Not quite. The answer is not increase your speed

If you are being passed by another vehicle, don't increase your speed until the pass is complete.

Not quite. The answer is four times.

If you double your speed, your braking distance becomes not twice as long but four times as long. If you triple your speed, your braking distance becomes nine times as long.

Not quite. The answer is make a left turn.

If a driver extends his or her left arm horizontally, it indicates that the driver intends to make a left turn.

Not quite. The answer is a deceleration lane.

To exit a limited-access highway, enter a deceleration lane before you start to slow down. Slow down in the deceleration lane, which will lead to an exit ramp.

Not quite. The answer is try not to slow down suddenly

When you turn off a high-speed, two-lane roadway, try not to slow down suddenly; you might get rear-ended by the vehicle behind you. Use your turn signals to let other drivers know your intentions. Tap your brakes and reduce your speed quickly but safely.

Not quite. The answer is Flag person ahead

This construction or work zone sign indicates a flag person ahead. Flag persons are often located in highway or street work zones. They use red flags or stop/slow paddles to guide traffic safely through these areas. You must follow the flag person's directions.

Not quite. The answer is increase your speed.

If you are being tailgated, slow down and encourage the driver behind you to pass. If this fails, pull over, stop, and let the tailgater pass. Don't increase your speed in an attempt to appease or outdistance the tailgater. No speed is too fast for some tailgaters.

Not quite. The answer is signal a left turn and look over your left shoulder

If you are parallel parked on the right side of a street, you should signal a left turn and look over your left shoulder for approaching traffic before you pull out into traffic. If you are parallel parked on the left side of a one-way street, signal a right turn and look over your right shoulder for approaching traffic before you pull out into traffic.

Not quite. The answer is Pull off the road and move away from traffic.

If your vehicle breaks down on the road, make sure that other drivers can see it. If you are having vehicle trouble and need to stop, perform these steps: Pull off the road, away from all traffic if possible. Turn on your emergency flashers. Lift the hood to signal the emergency and place emergency flares or triangles behind your vehicle.

Not quite. The answer is two-second

You must allow at least a two-second following distance for each 20 feet of your vehicle's length. Bus drivers and tractor-trailer drivers must leave a greater following distance than car drivers.

Not quite. The answer is leftmost

On multilane roads, the leftmost lane is intended to be used for passing slower vehicles. If you pass on the right, the other driver may have difficulty seeing you and may suddenly change lanes in front of you.

Not quite. The answer is Car B

When you turn, you should cross as few lanes as possible unless signs or pavement markings indicate otherwise. That is, you should turn left from the left lane and turn right from the right lane, and you should turn into the closest lane of traffic that is moving in the right direction. Here, Car B has turned correctly into the closest lane. Car A has incorrectly turned into the farthest lane. [Proper Turning Rules, Turns, Rules of the Road, Wyoming Rules of the Road],

Not quite. The answer is the middle or left lane.

If you are driving faster than other traffic on a freeway, you should use the middle or left lane.

Not quite. The answer is turn off your cell phone until you reach your destination.

A distraction is still a distraction, even on a straightaway or an empty road. Do not eat, drink, smoke, text, read, or have difficult conversations while driving. If possible, turn off your phone and keep it off until you are done driving for the day.

Not quite. The answer is the rightmost lane.

On a highway with four or more lanes, slower traffic should use the rightmost lane. Under Wyoming law, it is illegal for a vehicle to drive below the speed limit in the leftmost lane of a highway and obstruct faster vehicles.

Not quite. The answer is Never

Driving on the shoulder to pass another vehicle is prohibited.

Not quite. The answer is do not increase your speed.

If another vehicle is passing you on the left, allow the other vehicle to pass safely, and do not increase your speed.

Not quite. The answer is you must not drive across the median or barrier except at an approved crossover.

When a highway is divided into two roadways by a median or barrier, you must not drive across the median or barrier except at an approved crossover.

Not quite. The answer is from your left and no oncoming traffic turning left into your path.

Before turning right at an intersection, make sure that there is no traffic approaching from your left and no oncoming traffic turning left into your path. Also yield to pedestrians who are crossing the road that you are going to enter.
