Not enough to pass :-(

Ouch! While you were on a roll there for a few questions, you didn’t pass this time. But I know this test, and I think you’ll pass next time. Really.

1. If two vehicles approach an unmarked intersection at the same time:
The driver on the right must yield to the driver on the left.
Both drivers should accelerate.
The driver on the left must yield to the driver on the right.
One driver should insist on the right-of-way.

If two vehicles arrive to an unmarked intersection at the same time, the driver on the left must yield the right-of-way to the driver on the right. No driver should assume that they will be given the right-of-way.

2. If someone has consumed alcoholic drinks, what will help the person overcome the influence of those drinks?
Tomato juice and lime
Hot coffee
Fresh air
Only time

Only the passage of time will allow a person to overcome the influence of alcohol.

3. 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.

4. This sign means:
/data/image/dmv_image/car/new-york-no_u_turn.png
No left turn.
No stopping.
No U-turn.
Detour ahead.

This sign indicates that U-turns are prohibited.

5. You are making a left turn from a two-way street onto a one-way street. When you have completed the turn, your car should be:
In the right lane of the street.
In the center of the street.
In the left lane of the street.
In the lane with the least traffic.

If you are turning left from a two-way street onto a one-way street, you should complete the turn into the lane closest to the lane you have just left.

6. Which of the following recommendations does not promote safe night driving?
Keep your windshield clean.
Be aware that tinted windows reduce visibility in the dark.
Carry a flashlight in your vehicle.
Look into the headlights of oncoming vehicles.

If you look into the headlights of an oncoming vehicle, the pupil of your eye will contract. After the oncoming vehicle has passed, there will be an interval of time during which the pupil must readjust to the less intense light. During this recovery period, you are virtually driving blind.

7. When you park uphill on a street with a curb:
Keep the front wheel straight and set the parking brake.
Turn the front wheels away from the curb.
Turn the front wheels toward the curb.
Turn the back wheels into the curb.

When parking on an incline where there is a curb, you should turn your wheels sharply to the left, away from the curb. This way, if your brakes fail, your vehicle will not roll into traffic.

8. A work zone:
May be moving or stationary.
Is marked with black and white signs.
Does not require a driver to slow down and pay extra attention.
All of the above.

Work zones are often stationary, but they may also be present in the form of moving vehicles striping lines, mowing, or removing snow. Work zones are marked by orange signs with black lettering or symbols. Slow down and pay extra attention when approaching or driving through a work zone.

9. Coming to a complete stop at an intersection, yielding to cross traffic/pedestrians, and then proceeding through the intersection when the way is clear corresponds with:
A solid red light.
A flashing yellow light.
A solid green light.
A flashing red light.

A flashing red traffic light means the same thing as a stop sign. You must come to a complete stop, yield to cross traffic and pedestrians, and then proceed when the way is clear.

10. This sign means:
/data/image/dmv_image/car/hawaii-divided_highway.png
One-way traffic.
Divided highway ahead.
Two-way traffic.
Keep left.

Warning signs are usually diamond-shaped with black markings on a yellow background. They alert drivers to upcoming hazards. This warning sign indicates that drivers are about to encounter a divided highway.

11. A driver approaching a flashing red traffic signal must:
Slow down at the light.
Drive carefully without stopping.
Merge to the right.
Stop before entering the intersection.

A flashing red light means that you must stop, yield to traffic and pedestrians, and go only when it is safe. At a railroad crossing, a flashing red light indicates that a train is approaching. Yield to the train, and go only when the lights have stopped flashing and all other active warning devices deactivate.

12. You must adjust your driving speed to accommodate for:
Existing road conditions.
Weather conditions.
Other traffic.
All of these.

When driving conditions are less than ideal, a driver must decrease their driving speed. Conditions may become less than ideal due to the road surface, weather, time of day, road width, or traffic.

13. Hand or mechanical turn signals must be given:
Only in city traffic.
Only when there is traffic to the rear of your vehicle.
Only when there is other traffic in sight.
When changing lanes or turning.

A hand or mechanical turn signal must be displayed for a minimum of 100 feet before a vehicle turns or changes lanes. The signal should be displayed for a longer distance when the vehicle is traveling at a high speed.

14. A person who drives much slower than the speed limit:
Is a very safe driver.
Always has the right-of-way.
Should not let following cars pass.
May create a dangerous driving environment.

Driving more slowly than the flow of traffic can be hazardous. If you are on a two-lane, two-way road and driving so slowly that traffic is backing up behind you, you are required to pull off the road and let the other vehicles pass. Only drive significantly under the speed limit when conditions require it.

15. Dim your high beam headlights when you are within ____ of an oncoming vehicle.
200 feet
400 feet
500 feet
300 feet

The glare of headlights from oncoming vehicles can cause the pupil of the eye to contract, restricting visibility. To protect other drivers when driving at night, change your headlights to their low beam setting within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle.

16. While backing, you should:
Rely only on your mirrors.
Flash your lights.
Open your door to see if it is safe to proceed.
Turn your head and look through the rear window.

When intending to back up, always check behind your vehicle before getting in. Children and small objects are difficult to see from the driver’s seat. While backing, turn your head so you can see through the rear window. Do not depend only on your mirrors or sensors.

17. While driving on a two-lane road without bicycle lanes, you encounter a bicyclist traveling in the same direction. What is the safest way to pass the bicyclist?
Slow down and wait until there is no traffic approaching, then pass the bicyclist while leaving him or her sufficient space.
Continue driving straight. It is the bicyclist’s responsibility to get out of your way.
Do not pass the bicyclist until you come to a traffic signal or stop sign.
Honk at the bicyclist to let him or her know you are about to pass.

You should pass a bicyclist the same way you would pass any other vehicle, but not so fast or close to them that you throw debris in their face or blow them around with the draft of air from your vehicle. Allow at least 3 feet of space between your side mirror and the bicyclist, or at least 5 feet on higher speed roads or when there is a group of bicyclists. Honking unnecessarily may startle riders and make them more likely to crash.

18. Slow down, yield, and be prepared to stop for pedestrians:
Only if a traffic light is yellow or red.
As they are crossing or walking on the roadway.
Only if they are in marked crosswalks.
Only if they are crossing the roadway.

Slow down, yield, and be prepared to stop when approaching pedestrians who are walking on or crossing the roadway. Always yield to pedestrians on the roadway, even if they are not following right-of-way laws.

19. A solid white line down the center of a two-lane road indicates:
Lanes are moving in opposite directions and drivers are not permitted to pass.
Lanes are moving in opposite directions and drivers are permitted to pass when it is safe to do so.
Lanes are moving in the same direction and drivers are not permitted to pass.
Lanes are moving in the same direction and drivers are permitted to pass when it is safe to do so.

White lines are used to separate traffic moving in the same direction. Solid lines indicate that drivers are not permitted to pass.

20. In a vehicle not equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), you should pump your brakes to slow down because:
It keeps air out of the brake line.
It prevents skids.
It prevents tires from going bald.
It stops you faster.

Pump brakes lightly to slow down or stop on a slippery surface. If your vehicle is equipped with ABS, check your vehicle manual for instructions on use.
