1. You should not make sudden stops in front of large trucks and buses because:

Small vehicle drivers cannot adequately see large trucks and buses in their rearview mirrors.

Large trucks and buses, due to their size and weight, require longer distances to stop than smaller passenger vehicles.

Large trucks and buses travel at a higher speeds than small vehicles.

Large vehicles require longer distances to stop and accelerate than smaller vehicles do. Making a sudden stop in front of a large vehicle is dangerous because the other driver may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision.

2. Having a driver license is a:

Requirement.

Privilege.

Right.

It is important to remember that driving is a privilege and that all drivers play a role in ensuring that everyone remains safe on the roadways. If you prove to be abusive of that privilege, the privilege may be revoked.

3. You should not start across an intersection if you know you will block the intersection when the light turns red:

Under any circumstances.

Unless you entered the intersection on a yellow light.

Unless you entered the intersection on a green light.

Even if the signal is green, you must not enter an intersection unless you can get completely across before the light turns red. If you block the intersection, you can be cited.

4. Increase your following distance when driving behind a large vehicle:

To better see around the sides of the vehicle.

Because other drivers tend to pull behind large vehicles before trying to pass them.

Because following too closely will get you caught in the vehicle's slipstream.

Drivers of trucks, buses, vans, and 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.

5. Which of the following is a dangerous habit when driving in work zones?

Tailgating another vehicle

Failing to carefully watch for workers and moving equipment

Both of the above

When driving in a work zone, adjust your speed for the traffic conditions and don't follow other vehicles too closely. Be attentive to workers and machines in the work zone.

6. To avoid hydroplaning while driving in rainy conditions, you should:

Drive at a speed appropriate for ideal conditions.

Apply your brakes as soon as your car starts to skid.

Slow down.

When driving too quickly in wet conditions, your tires may lose all contact with the road surface. Loss of traction will cause the vehicle to ride on top of the water, which is called "hydroplaning." The best way to prevent this from happening is to drive more slowly in rainy or wet conditions than you would when driving during ideal weather conditions.

7. At dawn or dusk and in rain or snow, it can be hard to see and be seen. A good way to let other drivers know you are there is to turn:

Up the instrumental panel lights.

On your parking lights.

On your headlights.

You must use your headlights at any time when conditions prevent you from seeing other vehicles and when it may be difficult for other drivers to see you. Always use your low beam headlights if weather conditions require you to use your windshield wipers.
