1Question 1 of 20
What do these double arrows mean?
Not quite. The answer is Traffic may flow on both sides.
This sign means that traffic on the road may flow on both sides of the sign.
2Question 2 of 20
If your vehicle stalls on railroad tracks when a train is approaching, what should you do?
Not quite. The answer is Get everyone out of your vehicle.
A train can't yield the right-of-way to you. A train traveling at 60 mph can take more than a mile to come to a complete stop. Therefore, if your vehicle gets stuck on a railroad track when a train is approaching, don't spend any time trying to free your vehicle. Instead, get everyone including yourself out of your vehicle and walk at about a 45-degree angle to the tracks in the direction from which the train is approaching. That way, if your vehicle is hit, you and your passengers will not be struck by flying debris. Call the telephone number on the Emergency Notification System (ENS) sign or 911.

12Question 12 of 20
When a driver's blood alcohol concentration (BAC) rises, which of the following happens?
Not quite. The answer is All of the above.
Once you drink alcohol, it enters your bloodstream and starts affecting all of your bodily processes, such as coordination, self-control, and reaction time. The only "cure" to alcohol's affect on your brain is to wait until it exits your bloodstream.

However, if the traffic light is completely dark, you must treat the intersection like an all-way stop (i.e., as if there were a stop sign at each approach to the intersection). That is, you must stop before entering the intersection, yield according to the right-of-way rules for stop signs, and then proceed (with extreme caution) when it is safe to do so.
15Question 15 of 20
What should you do if you are approaching a steady yellow traffic signal?
Not quite. The answer is Stop if you can do so safely.
A steady yellow traffic light is a warning that the traffic light will soon turn red. You should stop if you can do so safely. (Never speed up to try to "beat the light" before it turns red.) But don't stop suddenly and risk skidding or getting rear-ended by the vehicle behind you. If you cannot stop safely, proceed with caution into the intersection.

Use high beams whenever there are no other vehicles nearby. High beams allow you to see twice as far as low beams. Be sure to use high beams on unfamiliar roads, in construction areas, or where there may be people alongside the road. However, use low beams in fog, rain, or snow. Light from high beams reflects back from such precipitation and can cause glare.
