Before you start the test, please answer the question below regarding your insurance status.

Without insurance you will not be able to drive in Maryland

1. You are approaching a green traffic light and traffic is blocking the intersection. What is the best thing to do?

Partially enter the intersection to establish your right-of-way.

Don't enter the intersection until you can get completely across.

Continue into the intersection and wait for traffic to clear.

Even if your light is green, you must not enter an intersection unless you can get completely through the intersection before the light turns red. If you block the intersection, you can be cited.

2. You are approaching an intersection with a steady yellow traffic light. If you have not already entered the intersection, you should:

Speed up to beat the red light.

Reduce you speed and proceed carefully through the intersection.

Come to a safe stop.

When a steady yellow light appears on a traffic signal, you should prepare to stop. If you are already within the intersection, you should clear the intersection as quickly as possible.

3. Vehicles stopped behind a school bus with its red lights flashing must remain stopped until:

All students are off the bus.

The stop arm is retracted.

The stop arm is retracted and the bus resumes motion.

When a school bus is flashing its red lights and has its stop arm extended, motorists must come to a full stop until the lights are turned off, the stop arm is withdrawn, and the bus begins moving again.

Crossroad ahead.

Merge.

Stop.

This sign indicates that there is a crossroad ahead.

5. You see pedestrians near the road. You should:

Sound your horn and maintain your speed.

Speed up to clear the area quickly.

Slow down and pass with caution.

Watch for any pedestrian who may cross your path. If you see pedestrians near the road where you are driving, slow down and be prepared to stop, if necessary.

6. You should use your horn when:

Another vehicle is in your way.

It may help prevent a collision.

Another driver makes a mistake.

Only use your horn when it is necessary to avoid collisions. Do not use your horn if a driver or bicyclist is moving slowly and you want him or her to drive faster or get out of your way.

7. Collisions are more likely to happen when:

All vehicles are traveling at about the same speed.

One lane of traffic is traveling faster than the other lanes.

One vehicle is traveling faster or slower than the flow of traffic.

Collisions are more likely to happen when one driver moves faster or slower than the other vehicles on the road. Driving faster than other traffic increases your chance of being involved in a collision. Driving more slowly than other traffic is also dangerous because it can increase the risk of a rear-end collision with your vehicle or cause other drivers to swerve to avoid hitting you.
