41. When preparing to make a left turn from a two-way street, you should drive:

Near the right-hand side of the road.

Near the centerline.

On the left of the centerline.

When you are turning left from a two-way street, begin in the lane closest to the centerline and start your turn just before the front of your car reaches the center of the intersection. Do not cut the corner. Steering hand-over-hand, turn into the first available legal lane.

42. You should signal continuously while turning because it:

Is illegal to turn off your signal before completing a turn.

Lets other drivers know what your intentions are.

Is always unsafe to turn off a signal before completing a turn.

You should always signal when turning, changing lanes, slowing down, or stopping so that other drivers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians will know your intentions.

43. Always signal when:

Changing lanes.

Pulling into or out of a parking space.

Pulling into traffic from a parking area or alley.

All of the above.

Your turn signals should always be used when you make any movement to the left or right. You should use your signal when pulling into traffic from a curbside parking space, moving into a new lane, or passing another vehicle.

44. A broken yellow line between two lanes of traffic means:

Both lanes of traffic are going in the same direction.

Passing is permitted when it's safe.

Passing is not permitted.

Dashed yellow lines separate single lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions. Passing is allowed when there is no oncoming traffic in the passing lane.

45. You should remove snow, frost, and ice from:

Just the windshield.

All windows, headlights, and taillights.

Just the windshield and passenger window.

Just the taillights and windshield.

It is important to be able to clearly see through all windows. It is also important that other drivers are able to see your vehicle under dangerous weather conditions. Remove snow, ice, and frost from all windows, headlights, and taillights before you start to drive.

46. A telltale sign of a drunk driver is:

They are weaving between lanes.

They are driving more slowly than the normal traffic flow.

They are making quick and sudden stops.

All of the above.

Telltale signs of drunk driving include speeding, weaving, driving more slowly than the normal traffic flow, making jerking motions, and making quick and sudden stops.

47. What is the purpose of rumble strips?

They alert drivers to potential tire problems.

They test a vehicle's shock absorbers.

Through vibration and sound, they alert inattentive drivers to the fact that their vehicles have left the travel lane.

Rumble strips create noise and vibrations to warn drowsy or inattentive drivers that they are straying off of the road or are approaching a stop sign or signal.

48. The best way to deal with tailgaters is to:

Speed up to increase the distance between you and the tailgater.

Slam on your brakes to get the other driver to back off.

Change lanes or gradually slow down to encourage them to pass.

Ignore them.

Check the traffic behind you several times a minute to know if another driver is tailgating, approaching too fast, or trying to pass. If another car is following you too closely, slow down and let it pass. Most rear-end collisions are caused by vehicles following too closely.

49. If you experience a tire blowout:

Tap or pump the brakes.

Slow down gradually and use your brakes lightly.

Apply the brakes firmly and quickly.

If you experience a tire blowout, you should slow down gradually by taking your foot off of the accelerator. Don't apply the brakes until the vehicle has slowed considerably.

Stop and check for traffic coming from both directions before proceeding.

Give the right-of-way to traffic on the road you wish to enter or cross.

Maintain a steady speed and check for traffic coming from all directions.

A three-sided yield sign indicates that you must slow down and be ready to stop, if necessary, to let any vehicle, bicyclist, or pedestrian pass before you proceed. In this case, you do not have the right-of-way.
