Only the passage of time can remove alcohol and its impairing effects from the body.

18. “Highway hypnosis” is a driving condition that can result from:

Staring at the roadway for long periods of time.

Frequent rest stops.

Too much sleep the night before your trip.

Short trips on expressways.

"Highway hypnosis” happens when you stare straight ahead at the roadway for long periods of time and stop actively scanning ahead, behind, and around your vehicle. This can lead you to zone out, making you very likely to crash into traffic slowing or stopping ahead of you.

19. Driving under the influence of any medication which impairs your driving is permitted:

Under no circumstances.

If you don't feel drowsy.

If it is prescribed by a physician.

It is illegal to drive under the influence of any substance that impairs your ability to drive safely. This includes alcohol, prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, and illegal drugs.

20. What can you do to reduce road rage?

Always signal your intention when changing lanes.

Talk on your cell phone while driving.

Use your horn frequently.

To do your part to prevent road rage, you should follow laws, signs, signals, and pavement markings. Always signal your intention when changing lanes.

21. Distracted driving may be caused by:

Eating, drinking, or smoking.

Talking or texting on a cellular phone.

Changing a radio station or CD.

All of the above.

It is estimated that drivers make 200 decisions for every mile traveled, making it vital that drivers focus their full attention on the task of driving. Performing any additional task can create a dangerous distraction.

22. If you begin to feel tired while driving, the best thing to do is to:

Get some coffee.

Open your window.

Stop driving.

Turn on the radio.

Being fatigued while driving is similar in danger to driving under the influence of alcohol. If you begin to feel tired while driving, the best thing to do is to stop driving.

23. "No passing zone" signs tell drivers:

To speed up slightly.

That it is not safe to pass.

To maintain a steady speed.

If you come across a "No passing zone" sign, it is not legal to pass in the indicated area. You are likely driving in an area with restricted visibility where it would be unsafe to pass another vehicle.

24. If you are getting tired while driving, you should:

Stop and either get rest or change drivers.

Drink something with caffeine.

Open a window.

To avoid the dangers of fatigued driving, take breaks every hour or so during a long trip. If possible, share driving responsibilities with another person so you can each sleep while the other person drives.

A left turn.

An upcoming stop.

A right turn.

Bicycles do not have turn signals so bicyclists use hand and arm signals to alert other drivers to their intentions. If a bicyclist puts their left arm straight out, they are signaling that they intend to turn left.
