    When must a driver slow down for a school zone? 

    • On school days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. when children are present and signs are posted.

    • On weekends.

    • Only during recess.

    Correct Answer
    A. On school days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. when children are present and signs are posted.
    Explanation
    A driver must slow down for a school zone on school days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. when children are present and signs are posted. This is because during these times, there is a higher likelihood of children being present in the area due to school hours. The signs posted serve as a reminder for drivers to reduce their speed and be cautious in order to ensure the safety of the children. Slowing down in a school zone helps to minimize the risk of accidents and allows for better reaction time if a child unexpectedly enters the roadway.

    When on a two-lane roadway, drivers must stop their vehicles when  approaching a stopped school bus with its red warning lights flash-  ing and its stop signal arm extended. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When on a two-lane roadway, drivers must stop their vehicles when approaching a stopped school bus with its red warning lights flashing and its stop signal arm extended. This is because the flashing lights and extended stop signal arm indicate that children are either boarding or exiting the school bus, and it is important to ensure their safety. Stopping allows the children to cross the road safely and prevents any accidents or injuries. Ignoring the flashing lights and stop signal arm is not only illegal but also puts the lives of children at risk.

    A driver must give the right or left turn signal when changing lanes. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When changing lanes, it is important for a driver to give the right or left turn signal to indicate their intention to other drivers on the road. This signal alerts other drivers that the driver intends to change lanes, allowing them to adjust their speed or position accordingly. Giving the turn signal helps in maintaining safety and preventing accidents by ensuring that other drivers are aware of the driver's intended movement. Therefore, the statement is true.

    What should drivers do when approaching a construction area? 

    • Increase their speed to get out of the way quickly.

    • Slow down and yield the right-of-way.

    • Honk their horn several times to alert individuals working in the area of their presence.

    Correct Answer
    A. Slow down and yield the right-of-way.
    Explanation
    When approaching a construction area, drivers should slow down and yield the right-of-way. This is because construction areas often have reduced speed limits and may have workers or equipment present, making it necessary for drivers to proceed with caution. Increasing speed to get out of the way quickly can be dangerous and may lead to accidents. Honking the horn several times is also not recommended as it may startle or distract the workers in the area. Therefore, the safest and most appropriate action is to slow down and yield the right-of-way.

    Only vehicles having special plates or parking placards and carrying  persons with disabilities may park in spaces reserved for them by an  official PARKING FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES sign. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that only vehicles with special plates or parking placards, and carrying persons with disabilities, are allowed to park in spaces reserved for them by an official PARKING FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES sign. This means that if a vehicle does not meet these criteria, it is not permitted to park in these designated spaces. Therefore, the statement "Only vehicles having special plates or parking placards and carrying persons with disabilities may park in spaces reserved for them by an official PARKING FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES sign" is true.

    The road surface of a bridge may be dangerous in winter because it  may remain icy after the rest of the roadway is clear. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    During winter, the road surface of a bridge may remain icy even after the rest of the roadway is clear due to various factors. Bridges are exposed to cold air from above and below, causing them to freeze faster and stay frozen longer than other parts of the road. Additionally, the lack of sunlight and wind on the bridge surface inhibits the melting of ice. These conditions make the road surface of a bridge more prone to remaining icy, making it dangerous for drivers.

    S1. Drivers who have vision restrictions noted on their driver’s license  must always wear glasses or contacts when driving. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Drivers who have vision restrictions noted on their driver's license are required to always wear glasses or contacts when driving. This is because their vision is impaired and wearing corrective lenses helps to ensure that they have clear vision while operating a vehicle. By wearing glasses or contacts, these drivers can enhance their vision and minimize the risk of accidents or other road hazards that may occur due to poor eyesight. Therefore, the statement is true.

    When passing another vehicle, a driver should wait until the entire  car the driver just passed is visible in the rearview mirror before  turning back into the right-hand lane. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When passing another vehicle, it is important for a driver to wait until they can see the entire car they just passed in their rearview mirror before returning to the right-hand lane. This ensures that there is enough space and time for the driver to safely merge back into the lane without cutting off the other vehicle. It also helps to maintain a safe distance between the two vehicles, reducing the risk of a collision. Therefore, the statement is true.

    What is the only effective way to remove alcohol from the body? 

