17. Before switching on the ignition, you should:

Buckle your safety belt.

Be sure all passengers have buckled their safety belts.

Both of the above.

Develop a routine for entering and leaving your car. Before switching on the ignition, buckle your safety belt and see that all passengers do likewise.

18. You are merging onto an interstate highway. You should:

Select a safe gap and merge into the lane of traffic.

Merge across two lanes at once.

Always stop before entering the highway.

Anytime you want to merge with other drivers, you need to find a gap large enough for you to safely enter into the flow of traffic. You should not stop on the entrance ramp to an interstate highway unless there are no gaps into which you may safely merge.

19. At dawn or dusk and in rain or snow, it can be hard to see and be seen. A good way to let other drivers know you are there is to turn:

Up the instrumental panel lights.

On your parking lights.

On your headlights.

You must use your headlights at any time when conditions prevent you from seeing other vehicles and when it may be difficult for other drivers to see you. Always use your low beam headlights if weather conditions require you to use your windshield wipers.

20. If you are being followed too closely on a two-lane road:

Reduce your speed slowly to encourage the tailgater to drive around you.

Speed up to increase the distance between you and the other car.

Apply your brakes to slow down, then resume your original speed.

If you are being followed too closely by another driver, merge into a different lane. If there is no lane available for merging, wait until the road ahead is clear and slowly reduce your speed. This will encourage the tailgater to drive around you.

21. When passing a row of parked vehicles, you should:

Be prepared for a person or vehicle to unexpectedly enter your lane.

Expect all other drivers and pedestrians to respect your right-of-way.

Drive closely to the parked vehicles to allow more room for moving traffic.

Keep a space between your vehicle and parked vehicles. A person may step out of a parked vehicle or out from between the parked vehicles without looking. A driver may begin moving their vehicle before realizing you are there.

22. 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.

23. "Implied consent" means:

You must submit to a requested chemical test to determine your blood alcohol concentration (BAC).

You will submit to a field sobriety test to determine impairment.

You will submit to a physical examination before licensure.

Any person who drives or attempts to drive a motor vehicle on a roadway in Maryland consents to take a test determining the concentration of alcohol, or any other controlled dangerous substance, in their blood. The MVA will suspend the license of any driver who submits to the test and is determined to have at least a 0.08 percent BAC.

24. You can help keep the driver behind you a safe distance away from your vehicle by:

Driving 10 mph faster than the car behind you.

Driving 10 mph slower than the car behind you.

Maintaining a steady speed.

It is not always easy to maintain a safe distance behind your vehicle. However, you can help keep the driver behind you a safe distance away from your vehicle by maintaining a steady speed and signaling turns, lane changes, and deceleration in advance.

Pedestrians walking along the road ahead.

Pedestrian crossing ahead.

Pedestrians must not cross here.

Warning signs are usually yellow with black markings. This sign alerts drivers to where pedestrians may be crossing. If a pedestrian is crossing in a crosswalk marked with this sign, drivers must stop and remain stopped until the pedestrian is no longer in the crosswalk.
