1. If you need to drive in foggy weather:

Turn on your low beam headlights.

Turn on your hazard lights.

It is okay to drive at the maximum speed limit.

Do not drive at a speed above 10 miles per hour.

You are required to use your headlights during the day when visibility is reduced to 500 feet or less. When you first turn on your headlights, be sure they are adjusted to the low beam setting. Using high beams in fog or rain will cause the light to reflect back into your eyes, lowering visibility even more.

2. What do speed limit signs indicate?

Potential driving speeds for the area

The maximum or minimum speed that is legally allowed to be driven

The speed drivers should drive in heavy traffic

The speed drivers should drive under poor conditions

Speed limit signs indicate the maximum or minimum safe speed that is allowed to be driven on a roadway. The maximum limits are for ideal conditions and you must reduce your speed when conditions require it.

3. A driver should be extra alert to motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians because:

They’re difficult to see in traffic.

They obey different traffic laws than larger motor vehicles.

They always have the right-of-way.

They don’t have rearview mirrors.

In many collisions with motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians, drivers reported that they were looking but still did not see the smaller vehicle or pedestrian. These can be more difficult to spot in traffic than passenger vehicles because they are smaller, may move faster, and have less noticeable lighting. To prevent collisions with these smaller and less protected road users, drivers should always be alert to the presence of motorcycles, bikes, and pedestrians.

4. What is a "No zone?"

A designated no passing zone

A one-way traffic area

The blind spot of a large vehicle

An area designated for motor vehicles

"No zones" are the large blind spots around trucks and other large vehicles. Drivers of smaller vehicles should avoid lingering in "No zones."

5. When two vehicles enter an intersection from different highways at the same time, which vehicle must yield the right-of-way?

Either one

The vehicle on the left

The vehicle on the right

Neither

At intersections that are controlled by signs or signals and at intersections that are uncontrolled, the driver on the left must yield the right-of-way to the driver on the right when two vehicles arrive to the intersection at the same time.

6. If your car starts to skid, turn your steering wheel:

To keep the front wheels straight.

In the direction you want the vehicle to go.

In the opposite direction of the skid.

In any direction. It doesn't matter.

If your vehicle goes into a skid, you should turn the steering wheel in the direction you want the vehicle to go. As soon as the vehicle begins to straighten out, turn the steering wheel back the other way.

7. When using a roundabout, drivers should:

Yield to traffic already in the roundabout.

Yield to entering traffic.

Drive in a clockwise direction.

Stop in the middle of the roundabout.

A roundabout is a circular intersection that usually does not include a traffic signal and flows in a counterclockwise direction around a central island. Motorists must enter from the right, yielding to traffic already in the roundabout, and follow the circle to the right until the desired roadway is reached.
