Question:9

When you are overtaking another vehicle on a two-lane two-way roadway:

Don’t worry: The overtaken vehicle should deviate to the right and allow you to overtake it easily.

You are commiting a traffic violation! This type of overtaking is illegal.

You take a risk of another vehicle appearing in the opposite lane.

This type of overtaking usually last 30 seconds.

Category : Safety

Question:10

In order to overtake safely, the overtaking driver should:

Start overtaking only when the road is clear in a sufficient distance, and verify while overtaking that the road is still clear.

Overtake only when a sign permitting overtaking is placed.

Overtake in a speed that exceeds speed limit, in order to clear the road way.

Always overtake at a slow speed and with patience.

Category : Safety

Question:11

What are you required to ensure, among other things, before lifting the car in order to change a wheel?

That the handbrake is released until the wheel is taken off and a new wheel is installed.

That the handbrake is released throughout the change of the wheels.

That the car will not move.

There is no connection between the hand (parking) brake and the need to change a wheel.

Category : Safety

Question:12

In your opinion, is the truck positioned correctly within the curve?

When driving on a sharp curve, it is required to stay in it as shortly as possible; hence his position is correct.

In sharp curves it is necessary to “cut” through the curve, in order to reduce the centrifugal force (the force that acts on the vehicle while it turns).

When there is no other vehicle in the curve it is possible to be positioned anywhere within it.

No, the truck driver is not keeping to the right of the road and his position presents a risk to any vehicle coming from the opposite direction.

Category : Safety

Question:13

What is the danger caused by fueling the vehicle while its engine is running?

There is no danger in keeping the engine running during vehicle fueling.

Combustion of fuel fumes by a spark.

When the engine is kept running, fuel consumption is increased.

Engine overheating might flare-up the fuel.

Question:24

According to the picture, what limitation is faced by the green (commercial) pick-up truck that wishes to turn right?

The motor scooter intends to drive straight; hence there is no danger in turning right.

The pick-up truck is permitted to turn right even though the motorcycle is on his right because the law does not forbid it

The driver of the pick-up truck should be careful, because there is another vehicle driving in a “blind spot” to his right.

The pick-up truck is statutory prohibited to turn right.

Category : Safety

Question:25

Where is the biggest “blind spot” in a commercial vehicle?

It depends on the size of the vehicle’s rear view mirror: The larger it is, the bigger is the dead spot in front.

The reaction distance is always longer than the braking distance.

The braking distance is always longer that the stopping distance.

The stopping distance is always longer than the braking distance.

Category : Safety

Question:28

What problem faces a vehicle driver who is driving at a high speed?

His response time is decreased, and thus his driving becomes more dangerous.

There is no problem at all: Research work has proven that in high speeds driving is more calm and relaxed.
