Example Question #1 : Dmv Driver License Test
Precipitation is likely to freeze in temperatures below __________.
Temperatures below will cause precipitation on the roadway to freeze. Drivers should exercise extra caution and reduce speeds when driving in these conditions. Also, it is important to remember that bridges will freeze faster than other roadways under these conditions.
Example Question #1 : Special Driving Conditions
On average, traffic fatalities at night are __________ than in the daylight.
two to three times lower
two to three times higher
four to five times higher
three to four times lower
three to four times higher
three to four times higher
On average, collisions that occur during the night are more frequent and traffic fatalities at night are three to four times higher in the day. There are three primary reasons for the increased danger associated with night driving. Vision is limited at night and drivers may be temporarily blinded by the lights of other cars; furthermore, there is a greater probability of encountering fatigued drivers as well as those under the influence of drugs and alcohol. This has caused many states to have higher fines at night for certain moving violations.
Example Question #1 : Dmv Driver License Test
Which of the following indicates the minimum amount of time needed to create a safe buffer of distance between vehicles?
None of these
It is recommended that drivers create a distance of four seconds between vehicles. This enables the driver to have ample time to respond to emergencies. A shorter distance creates danger for both cars following one another because at this distance the driver behind the leading vehicle may not have time to react to sudden movements. In order to create this distance, the driver of the trailing car should mark a distinct, stationary spot on the road and count for seconds until they pass it. In doing so, they will create a proper buffer of distance between vehicles.
Example Question #1 : Dmv Driver License Test
Which of the following actions constitutes a lane change?
None of these
Entering a highway from an entrance lane
All of these
Entering the roadway from the curb or shoulder
Changing from one lane to another on a roadway
All of these
All of the choices indicate a lane change. Before one changes lanes they should perform the following: give the proper turn signal, check their mirrors, and physically check blindspots by quickly looking over his or her shoulders. Lane changes at speeds should be done deliberately and cautiously to avoid collisions from hesitation or quick braking.
Example Question #1 : Rules Of The Road
Which of the following best describes how a driver should treat a flashing red light?
None of these
The driver should treat the light at the intersection like a stop sign
The driver should stop and follow a detour
The driver should slow and proceed with caution
The driver should stop and await directions from emergency services
The driver should treat the light at the intersection like a stop sign
A driver should treat a flashing red light as a stop sign. Flashing red lights indicate that the driver should come to a complete stop, check for oncoming traffic, and proceed through the intersection when it is clear. A flashing red light does not imply that the driver proceed with caution. A flashing yellow light indicates that a driver should slow down, look, and proceed with care.
Example Question #2 : Dmv Driver License Test
What is the proper procedure for crossing a four-way intersection with a non-functioning traffic signal?
Stop, look both ways, and proceed if the intersection is clear
None of these
Stop and find an alternate route
Slow, look both ways, and proceed if the intersection is clear
Stop at the intersection and await directions from emergency services
Stop, look both ways, and proceed if the intersection is clear
When a driver encounters a downed or non-functioning signal, they should treat it as a stop sign. In this case the intersection should be treated as a four-way stop. The driver should slowly approach the intersection, stop, look both ways, and proceed through the intersection when it is clear.
Example Question #2 : Rules Of The Road
Which of the following best describes how a driver should proceed when a green arrow turns into a green light?
The driver should stop until he or she sees another green arrow
The driver should turn as normal
The driver should turn on his or her hazard lights
The driver should yield to oncoming traffic and may turn if the way is clear
The driver should change lanes and proceed without turning
The driver should yield to oncoming traffic and may turn if the way is clear
When a driver approaches a green arrow that changes to a green light they should yield to oncoming traffic and only turn if traffic is clear. They may not just simply turn because when the light changes opposing traffic are given the right to proceed through the intersection. If the driver were to turn at this time, then they would either cut of or collide with oncoming traffic.
Example Question #3 : Rules Of The Road
According to the interstate numbering system, one or two digit odd numbered interstates are generally described as which of the following?
East-west routes
North-south routes
South-west routes
North-east routes
North-west routes
North-south routes
Generally speaking, the interstate number system permits drivers to make assumptions about the roads they travel. In accordance with this logic, one or two digit even numbered interstates generally travel east-west routes. On the other hand, one or two digit odd numbered interstates generally travel north-south routes.
Example Question #4 : Rules Of The Road
According to the interstate numbering system, one or two digit even numbered interstates are generally described as which of the following?
South-west routes
North-south routes
East-west routes
North-east routes
North-west routes
East-west routes
Generally speaking, the interstate number system permits drivers to make assumptions about the roads they travel. In accordance with this logic, one or two digit even numbered interstates generally travel east-west routes. On the other hand, one or two digit odd numbered interstates generally travel north-south routes.
Example Question #5 : Rules Of The Road
A driver may pass another car when there is a __________ line dividing two lanes.
broken white
double yellow
solid yellow
solid white
All of these
broken white
A driver is only permitted to pass another car on a two lane highway when a broken white line is present. As a general rule, solid lines indicate that cars cannot pass one another. On the other hand, broken lines indicate that vehicles may pass one another. Engineers may decide that curvy roads or those with poor visibility may be too dangerous to allow vehicles to pass.
