1. Who must use a properly fastened safety belt while in a moving motor vehicle?

Only the driver

Only child passengers

Only passengers above the age of 18

All occupants of the vehicle

In the state of Utah, all of a vehicle's occupants must use a safety belt. Drivers can be cited if they aren't wearing a safety belt or if any passenger under the age of 16 is not wearing a safety belt. Any passenger age 16 or older can receive a citation if they are not wearing a safety belt and the vehicle is stopped for any other reason.

2. You are driving on the roadway and hear a siren behind you. You should:

Stop where you are.

Pull over to the right and stop.

Speed up to get out of the way.

Slow down.

When you hear the siren or see the flashing lights of an emergency vehicle coming from behind your vehicle, you must create a clear path for the emergency vehicle and stop. Reduce your speed and safely pull over to the side of the road. If the emergency vehicle is directly behind your vehicle when you are in heavy traffic, keep moving slowly until you can get out of its way.

3. When a traffic signal light turns green, you should:

Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians.

Accelerate as quickly as possible.

Back up slowly.

Not move until another driver waves you on.

A green light tells you that you can go through the intersection. However, you must first yield the right-of-way to traffic and pedestrians who are still in the intersection.

4. As you drive, you're required to stop your vehicle:

At an intersection with a stop sign.

Where there is a red light.

When a traffic officer orders you to stop.

All of the above.

Situations where motorists are required to stop include approaching intersections with stop signs, approaching intersections where a red light is either flashing or illuminated, or any time when a traffic officer orders your vehicle to stop.

5. What should you do when you are going to enter a roadway from a private road?

Blow your horn to warn cars you are entering the roadway.

Stop with part of your car on the roadway to alert other drivers.

Drive out fast to merge smoothly with the traffic.

Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and roadway traffic.

When entering a roadway from a driveway or private road, you must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and traffic on the roadway.

6. Drivers who eat and drink while driving:

Make no driving errors.

Have trouble driving slowly.

Are better drivers because they are not hungry.

Have trouble controlling their vehicles.

Choosing to eat, drink, or smoke while driving is dangerous because these actions require a driver to remove their hands from the wheel and their eyes from the road. Drivers who engage in distracting activities while driving have trouble staying in their lanes and controlling their vehicles.

7. If you are turning onto a street with more than one lane traveling in your direction, you should:

Turn into the lane closest to your previous lane.

Turn into the lane marked with an arrow.

Turn into the middle lane.

Turn into any lane.

When turning onto a street with more than one lane moving in the direction that you are traveling, turn into the lane that is closest to your previous lane. Do not change lanes when turning.

8. An approaching driver fails to dim their high beam headlights. Where should you look?

At the wheels of the approaching vehicle.

Toward the right side of the road.

Toward the left side of the road.

Straight down the middle of the road.

If an approaching driver fails to dim their high beams, glance toward the right side of the road. This will keep you from being blinded by the other vehicle’s headlights and will allow you to see enough of the road to stay on course until the other vehicle has passed.
