41. What should you do when you see this sign?

Look for a train station ahead.

Signal before going any further.

Slow down and yield to trains.

A round sign means you are approaching a railroad crossing. This sign is posted a few hundred feet in front of the tracks and tells drivers to slow down, look, listen, and prepare to stop.

42. Night driving presents unique problems because:

The speed limit is increased at night.

There are fewer cars on the roads at night.

Distance and vehicle speed are difficult to judge in the dark.

Night driving creates a unique set of problems for drivers. Due to the reduced visibility, it can be difficult to judge distance and the traveling speeds of other vehicles when driving at night. Drivers can see only as far as their headlights allow.

Yield.

Stop.

Warning.

Diamond-shaped signs are used to warn drivers of special conditions or hazards ahead. They are typically yellow or orange in color.

44. Driving more slowly than surrounding traffic is:

A good idea if the weather is bad.

Appropriate if you don’t know the speed limit.

Often a hazard because other drivers may become frustrated and try to pass you.

Driving more slowly than other traffic can be dangerous. Drivers behind you may become impatient and will be tempted to take dangerous risks to pass you.

45. When driving on wet pavement, it's important to remember:

That pavement is especially slippery right after it starts to rain.

That wet roads can cause hydroplaning.

To give yourself additional space when coming to a stop.

All of the above.

Wet roadway surfaces can be dangerously slick, especially immediately following a rainfall. When you are driving on wet roads, your vehicle is traveling on a thin layer of oil, dirt, and water. Slow down when there is heavy rain, standing water, or slush on the road to reduce the risk of your wheels losing traction on the slick surface.

46. A solid yellow line on your side of the centerline means:

Reduce your speed.

Traffic light ahead.

Do not pass.

Solid yellow lines on two-lane roads indicate zones where passing is prohibited. If a solid yellow line appears next to a broken yellow line, drivers in the lane nearest to the solid yellow line may not pass. In some instances, both yellow lines will be solid, indicating that it is not safe to pass from either direction.

47. Which of the following best ensures your safety and the safety of those around you when you are backing your vehicle?

Honk your horn right before shifting into reverse.

Check behind the vehicle before you get into the driver's seat.

Check your rearview mirrors to see what is behind you.

Turn up the car radio before backing up to get the attention of anyone who may be around you.

Backing requires extra caution because it is difficult for drivers to see behind their vehicles. Before entering a vehicle to back up, walk to the back of the vehicle to check for children and small objects.

48. In rainy weather, you should be most careful when turning or stopping:

After it has been raining all day.

One half hour after it stops raining.

During the first half hour of rain.

You should be extra careful when turning and stopping during the first half hour of rain. At this point, the oil from cars has not yet washed off the pavement and could be forming a slippery mixture with the rain.

49. Safety belts help you stay alert by keeping you from slouching while you drive.

True

False

Safety belts help you to stay alert by keeping you from slouching while you drive. They also help keep you from getting tired by cutting down the effort needed to keep your body in the seat as the car bounces and turns.

All traffic must turn right.

All traffic must go straight.

A side road intersects ahead.
