Passing Score 32

9. 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.

10. When may you use hand and arm signals instead of mechanical turn signals?

During the night.

During the day.

When driving a loaded vehicle that blocks your hand signals from other drivers.

In low-visibility situations.

During daylight hours, hand and arm signals may be used in addition to or instead of mechanical turn signals. You may not use hand signals at night or while driving a vehicle constructed or loaded so that hand signals are not clearly visible to other drivers.

11. Consuming which of the following substances may impair your ability to drive safely and may result in an arrest for driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUII)?

Beer, wine, and other liquor

Controlled substances, such as illegal drugs or prescription medicines

Inhalants, such as glue or paint

All of the above

A wide variety of intoxicants can impair your ability to drive. These include all types of alcoholic beverages, illegal drugs, inhalants, and many legal medications (both prescription and over-the-counter).

12. You are driving on a busy street and your vehicle’s accelerator sticks open. You should:

Blow your horn.

Slam on your brakes.

Turn on your four-way flashers.

Turn off your ignition, taking care not to engage the steering wheel locking mechanism.

If your vehicle’s accelerator sticks open, your vehicle will continue to maintain its speed or accelerate, even if you remove your foot from the gas pedal. Turn off the ignition, using care to move the ignition switch only far enough to stop the engine and not engage the steering wheel locking mechanism. Apply your brakes and move off the road to a safe area.

13. While backing, you should:

Rely only on your mirrors.

Flash your lights.

Open your door to see if it is safe to proceed.

Turn your head and look through the rear window.

When intending to back up, always check behind your vehicle before getting in. Children and small objects are difficult to see from the driver’s seat. While backing, turn your head so you can see through the rear window. Do not depend only on your mirrors or sensors.

14. Before switching on the ignition, you should:

Be sure only backseat passengers have buckled their seat belts.

Be sure only adult passengers have buckled their seat belts.

Be sure only child passengers have buckled their seat belts.

Be sure all of the vehicle's occupants have buckled their seat belts.

Develop a routine for entering and leaving your car. Before switching on the ignition, buckle your safety belt and see that all passengers do likewise.

15. Fog can greatly reduce the visibility of other vehicles, pedestrians, and traffic signals. When driving in fog, you should:

Drive cautiously and reduce your speed.

Not use your high beam headlights.

Use low beam headlights to better illuminate the road and objects.

All of the above.

Fog can greatly reduce your ability to see other vehicles, pedestrians, and traffic signals. When driving in fog, drive cautiously and at reduced speeds. Do not use high beam headlights. Low beams better illuminate the road and objects ahead in foggy conditions.

16. If you want to get off the freeway but you have missed your exit, you should:

Go to the next exit.

Make a U-turn through the median.

Pull onto the shoulder and back your car to the exit.

Flag down a police officer for an escort back to your exit.

If you miss your exit, you should take the next exit. Do not stop or back up on the highway, swerve across multiple lanes to try to make the exit at the last second, or cross over the median to turn around. All of these maneuvers are illegal and extremely dangerous.
