1. When traveling on a multilane roadway with traffic moving in opposite directions, how should drivers use the shared center lane?

To pass other vehicles.

To slow down or stop before turning left.

As a through-traffic lane when traffic is moving too slowly.

As a parking lane.

The only time a vehicle should enter the center lane is at a point where the vehicle will have time to slow down or stop in order to make a safe left turn maneuver. The center lane should never be used as a passing lane or as a through-traffic lane.

No left turn.

No U-turns.

No exit.

No right turn.

This sign indicates that right turns are prohibited.

3. When parking uphill next to a curb, set the parking brake and:

Keep the rear tires against the curb.

Keep the front tires straight ahead.

Turn your steering wheel away from the curb.

Turn your steering wheel toward the curb.

When parking facing uphill on a street that has a curb, set your parking brake and turn your steering wheel away from the curb. This way, if your vehicle starts to roll, it will roll into the curb.

4. What is the only way to reduce your blood alcohol concentration (BAC)?

Drink coffee.

Exercise.

Allow your body time to get rid of the alcohol.

Take a cold shower.

The only method that effectively reduces your BAC is to not drink alcohol for a period of time. Coffee, exercise, and cold showers cannot reduce your BAC or change the effects of alcohol. They can help you remain awake, but they cannot change your BAC or make you sober.

5. When stopped for a traffic violation or at an equipment check, the driver must produce:

Proof of insurance.

Their license.

Proof of registration.

All of the above.

When stopped for a traffic violation or at an equipment check, the driver is responsible for producing their license, proof of registration, and proof of insurance. Drivers are required to have all three of these documents in a vehicle when it is being driven.

6. When you are being tailgated:

Move over to the right, if there is an open lane to your right.

If there is not an open lane to your right, wait until the way is clear ahead and reduce your speed slowly to encourage the tailgater to drive around you.

Never slow down abruptly.

All of the above.

If you are being tailgated by another driver and there is a right lane, move over to the right. If there is no right lane, wait until the road ahead is clear and then reduce your speed slowly. This will encourage the tailgater to drive around you. Never slow down abruptly as this will only increase the risk of your vehicle being hit from behind.

Always stop before entering the intersection.

Yield just to the traffic on the right.

Yield just to the traffic on the left.

Slow down and yield the right-of-way to other traffic.

A yield sign means that you must slow down and yield the right-of-way to traffic in the intersection or roadway you are entering.

You may use this lane.

No traffic is allowed in this lane.

You have the right-of-way.

You must merge into this lane.

A steady downward green arrow over a traffic lane means you may use the lane indicated.

9. The “No zone” is:

A term used to describe blind spots around a truck or bus.

A special speed zone.

A roadway with restrictions on vehicle stereo volume.

The television show that replaced The Twilight Zone.

A truck or bus has blind spots on each side, in the rear, and in the front. An automobile cannot be seen in these blind spots. These blind spots are referred to as the “No zone.”
