1. Slowing down just to look at collisions or anything else out-of-the-ordinary:

Causes traffic congestion.

Prevents rear-end collisions.

Improves traffic flow by preventing collisions.

Avoid "rubbernecking," or slowing down to look at collisions or anything else out-of-the-ordinary. This helps to relieve traffic congestion.

2. If you need to drive in foggy weather:

Turn on your low beam headlights.

Turn on your hazard lights.

It is okay to drive at the maximum speed limit.

Do not drive at a speed above 10 miles per hour.

You are required to use your headlights during the day when visibility is reduced to 500 feet or less. When you first turn on your headlights, be sure they are adjusted to the low beam setting. Using high beams in fog or rain will cause the light to reflect back into your eyes, lowering visibility even more.

3. You must stop at a railroad crossing when:

Directed to do so by a flagger.

It is controlled by a stop sign.

Flashing red signals and gates are present and operating.

All of the above.

You must stop at a railroad crossing when directed to do so by a flagger or stop sign. Stop when flashing red signals and gates are present and operating.

4. A telltale sign of a drunk driver is:

They are weaving between lanes.

They are driving more slowly than the normal traffic flow.

They are making quick and sudden stops.

All of the above.

Telltale signs of drunk driving include speeding, weaving, driving more slowly than the normal traffic flow, making jerking motions, and making quick and sudden stops.

5. When driving past a vehicle that has just stopped in a parked position on the side of the road, you should:

Assume that the driver will open the car door as you approach.

Speed up.

Slam on your brakes.

Assume that the driver will wait for you to pass before opening the door.

When passing a vehicle that has just parked parallel to the road, you should assume the driver will open the door as you approach. Use extra caution when driving near parked vehicles.

6. When should drivers yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in a crosswalk?

Only if the pedestrians first wave to the driver.

Only if the pedestrians are not texting while walking.

At all times.

Bring your vehicle to a complete stop at a crosswalk to yield the right-of-way to any vehicle or pedestrian already in the intersection. You may carefully proceed if your lane is completely clear.

7. If you miss your exit on the freeway, you should not:

Continue on the freeway and find an alternate route to your destination.

Proceed to the next exit, leave the freeway, and return to your proper exit.

Back up on the road or shoulder.

If you miss your turn or exit, do not back up in the travel lane or on the shoulder. Continue to drive to the next exit or crossroad. Drivers do not expect a vehicle to be backing toward them on the roadway and doing so will likely cause a collision.

8. When driving under low-visibility conditions due to fog, you should:

Turn on your high beam headlights.

Slow down and use your low beam headlights.

Increase your speed so you do not cause an accident.

When driving in fog, you should slow down and use your low beam lights. If the fog is so dense that you cannot see, pull off the road and wait for the fog to clear.
