explanation
    When topping up a battery, it is important to fill it just above the cell plates. The cell plates are located inside the battery and are responsible for the chemical reactions that produce electricity. Filling the battery just above the cell plates ensures that the plates are fully submerged in the electrolyte solution, allowing for proper chemical reactions to occur. Filling the battery too high or too low can lead to inefficient battery performance or damage to the battery.

    Can you drive through a pelican crossing with a green light?

    • No, you must wait

    • Yes, if there are no pedestrians on your side of the road

    • Yes, always

    • Only if there are no pedestrians crossing

    Correct Answer
    A. Only if there are no pedestrians crossing
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Only if there are no pedestrians crossing." This is because pelican crossings are designed to prioritize pedestrian safety. When the light is green for vehicles, it indicates that they can proceed, but only if there are no pedestrians crossing or about to cross the road. Drivers must always yield to pedestrians at a pelican crossing, even if the light is green for vehicles. Failure to do so can result in accidents and endanger pedestrians.

    You are parking a car with a manual gearbox against the curb facing down a hill. How should you park.

    • Leave your car in reverse and steer away from the curb

    • Leave you car in reverse and steer towards the curb

    • Leave your car in first gear and steer towards the curb

    • Leave your car in first gear and steer away from the curb

    Correct Answer
    A. Leave you car in reverse and steer towards the curb
    Explanation
    When parking a car with a manual gearbox facing down a hill, it is recommended to leave the car in reverse and steer towards the curb. This is because parking in reverse allows the car to roll back against the engine compression, providing more stability. Steering towards the curb ensures that the car is positioned closer to the curb, reducing the risk of it rolling forward.

    Can you wait, load, unload or park by a curb with a single red line?

    • Yes, you are free to wait, load and unload here

    • There will be a parking sign nearby that will state which times you can stop here

    • Yes, you can stop here to load and unload only

    • No, you cannot stop here at any time

    Correct Answer
    A. There will be a parking sign nearby that will state which times you can stop here
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that there will be a parking sign nearby that will state which times you can stop here. This means that although there is a single red line, indicating restrictions, you are still allowed to wait, load, unload, or park in this area during specific times that will be indicated by a nearby parking sign. The sign will provide the necessary information regarding the permitted times for stopping in this location.

    • 30%

    • 40%

    Correct Answer

    Road transport accounts for 20% of all emissions. This means that out of all the emissions produced globally, 20% can be attributed to road transport. This includes emissions from cars, trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles that use roads for transportation. The percentage indicates the significant contribution of road transport to overall emissions and highlights the need for sustainable transportation solutions to reduce environmental impact.

    You see an amber light at a pedestrian crossing. Do you need to stop here?

    • Yes

    • No, but the light will shortly turn to red

    • Only if there are pedestrians using the crossing

    • No, you only need to stop for a red light

    Correct Answer
    A. Only if there are pedestrians using the crossing
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Only if there are pedestrians using the crossing." This is because when you see an amber light at a pedestrian crossing, it indicates that the light is about to turn red. However, you only need to stop if there are pedestrians currently using the crossing. If there are no pedestrians, you can proceed with caution before the light turns red.

    • White

    • Red

    • Amber
