1. On a freeway, you should look farther ahead than you would on a city street:

In order to see potential hazards early.

Because it takes a quarter of a mile to stop your vehicle completely.

Because it helps you keep up with traffic.

On the freeway, be ready for changes in traffic conditions. Watch for signals from other drivers. Expect merging vehicles at on-ramps and interchanges and be prepared for rapid changes in road conditions and traffic flow.

2. Which of these statements is true about drugs and driving?

Any prescription drug is safe to use if you don't feel drowsy.

Even over-the-counter drugs can impair your driving.

Only illegal drugs can impair your driving.

Legal prescription and over-the-counter drugs can impair your ability to drive, including drugs taken for colds, hay fever, allergies, or to calm nerves or muscles. It is illegal to drive while under the influence of any drug that impairs your ability to drive safely; this law does not differentiate between illegal, prescription, or over-the-counter drugs.

3. Allow extra space in front of your vehicle when following a:

Station wagon.

Passenger vehicle.

Motorcycle.

Allow for extra space when driving behind a motorcycle. Motorcycles can stop more quickly than other vehicles can and you must have adequate room to stop if the motorcyclist brakes or falls off. Also, remember that motorcycles are difficult to see at night because they only have one tail light.

4. When passing another car, you have enough space to return to the driving lane:

If the other driver signals for you to re-enter the lane.

If you look over your shoulder and see the passed car behind you.

If you can see both of the passed vehicle's headlights in your rearview mirror.

Before you return to the driving lane when completing a pass, be sure there is a safe gap between your vehicle and the passed vehicle. When you can see both headlights of the vehicle in your rearview mirror, it is safe to return to the driving lane.

5. You are driving on the freeway behind a large truck. You should drive:

Closer behind the truck than you would if following a passenger vehicle.

Farther behind the truck than you would if following a passenger vehicle.

To the right side of the truck and wait to pass.

It is necessary to follow farther behind a large truck than you would if following a passenger vehicle because trucks have larger blind spots.

6. You consent to take a chemical test for the alcohol content of your blood, breath, or urine:

Only if you have been drinking alcohol.

Whenever you drive in California.

Only if you have a collision.

By driving in California, you consent to have your breath, blood, or urine tested if you are arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.
