They are smaller and more difficult to see than adults.

Both of the above.

Children are often the least predictable pedestrians and the most difficult pedestrians to see. Take extra care to look out for children, especially near schools, bus stops, playgrounds, parks, and ice cream trucks. Be aware of children riding bikes on the sidewalk, as they may come onto the road unexpectedly.

Wait for signal lights to stop flashing.

12. When should you yield your legal right-of-way?

Often, even at controlled intersections.

Whenever it helps prevent collisions.

Never. It confuses other drivers.

14. Sudden wind gusts on highways:

Generally affect only the movement of large vehicles.

Follow the other vehicles and enter the intersection.

Even if you are facing a green traffic light, do not start across the intersection if there are other vehicles blocking your way. If you are caught in the intersection when the light changes to red, your vehicle will block cross traffic. You can get a ticket for blocking an intersection.

16. On slippery roads, you should:

Slow down.

Drive more quickly.

Drive the speed limit, with caution.

Not drive more quickly than 20 mph.

You should slow down at the first sign of rain, snow, or sleet, all of which can create slippery road conditions. When conditions on the road are less than ideal, safety may require that you drive more slowly than the posted speed limit.
