1. When parking in an uphill direction on a roadway with a curb, your front wheels:

Should point straight ahead.

Should turn away from the curb.

Should turn toward the curb.

May face in any direction, as long as you set the parking brake.

When parking in an uphill direction on a roadway with a curb, turn your front wheels sharply away from the curb. When parking in an uphill direction on a roadway without a curb, turn your front wheels sharply toward the curb.

2. If two drivers arrive at the same time to a four-way intersection controlled by stop signs:

The driver on the right has the right-of-way.

The driver on the left has the right-of-way.

One driver may continue driving without stopping.

One driver should honk to indicate that they are giving up the right-of-way.

Yield the right-of-way to the driver on your right at a four-way intersection if you both arrive to the intersection at the same time. You may then proceed when it is safe to do so.

3. How can you help prevent rear-end collisions?

Avoid sudden stops.

Before stopping, check your mirrors and blind spots for traffic.

Release the gas pedal and let your vehicle slow before applying the brakes.

All of the above.

Stopping suddenly can make it difficult for drivers behind you to avoid a rear-end collision. When stopping, release the accelerator to allow your vehicle to slow. Press the brake pedal by applying steady pressure, activating your brake lights and causing the vehicle to stop smoothly.

4. When passing a large vehicle, the driver of a small vehicle must be prepared for:

Loud noises.

Excess air pollution.

Wind gusts produced by the large vehicle.

Falling vehicle parts.

Large vehicles can cause wind gusts with a force great enough to cause direction changes in smaller vehicles. Drivers of small vehicles should be prepared to take proper corrective steering action when approaching or passing large vehicles that are moving at or near maximum speeds.

A community service group is picking up trash along the highway ahead.

Workers are on or very close to the road in the work zone ahead.

Children are at play ahead.

This sign indicates that workers may be on or very close to the roadway ahead, so you should take special care when traveling through the area.

6. To avoid colliding with the car in front of you, you should:

Watch for hazards ahead.

Watch for brake lights ahead.

Use the four-second rule.

All of the above.

To avoid rear-end collisions, it is helpful to look for break lights and other hazards in the traffic ahead of your vehicle. It is recommended that you maintain a following distance of four seconds when driving under ideal conditions.
