1. This sign means:

Bicycle crossing.

Stop.

Fines double in a work zone.

Stop ahead.

Warning signs prepare drivers for upcoming road conditions and hazards and are usually yellow with black markings. This sign alerts drivers to potential bicycle cross traffic.

2. How may drivers fight oncoming "Highway hypnosis?"

Scanning the road, not staring.

Stopping every 100 miles.

Only driving a maximum of eight hours a day.

All of the above.

Drowsiness or unawareness can be brought on by reduced activity and the steady sounds of the wind, engine, and tire hum. This is known as "Highway hypnosis." Highway hypnosis can be combated by drivers continuing to move their eyes while driving and by stopping to stretch every 100 miles, even if they don't feel tired. To be safe, drivers should only drive for a maximum of eight hours in one day.

3. Which of the following influence(s) the effects of alcohol?

The amount of food in the stomach

The body weight of an individual

How much time passes between drinks

All three choices

Your blood alcohol content (BAC) depends on how much alcohol you drink, how much time passes between drinks, and your weight. Eating before or while you drink helps slow the absorption of alcohol somewhat, but it cannot prevent intoxication or impairment if you have too much to drink.

4. You come to an intersection displaying a flashing red light. You should:

Come to a full stop and go when it is safe to do so.

Stop only if other cars are also approaching the intersection.

Stop only if other cars are already within the intersection.

Slow down and be prepared to stop, if necessary.

A flashing red traffic light has the same meaning as a stop sign. You must stop, yield the right-of-way, and go once it is safe.

5. If a flagger is directing traffic in a construction zone, you must:

Follow the directions given by the flagger.

Copy what surrounding traffic is doing, despite the flagger's instructions.

Assume the flagger is not supposed to be directing traffic.

Follow the laws that would be in place if the area was not under construction.

Be prepared to reduce your speed and use caution when directed to do so by a sign, flagger, or law enforcement officer. Failure to do so is illegal and is dangerous to those working in construction zones.

6. When using a hand signal to indicate a turn, when should drivers stop holding the signal?

In the middle of the turn

After completing the turn

Immediately before making the turn

Three or four seconds before making the turn

If using a hand signal, hold the signal until you are close enough to the intersection for others to know your intention. Do not hold the signal while making the turn. You need both hands on the wheel.
