1. When approaching an uncontrolled intersection, a driver should:

Maintain their speed and proceed.

Stop at the intersection, check in all directions, and proceed.

Yield to all other drivers.

Be prepared to yield.

At an intersection where there is no stop sign or traffic signal, you should yield to a vehicle approaching the intersection from the right. However, always be prepared to yield to avoid a crash. Do this by taking your foot off the accelerator, covering the brake, and looking left, right, and left again.

2. You notice a vehicle defect which may affect the safe operation of your vehicle. You should:

Correct the defect as soon as possible.

Correct the defect when you can afford it.

Drive the vehicle at slower speeds.

Drive normally.

Any defect that may affect the safe operation of a vehicle should be corrected as soon as possible. Defects should be corrected before the vehicle is driven.

Driving with your headlights out of alignment because one side of your car is higher than the other.

Damaging a tire from drifting onto the shoulder.

Hydroplaning, if the shoulder has water on it.

Losing control of the vehicle if you drift onto the shoulder.

This sign indicates that the shoulder is lower than the road in the area ahead. If you drift off of the roadway and one wheel drops onto a low shoulder, do not slam on the brakes or steer sharply to try to get back onto the roadway. This could easily cause you to lose control of your vehicle.

4. Look over your shoulder to check your blind spot when:

Pulling toward or away from a curb.

Turning left or right.

Changing lanes.

All of the above.

Look over your shoulder to check your blind spot every time you want to change your vehicle's position. If you are turning, changing lanes, or pulling toward or away from a curb, you should check your blind spots.

5. The most important thing to remember about speed management and curves is that you must:

Drive at the posted speed limit as you enter the curve, then slow down at the sharpest part of the curve.

Slow down before you enter the curve.

Accelerate gently before you enter the curve.

Drive at the posted speed limit before, throughout, and after the curve.

The most important thing to remember about driving in curves is that your vehicle’s inertia may make it difficult to turn. To maintain control, it is essential that you slow down before entering the curve.

6. When a school bus is stopped off the road without flashing lights, you should:

Stop until the bus moves on, regardless of which side of the road you’re on.

Stop until the bus driver signals for you to go.

Stop only if you’re on the same side of the road as the bus.

Use caution as you pass the bus, since you’re not required to stop.

You must stop for a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing whether it is on your side of the road, the opposite side of the road, or at an intersection you are approaching. If a bus is stopped without its lights flashing or its stop arm extended, drivers may pass with caution.
