Question:3

How can a correct grip of the steering wheel help to control the vehicle and to keep it stable?

The distance between vehicles has no effect on the safety of overtaking.

The closer we are to the vehicle in front of us, the shorter and safer is the overtaking distance.

Category : Safety

Question:10

What is the advantage of driving at a low speed during dangerous situations?

The driver’s reacting time is longer and he has enough time for making the right decisions.

The driver’s reacting, braking and stopping times are all longer, and therefore safety is improved.

Category : Safety

Question:11

Which factors affect the driver’s decision to shift to higher or lower gear?

When driving uphill, there is no consideration whether to shift to higher or lower gear.

The only affecting factor is the cumulative driving distance.

Category : Safety

Question:12

Slow down.

Honk.

Accelerate.

Stop.

Category : Safety

Question:13

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:14

How would a strong side-wind affect the movement of the tall truck?

The wind pushes to divert the truck, and the truck driver would be forced to slow down and overcome the lateral force that pushes him to the side.

It would have no effect. A commercial vehicle carrying a heavy load is not affected at all by side winds.

Side winds do not affect heavy vehicles.

It would have no effect. The truck, without cargo, is not affected by the force of side winds.
