Virginia CDL Permit Test - Passenger

When driving, you should continually scan the road for possible hazards. Form plans about what you will do if the hazards develop into emergencies.

If a passenger is drunk and disruptive, you are still responsible for their safety. They should be discharged in a safe location, which may be the next scheduled stop or another well-lit area where other people are present.

When asked to make a turn during the on-road driving test, you must check traffic in all directions and use your turn signal.

When stopping, press down the brake pedal smoothly and gradually.

If you experience tire failure, you may hear the loud "bang" sound of a blowout or feel a heavy thumping or vibration in your vehicle. If steering begins to feel heavy, or if the rear of your vehicle begins to fishtail, you should stop to check your tires.

Aggressive driving is the act of operating a motor vehicle in a selfish, bold, or pushy manner and without regard for the rights or safety of other road users.

When checking your vehicle's tires, you should confirm that air pressure is neither too low nor too high; that there is at least 4/32 of an inch of tread depth in every major groove on the front tires; and that radial and bias-ply tires are not used together.
