Before you start the test, please answer the question below regarding your insurance status.

Without insurance you will not be able to drive in California

1. When entering traffic after being parked at a curb, you:

Should drive more slowly than other traffic for 200 feet.

Should wait for a large enough gap to get up to the speed of traffic.

Should wait for the first two vehicles to pass, then drive into the lane.

Any time that you merge into city or highway traffic, you should wait for a gap in traffic large enough for your vehicle to get up to the speed of other traffic.

2. To help others see you when daylight begins to fade, you should use your:

Parking lights.

Low beam headlights.

Emergency flashers.

As daylight begins to fade, turn on your low beams to help others see you. Only use your high beam headlights in an open area where no other drivers are present.

3. If you have a sudden tire blowout:

Use the brakes lightly.

Pump the brakes.

Apply the brakes firmly.

If a tire suddenly goes flat while you are driving, hold the steering wheel tightly and keep the vehicle moving straight. Slow down gradually by taking your foot off the gas pedal and using the brakes lightly.

4. When changing lanes:

Check your side mirror and look over your shoulder to make sure the lane is clear.

Check the inside rearview mirror.

Slow down.

Before changing lanes, you should check your side mirrors and look over your shoulder to make sure it is safe to proceed.

5. Extra space in front of a large truck is needed for:

Other drivers to merge onto the freeway.

The truck driver to stop the vehicle.

Other drivers when they want to slow down.

Because they are larger, trucks take longer to stop than cars traveling at the same speed. Other drivers should not pull in front of a truck and then slow down or stop.

6. You should signal continuously while turning because it:

Is illegal to turn off your signal before completing a turn.

Lets other drivers know what your intentions are.

Is always unsafe to turn off a signal before completing a turn.

You should always signal when turning, changing lanes, slowing down, or stopping so that other drivers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians will know your intentions.
