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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When a driver is changing lanes, it is important for them to indicate their intention to other drivers on the road. Giving the right or left turn signal communicates to others that the driver intends to move to the right or left lane respectively. This helps in maintaining safety and preventing accidents by giving other drivers the opportunity to adjust their speed or position accordingly. Therefore, it is correct to say that a driver must give the right or left turn signal when changing lanes.

    When must a driver slow down for a school zone?

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

    • Weekends

    • Only during recess

    Correct Answer
    A. School days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. when children are present and signs are posted
    Explanation
    Drivers must slow down for a school zone during 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 around the school area, and the signs are posted to alert drivers to the reduced speed limit. Slowing down in school zones helps ensure the safety of the children and reduces the risk of accidents.

    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 important for drivers to proceed with caution. Increasing speed to get out of the way quickly can be dangerous and may not allow enough time to react to any unexpected hazards. Honking the horn several times is also not necessary unless there is a specific need to alert individuals working in the area.

    Drivers whose licenses have been revoked as a result of DUI must meet several requirements, including undergoing an evaluation for alcohol and drug problems and paying a reinstatement fee, to regain their licenses.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Drivers whose licenses have been revoked as a result of DUI must meet several requirements, including undergoing an evaluation for alcohol and drug problems and paying a reinstatement fee, to regain their licenses. This statement is true because when someone's driver's license is revoked due to driving under the influence (DUI), they need to go through a process to regain their driving privileges. This process typically involves undergoing an evaluation to determine if there are any alcohol or drug problems that need to be addressed. Additionally, they are usually required to pay a reinstatement fee before their license can be restored.

  • 7. 

    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 is used to indicate to drivers that they should be ready to either change lanes or allow other traffic to enter their lane. This means that when drivers see a merge sign, they should be prepared to adjust their position on the road in order to accommodate merging vehicles. 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.

    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 several factors. Bridges are elevated structures, which means that cold air can circulate both above and below the road surface, causing the bridge to freeze more quickly and stay colder for longer periods. Additionally, bridges are exposed to wind from all sides, which can further lower the temperature and make it harder for the ice to melt. This combination of factors makes the road surface of a bridge more prone to remaining icy, even when the rest of the roadway is clear.

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When passing another vehicle, it is important for a driver to wait until the car they just passed is visible in the rearview mirror before turning back into the right-hand lane. This is because it ensures that there is enough distance between the two vehicles and reduces the risk of a collision. By waiting until the car is visible in the rearview mirror, the driver can ensure that they have successfully completed the passing maneuver and can safely merge back into the right-hand lane.

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

    • Strong coffee

    • Time

    • Cold shower

    Correct Answer
    A. Time
    Explanation
    Time is the only effective way to remove alcohol from the body. Alcohol is metabolized by the liver at a rate of about one standard drink per hour. No amount of coffee or cold showers can speed up this process. The body needs time to break down and eliminate alcohol from the system. Drinking water or engaging in physical activity may help to alleviate some of the symptoms of alcohol intoxication, but they do not remove alcohol from the body any faster.

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Driving privileges may be revoked for giving false information to the Secretary of State because providing false information is considered a violation of the law and can be seen as an attempt to deceive or manipulate the system. The Secretary of State is responsible for ensuring the safety and integrity of driving privileges, and giving false information undermines this responsibility. Therefore, as a consequence, driving privileges can be taken away if false information is provided to the Secretary of State.

    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 both ways, listening for any approaching trains, and reducing their speed, the driver can ensure their safety and the safety of others. This is because without warning signals, it may be difficult to determine if a train is approaching, and slowing down allows the driver to have more time to react if necessary. Therefore, the statement "True" is the correct answer.

    Rate this question:

  • 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
    In order 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 that may arise from future accidents. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    An orange sign means drivers should be alert, adjust their speed and be prepared to stop if necessary.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    An orange sign is used to indicate a warning or cautionary message to drivers. It serves as a signal for drivers to be attentive, adjust their speed, and be ready to stop if required. This helps ensure the safety of both the driver and other road users by alerting them to potential hazards or changes in road conditions ahead. Therefore, the statement "An orange sign means drivers should be alert, adjust their speed and be prepared to stop if necessary" is true.

    What should the driver of a vehicle 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 without a functioning traffic signal, the driver cannot rely on the signal to determine when it is safe to proceed. By coming to a full stop and yielding, the driver ensures that they do not enter the intersection when it may be unsafe to do so, allowing other vehicles to pass through the intersection safely.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Drivers are not allowed to break into the line of a funeral procession unless they have been given permission to do so. This is because a funeral procession is a solemn event that requires respect and consideration from other drivers on the road. Breaking into the line can disrupt the procession and show a lack of respect for the grieving family and their loved ones. Therefore, the statement "Unless authorized to do so, drivers may not break into the line of a funeral procession" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    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 smaller profile and are more vulnerable to sudden stops or changes in speed. Additionally, motorcycles can be more difficult to see in a driver's blind spot, 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
    Stopping on a railroad track, even for a short period of time, is never safe, regardless of whether you are moving with a stream of vehicles or not. It is important to always keep the railroad tracks clear to avoid any potential collisions with trains. Trains require a significant distance to come to a complete stop, and stopping on the tracks can result in a catastrophic accident. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    It is illegal for persons under 21 to drive with any trace of alcohol or drugs in their system.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because it is indeed illegal for individuals under the age of 21 to drive with any amount of alcohol or drugs in their system. This is due to the fact that underage individuals are not legally allowed to consume alcohol or use drugs, and driving under the influence poses a significant risk to both the driver and others on the road. Laws regarding drinking and driving vary by country and state, but in most places, there is a zero-tolerance policy for underage drinking and driving.

