1. When parking your vehicle downhill on a two-way street:

Turn your wheels to the right.

Turn your wheels to the left.

Keep your wheels pointed straight ahead.

Leave your transmission in neutral.

When you park on a downward-facing slope, turn your wheels sharply toward the side of the road. This way, if your vehicle starts to roll downhill, it will roll away from traffic.

2. Stress can affect your driving by:

Lowing your ability to focus on driving.

Decreasing your chances of an accident.

Causing you to fall asleep at the wheel.

Making you more aware of others around you.

Emotions can have a great effect on your driving ability. You may not be able to drive well if you are overly worried, excited, afraid, angry, or sad. Stress can lessen your concentration on the task of driving. It is better to wait to drive than to risk driving while you are emotionally unstable.

3. Allowing a space cushion between your vehicle and its surroundings is important because it:

Prevents distractions from other vehicles.

Allows you time to react to unexpected situations.

Keeps traffic flowing at a safe pace.

Keeps other drivers alert.

The only way to be sure you will have enough time to react to mistakes made by other drivers is to leave plenty of space between you and the vehicles around you.

4. When parked facing downhill, the front wheels of your vehicle should be:

Turned toward the curb or shoulder.

Pointed straight ahead.

Aiming any direction.

Turned away from the curb.

When parked facing downhill, your front wheels should be turned toward the edge of the road. This way, if you brakes fail, your vehicle will roll away from traffic.

5. A diamond-shaped sign:

Warns of existing or possible hazards.

Alerts drivers to school zones.

Alerts drivers to public recreation areas.

Alerts drivers to upcoming food and gas locations.

Diamond-shaped signs warn drivers of existing or potential driving hazards. You will usually see these signs in yellow or orange.

6. Statistics show that alcohol is:

Involved in almost half of all traffic crashes that result in death.

Rarely involved in any traffic crashes.

The cause of all traffic crashes.

Involved only in traffic crashes that do not result in death.
