    If your tire blows out on the freeway, what should you do? - ProProfs

    If your tire blows out on the freeway, what should you do?

    • Hit the brakes

    • Steer straight and gradually decelerate

    • Jump!

    Correct Answer
    A. Steer straight and gradually decelerate
    Explanation
    It's counter-intuitive, but immediately slamming the brakes is the worst thing you can do. It can cause your car to spin out of control, making a bad situation much worse. Instead, hold the wheel firmly while easing off the gas, then gently apply your brakes once the car has slowed.

    Two cars arrive at a four-way stop at the same time. Who goes first? - ProProfs

    Two cars arrive at a four-way stop at the same time. Who goes first?

    • The vehicle furthest right

    • Driver making a left turn

    • Whoever's having a better hair day

    Correct Answer
    A. The vehicle furthest right
    Explanation
    As a general rule, the NHTSA says that the first to arrive is the first to go. If that doesn't apply, then the vehicle furthest right has the right-of-way. If even that doesn't settle the issue, then vehicles going straight should go first, and if that doesn't apply, just be nice and wave the other person through.
