Passing Score 20

1. You should drive on the shoulder to pass a car:

If the vehicle ahead of you is turning left.

Under no circumstances.

If the shoulder is wide enough.

Passing on the right is permissible only if it is possible to do so without driving off the roadway. Never pass another vehicle on the shoulder because the other driver will not expect you to be there and may pull off the road.

2. How should drivers apply the gas pedal?

Slowly and smoothly

As quickly as possible

By lightly tapping

The acceleration pedal should be pressed slowly and smoothly. Depressing the gas pedal too quickly can cause your wheels to overspin, making it difficult to control your vehicle.

Pedestrian crossing.

Side road.

Railroad ahead.

This sign indicates that there is a pedestrian crosswalk.

General warning signs.

Construction and maintenance warning signs.

Regulatory signs.

The color orange is used only for construction and maintenance warning signs.

5. Changing from one lane to another is best done:

Quickly and often.

When a car is in your blind spot.

Gradually and carefully.

You should always change lanes gradually and carefully. Only change lanes when necessary. Every lane change increases the possibility of a traffic accident.

6. 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.

7. When passing on the left of a vehicle, it is safe to move back into the right lane:

After about three seconds.

When you can no longer see the vehicle over your right shoulder.

When you can see the front of the vehicle in your rearview mirror.

When passing another vehicle on its left, you may move back into the right lane when the headlights of the passed vehicle can be seen in your rearview mirror. Always signal before changing lanes.

8. In which of the following scenarios should your wheels not be pointed straight ahead?

When waiting to make a left turn at a traffic light.

When parked on a hill or sloping driveway.

When parked on the side of a level roadway where there is no curb.

While waiting to turn left, keep your wheels pointed straight ahead until it is safe to start your turn. If a vehicle hits you from behind, this will prevent you from veering into oncoming traffic. When parked facing either uphill or downhill, turn the wheels so the vehicle will not roll into traffic if the brakes fail.
