    What Is The Right Hand Lane Used For On A Three Lane Motorway?

    • Emergency Vehicles Only

    • Overtaking

    • Coaches Only

    • Vehicles Towing Trailers

    Correct Answer
    A. Overtaking
    Explanation
    The right-hand lane on a three-lane motorway is used for overtaking. This lane is typically designated as the "fast lane" and is intended for vehicles to pass slower-moving vehicles in the middle or left lanes. Overtaking should be done safely and efficiently, following all traffic laws and regulations. The right-hand lane should not be used for emergency vehicles only, coaches only, or vehicles towing trailers.

    When You Are Giving Mouth-To-Mouth You Should Only Stop When:

    • You Think The Casualty Is Dead

    • The Casualty Has Turned Blue

    • The Casualty Can Breathe Without Help

    • You Think The Ambulance Is Coming

    Correct Answer
    A. The Casualty Can Breathe Without Help
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "The Casualty Can Breathe Without Help." When giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, it is important to continue until the casualty is able to breathe on their own. This indicates that their airway is clear and they are receiving sufficient oxygen. Stopping before this point could be detrimental to the casualty's health and potentially lead to further complications.

    Road Humps, Chicanes, And Road Narrowings Are:

    • Always At Major Road Works

    • Used To Increase Traffic Speeds

    • At Toll-Bridge Approaches Only

    • Traffic Calming Measures

    Correct Answer
    A. Traffic Calming Measures
    Explanation
    Road humps, chicanes, and road narrowings are traffic calming measures. These measures are implemented to slow down vehicles and reduce traffic speeds in order to improve safety for pedestrians and other road users. They are commonly used in residential areas, school zones, and areas with high pedestrian activity to discourage speeding and promote a safer and more comfortable environment for all road users.

    You See Two Elderly Pedestrians About To Cross The Road Ahead. You Should:

    • Be Careful, They May Misjudge Your Speed

    • Expect Them To Wait For You To Pass

    • Speed Up To Get Past Them Quickly

    • Stop And Wave Them Across The Road

    Correct Answer
    A. Be Careful, They May Misjudge Your Speed
    Explanation
    When encountering elderly pedestrians about to cross the road, it is important to be careful because they may misjudge the speed of approaching vehicles. Elderly individuals may have slower reaction times and impaired vision or hearing, which could cause them to misjudge the distance and speed of oncoming vehicles. Therefore, it is crucial to exercise caution and be prepared to slow down or stop if necessary to ensure their safety.

    You Are Driving at Dusk. You Should Switch Your Lights On:

    • Even When Street Lights Are Not Lit

    • Only When Others Have Done So

    • So Others Can See You

    • Only When Street Lights Are Lit

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Even When Street Lights Are Not Lit
    A. So Others Can See You
    Explanation
    It is important to switch your lights on when driving at dusk, even when street lights are not lit. This is because the visibility decreases during dusk, making it difficult for other drivers to see your vehicle. By having your lights on, you make yourself more visible to others on the road, reducing the risk of accidents. Therefore, switching your lights on at dusk is necessary for the safety of yourself and others.

    At Road Junctions Which Of The Following Are Most Vulnerable?

    • Cyclists

    • Pedestrians

    • Lorry Drivers

    • Motorists

    • Car Drivers

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Cyclists
    A. Pedestrians
    A. Motorists
    Explanation
    At road junctions, cyclists, pedestrians, and motorists are the most vulnerable. Road junctions are areas where different traffic streams intersect, increasing the chances of accidents and collisions. Cyclists are vulnerable due to their smaller size and lack of protection, making them less visible to other drivers. Pedestrians are also vulnerable as they are not enclosed in a vehicle and are at risk of being hit by vehicles. Motorists, although they may have more protection, can still be vulnerable at junctions due to the potential for sudden lane changes or collisions with other vehicles.

    The Police May Ask You To Produce Which THREE these documents following an accident?

    • MOT Certificate

    • Driving Licence

    • Vehicle Registration Document

    • Road Tax Disc

    • Insurance Certificate

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. MOT Certificate
    A. Driving Licence
    A. Insurance Certificate
    Explanation
    After an accident, the police may ask for certain documents to verify the legality and safety of the vehicle involved. The MOT certificate is required to ensure that the vehicle has passed the necessary safety and emissions tests. The driving licence is necessary to confirm the identity and eligibility of the driver. The insurance certificate is needed to establish that the vehicle is insured, while the vehicle registration document provides information about the ownership and registration status of the vehicle. The road tax disc is not mentioned in the answer, so it is not one of the documents the police may ask for.
