9. While driving at night, a vehicle coming toward you has its high beams on, making it hard for you to see the road ahead. You should:

Look ahead toward the left edge of your lane.

Look ahead toward the right edge of your lane.

Look straight ahead in your lane.

If an oncoming driver fails to dim their high beams, you should avoid looking directly at the headlights. Instead, look toward the right edge of your lane and watch the oncoming vehicle out of the corner of your eye.

10. Reaction time is slower after:

Drinking alcohol.

Sleeping.

Working hard.

Alcohol slows your reflexes and reaction time, reduces your ability to see clearly, and makes you less alert. As the amount of alcohol in your body increases, your judgment worsens and your driving skills decrease. You will have trouble judging distances, speeds, and the movement of other vehicles.

Dangerous intersections.

Slow-moving vehicles.

Yield signs.

A reflective orange triangle on the rear of a vehicle means it travels only at slow speeds. You may see this sign on roadwork equipment, farm vehicles, or horse-drawn wagons and carriages. It appears as a solid orange triangle during the day and a hollow red triangle at night.

12. If you encounter an aggressive driver, you should:

Challenge them.

Get out of their way.

Speed up.

Drivers must respect and cooperate with all other road users and conform to specific rules in order to maintain order and to avoid crashes. When encountering an aggressive driver, it is safest to just get out of their way. Always avoid competing with other drivers.

13. Alcohol is:

A stimulant.

An antihistamine.

A depressant.

Alcohol is a depressant that dulls your judgment and makes your reflexes unreliable.

Stop and check for traffic coming from both directions before proceeding.

Give the right-of-way to traffic on the road you wish to enter or cross.

Maintain a steady speed and check for traffic coming from all directions.

A three-sided yield sign indicates that you must slow down and be ready to stop, if necessary, to let any vehicle, bicyclist, or pedestrian pass before you proceed. In this case, you do not have the right-of-way.

15. A broken yellow line beside a solid yellow line indicates that passing is:

Permitted from the side next to the solid yellow line.

Not permitted from either direction.

Permitted from the side next to the broken yellow line.

When the center of the road is marked by a solid yellow line beside a broken yellow line, passing is permitted from the side next to the broken line and prohibited from the side next to the solid line.
