17. A steady yellow traffic signal light is a warning that the light is about to change to red. If you are already within the intersection when a green light changes to yellow, you should:

Stop.

Continue moving and clear the intersection safely.

Increase your speed so as not to cause an accident.

If you are already within an intersection when the traffic light turns yellow, you should clear the intersection as quickly as possible.

18. If the roadway is wet or icy, you should:

Reduce your speed.

Drive at the posted speed.

Speed up.

Because your tires will not grip the road under wet, snowy, or icy conditions as well as they will under dry conditions, you should slow down if the roadway is wet or icy.

19. If you are about to be hit from the rear, you should not:

Release your seat belt.

Brace yourself.

Press your head against the head restraint.

If your vehicle is hit from the rear while you are in forward motion, your body will be thrown backward. Brace yourself by pressing against the back of your seat and putting your head against the head restraint to prevent whiplash. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and be ready to apply your brakes to avoid being pushed into another vehicle.

20. When driving under snowy or icy conditions:

It is safe to use your cruise control.

Make speed and directional changes more gradually than you would otherwise.

Drive as you would under normal conditions.

When driving under snowy or icy conditions, you should make speed and directional changes gradually. Never use cruise control when driving on snow or ice because your tires may lose contact with the road and you will lose control of your vehicle.

All traffic must turn left.

No left turn.

No U-turn.

This sign means drivers cannot make a left turn. It is unsafe and unlawful to make a left turn at an intersection where this sign is posted.

22. Which of the following describes the thinking of defensive drivers?

They know other drivers will do the right thing.

They consider what other drivers might do and are prepared to react.

They expect no breaks and give none.

Driving defensively means anticipating potential errors made by others and preparing to compensate for their mistakes.

23. Which of the following blocks the smooth flow of traffic?

Slowing down to look at collision scene.

Avoiding unnecessary lane changes.

Using public transportation instead of your vehicle.

Rubbernecking (the practice of slowing down to look at collisions or other out-of-the-ordinary things) contributes to traffic congestion and should be avoided.

24. After passing a vehicle, it is safe to return to your driving lane when:

The driver you passed signals for you to return to your lane.

You signal your intention for three seconds.

You see the headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror.

Before you return to your driving lane, be sure you are not dangerously close to the vehicle you have just passed. One way to do this is to look for the vehicle in your inside rearview mirror. When you can see both headlights in your rearview mirror, you may have enough room to return to your driving lane.

25. It is illegal for a person 21 years of age or older to drive with a minimum blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of:

0.05 percent.

0.08 percent.

0.02 percent.

For drivers age 21 or older, it is illegal to operate a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 percent or higher. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is not only illegal, but dangerous.