    • Strong coffee

    • Time

    • Cold shower

    Correct Answer
    A. Time
    Explanation
    Alcohol is metabolized by the liver at a constant rate, and no method can speed up this process. Time is the only effective way to remove alcohol from the body as it allows the liver to break it down and eliminate it through urine and breath. Strong coffee may make a person feel more alert, but it does not accelerate the elimination of alcohol. Similarly, a cold shower may temporarily make a person feel more awake, but it does not affect the body's ability to metabolize alcohol.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In this statement, it is stated that regardless of fault, a crash report must be filed by the driver of a vehicle if the crash involves death, bodily injury, or property damage of more than $1,500 (or more than $500 if a vehicle is uninsured). This means that even if the driver is not at fault for the crash, they are still required to file a crash report if any of the mentioned conditions are met. Therefore, the statement is true.

  • 13. 

    Before a driver can regain driving privileges after losing them  because of an unsatisfied judgment suspension resulting from failure  to pay for the damages from a crash, the driver must file proof of  financial responsibility with the Secretary of State’s office. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    To regain driving privileges after losing them due to an unsatisfied judgment suspension resulting from failure to pay for damages from a crash, the driver must provide proof of financial responsibility to the Secretary of State's office. This means that the driver must show that they have the means to cover any potential damages or liabilities in the future. This requirement ensures that drivers are financially responsible and able to compensate for any harm caused in accidents.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    Driving privileges may be revoked for giving false information to the  Secretary of State. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Driving privileges can be revoked for providing false information to the Secretary of State. This means that if someone intentionally gives incorrect or misleading information to the Secretary of State regarding their driving record, identity, or any other relevant information, their driving privileges can be taken away. This is because providing false information undermines the integrity of the licensing process and can pose a risk to public safety on the roads. Therefore, it is important to always provide accurate and truthful information when dealing with the Secretary of State regarding driving privileges.

    A merge sign means drivers should be prepared to change lanes or  allow other traffic to come into their lane. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A merge sign indicates that drivers should be ready to either change lanes or allow other vehicles to enter their lane. This is because merging typically involves two lanes of traffic merging into one, requiring drivers to adjust their position accordingly. By being prepared to change lanes or accommodate other vehicles, drivers can ensure a smooth and safe merging process. Therefore, the statement "A merge sign means drivers should be prepared to change lanes or allow other traffic to come into their lane" is true.

    When approaching a stop sign that is not marked by a crosswalk,  drivers should stop their vehicles before entering the intersection. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When approaching a stop sign that is not marked by a crosswalk, it is important for drivers to stop their vehicles before entering the intersection. This is because stop signs are intended to ensure the safety of all road users, and stopping before entering the intersection allows drivers to assess the traffic conditions and proceed safely. Additionally, stopping before entering the intersection also allows pedestrians or cyclists to cross the road safely if they are present, even if there is no marked crosswalk. Therefore, the statement "drivers should stop their vehicles before entering the intersection" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    Most rear-end collisions are caused by the vehicle in back following too  closely. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Most rear-end collisions are caused by the vehicle in back following too closely. This is because when a vehicle follows too closely, it leaves very little room for reaction time in case the vehicle in front suddenly stops or slows down. As a result, the driver in the back may not be able to brake in time, leading to a rear-end collision. Therefore, it is important for drivers to maintain a safe following distance to prevent such accidents.

  • 18. 

    When approaching a railroad crossing that has no warning signals  (such as electric flashing lights or gates), a driver should look, listen  and slow down. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When approaching a railroad crossing without warning signals, it is important for a driver to exercise caution. By looking and listening for any approaching trains, the driver can ensure their safety and the safety of others. Slowing down allows the driver to have more time to react if necessary. Therefore, the statement "a driver should look, listen, and slow down" is true.

    Unless authorized to do so, drivers may not break into the line of a  funeral procession. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Drivers may not break into the line of a funeral procession unless authorized to do so. This means that if a driver is not given permission or does not have a valid reason, they are not allowed to cut into or disrupt the flow of a funeral procession.

    What should a driver do when approaching a traffic control signal  that is not in operation? 

    • Come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way before entering the intersection.

    • If the intersection is clear, the driver does not need to stop.

    • Drive quickly through the intersection to get out of the way of other vehicles.

    Correct Answer
    A. Come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way before entering the intersection.
    Explanation
    When approaching a traffic control signal that is not in operation, the driver should come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way before entering the intersection. This is because when a traffic signal is not functioning, it is treated as a four-way stop intersection. Coming to a full stop allows the driver to assess the situation and ensure that it is safe to proceed. Yielding the right-of-way ensures that the driver gives priority to any vehicles that arrived at the intersection before them.

