17. If a vehicle is equipped with airbags:

Seat belts should still be worn.

Seat belts do not need to be worn.

Seat belts should be worn behind the back.

Airbags are important safety devices that provide protection in crashes. For best protection, a vehicle's lap and shoulder belts should be used in combination with airbags.

18. When driving on the highway, consistently looking far ahead of your vehicle:

Helps you keep up with traffic.

Reduces the need for last-minute braking or turning.

Allows you to spot upcoming police officers.

To avoid the need for last-minute braking or turning, consistently watch the road far ahead of your vehicle. By looking ahead and being ready to stop or change lanes if needed, you can drive more safely, save fuel, and help keep traffic moving at a steady pace.

19. When changing lanes:

Rely on the rearview mirror.

Look over your shoulder in the direction you plan to move.

Rely on the left side mirror.

When changing lanes, glance over your shoulder to check for traffic in your blind spot. You may need to look several times before changing lanes. You must keep track of what traffic is doing in front of you as well as what traffic is doing in the lane next to you.

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.

21. You have allowed the wheels of your vehicle to run off the edge of the pavement. What should you do first?

Turn the front wheels slightly to the left to edge the car back onto the pavement.

Hold the steering wheel firmly, release the gas pedal, and gently apply the brakes.

Apply the brakes and turn the front wheels sharply to the left.

If your vehicle leaves the roadway, hold the steering wheel firmly, release the gas pedal, and gently apply the brakes. Wait until your speed has reduced, check the traffic, and look for a place to safely return to the roadway by merging back into traffic. Overcompensating by jerking the wheel to return to the roadway can cause you to lose control of your vehicle or may cause your car to go into other lanes of traffic.

22. 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.

23. When changing lanes, you should never:

Look over your shoulder to check your blind spot.

Change lanes abruptly or spontaneously.

Check for other vehicles moving into the same lane.

When changing lanes, you must be sure that there are no vehicles in the space you want to enter. Check for other vehicles behind and to the side of your vehicle by checking your mirrors and blind spots. Always use the proper turn signal before changing lanes to allow surrounding vehicles time to react to your movements.

24. If you are about to be hit from the rear, you should consider each of the following, except for:

Applying your brakes.

Letting go of the steering wheel.

Pressing your head firmly against the head restraint.

If your vehicle is hit from the rear while you are in forward motion, your body will be thrown backward. Press yourself against the back of your seat and put your head against the head restraint to prevent whiplash. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and be ready to apply your brakes to avoid being pushed into another vehicle.
