1. To help others see you when daylight begins to fade, you should use your:

Parking lights.

Low beam headlights.

Emergency flashers.

As daylight begins to fade, turn on your low beams to help others see you. Only use your high beam headlights in an open area where no other drivers are present.

2. Large trucks are likely to lose speed when:

Driving up long or steep hills.

Driving in long, gradual curves.

Driving down long, gradual hills.

Because large trucks require more time to accelerate than smaller vehicles, trucks can lose speed driving up long or steep hills. Be cautious when driving behind a large truck and be sure to give the vehicle additional space, especially when driving on an incline.

3. Trucks' blind spots are:

Directly behind the body.

On the immediate left of the cab.

Both on the immediate left of the cab and directly behind the body.

A truck's blind spots are much larger than a smaller car’s blind spots. The driver cannot see your car behind their vehicle and you can't see what’s happening in traffic ahead if you're driving too closely behind the truck. Whether you are driving behind or to the side of the truck, if you can’t see the driver’s face in their side view mirror, then they can’t see you.

4. Tailgating other drivers (driving too closely to their rear bumper):

Can frustrate other drivers and make them angry.

Cannot result in a traffic citation.

Reduces collisions by preventing being "cut off."

Tailgating is a common behavior that can lead to aggressive driving, and so it should be avoided. Drivers may face legal consequences for driving unsafely.

5. In traffic moving at 50 to 55 mph, you are least likely to have an accident if you:

Drive a few miles per hour faster than most other vehicles.

Stay within that speed range.

Drive a few miles per hour slower than most other vehicles.

You should adjust your speed to travel smoothly with the other traffic on a roadway (provided that the other traffic is driving within the posted speed limits). Remember that vehicles moving in the same direction at the same speed cannot hit each other. Crashes involving multiple vehicles often happen when some vehicles are traveling at different speeds than others.

6. If you encounter an aggressive driver, you should:

Challenge them.

Get out of their way.

Speed up.

Drivers must respect and cooperate with all other road users and conform to specific rules in order to maintain order and to avoid crashes. When encountering an aggressive driver, it is safest to just get out of their way. Always avoid competing with other drivers.

7. You are driving behind a motorcycle and want to pass. You must:

Stay in the right lane as much as possible because the motorcycle is small and doesn't use all of the lane.

Blow your horn to make the motorcycle move onto the shoulder so that you can pass.

Have your vehicle entirely in the left lane before and during the pass.

When passing a motorcycle, allow a full lane to the motorcycle. Never crowd into the same lane as the motorcycle. Returning to the original lane too soon can force a rider to swerve to the right and into traffic or off the road.

8. A vehicle suddenly cuts in front of you, creating a hazard. What should you do first?

Honk and step on the brake firmly.

Take your foot off the gas pedal.

Swerve into the lane next to you.

If a vehicle merges in front of you too closely, take your foot off of the accelerator. This will create space between you and the vehicle ahead without requiring you to slam on your brakes or swerve into another lane.
