A. At least 100 ftExplanation
When making a turn, it is important to signal in advance to inform other drivers of your intentions.

The stopping distance on a dry road at 50 m.p.h is 243 ft. This means that it would take a vehicle traveling at 50 m.p.h on a dry road approximately 243 ft to come to a complete stop. Stopping distance is influenced by factors such as speed, road conditions, and the vehicle's braking capabilities. In this case, the given answer suggests that on a dry road, a vehicle traveling at 50 m.p.h would require a stopping distance of 243 ft.Rate this question:

This means that when parking your vehicle, you should make sure to leave no more than a 6-inch gap between your vehicle and the curb. This is important to ensure that your vehicle is not obstructing the flow of traffic and allows for the safe passage of other vehicles on the road. Parking too far from the curb can create hazards and may result in a violation or fine.Rate this question:

Driving without insurance is illegal in many jurisdictions. The penalties for this offense typically include the suspension of the driver's license and vehicle registration, as well as fines. These penalties aim to deter individuals from driving without insurance, as it poses a risk to both the uninsured driver and other road users. By suspending the license and registration, authorities ensure that the driver cannot continue to operate a vehicle until they obtain proper insurance coverage. Additionally, fines serve as a financial consequence for breaking the law and encourage compliance with insurance requirements. Therefore, the correct answer is suspension of license and registration and fines.Rate this question:

What should you do if approaching a steady yellow or amber signal?
- A.
Stop
- B.

Correct Answer
C. Slow down and stop before nearing the intersection only if possibleExplanation
When approaching a steady yellow or amber signal, the appropriate action is to slow down and stop before nearing the intersection only if it is possible to do so safely. This means that if it is not safe to stop suddenly, such as when you are too close to the intersection or there is traffic behind you, you should continue through the intersection with caution. However, if it is possible to stop safely, it is recommended to do so to avoid the risk of a collision.Rate this question:

- C.
Don't eat
- D.
Talking on phone
Correct Answer
B. Keep from looking at any one thing for more than a few secondsExplanation
A good practice while driving is to keep from looking at any one thing for more than a few seconds. This is because prolonged distraction from the road can increase the risk of accidents. By keeping our attention focused and scanning the surroundings, we can be more aware of potential hazards and react in a timely manner. It is important to avoid distractions such as looking at our phones, eating, or engaging in activities that take our eyes off the road. Additionally, speeding only when there are no police around is not a good practice as it disregards traffic laws and can endanger oneself and others on the road.Rate this question:

The lane closest to the curb in the direction you are heading
- C.
Any lane that allows you to turn so long as it is in the direction you are heading
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. The lane nearest the center in the direction you are headingExplanation
When making a left turn, it is important to turn into the lane nearest the center in the direction you are heading. This is because it allows for a smoother and safer turn, as it provides enough space to complete the turn and merge into the flow of traffic in the intended direction. Turning into the lane closest to the curb may cause the vehicle to cross multiple lanes of traffic, increasing the risk of accidents. Choosing any lane that allows the turn may lead to confusion and potential conflicts with other vehicles.Rate this question:

When driving in foggy conditions, it is important to use fog lights and low beams. Fog lights are specifically designed to cut through the fog and provide better visibility. They are positioned lower on the vehicle, closer to the ground, which helps to illuminate the road without reflecting off the fog. Low beams, on the other hand, provide a wider and shorter range of light, reducing glare and improving visibility in foggy conditions. Therefore, using both fog lights and low beams is the best combination to ensure safe driving in fog.Rate this question:

Using seat belts and shoulder belts increases your chances of surviving an accident. Seat belts are designed to restrain your body during a collision, preventing you from being thrown out of the vehicle or hitting the interior components. Shoulder belts, on the other hand, provide additional protection by securing your upper body and reducing the risk of severe injuries. By wearing both seat belts and shoulder belts, you are effectively minimizing the impact forces on your body, which significantly improves your chances of survival in the event of an accident.Rate this question:

- C.
Away from the direction your car is skidding
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
A. In the direction the back of your car is skiddingExplanation
When a car is skidding, it means that the back of the car is sliding out of control. To regain control and stabilize the car, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel in the direction that the back of the car is skidding. This helps to align the front wheels with the direction of the skid, allowing the tires to regain traction and the car to straighten out. Therefore, the correct answer is to turn in the direction the back of your car is skidding.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. At least 2 secondsExplanation
To ensure a safe distance between vehicles, it is recommended to stay at least 2 seconds behind the car you are following. This allows enough time to react to any sudden changes in the traffic ahead, such as braking or swerving. By maintaining this distance, it reduces the risk of rear-end collisions and provides a buffer zone for unexpected situations. It is a general guideline that helps drivers maintain a safe and appropriate distance on the road.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Take your foot off the gasExplanation
When a vehicle goes into a skid, it means that the tires have lost traction with the road surface. In this situation, hitting the brakes or continuing to accelerate by driving fast can worsen the skid and make it harder to regain control of the vehicle. By taking your foot off the gas, you allow the tires to regain traction and help the vehicle stabilize. This reduces the risk of further skidding and increases the chances of safely maneuvering the vehicle back onto the intended path.Rate this question:
