Stop to rest or change drivers.

Drink coffee.

5. Streets and highways are most slippery:

When it has been raining hard for several hours.

When they are clean and dry.

Just after it starts to rain.

Driving during the first half hour of rainfall is dangerous because roadways become extremely slippery when the water mixes with oil and other chemicals on the road surfaces that have not yet washed away. Use extra caution when driving on slippery roads.

6. A red arrow pointing to the right on a traffic light means you may:

Turn in that direction after slowing and checking for traffic.

Not turn in that direction until the light turns green.

Turn in that direction after you come to a complete stop.

A red arrow means "stop." You must remain stopped until a green light or green arrow appears. Do not turn against a red arrow.

7. If you approach a traffic light with a red signal and a police officer directs you to go through the intersection without stopping, you should:

Stop until the light turns green.

Go through the intersection without stopping.

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

Instructions given by police officers directing traffic always override posted traffic signals and signs. Follow the officer's instructions.

8. Allow extra space in front of your vehicle when following a:

Station wagon.

Passenger vehicle.

Allow for extra space when driving behind a motorcycle. Motorcycles can stop more quickly than other vehicles can and you must have adequate room to stop if the motorcyclist brakes or falls off. Also, remember that motorcycles are difficult to see at night because they only have one tail light.
