17. When turning left at an intersection:

You should always yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

Oncoming traffic and pedestrians should yield to you.

You should never yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

When turning left at an intersection, yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Once the intersection is clear and applicable signals allow, you may complete the turn.

18. To avoid traction loss on wet roads, you should:

Make abrupt turns.

Apply the brakes firmly.

Slow down.

To prevent hydroplaning, lower your speed in response to wet roads and keep your tires in good condition. If you detect a loss of control, take your foot off the gas, do not apply the brakes, maintain the direction of the vehicle, and allow the vehicle to slow to a manageable speed.

19. When in a vehicle, wear a seat belt:

On long trips.

All the time.

On high-speed highways.

Maryland Motor Vehicle Law requires that the driver and the front seat passenger must always wear a seat belt. In addition, any individual under the age of 16 must wear a seat belt or be restrained in a child safety seat, regardless of seating position.

20. If your vehicle has a two-part safety belt system, you should:

Use only the lap belt.

Use both the lap and shoulder belts.

Use only the shoulder belt.

If your vehicle has a two-part seat belt system, be sure to wear both the lap belt and the shoulder belt. Wearing either part alone greatly reduces your protection. If you have an automatic shoulder belt, be sure to buckle your lap belt as well.

21. You must obey instructions from school crossing guards:

At all times.

Only during school hours.

Unless you do not see any children present.

Drivers should be alert to the presence of crossing guards when near a school and must always obey their instructions.

22. Which of the following are factors commonly contributing to traffic crashes?

Exceeding the posted speed limit and driving too fast for conditions or circumstances.

Getting adequate rest and staying alert.

Scanning the environment and staying focused on the driving task.

Driving above the speed limit, driving too far below the speed limit, and driving too fast for conditions are all actions that commonly contribute to traffic accidents. Always drive with the general flow of traffic, within legal speed limits.

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.

24. Driving more slowly than surrounding traffic is:

A good idea if the weather is bad.

Appropriate if you don’t know the speed limit.

Often a hazard because other drivers may become frustrated and try to pass you.

Driving more slowly than other traffic can be dangerous. Drivers behind you may become impatient and will be tempted to take dangerous risks to pass you.

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.
