1. Where should drivers be particularly alert to children?

School zones and playgrounds

Residential neighborhoods

All of the above locations

You must use extreme caution wherever children are playing or gathering. This means that you must use caution not only around schools and playgrounds, but also in neighborhoods, where children may be playing in the streets.

2. When stopping on snow or ice, drivers who are operating vehicles equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) should:

Pump the brakes.

Press and hold the brake pedal firmly.

Stay off the brakes and wait for the car to drift to a stop.

When driving a vehicle equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), a driver should press the brake pedal firmly when stopping on a snowy or icy surface. The ABS will pump the brakes more rapidly than a driver would be able to.

3. You should increase the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead when you:

Are following a small passenger vehicle.

Are being tailgated by another driver.

Are driving more slowly than the posted speed limit.

When being tailgated, create extra space in front of your vehicle and do not brake suddenly. Slow down gradually or merge into another lane to prevent a collision with the tailgater.

4. When a gate at a railroad crossing is lowering, you should:

Speed up and cross the tracks before the gate lowers completely.

Come to a complete stop and wait.

Drive around the gate.

You must stop at a railroad crossing if the gate is lowering. It is unsafe to do otherwise.

5. As you approach the top of a hill, you should:

Speed up slightly.

Prepare to stop, if needed.

Maintain a steady speed.

You may not know what is on the other side of a hill or just around a curve, even if you have driven the road many times. If a vehicle is stalled just out of sight on the roadway, you must be able to stop. Whenever you come to a hill or curve, adjust your speed so you can stop if necessary.

6. You may cross double yellow lines to pass another vehicle if the:

Vehicle in front of you moves to the right to let you pass.

Yellow line next to your side of the road is broken.

Yellow line next to the opposite side of the road is broken.

A broken yellow line in the center of the road indicates that traffic next to the broken yellow line may pass, if it is safe to do so.

7. "No passing zone" signs tell drivers:

To speed up slightly.

That it is not safe to pass.

To maintain a steady speed.

If you come across a "No passing zone" sign, it is not legal to pass in the indicated area. You are likely driving in an area with restricted visibility where it would be unsafe to pass another vehicle.

8. You may legally block an intersection:

If you entered the intersection on the green light.

During rush hour traffic.

Under no circumstances.

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