17. A flashing red traffic light at an intersection means:

The same thing as a yield sign.

The light is about to turn green.

The same thing as a stop sign.

A flashing red light at an intersection means drivers are required to come to a complete stop, yield to traffic and pedestrians, and proceed when the way is clear. The same is true at a stop sign.

18. When you drive through a construction zone, you should:

Stop to watch the workers.

Decrease your following distance.

Pass the construction zone carefully and not “rubberneck."

To avoid contributing to chronic traffic congestion, you should not "rubberneck." That is, you should not slow down to look at out-of-the-ordinary things.

19. When driving at night, you should:

Always use your high beams.

Look directly at the headlights of an oncoming vehicle.

Increase your following distance.

Increase your following distance when it is difficult to see due to darkness. Use headlights to increase visibility, following the rules for proper use of high beams and low beams. Avoid looking directly at the headlights of an oncoming vehicle to avoid being blinded by the glare.

20. 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.

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.

21. It is illegal for a person 21 years of age or older to drive with a minimum blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of:

0.05 percent.

0.08 percent.

0.02 percent.

For drivers age 21 or older, it is illegal to operate a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 percent or higher. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is not only illegal, but dangerous.

22. Tailgating other drivers (driving too closely to their rear bumper):

Can frustrate other drivers and make them angry.

Cannot result in a traffic citation.

Reduces collisions by preventing being "cut off."

Tailgating is a common behavior that can lead to aggressive driving, and so it should be avoided. Drivers may face legal consequences for driving unsafely.

The lane must turn right.

A right turn is permitted on a green arrow only.

Some warning signs have a fluorescent yellow-green background. These signs warn of upcoming conditions, including roads with curves and sharp turns.

24. You want to park uphill on a two-way road and there is no curb. Which direction do you turn your front wheels?

Straight ahead

Right, toward the side of the road

Left, toward the center of the road

When parking either uphill or downhill on a road that has no curb, you should turn your wheels so that the vehicle will roll away from the center of the road if the brakes fail.
