9. 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.

10. To improve visibility lowered by rain or fog, drivers should use their:

Low beam headlights.

High beam headlights.

Parking lights.

Low beam headlights should be used when driving in rainy or foggy weather. Even if they do little to help you see, low beams will make it easier for others to see you.

11. If a child is riding a bicycle near your vehicle:

Beep your horn.

Expect the child to be in total control of the bicycle.

Expect the unexpected.

Children on bicycles are sometimes unpredictable. Young bicyclists are especially likely to make surprising changes in direction. Remember that children and bicycles are both small in stature and may become difficult to see.

12. What does a traffic signal with a yellow left arrow indicate?

Drivers should prepare to yield to oncoming traffic.

The protected left turn is about to end.

Both of the above.

When a protected turn arrow changes from green to yellow, drivers must prepare to yield to oncoming traffic. A yellow arrow indicates that the protected left turn is ending.

13. There are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right. You should steer:

Closer to the oncoming vehicles than the parked vehicles.

Closer to the parked vehicles than the oncoming vehicles.

A middle course between the oncoming and parked vehicles.

If there are oncoming vehicles to your left and a row of parked vehicles to your right, the best thing to do is to split the difference. Steer a middle course between the oncoming cars and the parked cars.

14. When passing another vehicle, it is safe to return to your lane if you:

Cannot see the vehicle directly to your right.

See the vehicle’s headlights in your rearview mirror.

Have passed the other vehicle’s front bumper.

Before returning to your original lane after passing, you must make sure you are not dangerously close to the vehicle you have just passed. When you can see both of the vehicle's headlights in your rearview mirror, you may have enough room to return to the lane.

15. A broken yellow line beside a solid yellow line indicates that passing is:

Permitted from the side next to the solid yellow line.

Not permitted from either direction.

Permitted from the side next to the broken yellow line.

When the center of the road is marked by a solid yellow line beside a broken yellow line, passing is permitted from the side next to the broken line and prohibited from the side next to the solid line.

16. Sudden wind gusts on highways:

Generally affect only the movement of large vehicles.

Only cause visibility problems.

Can cause problems for all vehicles.

While it can create special problems for large vehicles, strong wind can cause problems for all drivers. Wind can lower visibility by blowing dirt and dust into the roadway, but it can sometimes also physically move a vehicle.
