1. Which of the following is true about the speed at which you travel?

The safest speed to drive depends on many conditions.

Driving slowly is always safest.

The speed limit is always a safe speed.

Accelerating is always dangerous.

To determine a safe driving speed, you must take into account many factors, including road conditions, visibility, and the flow of other traffic. When conditions are less than perfect, safety may require you to drive more slowly than the posted speed limit.

There is a steep hill ahead.

No trucks are allowed on an upcoming hill.

A logging road is ahead.

There are trucks on an upcoming hill.

This sign warns that there is a steep hill or downgrade ahead.

3. To turn left from multilane, one-way streets and highways, you should start from:

The middle of the intersection.

The right lane.

The left lane.

Any lane.

To turn left from multilane streets and highways, start from the left lane.

4. When driving in fog, you should use your:

Low beam headlights.

High beam headlights.

Parking lights.

Hazard flashers.

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.

5. Before turning, you should:

Use your signal.

Turn the wheel.

Increase your speed.

Change lanes.

To complete a turn safely, you should activate your turn signal three to four seconds before your turn.

6. How can you lower the risk of hydroplaning?

Do not speed when the roads are wet.

Use tires with proper air pressure.

Replace tires with bad tread.

All of the above.

Hydroplaning happens when a vehicle glides on top of a thin layer of water between its tires and the road. Tires with low air pressure or bad tread can increase the risk of hydroplaning. Speeding also increases the risk.
