17. 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.

18. At a railroad crossing, you must:

Watch for vehicles that must stop at all railroad crossings (school buses, trucks carrying hazardous materials, etc.).

Watch for multiple trains.

Both of the above.

You must approach all railroad crossings with extreme caution and cross only when you know that no train is coming from either direction. Be aware of vehicles that must stop at all railroad crossings, such as school buses and trucks carrying hazardous materials.

19. Which of the following statements is correct?

Use your left foot to brake.

Use your right foot for both braking and accelerating your vehicle.

You should always brake abruptly to ensure stopping.

Use your right foot for both braking and accelerating. You should apply the brakes gently with increasing pressure so that your vehicle stops gradually and smoothly.

20. The proper way to make a right turn is to:

Signal, slow down, and get into the lane closest to the centerline before turning.

Signal, slow down, and get into the lane closest to the right curb before turning.

Approach the corner in the lane nearest the right curb, but move over toward the middle of the street before turning.

Before beginning a right turn, use the appropriate signal to give surrounding drivers adequate notice of your intentions. Slow down and approach the intersection from the right lane, staying as close as is practical to the right curb or edge of the roadway.

21. If you want to enter the freeway but you don't see a gap in traffic, you should:

Maintain your speed and force the other drivers to create a gap.

Slow down on the ramp to wait for a gap.

Stop at the end of the ramp to wait for a gap.

If you want to enter the freeway but do not see a space for your vehicle in traffic, slow down on the ramp to wait for a gap. Do not drive to the end of the ramp and wait for a gap or you will not have enough room to accelerate to the speed of traffic before entering the roadway.

22. Which of these statements is true about roadwork zones?

Fines are the same for violations committed in work zones as they are under normal traffic conditions.

You must "Slow for the Cone Zone."

Slow down only if you think workers are present.

Reduce your speed and be prepared to slow down or stop for highway equipment. Driving carefully through work zones improves safety for drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and road workers.

23. There are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right. You should steer:

Closer to the oncoming vehicles than the parked vehicles.

Closer to the parked vehicles than the oncoming vehicles.

A middle course between the oncoming and parked vehicles.

If there are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right, the best thing to do is to split the difference. Steer a middle course between the oncoming cars and the parked cars.
