This sign indicates that a stop sign is ahead.

2. As your speed increases, it is important to:

Turn on your headlights.

Look well ahead of your vehicle.

Change lanes frequently.

Your vehicle's stopping distance increases as your speed increases. When driving at high speeds, it is important to look well ahead of your vehicle to allow yourself space to safely react to hazardous situations.

3. When driving on slick roads, you should:

Take turns more slowly than usual.

Change lanes quickly.

Accelerate quickly.

Brake hard.

While it is always dangerous to drive too fast on slippery roads, this is especially true when driving in turns and curves. Be sure to approach them more slowly in slippery conditions than you would under normal circumstances.

4. Alcohol:

Slows reflexes and reaction time.

Puts you to sleep.

Wakes you up.

Improves your judgment.

Alcohol is a depressant drug that slows the activity of the brain and reduces the skills that you need for safe driving. Drinking alcohol results in slowed reaction time and impaired judgment.

Pedestrian crossing.

School crossing.

Jogging trail.

Warning signs provide notice to road users of a situation that might not be readily apparent and are usually yellow with black markings. This sign tells drivers to be alert to crossing pedestrians.

7. The best thing to do if you become tired while driving is to:

Stop to rest or change drivers.

Drive through the intersection if there is no crossing traffic.