    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 over $500.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In accordance with the given statement, a crash report must be filed by the driver of a vehicle regardless of fault if the crash involves death, bodily injury, or property damage over $500. 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 these conditions are met. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

    Motorcyclists are entitled to use the full width of a traffic lane; therefore, a driver should pass a motorcycle the same way a driver would pass another vehicle.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Motorcyclists are entitled to use the full width of a traffic lane, just like any other vehicle. This means that drivers should pass a motorcycle in the same way they would pass another vehicle, giving them enough space and following the same rules of the road. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    If the front right wheel of a vehicle runs off the pavement, a driver should ease off the accelerator, brake gently and gently steer back onto the pavement.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When the front right wheel of a vehicle runs off the pavement, it is important for the driver to respond appropriately. By easing off the accelerator, the driver can reduce the speed and regain control of the vehicle. Braking gently helps to slow down the vehicle without causing further instability. Steering gently back onto the pavement ensures that the vehicle returns to the intended path smoothly and safely. Therefore, the correct answer is true as it accurately describes the appropriate actions a driver should take in such a situation.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    During blizzard conditions, it is safer for drivers to remain in their vehicles rather than venturing out. Vehicles provide a certain level of protection from the harsh weather conditions, such as wind, snow, and extreme cold. Leaving the vehicle can expose the driver to the risk of getting lost, disoriented, or succumbing to hypothermia. Furthermore, staying inside the vehicle increases the chances of being spotted by rescue teams or other passing vehicles, increasing the likelihood of being rescued.

    Rate this question:

  • 24. 

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    In most places, it is generally not allowed to pass another vehicle by driving on the shoulder of the road. The shoulder is typically reserved for emergency use, pedestrian access, or for vehicles that have broken down. Passing on the shoulder can be dangerous and is often illegal because it can lead to accidents, as other drivers may not expect a vehicle to be passing on the shoulder. Drivers are typically required to pass another vehicle legally, using the designated lanes and following traffic laws and regulations. Passing on the shoulder is considered an unsafe and prohibited driving maneuver in most jurisdictions.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    Alcohol is the single greatest factor in fatal motor vehicle accidents.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Alcohol impairs judgment, coordination, and reaction time, making it a significant contributing factor to fatal motor vehicle accidents. Research consistently shows that alcohol involvement increases the risk of crashes and the severity of injuries. Intoxicated drivers are more likely to engage in risky behaviors such as speeding or not wearing seat belts. Additionally, alcohol impairs cognitive functions necessary for safe driving, leading to poor decision-making on the road. Therefore, it can be concluded that alcohol is indeed the single greatest factor in fatal motor vehicle accidents.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Drivers must yield to pedestrians in an unmarked crosswalk because pedestrians have the right of way in these situations. An unmarked crosswalk is any intersection where there are no painted lines or signs indicating a crosswalk. Even though there may not be any visible markings, drivers are still required to stop and allow pedestrians to cross safely. This is to ensure the safety of pedestrians and prevent accidents. Therefore, the correct answer is True.

    Rate this question:

  • 35. 

    If a traffic light shows both a red light and a green arrow, a driver may not turn in the direction of the arrow until the red light has changed.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When a traffic light shows both a red light and a green arrow, it means that drivers are allowed to turn in the direction of the arrow even if the red light is still on. Therefore, the statement "a driver may not turn in the direction of the arrow until the red light has changed" is incorrect.

    After a train clears a crossing that has flashing signals, drivers may proceed after checking for a second train on another track.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    After a train clears a crossing that has flashing signals, drivers may proceed after checking for a second train on another track. This is because the flashing signals indicate that a train is approaching or passing through the crossing. Once the train has cleared the crossing, it is safe for drivers to proceed, but they should still exercise caution and check for any other trains that may be approaching on a different track to ensure their safety. Therefore, the statement is true.

    In urban areas, drivers moving out of an alley, building, private road, or driveway need not come to a complete stop before entering the roadway if the roadway is clear of traffic.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    In urban areas, drivers moving out of an alley, building, private road, or driveway must come to a complete stop before entering the roadway, even if the roadway is clear of traffic. This is because there may still be pedestrians or cyclists crossing the roadway, and stopping allows the driver to ensure it is safe to proceed. Failing to stop can lead to accidents and endanger the lives of others.

    The two-second rule helps the driver determine a safe following distance.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The two-second rule is a widely accepted guideline that helps drivers maintain a safe following distance. It suggests that a driver should stay at least two seconds behind the vehicle in front of them. This allows enough time for the driver to react and stop safely in case of any sudden changes or emergencies on the road. By adhering to the two-second rule, drivers can reduce the risk of rear-end collisions and ensure a safer driving experience.

    When experiencing a tire blowout, the driver should apply the brakes quickly and pull off the roadway to check the tire.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When experiencing a tire blowout, applying the brakes quickly can actually make the situation worse. It can cause the vehicle to swerve or skid, making it harder for the driver to maintain control. Instead, the driver should gradually release the accelerator and steer the vehicle in a straight line while keeping a firm grip on the steering wheel. Once the vehicle has stabilized, the driver can then slowly and safely pull off the roadway to check the tire. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    If driving during foggy weather, a driver should turn on the vehicle’s high-beam headlights to increase the field of vision.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Driving with high-beam headlights during foggy weather is not recommended. High-beam headlights produce a bright, focused light that can reflect off the water particles in the fog, creating a glare that further decreases visibility. Instead, drivers should use low-beam headlights or fog lights, as they are designed to provide a wider, more diffuse light pattern that helps to cut through the fog and improve visibility.
