1. What should a driver do when approaching a traffic control signal that is not in operation?

Come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way before entering the intersection.

If the intersection is clear, the driver does not need to stop.

Drive quickly through the intersection to get out of the way of other vehicles.

When traffic control signals are not working, a driver must always treat the intersection as an all-way stop and come to a complete stop, unless otherwise directed by law enforcement. The driver must then look and yield the right-of-way before entering the intersection.

2. When being passed by another vehicle:

Brake hard.

Maintain a constant speed.

Speed up.

When being passed, you must yield to the passing vehicle and not increase your speed. Allow the vehicle to safely merge back into your lane.

3. If you are driving and you see animals standing near the roadway:

Speed up to scare them away.

Slow down and proceed with caution.

Quickly swerve into the next lane.

Slow down and proceed with caution if you see animals that are standing near the roadway. They may unexpectedly bolt or change direction at the last moment. Some animals travel in packs, so there may be more animals just out of sight that are also near the road.

Watch for bicycles.

Bicycles not allowed.

Bicycle repair shop ahead.

Warning signs are usually yellow with black markings. Warning signs may alert drivers to areas where animals, people, and vehicles are likely to cross traffic.

5. If you are being passed in a no passing zone, you should:

Pull off the road.

Maintain your speed and position.

Slow down and let the other driver safely return to the drive lane.

Passing areas are based on how far ahead drivers can see. Allow the passing vehicle to re-enter the drive lane as easily as possible to help everyone avoid potential upcoming hazards.

6. When turning left from a two-way street onto a one-way street, you should:

Turn into any lane.

Turn into first lane.

Turn into second lane.

When making any turn, turn from the lane closest to the direction you wish to travel into the first available legal lane. On a turn from a two-way to a one-way street, this means you should turn into the first lane.

7. Slowing down just to look at collisions or anything else out-of-the-ordinary:

Causes traffic congestion.

Prevents rear-end collisions.

Improves traffic flow by preventing collisions.

Avoid "rubbernecking," or slowing down to look at collisions or anything else out-of-the-ordinary. This helps to relieve traffic congestion.

8. What should you do when an emergency vehicle is approaching you while using its flashing red or blue lights?

Pull over to the side of the road and come to a complete stop.

Continue driving, but try to stay out of its way.

See if you can reach your destination before the emergency vehicle catches up to you.

If an emergency vehicle is coming toward you while displaying flashing red or blue lights and activating a siren, you must pull over to the curb or side of the road and come to a complete stop. Do not try to outdrive the emergency vehicle.
