Are always aware of the risks they are taking.

Do not have sufficient control over their bodies and minds or the vehicles being driven.

Are better drivers because they are more careful than sober drivers.

Have quicker reaction times.

Alcohol is a depressant that negatively affects judgment, vision, concentration, understanding of reality, and reaction time. It is never safe to consume alcohol in any amount before getting behind the wheel of a car.

28. When passing a large vehicle, the driver of a small vehicle must be prepared for:

Loud noises.

Excess air pollution.

Wind gusts produced by the large vehicle.

Falling vehicle parts.

Large vehicles can cause wind gusts with a force great enough to cause direction changes in smaller vehicles. Drivers of small vehicles should be prepared to take proper corrective steering action when approaching or passing large vehicles that are moving at or near maximum speeds.

Blow your horn, steer right, and accelerate.

Blow your horn, steer left, and brake.

Blow your horn, steer right, and brake.

Stay in the center of your lane, blow your horn, and brake.

If another vehicle is approaching you head-on in your lane, you should first honk your horn to attract attention. If the other driver does not move over, try to escape to the right. If you swerve left and the other driver corrects at the last instant, you will still crash. If a collision is unavoidable, brake firmly and steadily. Every mile per hour you slow down will reduce the impact.

Proof of insurance.

Their license.

Proof of registration.

All of the above.

When stopped for a traffic violation or at an equipment check, the driver is responsible for producing their license, proof of registration, and proof of insurance. Drivers are required to have all three of these documents in a vehicle when it is being driven.
