9. When faced with an oncoming car to the left and a bicyclist to the right, you should:

Pull onto the shoulder.

Split the difference.

Let the car pass and then pass the bike.

Pass the bike quickly.

When there is more than one potential hazard on the road, you should ensure that you only have to deal with one of them at a time. For example, when there is a bicyclist on the right that you want to pass and an oncoming car to the left, you should not try to squeeze between both at the same time. Instead, let the oncoming car pass, and then pass the bicyclist.

10. You should always travel:

At the speed of vehicles surrounding you.

At the speed limit.

At a speed appropriate for road and weather conditions.

The speed at which you should drive your vehicle depends on road conditions, the weather, and the legal speed limit. You may never drive above the legal speed limit. Decrease your speed when anything makes conditions less than ideal.

11. You are driving up a hill and are approaching a heavy truck from the rear. You should know that:

The truck may be traveling at a speed slower than the posted speed limit.

You may not be able to safely pass the truck.

You may not be able to legally pass the truck.

All of the above.

Drivers must be aware that large vehicles often travel at a speed slower than the posted speed limit, especially when driving on an incline, and should use caution when approaching a large vehicle from the rear. When on a hill with limited visibility, it is unlawful to pass another vehicle.

Bicycle crossing.

Stop only if other cars are approaching.

Bicycle store.

Soft shoulders.

This sign (with the arrow below) indicates the location of a bicycle crossing/path. Drive with caution around this sign because bicycles likely regularly cross or ride beside traffic in the area.

13. When changing lanes:

Check your side mirror and look over your shoulder to make sure the lane is clear.

Check the inside rearview mirror.

Slow down.

Before changing lanes, you should check your side mirrors and look over your shoulder to make sure it is safe to proceed.

14. You should honk your horn when you:

Are traveling through an intersection.

Are passing a bicyclist.

See a child who is about to run into the street.

Are parallel parking.

Your horn should be used as a warning in situations where you think another driver or a pedestrian does not see you. For example, if a child begins to run into the street in front of your vehicle, you should sound your horn.

15. You may avoid the risks of alcohol-related crashes by:

Deciding before you start drinking that you are not going to drive.

Simply saying, "No thanks, I'm driving," if someone offers you a drink.

Calling a taxi.

Doing any of the above.

The only way to avoid the risks of drinking and driving is to decide before you start drinking that you are not going to drive. Because alcohol affects your judgement, it will be harder for you to make safe decisions after you have started drinking.

16. You are involved in a minor collision at an intersection. There are no injuries and there is very little vehicle damage. You should:

Leave your vehicle in the traffic lane until law enforcement arrives.

Move your vehicle out of the traffic lane, if possible.

Not move your vehicle for any reason.

After a collision, if no one has been injured or killed and you can safely do so, you should move your vehicle out of the traffic lane.
