17. To make a right turn, you should:
Explanation
Where there are no signs or lane markings to control turning, you should turn from the lane that is closest to the direction you want to travel and turn into the lane closest to the one you just left. This way, you will cross the fewest lanes of traffic.
18. When taking any medicine, you should:
Explanation
Legal medications, both prescription and over-the-counter, can potentially impair your ability to drive. Always consult with your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about how a particular drug or drug combination will affect your ability to drive. You should particularly make a point of talking with your doctor if they give you a prescription for a tranquilizer or sedative.
19. Children on bicycles should be given extra space by motor vehicle operators because:
Explanation
Children are often the least predictable pedestrians and the most difficult pedestrians to see. Take extra care to look out for children, especially near schools, bus stops, playgrounds, parks, and ice cream trucks. Be aware of children riding bikes on the sidewalk, as they may come onto the road unexpectedly.
20. What is a crosswalk?
Explanation
Pedestrian crosswalks are often shown by white, solid lines to emphasize pedestrian crossing points. Crosswalks may have additional lines between the white, solid lines or in place of the parallel lines. However, crosswalks may also be unmarked.
21. You may pass a vehicle when:
Explanation
A single broken line indicates that drivers may cross from either lane to change lanes. Dashed yellow lines alongside solid yellow lines indicate that passing is permitted from the lane next to the broken line, but not from the lane next to the solid line. Only change lanes when it is safe to do so.
22. At a crosswalk:
Explanation
Pedestrians have the right-of-way at street crossings but must obey traffic control signals. Where a traffic signal is not present, vehicles must stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk, whether it is marked or unmarked.
23. You should not make sudden stops in front of large trucks and buses because:
Explanation
Large vehicles require longer distances to stop and accelerate than smaller vehicles do. Making a sudden stop in front of a large vehicle is dangerous because the other driver may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision.
24. Tailgating other drivers (driving too closely to their rear bumper):
Explanation
Tailgating is a common behavior that can lead to aggressive driving, and so it should be avoided. Drivers may face legal consequences for driving unsafely.
25. If pedestrians are illegally crossing in the middle of the street instead of in a crosswalk, you:
Explanation
You must yield to pedestrians at all times. If the pedestrians are jaywalking or crossing the street where they should not be, you must still stop for them.
