1. You can drive off the road to pass another vehicle:

If the vehicle ahead is turning left.

If there are two or more lanes traveling in your direction.

Under no circumstances.

You may never drive off the paved or main-traveled portion of the road and onto the shoulder to pass another vehicle.

2. A steady yellow traffic signal light is a warning that the light is about to change to red. If you are already within the intersection when a green light changes to yellow, you should:

Stop.

Continue moving and clear the intersection safely.

Increase your speed so as not to cause an accident.

If you are already within an intersection when the traffic light turns yellow, you should clear the intersection as quickly as possible.

3. You should allow an extra cushion of space:

When following a station wagon.

When following a driver who cannot see the rear of their vehicle.

When following a small passenger car.

Drivers of trucks, buses, vans, or any vehicles pulling campers or trailers may not be able to see you if you are driving directly behind them. Increase your following distance when driving behind one of these vehicles. Additionally, large vehicles can block your view of the road, so increase your following distance to look around the sides of the vehicle and see the road ahead.

4. Before changing lanes or attempting to pass another vehicle, you should:

Check your blind spots and mirrors.

Signal your intention before changing lanes.

All of the above.

Every time you want to change lanes or otherwise move your vehicle to the right or left, signal to alert other drivers to your intentions. Always check your mirrors and turn your head to check your blind spot before attempting any lateral move.

5. Sudden wind gusts on highways:

Generally affect only the movement of large vehicles.

Only cause visibility problems.

Can cause problems for all vehicles.

While it can create special problems for large vehicles, strong wind can cause problems for all drivers. Wind can lower visibility by blowing dirt and dust into the roadway, but it can sometimes also physically move a vehicle.

6. If you miss your exit on the freeway, you should not:

Continue on the freeway and find an alternate route to your destination.

Proceed to the next exit, leave the freeway, and return to your proper exit.

Back up on the road or shoulder.

If you miss your turn or exit, do not back up in the travel lane or on the shoulder. Continue to drive to the next exit or crossroad. Drivers do not expect a vehicle to be backing toward them on the roadway and doing so will likely cause a collision.

You are approaching the end of a divided highway.

You are approaching the beginning of a divided highway.

The road will be slippery ahead.

This sign indicates that a divided highway begins ahead. Keep to the right of the median divider.

8. When a car with bright headlights drives toward you at night, you should:

Stop until the other driver passes.

Look below their headlights.

Glance toward the right edge of your lane.

To avoid being blinded when driving at night, do not look directly at the headlights of oncoming cars. Instead, look toward the right edge of the road until the oncoming driver has passed.
