Question:12

You are driving a heavy truck down a steep and long descent. When should you shift to an appropriate low gear?

The gears are insignificant for slowing down, but you must use the speed retarders intelligently.

There is no need to shift to low gear. You should shift to high gear and regulate your speed with the speed retarder, to increase safety.

You should shift to low gear towards the end of the descent.

You should shift to low gear at the beginning of the descent.

Category : Safety

Question:13

What measure is it important to take before stepping on the brake pedal in order to slow down or to stop?

Question:15

Does a-can of beer have a lesser effect on a driver compared to a whisky shot?

No. They both have a more or less equal effect on the driver’s ability to drive safely.

No, beer is not regarded as a drink which affects one’s driving.

Yes, beer has more alcohol than whisky.

No, the quantity of beer is greater and therefore its effect is greater.
