1. To check your blind spot when changing lanes to the left, you should glance:

Over your right shoulder.

At your side mirror.

Over your left shoulder.

At your rearview mirror.

To check your blind spot, glance over your shoulder in the direction that you want to move.

Sharp turn to the right.

Double curve.

Winding road.

Pavement ends.

This sign indicates that the road ahead winds with a series of turns or curves.

3. While driving, you come upon a sign displaying the words “Reduced speed, 35 mph." This means:

That the new 35 mph speed limit begins at this sign.

That the new 35 mph speed limit begins at the next speed limit sign.

That you have plenty of time to slow down before the reduced speed zone.

That you should reduce your speed to 35 mph, but only under poor weather conditions.

"Reduced speed" signs inform drivers that they must reduce their speeds. If a new speed limit is posted on one of these signs, the new speed limit begins at the sign.

4. When approaching a steady green traffic light, drivers should:

Continue driving, unless there are vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection.

Stop if a police officer is nearby.

Treat the intersection like a four-way stop.

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

When approaching an intersection with a steady green traffic light, yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and vehicles still in the intersection. You may continue driving, but should approach the intersection at a speed that will allow you to slow down and stop if the light changes before you get there.

5. Signs that are colored orange are:

Work zone signs.

Regulatory signs.

School zone signs.

Guide signs.

Highway work zones are established according to the type of work underway along the roadway. Signs in work areas are typically diamond-shaped, orange, have black letters or symbols, and serve as a warning that people are working on or near the highway.

6. Emergency vehicles:

Have the right-of-way when using sirens, horns, and/or flashing lights.

May use a loudspeaker to give instructions.

May follow each other.

All of the above.

You must yield the right-of-way to police cars, fire engines, ambulances, or any other emergency vehicles using a siren or air horn and a red or blue flashing light. Follow any instructions given over the emergency vehicles' loudspeakers. Emergency vehicles often follow each other so you should proceed only when you are certain the way is clear.

7. What may help drivers conserve gasoline?

Sitting in their driveways with their cars running.

Accelerating quickly.

Slowing down gradually.

Braking abruptly.

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.
