17. Alcohol is the single greatest common factor in fatal motor vehicle crashes.

True

False

Alcohol is the number one killer on American roadways. Alcohol affects a person’s vision and slows their reaction time, so it takes longer to act in an emergency. Alcohol affects a person’s driving even if they are below the level of illegal intoxication.

18. To be safe when crossing a railroad, you should:

Look both ways, but only when the red light is flashing.

Listen, look both ways, and then proceed if it is safe to do so.

Cross especially quickly when a train is approaching.

Quickly pass under any lowering gates.

Railroad crossings are always dangerous. Drivers should look and listen for an approaching train coming from either direction before proceeding across the tracks. Watch for signals indicating an approaching train and never proceed until you are certain it is safe to do so.

19. When turning left, drivers must yield the right-of-way to:

Other drivers who are already in the intersection.

Oncoming traffic.

Pedestrians who are already in the intersection.

All of the above.

When turning left, drivers must yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic. Drivers must also always yield the right-of-way to pedestrians, bicyclists, and other drivers who are already in the intersection.

20. You are coming to an intersection and have a green light. Pedestrians are crossing against the red. You should:

Honk your horn.

Speed up and pass in front of the pedestrians.

Stop to let the pedestrians cross safely.

Drive close to the pedestrians and frighten them so they’ll think twice before crossing against a red light.

Yield to pedestrians and cars that may be caught in an intersection when you have a green light. Be careful around pedestrians under every circumstance.

Stop sign ahead.

Railroad crossing ahead.

Construction ahead.

A round sign always indicates that you are approaching a railroad crossing.

22. If you need to stop quickly and your vehicle is not equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), you should:

Hold down the brake pedal.

Firmly pump your brakes.

Lightly tap the brakes.

Release the brake pedal.

Pumping the brakes is generally the best way to stop a car in an emergency. The car will stop quickly and you will also be able to continue steering.

23. Having a driver license is a:

Requirement.

Privilege.

Right.

It is important to remember that driving is a privilege and that all drivers play a role in ensuring that everyone remains safe on the roadways. If you prove to be abusive of that privilege, the privilege may be revoked.

24. If a traffic light shows both a red light and a green arrow, a driver may not turn in the direction of the arrow until the red light has changed.

True

False

After yielding the right-of-way to traffic within an intersection or crosswalk, a driver may go in the direction a green arrow is pointing, regardless of other lights present.
