1. “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.

2. When towing a trailer large enough to obstruct your inside rearview mirror, you are required to:

Have an outside rearview mirror installed on the driver’s side of your vehicle.

Have an outside rearview mirror installed on the side of your vehicle opposite the driver.

Have outside rearview mirrors installed on both sides of your vehicle.

Have a person in the vehicle to clear you for right turns.

If you are towing a trailer that is large enough to obstruct your view of the road through your inside rearview mirror, you must have outside rearview mirrors of proper size installed on your vehicle. These rearview mirrors should be added to both sides of the vehicle.

3. A steady green light at an intersection means that you:

Must slow down and prepare to stop.

Must stop and check for oncoming traffic before proceeding.

May drive through the intersection if the road is clear.

May not turn right.

A steady green light means you may drive through the intersection if the road is clear. You may also turn right or left on a steady green light unless a sign prohibits the turn. When turning, you must yield to other vehicles and pedestrians within the intersection.

4. You notice that the driver in the vehicle ahead of you is driving with one hand and talking to a passenger. You should:

Give the vehicle extra space.

Know that the driver in the vehicle ahead is reducing their safety margin by being an inattentive driver.

Avoid following the driver's example.

All of the above.

Do not become distracted by looking at passengers, attempting to find something in your vehicle, looking at reading material, sightseeing, or daydreaming while driving. If a driver near you seems distracted, allow them extra space because the risk of an accident is increased by their inattentiveness.

5. You are driving up a hill and are approaching a heavy truck from the rear. You should know that:

The truck may be traveling at a speed slower than the posted speed limit.

You may not be able to safely pass the truck.

You may not be able to legally pass the truck.

All of the above.

Drivers must be aware that large vehicles often travel at a speed slower than the posted speed limit, especially when driving on an incline, and should use caution when approaching a large vehicle from the rear. When on a hill with limited visibility, it is unlawful to pass another vehicle.

6. You may avoid the risks of alcohol-related crashes by:

Deciding before you start drinking that you are not going to drive.

Simply saying, "No thanks, I'm driving," if someone offers you a drink.

Calling a taxi.

Doing any of the above.

The only way to avoid the risks of drinking and driving is to decide before you start drinking that you are not going to drive. Because alcohol affects your judgement, it will be harder for you to make safe decisions after you have started drinking.
