1. When you see other drivers around you acting or reacting in anger:

Don’t make eye contact.

Don't react with hand gestures.

Distance yourself from the situation.

All of these.

When other drivers are behaving angrily, you should take action to physically and mentally distance yourself from the situation. Avoid making eye contact with them, or making body movements or gestures that could provoke them. Slow down, move over, or do whatever you safely can to put yourself out of danger.

2. If you drink alcohol socially, what helps ensure safe driving?

Drink coffee before driving.

Ride home with a friend who has not been drinking.

Take a cold shower before driving.

Stop drinking one half hour before driving.

One strategy to avoid driving while impaired or intoxicated is to arrange for a ride home with a friend who does not drink. Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower cannot reduce your blood alcohol content or reduce the effects of alcohol. On average, it takes about an hour for the body to eliminate the alcohol from a single drink.

3. Which of the following commonly causes traffic accidents?

Inattentive driving

Excessive speed under the driving conditions

Following other vehicles too closely

All of the above

Driving too fast for conditions is a major cause of motor vehicle crashes. Being inattentive to surroundings can cause a driver to collide with other vehicles. Most rear-end collisions are caused by drivers following other vehicles too closely.

4. When driving in traffic, it is safest to:

Fluctuate your speed to keep alert.

Drive faster than the flow of traffic.

Drive slower than the flow of traffic.

Drive with the flow of traffic.

Crashes often happen when some drivers go faster or slower than other vehicles on the road. Always try to drive with the flow of traffic, within the posted speed limit.

5. The buyer of a vehicle must transfer ownership and registration:

By the end of the year.

Before the license plate expires.

Within 15 days from the date of purchase.

Within 60 days from the date of purchase.

The purchaser of a vehicle must transfer ownership within 15 days to avoid penalty fees. If the vehicle is sold by a dealer, the transfer is the dealer’s responsibility.

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.
