1. If you drink alcohol socially, what helps ensure safe driving?

Drink coffee before driving.

Ride home with a friend who has not been drinking.

Take a cold shower before driving.

Stop drinking one half hour before driving.

One strategy to avoid driving while impaired or intoxicated is to arrange for a ride home with a friend who does not drink. Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower cannot reduce your blood alcohol content or reduce the effects of alcohol. On average, it takes about an hour for the body to eliminate the alcohol from a single drink.

2. If two drivers arrive at the same time to an open intersection:

The driver on the right has the right-of-way.

The driver on the left has the right-of-way.

One driver may continue driving without stopping.

One driver should honk to indicate that they are giving up the right-of-way.

If you arrive to an open intersection at the same time as a vehicle to your right, you should yield the right-of-way to that vehicle. You may then proceed when it is safe to do so.

Trucks only.

Trucks are entering the highway.

Upcoming hill.

Trucks have the right-of-way.

Warning signs are usually diamond-shaped with black markings on a yellow background. They alert drivers to upcoming hazards. This sign indicates that drivers are approaching a steep hill and should prepare to adjust their speeds to continue to drive safely.

4. When a traffic signal light turns green, you should:

Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians.

Accelerate as quickly as possible.

Back up slowly.

Not move until another driver waves you on.

A green light tells you that you can go through the intersection. However, you must first yield the right-of-way to traffic and pedestrians who are still in the intersection.

5. The most important thing to remember about speed management and curves is that you must:

Drive at the posted speed limit as you enter the curve, then slow down at the sharpest part of the curve.

Slow down before you enter the curve.

Accelerate gently before you enter the curve.

Drive at the posted speed limit before, throughout, and after the curve.

The most important thing to remember about driving in curves is that your vehicle’s inertia may make it difficult to turn. To maintain control, it is essential that you slow down before entering the curve.

6. What are the colors of warning signs indicating upcoming hazards?

Black letters or symbols on a white background

Black letters or symbols on a yellow background

White letters or symbols on a blue background

White letters or symbols on a green background

Warning signs that indicate approaching hazards are usually yellow with black lettering or symbols. Warning signs in work zones are orange with black lettering or symbols.

7. To avoid collisions with vehicles in your blind spots, you should:

Quickly turn your head to see if your blind spot is clear before changing lanes.

Adjust your rearview mirrors every few minutes.

Honk your horn right before turning or changing lanes.

None of the above.

Before turning or changing lanes, turn your head and glance over your shoulder in the direction of your move to see if your blind spot is clear. Never rely on your mirrors alone.

Merging traffic.

Multiple turns.

Lane shifting.

Do not block intersection.

Warning signs prepare drivers for upcoming road conditions and hazards and are usually yellow with black markings. This sign alerts drivers to potential traffic merging from the right. Drivers should prepare to allow the traffic to merge safely.
