19. When changing lanes on a freeway, you should:

Signal for at least five seconds.

Slow down before you start to change lanes.

Assume there is enough space in the next lane for your vehicle, if you signal first.

Signal at least five seconds prior to a changing lanes on a freeway. Always signal when turning left or right, changing lanes, slowing down, or stopping to let other drivers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians know your intentions.

20. If a child is riding a bicycle near your vehicle:

Beep your horn.

Expect the child to be in total control of the bicycle.

Expect the unexpected.

Children on bicycles are sometimes unpredictable. Young bicyclists are especially likely to make surprising changes in direction. Remember that children and bicycles are both small in stature and may become difficult to see.

21. If you are driving on a highway next to a single broken white line marking:

You cannot cross the line to pass.

You may cross the line to pass and change lanes.

You may only cross the line to change lanes if you are in the left lane.

White lines separate lanes of traffic moving in the same direction. You may cross a dashed white line to pass or change lanes if it is safe to do so.

22. Always carefully look for motorcycles before you change lanes because:

Their small size can make them hard to see.

They usually have the right-of-way at intersections.

It is illegal for motorcycles to share traffic lanes.

You should check carefully for motorcycles when changing lanes because their small size makes it easy for them to disappear into your blind spots.

23. The safest precaution that you can take when using cellular phones while driving is:

To use hands-free devices so you can keep both hands on the steering wheel.

To keep your phone within easy reach so you won't need to take your eyes off the road.

To review the number before answering a call.

Minors may not use a cellular phone while driving, except for certain emergencies. Cell phones are allowed to be used by drivers over age 18, but a hands-free device should be used.

24. You are approaching an intersection where a traffic signal is displaying a steady yellow light. If you have not already entered the intersection, you should:

Speed up to beat the red light.

Reduce you speed and proceed carefully through the intersection.

Come to a safe stop.

At an intersection controlled by a steady yellow light, you should bring your vehicle to a safe stop. If you are already within the intersection when the light changes from green to yellow, continue through the intersection at a safe speed.
