1. If you are driving near a motorcycle, you must:

Allow the motorcycle to use a complete lane.

Drive on the shoulder beside the motorcycle.

Allow the motorcycle to use only half of a lane.

Pass using the same lane as the motorcycle.

A motorcycle is a full-size vehicle with the same privileges as any other vehicle on the roadway. You should allow a motorcyclist a full lane width. Although it may seem as though there is enough room in the traffic lane for a larger vehicle and a motorcycle, remember that the motorcycle needs room to maneuver safely.

2. The most effective thing you can do to reduce your risk of being injured or killed in a traffic crash is to:

Wear your seat belt.

Limit your driving to weekdays.

Stay in the right lane on multilane highways.

Limit your driving to hours between 3:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m.

Wearing your seat belt is the single most effective thing you can do to reduce your risk of death or injury while driving.

3. A “No stopping” sign means that, unless directed to do so by a police officer, you may stop only:

Long enough to unload packages.

To avoid conflict with other traffic.

To discharge passengers.

For less than five minutes.

A "No stopping" sign means you can only stop to obey a traffic signal, to obey a police officer, or to prevent a conflict with another vehicle.

4. If you miss your exit on an interstate expressway:

Stop and make a U-turn.

Get off at the next exit and come back to the exit you missed.

Roll down your window and ask the driver next to you for help.

Back up on the highway.

If you miss your turn or exit, do not back up or try to turn around on the highway. Go to the next exit and safely turn around.

5. The most effective safety restraints in a traffic crash are:

Only a lap and shoulder belt.

Only an airbag.

Both a lap/shoulder belt and an airbag.

No safety restraints.

Safety belts can double your chance of surviving a crash and more than double your chance of avoiding serious injury. Airbags, when used properly with safety belts, provide additional protection in a front-end crash. You should wear both shoulder and lap belts.

6. An approaching driver fails to dim their high beam headlights. Where should you look?

At the wheels of the approaching vehicle.

Toward the right side of the road.

Toward the left side of the road.

Straight down the middle of the road.

If an approaching driver fails to dim their high beams, glance toward the right side of the road. This will keep you from being blinded by the other vehicle’s headlights and will allow you to see enough of the road to stay on course until the other vehicle has passed.

7. Seat belts are most effective when they are worn by:

The person driving the car.

Passengers when they are on a long drive.

All occupants of a car being driven on an expressway.

All occupants of a car every time the car is driven.

When you drive, make sure each person in your vehicle wears a seat belt. In the event of a crash, a person without a seat belt becomes a flying object and a danger to each person in the vehicle.

8. You are driving on a narrow road when you meet an oncoming vehicle. You must:

Pull completely off the road and stop.

Allow the oncoming vehicle at least one-half of the main-traveled portion of the road.

Demand the other vehicle pull over to make room.

Turn on your high beam headlights to make sure the other vehicle sees you.

On narrow roads, you must allow vehicles traveling in the opposite direction at least one-half of the main-traveled portion of the road. Both vehicles must have adequate space in order for the drivers to safely pass one another.
