1. When driving on slick roads, you should:

Take turns more slowly than usual.

Change lanes quickly.

Accelerate quickly.

Brake hard.

While it is always dangerous to drive too fast on slippery roads, this is especially true when driving in turns and curves. Be sure to approach them more slowly in slippery conditions than you would under normal circumstances.

2. When driving on major highways:

Stay alert.

Keep your eyes moving.

Be ready to react to road hazards.

All of the above.

It is important to stay alert on highways and be ready to react to unexpected hazards. To avoid "highway hypnosis," you should avoid looking at any one thing for more than a few seconds.

3. You are driving on the roadway and hear a siren behind you. You should:

Stop where you are.

Pull over to the right and stop.

Speed up to get out of the way.

Slow down.

When you hear the siren or see the flashing lights of an emergency vehicle coming from behind your vehicle, you must create a clear path for the emergency vehicle and stop. Reduce your speed and safely pull over to the side of the road. If the emergency vehicle is directly behind your vehicle when you are in heavy traffic, keep moving slowly until you can get out of its way.

4. Which of the following commonly causes traffic accidents?

Inattentive driving

Excessive speed under the driving conditions

Following other vehicles too closely

All of the above

Driving too fast for conditions is a major cause of motor vehicle crashes. Being inattentive to surroundings can cause a driver to collide with other vehicles. Most rear-end collisions are caused by drivers following other vehicles too closely.

5. You want to turn left at an intersection. The light is green but oncoming traffic is heavy. You should:

Use the next intersection.

Wait at the crosswalk for traffic to clear.

Wait in the center of the intersection for traffic to clear.

Take the right-of-way since you have a green light.

When making a left turn where there is approaching traffic, you must wait for the approaching traffic to go through before you turn. You may enter the intersection to prepare for your left turn if the light is green and no other vehicle ahead of you plans to make a left turn.

6. Larger vehicles have:

Larger blind spots.

Smaller blind spots.

No blind spots.

The same blind spots as smaller vehicles.

The larger the vehicle, the larger the blind spots. Large trucks and SUVs have spots close to their rears that cannot be seen in their side or rearview mirrors.

You may make left turns.

You may make U-turns.

You may pass slow-moving traffic.

All of the above.

This sign indicates where a lane is reserved for the exclusive use of left-turning vehicles from either direction. Such a lane may not be used for passing or for through-traffic.
