- C.

- D.

Explanation
During a road test, it is important not to fly through intersections. This is because flying through intersections indicates a lack of caution and disregard for traffic rules, which can be dangerous and lead to accidents. The examiner wants to observe your ability to follow traffic laws, including stopping at intersections and proceeding safely. Therefore, it is crucial to approach intersections with caution, obey traffic signals, and yield to other vehicles when necessary.

Explanation
If your test vehicle is registered out of state, you must show the examiner proof of insurance coverage equal to Massachusetts minimum limits, which are $20,000/$40,000 for bodily injury and $5,000 for property damage.
