1. If you are facing a green traffic light but the intersection ahead is blocked by traffic, you should:

Turn left and find another route.

Stay out of the intersection until traffic clears.

Follow the other vehicles and enter the intersection.

Even if you are facing a green traffic light, do not start across the intersection if there are other vehicles blocking your way. If you are caught in the intersection when the light changes to red, your vehicle will block cross traffic. You can get a ticket for blocking an intersection.

2. 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.

3. A vehicle suddenly cuts in front of you, creating a hazard. What should you do first?

Honk and step on the brake firmly.

Take your foot off the gas pedal.

Swerve into the lane next to you.

If a vehicle merges in front of you too closely, take your foot off of the accelerator. This will create space between you and the vehicle ahead without requiring you to slam on your brakes or swerve into another lane.

4. 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.

5. When arriving to an uncontrolled intersection at the same time as vehicles to your right and left, you should:

Yield the right-of-way to the vehicle on your left.

Yield the right-of-way to the vehicle on your right.

Wait until there are no vehicles at the intersection before proceeding.

If multiple vehicles arrive at the same time to an intersection that is not controlled by signs or signals, the driver on the right has the right-of-way. Drivers should then proceed in the order that they arrive to the intersection.

6. If you park facing uphill where there is no curb, set the parking brake and:

Turn your wheels toward the edge of the road.

Turn your wheels away from the edge of the road.

Keep your wheels facing straight.

When parking uphill on a road that does not have a curb, your front wheels should be turned to the right (toward the edge of the road). This will ensure that the vehicle will roll off of the road if the brakes fail.

7. If you approach a traffic light with a red signal and a police officer directs you to go through the intersection without stopping, you should:

Stop until the light turns green.

Go through the intersection without stopping.

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

Instructions given by police officers directing traffic always override posted traffic signals and signs. Follow the officer's instructions.

Are approaching a railroad crossing and should prepare to stop.

Will always stop at the upcoming railroad crossing.

Should stop and wait for a signal before crossing the railroad tracks.

This sign indicates that you are approaching a railroad crossing. You must look, listen, slow down, and prepare to stop. Wait for any trains to pass before you proceed.
