Passing Score 24

1. You are driving too slowly if you:

Are driving at speeds slower than 40 mph on any highway.

Do not pass other cars often.

Block other vehicles moving at normal, safe speeds.

You must never drive so slowly that you interfere with other cars or trucks that are moving at a normal speed.

2. Compared to driving during the day, driving at night is:

Less dangerous.

No more or less dangerous.

More dangerous.

Easier on your eyes.

Driving at night is more dangerous than driving during the day for several reasons. It is harder to see in the dark, you may be temporarily blinded by the glare from other vehicles' lights, and there are likely to be more drivers on the road who are tired or under the influence.

3. When a car with bright headlights drives toward you at night, you should:

Stop until the other driver passes.

Look below their headlights.

Glance toward the right edge of your lane.

To avoid being blinded when driving at night, do not look directly at the headlights of oncoming cars. Instead, look toward the right edge of the road until the oncoming driver has passed.

4. When your wheels run off the pavement, you should:

Hit the breaks hard.

Grip the steering wheel firmly, begin to slow down, then move slowly back onto the road surface.

Hit the brakes firmly and jerk the steering wheel hard to pull the vehicle onto the road surface as quickly as possible.

If one or more of your wheels run off of the pavement, grip the steering wheel firmly and slow down by taking your foot off the accelerator. Do not attempt to cut back sharply onto the pavement. Instead, look to see that the road is clear, then move slowly back onto the highway.

5. When driving through a neighborhood, the speed limit is usually 30 mph.

True

False

The maximum speed limit in an urban or residential area is usually 30 miles per hour.

6. To safely pass a bicycle, you should:

Honk at the bicyclist to let them know you're trying to pass.

Drive in the bicycle lane until you get a chance to pass.

Slow down and give them as much space as possible.

Rush ahead to pull in front of the bicyclist.

When passing a bicyclist, slow down and give them as much space as you can. Bicyclists have much less protection than drivers of motor vehicles and they should not be crowded. Passing a bicycle too quickly can shift the bicyclist off-course.

7. When you drive through an area where children are playing, you should expect them:

To know when it is safe to cross the street.

To stop at the curb before crossing the street.

To run out in front of you without looking.

Not to cross the street unless they are with an adult.

You should always reduce your speed and use extra caution when children are in the vicinity. They may fail to understand the danger and may run out in front of you without looking.

8. Just like alcohol and other drugs, drowsiness can:

Help you to be a better driver.

Make you feel better.

Impair your judgment.

Not getting enough sleep is a cause of poor driving behavior. Just like drugs and alcohol, sleepiness slows reaction time, decreases awareness, and impairs judgment.
