1. As of August 1, 2008, what is the nighttime curfew for 16- and 17-year-old drivers?

10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

11 p.m. to 5 a.m.

12 a.m. to 5 a.m.

Unless the teen is traveling for employment, school, religious activities, or medical necessity, or if the individual is an assigned driver in the Safe Ride Program, 16- and 17-year-old drivers are not permitted to drive between the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.

2. Which of the following driving skills are affected by the use of alcohol and/or drugs?

Alertness and concentration.

Reaction time and coordination.

All of the above.

Any amount of alcohol acts as a depressant, slowing the function of the nervous system. It will reduce a person's alertness and ability to concentrate, increase their reaction time, and drastically reduce their coordination.

3. To know where traffic is behind you:

Frequently check your rearview mirror.

Turn and look out your back window.

Keep other vehicles out of your blind spots.

Drivers should check their rearview mirrors often to stay aware of the position of traffic behind them.

4. Double solid yellow lane markings mean that:

Neither lane may pass.

Both lanes may pass.

The lane to the right may pass.

Yellow lane markings indicate a separation of lanes where traffic is traveling in opposite directions. When you see double solid yellow lane markings, passing is prohibited from both directions.

All traffic must turn right.

All traffic must go straight.

A side road intersects ahead.

Warning signs provide notice to road users of a situation that might not be readily apparent and are usually yellow with black markings. This warning sign tells drivers to be alert to an intersecting side road ahead.

6. The conviction of a 16- or 17-year-old driver violating the electronic device law may result in:

A $500 fine.

A 10-day suspension.

A 30-day suspension.

By law, drivers under the age of 18 cannot use a cell phone or mobile electronic device while driving, even if it is “hands-free.” If convicted of violating the electronic device law, a 16- or 17-year-old driver may be required to take a drivers' retraining course. After completing operator retraining, an additional moving violation within three years of the completion date will result in a license suspension of at least 30 days.

7. At intersections with a "Yield" sign, you must:

Yield the right-of-way to cross traffic that is near enough to cause conflict.

Yield the right-of-way only to vehicles on your right.

Always slow down and proceed without stopping.

At a yield sign, you must slow down or stop, if necessary, and give the right-of-way to crossing or merging vehicles. Yield the right-of-way to any cross traffic that is close enough to cause conflict.
