7. The consumption of alcohol while taking drugs can:

Decrease the effects of the drugs and alcohol.

Increase the effects of both the drugs and alcohol.

Help cure your illness.

Improve your driving ability.

The combination of alcohol and drugs, in some cases, can increase the effects of both the drugs and alcohol. It can be unsafe to drive after consuming either alcohol or drugs and is even more dangerous after combining them.

8. Night driving can be more difficult than driving during the day because:

Cars overheat more quickly at night.

Visibility is reduced in the dark.

It is more likely to be raining at night.

You are more likely to encounter a motorcycle at night.

At night, your field of vision is reduced. To make sure you are able to react to hazards on the roadway, always use appropriate headlights. Drive slowly enough that you are able to stop within the distance that you can see ahead.

9. “Highway hypnosis” is a driving condition that can result from:

Staring at the roadway for long periods of time.

Frequent rest stops.

Too much sleep the night before your trip.

Short trips on expressways.

"Highway hypnosis” happens when you stare straight ahead at the roadway for long periods of time and stop actively scanning ahead, behind, and around your vehicle. This can lead you to zone out, making you very likely to crash into traffic slowing or stopping ahead of you.

10. Don’t follow other cars too closely because:

You may not see the road between the cars.

You may not have time to stop if the vehicle in front of you slows or stops suddenly.

You may not see the vehicle's turn signals.

You may not see the other vehicle’s brake lights.

If you follow too closely and the vehicle in front of you slows or stops suddenly, you may not have enough time to avoid a collision.

11. You are driving on a narrow road when you meet an oncoming vehicle. You must:

Pull completely off the road and stop.

Allow the oncoming vehicle at least one-half of the main-traveled portion of the road.

Demand the other vehicle pull over to make room.

Turn on your high beam headlights to make sure the other vehicle sees you.

On narrow roads, you must allow vehicles traveling in the opposite direction at least one-half of the main-traveled portion of the road. Both vehicles must have adequate space in order for the drivers to safely pass one another.

12. Increasing your vehicle’s speed:

Increases your field of vision.

Decreases your field of vision.

Makes it easier to see cross traffic.

Has no effect on your field of vision.

The faster you drive, the smaller your field of vision becomes. As your speed increases and your field of vision decreases, you must be extra alert to potential hazards.
