1. When changing lanes you should not:

Check your side and rearview mirrors.

Give a turn signal to signal your intentions.

Check for other drivers who may be moving into the same lane as you.

Use your cell phone to contact the police to determine if the road ahead is clear.

Before changing lanes, check your side and rearview mirrors for traffic approaching you from behind. Use your turn signal to let other drivers know you plan to change lanes. Check for other drivers who also may be moving into the same lane.

2. A point accumulation advisory letter will be sent to you if you:

Have too many points taken off of your driving record.

Accumulate a total of four points in 12 months.

Do not score enough points on your driving test.

Fail the written test.

If you accumulate a total of four points within 12 months, you will be sent a point accumulation advisory letter. If you accumulate a total of eight or more points within 18 months, your driving privileges will be suspended.

3. Drinking alcohol and driving is:

A minor traffic safety problem.

A serious traffic safety problem.

Safe if you have only had a few drinks.

Only dangerous to the driver who drinks.

Driving while impaired or intoxicated is a serious traffic safety problem. Safe driving is not possible when you drink alcohol or take other drugs. Driving under the influence is dangerous both to you and to others on the road.

4. Worn or bald tires:

Can make turning more difficult.

Are likely to hydroplane.

Can increase your stopping distance.

All of the above.

Worn or bald tires can increase your stopping distance and make turning more difficult. Tires without adequate tread also increase the risk of hydroplaning.

5. A steady yellow signal light means:

The traffic signal is changing from green to red.

You should slam on your brakes.

You should increase your speed.

The car in front of you is going too slowly.

A steady yellow light tells you the traffic signal is changing from green to red. Slow down and stop for a steady yellow light, unless you are already within the intersection or cannot safely stop before entering the intersection.

6. The best way to deal with tailgaters is to:

Speed up to increase the distance between you and the tailgater.

Slam on your brakes to get the other driver to back off.

Change lanes or gradually slow down to encourage them to pass.

Ignore them.

Check the traffic behind you several times a minute to know if another driver is tailgating, approaching too fast, or trying to pass. If another car is following you too closely, slow down and let it pass. Most rear-end collisions are caused by vehicles following too closely.
