    What does this sign mean?

    • Slippery when wet

    • Narrow bridge

    • Uneven road

    • Railroad crossing

    Correct Answer
    A. Uneven road
    Explanation
    The sign "Slippery when wet" indicates that the road surface may become slippery and dangerous when it is wet.

This sign is used to warn drivers to be cautious and reduce their speed to ensure a safe and smooth ride on the uneven road surface.

    You should always yield to the traffic on your left when entering a roundabout. - ProProfs

    You should always yield to the traffic on your left when entering a roundabout.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When entering a roundabout, it is important to yield to the traffic on your left. This is because vehicles already in the roundabout have the right of way, and yielding to them ensures a smooth flow of traffic. By giving way to the traffic on your left, you can avoid potential accidents and maintain the proper order within the roundabout. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

    If the light is green but there is significant traffic still in the intersection, what should you do? - ProProfs

    If the light is green but there is significant traffic still in the intersection, what should you do?

    • Enter the intersection and wait to go

    • Wait until traffic clears and then enter the intersection

    • Try to go around the intersection

    • Do not go until the light turns green the next time

    Correct Answer
    A. Wait until traffic clears and then enter the intersection
    Explanation
    If the light is green but there is significant traffic still in the intersection, it is important to wait until the traffic clears before entering the intersection. This is the safest option as it allows for a smooth flow of traffic and reduces the risk of accidents or collisions. Trying to go around the intersection or not going until the light turns green the next time can be dangerous and may violate traffic rules. Therefore, it is best to exercise patience and wait for the traffic to clear before proceeding.

    When driving faster than other cars on a highway, which lane should you use? - ProProfs

    When driving faster than other cars on a highway, which lane should you use?

    • Right lane

    • Left lane

    • Shoulder

    • Any lane

    Correct Answer
    A. Left lane
    Explanation
    When driving faster than other cars on a highway, it is recommended to use the left lane. The left lane is typically designated as the passing lane or the fast lane, allowing for smoother flow of traffic. This lane is intended for drivers who are traveling at higher speeds, while the right lane is generally used for slower-moving vehicles or for merging onto and exiting the highway. Using the left lane when driving faster helps maintain a safe and efficient traffic flow on the highway.
