17. A flashing red traffic light at an intersection means:

The same thing as a yield sign.

21. If someone is driving aggressively behind you, you should:

Try to get out of the aggressive driver’s way.

Stare at the driver as he or she is passing you.

Speed up as he or she is passing you.

Block the passing lane.

If you encounter an aggressive driver, you should make every attempt to get out of their way. You should avoid making eye contact with a hostile driver. Challenging a hostile driver by speeding up may only make them angrier, thereby increasing their danger.

Turn off all your lights.

Use your parking lights only.

Turn on your emergency flashers and leave your low beams turned on.

If you stop along the road at night, turn on your emergency flashers and leave your low beam headlights turned on. Be sure that other road users will be able to clearly see your vehicle.

On an incline.

At an intersection.

At a stop sign.

At a toll plaza.

You should allow more space in front of your vehicle than usual when you are stopped on an uphill slope. If the vehicle in front of you rolls backward toward your vehicle when traffic begins to move again, it is less likely that there will be a collision.

24. Emergency vehicles:

Have the right-of-way when using sirens, horns, and/or flashing lights.

May use a loudspeaker to give instructions.

May follow each other.

All of the above.

You must yield the right-of-way to police cars, fire engines, ambulances, or any other emergency vehicles using a siren or air horn and a red or blue flashing light. Follow any instructions given over the emergency vehicles' loudspeakers. Emergency vehicles often follow each other so you should proceed only when you are certain the way is clear.

Three alcoholic drinks an hour.

One alcoholic drink an hour.

Two alcoholic drinks an hour.

None of the above.

The average person’s body will process about one alcoholic drink in one hour.
