True

False

The fatal accident rate for night driving is nearly three times greater than it is for daytime driving, despite the fact that there are less miles driven at night. It is a good habit to drive more slowly at night than you would during the day because overall visibility is much more restricted in the dark.

Pedestrians must yield to you.

37. Which of the following commonly causes traffic accidents?

Inattentive driving

Excessive speed under the driving conditions

Following other vehicles too closely

All of the above

Driving too fast for conditions is a major cause of motor vehicle crashes. Being inattentive to surroundings can cause a driver to collide with other vehicles. Most rear-end collisions are caused by drivers following other vehicles too closely.

Whenever it may help prevent a collision.

To get other drivers moving in a traffic jam.

Drivers cannot see you unless they are looking your way. Your horn may get their attention. Use it whenever it will help prevent a collision.

39. At night, it is hardest to see:

Road signs.

Pedestrians.

Other motorists.

Street lights.

Compared to signs and other roadside objects, pedestrians are hardest to see at night.

40. You see pedestrians near the road. You should:

Sound your horn and maintain your speed.
