500 feet
300 feet
100 feet
50 feet

Explanation ▾

When making a turn or lane change, be sure to alert other drivers to your intentions by using your turn signals. On most roadways, signal at least 100 feet before the turn. On highways, you should signal at least 500 feet before the turn.

2.

If you are driving so slowly that traffic is backing up behind you, you should:

Decrease your speed.
Pull off the right side of the road and let traffic pass.
Not let the other cars pass your vehicle.
Use your four-way flashers.

Explanation ▾

Driving more slowly than the flow of traffic can be hazardous. If you are on a two-lane, two-way road and driving so slowly that traffic is backing up behind you, you are required to pull off the road and let the other vehicles pass. Only drive significantly under the speed limit when conditions require it.

3.

When approaching a school bus that is stopped on the opposite side of a divided highway, drivers:

May continue driving.
Must stop until the school bus begins moving.
Must stop until the stop arm is lifted.
Must stop and wait for the flashing lights to stop.

Explanation ▾

When passing a school bus that is stopped on the opposite side of a divided highway, drivers may continue driving. If the highway is not separated by a median or divider, drivers on both sides of the street must stop.

4.

When driving in fog, you should use your:

Low beam headlights.
High beam headlights.
Parking lights.
Hazard flashers.

Explanation ▾

If you must drive in foggy conditions, you should use your low beam headlights, as well as your fog lights, if your vehicle has them. High beams direct their light upwards, where it can bounce off the fog and into your eyes, reducing visibility even more.

Sitting in their driveways with their cars running.
Accelerating quickly.
Slowing down gradually.
Braking abruptly.

Explanation ▾

Every time you have to stop quickly, it takes time and fuel to accelerate and get your vehicle back up to the speed of traffic. Drivers who look far ahead of their vehicles can slow down gradually or change lanes to avoid unnecessary braking, leading to better gas mileage.

7.

Curve ahead.
Roadwork ahead.
