1. Lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions are divided by ____ lines.

White

Red

Black

Yellow

Yellow lines are used to divide traffic moving in opposite directions.

2. You should increase the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead when you:

Are following a small passenger vehicle.

Are being tailgated by another driver.

Are driving more slowly than the posted speed limit.

When being tailgated, create extra space in front of your vehicle and do not brake suddenly. Slow down gradually or merge into another lane to prevent a collision with the tailgater.

3. "No zones" are areas around trucks where cars:

Disappear into blind spots or are so close that they restrict the truck driver's ability to stop and maneuver safely.

Have sufficient space to travel behind the truck.

Have several car lengths between their vehicle and the truck.

"No zones" are areas around trucks or buses in which cars disappear into the larger vehicle's blind spots. "No zones" can also be defined as areas in which cars are so close to the larger vehicle that they restrict the truck or bus driver’s ability to stop and maneuver safely. A car being in a "No zone" greatly increases the potential for a crash.

4. When passing another car, you have enough space to return to the driving lane:

If the other driver signals for you to re-enter the lane.

If you look over your shoulder and see the passed car behind you.

If you can see both of the passed vehicle's headlights in your rearview mirror.

Before you return to the driving lane when completing a pass, be sure there is a safe gap between your vehicle and the passed vehicle. When you can see both headlights of the vehicle in your rearview mirror, it is safe to return to the driving lane.

5. If you have a probationary license or instructional permit, you can use your cell phone while driving:

If you are just answering a call.

As long as you don't text.

When you are reporting an emergency.

At any time.

If you have a probationary license or instructional permit, using a cell phone while driving in Wisconsin is against the law. The only exception to this is if you must use your cell phone to report an emergency.

6. In a vehicle equipped with airbags, the safest place for children age 12 and under to ride is in:

The front seat.

The back seat.

The bed of a pick-up truck.

While airbags provide supplemental protection for adults in the event of a crash, they pose a severe safety risk for children. Anyone age 12 or under should sit in the back seat of a vehicle with airbags.

7. What does a traffic signal with a yellow left arrow indicate?

Drivers should prepare to yield to oncoming traffic.

The protected left turn is about to end.

Both of the above.

When a protected turn arrow changes from green to yellow, drivers must prepare to yield to oncoming traffic. A yellow arrow indicates that the protected left turn is ending.
