    In the state of Georgia, you are responsible for providing the vehicle for the road test.

    • A.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In the state of Georgia, it is the responsibility of the individual to provide the vehicle for the road test. This means that if someone wants to take a road test to obtain a driver's license, they must bring their own vehicle for the test. The state does not provide vehicles for this purpose. Therefore, the statement "True" correctly reflects this requirement in Georgia.

It allows drivers to have enough time to react to any unexpected situations and reduces the severity of accidents. Driving at a slower speed also helps to minimize noise and air pollution in residential areas.

    When driving at night, make sure your _____ are on to help you see in the distance.

    Correct Answer
    lights
    headlights
    Explanation
    When driving at night, it is important to have your lights on in order to improve visibility.

By having your lights on, you can effectively navigate the road and identify any potential hazards or obstacles that may be present.

    Dim or lower headlights when driving in rain, snow, fog, or smoke.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When driving in rain, snow, fog, or smoke, it is important to dim or lower your headlights. This is because these weather conditions can reduce visibility, and using high beams can actually make it harder to see by reflecting light back at you. Dimming or lowering your headlights helps to improve visibility for yourself and other drivers on the road, reducing the risk of accidents. Therefore, the statement is true.

    B. False
    Explanation
    Leaving the scene of an accident, even if it is not your fault, is not acceptable. It is important to stay at the scene to ensure the safety of all involved parties, exchange information with the other party, and report the accident to the appropriate authorities. Leaving the scene can result in legal consequences and may hinder the investigation of the accident.

    Correct Answer
