17. If the driver of an oncoming vehicle fails to dim their headlights:

Look toward the center of the roadway.

Look toward the right side of the road.

Look straight ahead.

If an oncoming driver fails to dim their headlights, look toward the right side of the road. This will keep you from being blinded by the other vehicle’s headlights and allow you to see enough of the road to stay on course. Do not try to retaliate by keeping your bright lights on.

18. When approaching a steady yellow traffic light, drivers should:

Accelerate to avoid a red light.

Continue driving, as they have the right-of-way.

Slow to a stop, unless they are already within the intersection.

Check to see what the cars next to them are doing.

A steady yellow traffic light indicates that a red light is about to appear. Stop unless you are already within the intersection.

19. If a vehicle starts to skid on water, the driver should quickly apply the brakes.

True

False

If a vehicle skids while hydroplaning, the driver should try to regain control of the vehicle. If that is not possible, the driver should release the accelerator and ride out the skid. The driver should not immediately apply the brakes.

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.

21. If you reach an intersection where you wish to turn but you are not in the proper lane, you should:

Quickly cut across traffic to make your turn.

Turn on your blinker and make the turn from your current lane.

Drive to the next intersection and make your turn then.

Safely change lanes then put your vehicle in reverse to go back to the intersection.

Never make last-minute turns. If you reach an intersection where you wish to turn but you are not in the proper lane to make the turn, drive to the next intersection and then make the turn from the proper lane.

22. When driving in fog, you should use your high beam headlights.

True

False

You should use your low beam headlights when driving in fog. High beams will reflect back at the driver and lower visibility.

23. If you want to pass a pedestrian who is walking along the roadway and an oncoming vehicle is approaching, you should:

Slow down and let the oncoming vehicle pass before you pass the pedestrian.

Keep driving at a steady speed. The oncoming vehicle must stop for you.

Honk your horn to get the pedestrian to move over.

If possible, try to only deal with one roadway hazard at a time. If you want to pass a pedestrian but an oncoming vehicle is approaching, slow down and let the vehicle pass. You may then pass the pedestrian if it is safe to do so.

24. When approaching a steady green traffic light, drivers should:

Continue driving, unless there are vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection.

Stop if a police officer is nearby.

Treat the intersection like a four-way stop.

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

When approaching an intersection with a steady green traffic light, yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and vehicles still in the intersection. You may continue driving, but should approach the intersection at a speed that will allow you to slow down and stop if the light changes before you get there.
