At a railroad crossing marked with this sign, a driver should look both ways, listen for any trains, and be prepared to stop if any trains are nearby. Never try to outdrive an oncoming train.

You may never stop your vehicle there.

The road to the right is for one-way traffic only.

That due to upcoming roadwork, there is a detour to the right.

Slow down because the road ahead changes direction at an extreme angle.

There is a crossroad to your right.

This sign indicates that the road ahead changes direction at an extreme angle (in this case, to the right). Before you reach such an extreme curve, you should slow down as much as you would when making a turn at an intersection.

4. A solid white line down the center of a two-lane road indicates:

Lanes are moving in opposite directions and drivers are not permitted to pass.

Lanes are moving in opposite directions and drivers are permitted to pass when it is safe to do so.

Lanes are moving in the same direction and drivers are not permitted to pass.

Lanes are moving in the same direction and drivers are permitted to pass when it is safe to do so.

White lines are used to separate traffic moving in the same direction. Solid lines indicate that drivers are not permitted to pass.

5. A person walking with a white cane or guide dog is likely to be:

A deaf person.

A person involved with a traffic study.

A blind person.

None of the above.

Drivers must always yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian when the pedestrian is a blind person who is using a white cane or guide dog.

Stop and yield to pedestrians and cross traffic.

Stop and immediately proceed.

Slow down and be prepared to stop.

Come to a full stop at an intersection controlled by this sign. Stop at the marked stop line or before entering the crosswalk or intersection. Let other vehicles or pedestrians pass if they are in your path, then proceed.

7. 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.

8. The most effective safety restraints in a traffic crash are:

Only a lap and shoulder belt.

Only an airbag.

Both a lap/shoulder belt and an airbag.

No safety restraints.

Safety belts can double your chance of surviving a crash and more than double your chance of avoiding serious injury. Airbags, when used properly with safety belts, provide additional protection in a front-end crash. You should wear both shoulder and lap belts.
