Question:4

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.

From the moment of applying the brakes until the vehicle reaches a complete stop.

From the moment the driver notices danger until the vehicle reaches a complete stop.

Category : Safety

Question:11

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:12

Are the vehicles within the sharp curve positioned correctly?

Yes, all vehicles are keeping to the right as required in this sort of situation.

You should enter a sharp curve when you are close to the middle of the roadway.

Category : Safety

Question:13

Which of the following sentences is correct, as regards to the behavior of pedestrian near an intersection:

When pedestrians are using a pedestrian crossing, they are not obliged to take account of drivers approaching the intersection.

Pedestrians are at no risk near an intersection.

An intersection is the most dangerous place on the roadway, as drivers take no sufficient note of pedestrians but only of traffic lights.

The safest place for pedestrians to cross is the pedestrian crossing next to the intersection, because drivers are obliged to slow down in the area of the intersection.

Category : Safety

Question:14

What is the correct sentence according to the following picture?

The road tanker driver doesn’t keep to the right of the roadway, even though he can not see the vehicles coming from the opposite direction.

The road tanker driver is driving far from the “soft shoulders” and in this way avoids risks.

The marking on the roadway is not clear enough.

The road tanker driver is driving correctly in the middle of the road, so that he can see better the vehicles coming from the opposite direction.

Category : Safety

Question:15

What is the distance we are required to keep from the vehicle in front of us while driving?

Any distance that allows us to see the back wheels of the vehicle in front of us while driving.

Any distance that always allows us to see well what’s happening ahead of the vehicle that is driving in front of us.

The required statutory distance in which accident may always be prevented, while taking all the relevant elements into consideration.

A distance which prevents entry of other vehicles in it.

Question:16

What should the driver verify before starting-up the engine?

That the hand (parking) brake is released.

Question:24

Proper adjustment of the driver’s seat:

Proper adjustment of the driver’s seat prevents the occurrence of “blind spots” while driving in reverse.

Is performed by the vehicle’s manufacturer during its manufacturing process, and additional adjustment of the seat is not needed.

Allows you to comfortably see the road and to have an easy and non-tiring drive.

Is an important action that should be applied during every periodic treatment of the vehicle.

Category : Safety

Question:25

What is the effect of driving at a high speed during an accident?

The driver’s response time is significantly shortened, and safety is enhanced.

High speed does not influence the outcome of the accident.

It causes greater force of collision and a more severe impact on humans and damage to property.

The driver’s response time is lengthened, and safety is thus enhanced.

Category : Safety

Question:27

What are the advantages of looking far ahead?

Looking far ahead extends the braking distance and enhances safety.

Obtaining all the information required for planning the drive according to the road’s conditions and avoiding surprises.

Forward is the only important direction for drivers, and therefore they should look straight ahead.

It allows you to engage in other activities at the same time, such as searching for an address in the GPS.
