1. If you drink alcohol socially, what helps ensure safe driving?

Drink coffee before driving.

Ride home with a friend who has not been drinking.

Take a cold shower before driving.

Stop drinking one half hour before driving.

One strategy to avoid driving while impaired or intoxicated is to arrange for a ride home with a friend who does not drink. Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower cannot reduce your blood alcohol content or reduce the effects of alcohol. On average, it takes about an hour for the body to eliminate the alcohol from a single drink.

2. Road rage and aggressive driving may be reduced by:

Allowing extra travel time.

Obeying posted speed limits.

Using proper turn signals.

All of the above.

As an increasing number of drivers populate the roadways, road rage becomes more prevalent. To help prevent road rage, a driver should use proper turn signals, obey posted speed limits, and allow plenty of travel time.

Stop ahead.

Buggy warning.

Limited parking.

Do not block intersection.

Warning signs prepare drivers for upcoming road conditions and hazards and are usually yellow with black markings. This sign tells drivers that there is an upcoming stop sign and that they should prepare to come to a complete stop before proceeding.

4. When exiting a highway, you should slow down:

On the main road, just before the exit lane.

Once you see a toll booth.

Once you have moved into the exit lane.

When you first see the exit sign.

When exiting a highway, you should get into the exit lane well in advance. Do not begin to slow down until after you have moved into the exit lane.

5. You may drive across a dashed white line:

At any time.

Only during daylight hours.

When it is safe to change lanes.

Only when passing a motorcycle.

Traffic lanes moving in the same direction are separated by broken white lines. You may cross over dashed lines to pass, if it is safe to do so.

6. Emergency vehicles:

Have the right-of-way when using sirens, horns, and/or flashing lights.

May use a loudspeaker to give instructions.

May follow each other.

All of the above.

You must yield the right-of-way to police cars, fire engines, ambulances, or any other emergency vehicles using a siren or air horn and a red or blue flashing light. Follow any instructions given over the emergency vehicles' loudspeakers. Emergency vehicles often follow each other so you should proceed only when you are certain the way is clear.

7. When you hear the siren or see the flashing lights of an approaching emergency vehicle, you must:

Slow down until it passes you.

Drive to the right side of the road and stop.

Motion for the emergency vehicle to pass you.

Merge into the right lane and continue driving.

Yield the right-of-way to any approaching emergency vehicle that is using its flashing lights or siren, regardless of its direction of travel. You must immediately drive to the right side of the road and stop until the emergency vehicle has passed. If you are within an intersection, pass through the intersection before coming to a stop on the right side of the road.

8. When you approach a railroad crossing without flashing warning signals or crossing gates, you should:

Cross the tracks immediately and as quickly as possible.

Always stop before crossing the tracks.

Prepare to yield to any train at the crossing.

Speed up to beat any oncoming train.

Always be prepared to yield to any oncoming trains before crossing railroad tracks, particularly if there are no lights or gates controlling the crossing. Never start to cross the tracks until there is room for your entire vehicle on the other side of the tracks. Due to the risk of a vehicle stalling, it is not wise to shift gears when crossing railroad tracks.
