1. When driving in fog, rain, or snow, use:

Low beams.

High beams.

Fog lights only.

Low beam headlights should be used in fog, rain, and snow. The light from high beams will reflect back to the driver under these weather conditions, causing a glare that will make it difficult to see ahead.

2. 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.

3. The driver ahead of you stops at a crosswalk. What should you do?

Cautiously pass the vehicle at 10 mph or slower.

Stop, proceeding only when all the pedestrians have crossed.

Change lanes, look carefully, and pass the stopped vehicle.

You must not pass a vehicle that is stopped at a crosswalk. There may be pedestrians crossing the street that you cannot see. Instead, stop, proceeding only after all pedestrians have crossed.

4. Broken yellow lines are used on streets and highways to:

Indicate no passing zones.

Separate lanes of traffic moving in the same direction.

Separate lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions.

Yellow lines separate traffic moving in opposite directions. Dashed lines on the pavement indicate that passing is permitted when safe.

5. When approaching an intersection with a flashing red light, drivers should:

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

Proceed, as they have the right-of-way.

Slow down but continue through the intersection without stopping.

A flashing red light at an intersection means you must stop completely before proceeding. Treat a flashing red light the same as you would a stop sign.

6. When a school bus is stopped ahead on your side of the road with its red lights flashing, you must:

Slow to a speed no faster than 10 mph.

Stop until the lights stop flashing.

Change lanes and pass cautiously.

The flashing overhead lights and stop arm on a school bus will be activated when the bus is stopped to load or unload students. If approaching a bus using these signals, you may not proceed until the red lights have stopped flashing and the stop arm has been retracted. Never pass a school bus that is dropping off or picking up students.

7. In traffic moving at 50 to 55 mph, you are least likely to have an accident if you:

Drive a few miles per hour faster than most other vehicles.

Stay within that speed range.

Drive a few miles per hour slower than most other vehicles.

You should adjust your speed to travel smoothly with the other traffic on a roadway (provided that the other traffic is driving within the posted speed limits). Remember that vehicles moving in the same direction at the same speed cannot hit each other. Crashes involving multiple vehicles often happen when some vehicles are traveling at different speeds than others.
