1. Highway pavement will be particularly treacherous and most slippery:

If it has been raining several hours.

If it has just begun to rain.

If it has been raining for one to two hours.

Pavement is particularly treacherous when it first begins to rain. Accumulations of dirt and oil mix with the rainwater, creating a greasy film on the roadway.

2. A slow-moving vehicle emblem is:

A rectangular red sign.

A circular green sign.

A diamond-shaped yellow sign.

A triangular orange sign.

The slow-moving vehicle symbol is a reflective orange triangle. Expect vehicles using this emblem to be driving at speeds of 25 mph or slower.

Do not enter.

Roundabout ahead.

No U-turns.

Regulatory signs provide notice to road users of traffic laws that must be obeyed. This sign tells drivers that it is prohibited to make a U-turn.

4. You come to an intersection with a flashing red light. You must:

Slow down and drive carefully through the intersection.

Turn either right or left, since the road is blocked ahead.

Stop at the intersection and wait for a flashing green light.

Stop at the intersection, then proceed as traffic allows.

A flashing red light means that you must come to a full stop, and then proceed when the way is clear.

5. How can you help prevent rear-end collisions?

Avoid sudden stops.

Before stopping, check your mirrors and blind spots for traffic.

Release the gas pedal and let your vehicle slow before applying the brakes.

All of the above.

Stopping suddenly can make it difficult for drivers behind you to avoid a rear-end collision. When stopping, release the accelerator to allow your vehicle to slow. Press the brake pedal by applying steady pressure, activating your brake lights and causing the vehicle to stop smoothly.

6. Which of these statements is true about large trucks?

They take longer to stop than passenger vehicles.

They all have air brakes that allow them to stop quickly.

They are more maneuverable than passenger vehicles.

Large trucks take longer to stop than other vehicles traveling at the same speed. The average passenger vehicle traveling at 55 mph can stop within 400 feet. However, a large truck traveling at the same speed can take almost 800 feet to stop.

7. At a railroad crossing, you must:

Watch for vehicles that must stop at all railroad crossings (school buses, trucks carrying hazardous materials, etc.).

Watch for multiple trains.

Both of the above.

You must approach all railroad crossings with extreme caution and cross only when you know that no train is coming from either direction. Be aware of vehicles that must stop at all railroad crossings, such as school buses and trucks carrying hazardous materials.
