20. When parking your vehicle on any hill:
Explanation
When parking on a hill, you should always leave your vehicle in gear or in the "park" position. If there is no curb, you should turn your front wheels so that the vehicle will roll away from the center of the road if the brakes fail. If there is a curb, the front wheels should be turned toward it (if headed downhill) or away from and gently touching it (if headed uphill).

When merging onto a freeway, you should enter at or near the speed of traffic.

23. If the driver of an oncoming vehicle fails to dim their headlights:
Explanation
If an oncoming driver fails to dim their headlights, look toward the right side of the road. This will keep you from being blinded by the other vehicle’s headlights and allow you to see enough of the road to stay on course. Do not try to retaliate by keeping your bright lights on.
24. Where should drivers use their high beam headlights?
Explanation
Use high beam headlights only when driving in the open country where other cars are not nearby. When driving at night, your driving speed should be slower than it would be if you were driving during the day.
