1. This road sign means:

Road widens ahead.

Lane reduction. The right lane ends soon and traffic should merge left.

Highway entrance ramp ahead.

A warning sign is usually yellow with black markings. This sign warns that the number of lanes ahead is reduced and that traffic will need to merge to the left.

2. When passing, you should move back into the right lane when:

You are one vehicle length ahead of the passed vehicle.

You can see both headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror.

You are 50 feet ahead of the passed vehicle.

Do not pass unless you have enough space to return to the driving lane. Before you return to the driving lane, be sure you have enough room between yourself and the vehicle you have passed. When you can see both headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror, it is safe to return to the driving lane.

Stop sign ahead.

Railroad crossing ahead.

Construction ahead.

A round sign always indicates that you are approaching a railroad crossing.

No right turn.

Right turn on red light permitted with caution.

All traffic must turn right at next intersection.

Signs with a red circle and diagonal line over a black symbol indicate the the action represented by the symbol is prohibited. In this case, the sign indicates that right turns are prohibited.

5. If all occupants have exited a vehicle, the engine may be left running:

Under no circumstances.

If the driver will only be away for a couple minutes.

If the driver will be away for less than an hour.

The law requires you to turn off the engine and remove the key from the ignition when leaving a vehicle. Always lock your vehicle when leaving it, even if you are only going to be away for a short period of time.

6. Excessive speed:

Saves time so you can get to your destination more quickly.

Helps you maneuver around obstacles.

Increases the likelihood of serious bodily injury and death.

Excessive speed is one of the most common contributing factors to vehicle crashes. Excessive speed does not save time and often leads to high-risk decision-making.

7. You are driving on the freeway. The vehicle in front of you is a large truck. You should drive:

Closely behind the truck in bad weather because the driver can see farther ahead than you can.

Farther behind the truck than you would when following a passenger vehicle.

No more than one car length behind the truck so the driver can see you.

When you follow so closely behind a truck that you cannot see the truck driver’s side view mirrors, the trucker cannot see you and has no way of knowing you are there. Tailgating a truck, or any vehicle, is dangerous because you take away your own cushion of safety if the vehicle in front of you stops quickly.
