1. When merging onto the freeway, you should be driving:
Explanation
You should enter a freeway at or near the speed of traffic, unless the speed of traffic exceeds the legal speed limit.
2. When driving on gravel or dirt roads:
Explanation
Your tires do not have as much traction on loose gravel and dirt roads as they do on concrete and asphalt roads. When driving on gravel or dirt, you must slow down. It will take you much longer to stop and it is much easier to skid when turning.
3. Which of these statements is true about large trucks?
Explanation
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.
4. This road sign means:
Explanation
An octagonal sign always means stop. When approaching a stop sign, you must come to a complete stop at the marked stop line and proceed only when it is safe to do so. If there is no stop line, stop before the crosswalk. If there is no crosswalk, stop before the intersection at a point from which you can see oncoming traffic.
5. You hit a parked vehicle and can't find the owner. What must you do?
Explanation
If you hit a parked vehicle or other property, you must leave a note with your name, phone number, and address securely attached to the vehicle or property that you hit.
6. Where is it safe to pass another vehicle?
Explanation
Never pass within intersections or at other intersecting points, such as parking lot entrances and alleyways. Any time your view is blocked by a curve or a hill, you should stay in your lane and assume that there is an oncoming vehicle just out of sight. Wherever signs and/or pavement markings permit passing other vehicles, you will have to determine whether or not you have enough space to pass in a safe manner.
7. This sign means:
Explanation
A triangular red and white sign indicates that you must yield the right-of-way.
8. When changing lanes:
Explanation
Before changing lanes, you should check your side mirrors and look over your shoulder to make sure it is safe to proceed.
