Passing Score 28

25. A driver can legally pass on the right side of another vehicle:

If the vehicle is waiting to turn left and there is an available passing lane.

Even if it means driving off the pavement.

On a narrow bridge.

At any time.

If there is an available passing lane, you may pass on the right of a vehicle or bicycle that is turning left or waiting to turn left. It is also legal to pass on the right when driving on a multilane road with two or more lanes traveling in the same direction. You may never drive off the pavement or main-traveled portion of the road to pass another vehicle.

26. Signaling your intentions before turning, changing lanes, or driving away from a curb:

Is necessary only if other traffic is present.

Is a good driving habit and is required by law.

Is necessary only during the maneuver, not before.

Is not necessary if the maneuver is done slowly.

When changing lanes or turning, signal your intentions well in advance. The law requires that you signal for at least 100 feet before you move your vehicle to the right or left. Before pulling away from a curb, always signal to inform passing drivers of your intentions.

27. The posted maximum speed limit is the fastest you can drive in an area.

True

False

The posted maximum speed limit is the fastest legal driving speed in an area, under ideal conditions. You must reduce your speed when conditions require it, such as when the roadway is slippery or when it is difficult to see clearly down the road.

28. It is unlawful in Iowa for any driver to read, write, or send a text message while driving.

True

False

It is unlawful for any driver in Iowa to read, write, or send a text message while driving. Before using an electronic communication device to write, send, or read a text message, a driver must safely bring their vehicle to a complete stop off the traveled portion of the roadway.

29. It is important to be alert to motorcycles because:

They are more difficult to see than cars.

They rarely use their headlights.

Motorcyclists are less skilled drivers than other motorists.

All of the above.

Motorcycles are smaller and harder to see than cars. Because of their size, they are easily hidden in a car’s blind spot. It may be difficult to judge your distance to a motorcycle and difficult to tell how fast a motorcycle is moving, so always be alert and extra cautious when near a motorcyclist.

Until after you pass the sign.

Unless it seems safe to do so.

For any reason.

A white rectangular sign indicates that you must obey the stated rule. This sign means that drivers should not pass other vehicles for any reason.