    Drivers who become stranded in blizzard conditions should remain in  their vehicles. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    During a blizzard, it is safer for drivers to stay inside their vehicles rather than attempting to walk or find shelter elsewhere. Vehicles provide some protection from the harsh weather conditions and can serve as a temporary shelter. Leaving the vehicle can increase the risk of getting lost or succumbing to the cold temperatures. It is important to stay with the vehicle and wait for help to arrive.

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Drivers must yield to pedestrians in an unmarked crosswalk. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In an unmarked crosswalk, there are no specific markings or signs indicating that it is a crosswalk. Despite the absence of markings, drivers are still required to yield to pedestrians who are crossing the road. This is because pedestrians have the right of way in such situations to ensure their safety. Therefore, the statement "Drivers must yield to pedestrians in an unmarked crosswalk" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    It is illegal for persons under age 21 to drive with any trace of alco-  hol or drugs in their systems. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because it is indeed illegal for individuals under the age of 21 to operate a vehicle with any amount of alcohol or drugs in their system. This is because underage individuals are not legally allowed to consume alcohol or use drugs, and driving under the influence poses a significant risk to their safety as well as the safety of others on the road. Therefore, it is important for individuals under 21 to refrain from driving if they have consumed any alcohol or drugs.

    A driver may pass another vehicle by driving on the shoulder of the road. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Driving on the shoulder of the road is illegal and unsafe. It is against traffic laws to pass another vehicle by using the shoulder. The shoulder is intended for emergencies and stopping only. Passing should be done legally and safely by using designated passing lanes or waiting for a clear and legal opportunity to pass.

    A driver does not need to allow as much distance when following a  motorcycle as when following a car. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    A driver needs to allow as much distance when following a motorcycle as when following a car. This is because motorcycles have a shorter stopping distance compared to cars and are more vulnerable to crashes. Additionally, motorcycles can maneuver more quickly and may require sudden braking or swerving, so maintaining a safe distance is crucial to avoid accidents.

    If moving with a stream of vehicles across a railroad track, it is safe  to stop on the track for a short period of time. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    It is not safe to stop on a railroad track, even for a short period of time, when moving with a stream of vehicles. Stopping on a railroad track can be extremely dangerous as it increases the risk of a collision with an oncoming train. Trains require a significant distance to come to a complete stop, and even if a train is not visible at the moment, it can approach rapidly. Therefore, it is important to always keep the railroad track clear and never stop on it.

    Speed should be reduced below the posted speed limit for which of  the following reasons? 

    • Driver is driving in unfavorable weather conditions.

    • Driver is approaching and crossing an intersection.

    • Both of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. Both of the above.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Both of the above." This means that the speed should be reduced below the posted speed limit for both driving in unfavorable weather conditions and approaching and crossing an intersection. In unfavorable weather conditions, such as rain, snow, or fog, reducing speed can help maintain control of the vehicle and prevent accidents. When approaching and crossing an intersection, reducing speed allows the driver to have better visibility and reaction time, reducing the risk of collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians.

    A railroad crossbuck sign should be treated the same as a yield sign. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A railroad crossbuck sign should be treated the same as a yield sign because both indicate that drivers must yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic. When approaching a railroad crossbuck sign, drivers must slow down, look for trains, and yield before proceeding. Similarly, when approaching a yield sign, drivers must slow down, check for oncoming traffic, and yield if necessary before entering the intersection. Both signs require drivers to prioritize the safety of themselves and others on the road.

    Rate this question:

  • 43. 

    How should a driver proceed if within an intersection waiting to  make a left turn and the traffic signal light turns red? 

    • Wait in the intersection until the light turns green.

    • Yield to oncoming traffic and finish the turn.

    • Make sure it is clear, then back up from the intersection.

    Correct Answer
    A. Yield to oncoming traffic and finish the turn.
    Explanation
    When a driver is within an intersection waiting to make a left turn and the traffic signal light turns red, they should yield to oncoming traffic and finish the turn. This means that even though the light has turned red, the driver should wait for a safe gap in oncoming traffic and complete the left turn before the oncoming traffic starts moving. This ensures that the driver does not block the intersection and allows for a smooth flow of traffic.

    If a vehicle starts to skid on water (hydroplane), the driver should  quickly apply the brakes. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When a vehicle starts to skid on water, applying the brakes can actually worsen the situation.

Instead, the driver should ease off the accelerator and steer gently in the direction they want to go until the tires regain traction.
