1. This sign means:

Curves ahead.

Divided highway starts.

Divided highway ends.

Bumps in the road.

This sign warns drivers that the divided highway ends ahead.

2. A person's ability to drive can be impaired by:

Alcohol.

Any medication.

A lack of sleep.

All of the above.

The ability to drive safely is dependent on the driver being in good physical condition. Driving can be impaired by alcohol, legal and illegal drugs, and being drowsy.

3. Pentagonal signs indicate:

No passing zones.

School zones.

Speed limits.

Railroad crossings.

Pentagonal signs indicate that you are in a school zone. Be extra alert to children and pedestrians when driving near a school.

4. What is the only medically proven method of removing alcohol or other drug combinations from your system?

Breathe in some fresh air.

Give your body time.

Drink coffee.

Alcohol takes effect quickly and is slow to leave your system. Cold showers, black coffee, and exercise will do nothing to reduce a person's blood alcohol content (BAC). The only way to lower your BAC is to wait.

5. When changing lanes, you can check your blind spots by:

Using the inside rearview mirror.

Using the outside rearview mirror.

Using both inside and outside rearview mirrors.

Turning your head and looking over your shoulder.

You should turn your head to check your blind spots before every lane change.

6. As the percentage of alcohol (BAC) in your blood increases, you become:

More intoxicated.

More sober.

More coordinated.

Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is a measure of the percentage of alcohol in a person's blood. The higher the BAC, the more impaired a person is.

7. When backing up:

Look through the rear window.

Press hard on the gas pedal.

Rely only on your rearview mirror.

When backing up, place your right arm on the back of the passenger seat and look directly through the rear window. Do not depend on your rearview or side mirrors as mirrors do not show directly behind your vehicle. Only drive in reverse at a low speed.

8. 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.
