1. If it is necessary to make an emergency stop while driving on an interstate, you should:

Sound your horn at passing cars to get their attention.

Get out of your vehicle and flag down the first vehicle that passes.

Pull off the road, turn on your emergency flashers, and stay in your vehicle, if you can.

If you must stop on the shoulder of the interstate or highway, turn on your emergency flashers to warn other drivers and stay inside your vehicle, if you can. The extremely high speed of traffic makes standing or walking along an interstate highway very dangerous.

2. Unless otherwise posted, the maximum speed limit on a rural interstate is:

70 mph.

55 mph.

40 mph.

When driving on a rural interstate, the speed limit is 70 miles per hour. If a different speed limit is posted, follow the posted speed limit.

3. There is no crosswalk and you see a pedestrian crossing your lane ahead. You should:

Make eye contact with and then pass the pedestrian.

Slow down as you pass the pedestrian.

Stop and let the pedestrian finish crossing the street.

At an intersection where traffic is not controlled by traffic signal lights, drivers are required to yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within any crosswalk, marked or unmarked. Even if there is no crosswalk, yield to the pedestrian.

4. When crossing a sidewalk to enter traffic from an alley or driveway, drivers should:

Stop only if pedestrians are on the sidewalk.

Stop before driving onto the sidewalk or sidewalk area.

Expect pedestrians on the sidewalk to yield the right-of-way.

When leaving an alley, driveway, or parking lot to enter a roadway, you must stop before driving onto a sidewalk or sidewalk area. Pedestrians and existing traffic have the right-of-way.

5. At a crosswalk:

You must yield to pedestrians.

Pedestrians must yield to you.

Construction workers must yield to you.

Pedestrians have the right-of-way at street crossings but must obey traffic control signals. Where a traffic signal is not present, vehicles must stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk, whether it is marked or unmarked.

6. There are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right. You should steer:

Closer to the oncoming vehicles than the parked vehicles.

Closer to the parked vehicles than the oncoming vehicles.

A middle course between the oncoming and parked vehicles.

If there are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right, the best thing to do is to split the difference. Steer a middle course between the oncoming cars and the parked cars.

Keep right.

Keep left.

Pass with caution.

Warning signs are usually yellow with black markings. This sign indicates that a divided highway is beginning and cars should keep to the right.

8. A broken yellow centerline means that:

Passing is not permitted.

Passing on the right is permitted when the way ahead is clear.

Passing on the left is permitted when the way ahead is clear.

A broken yellow centerline means that a driver may cross the centerline to pass another vehicle on the left as long as there is no oncoming traffic. Drivers should never cross a solid yellow centerline in order to pass.
