Israel Driving Theory Test

Question:1

What effect does keeping distance have on the driver’s field of vision?

Keeping distance has no connection to the driver’s field of vision.

Keeping distance affects the driver’s field of vision while driving in high speeds and during stormy weather conditions only.

The greater is the distance we keep from the vehicle in front, the better is our field of vision.

Keeping distance affects the driver’s field of vision during traffic congestion only (“traffic jams”).

Question:2

How do dirty mirrors affect vehicle safety?

Dirt might damage the safety systems.

A clean vehicle helps to improve the driver’s concentration and general feeling.

A dirty vehicle endangers and pollutes its close environment.

They impair the driver’s vision.

Question:3

How can we minimize the risk of brake loss while driving on a mountain road?

It is advisable to use the brakes without utilizing the engine’s braking power.

Drive in anappropriate (low) gear and avoid excessive use of the brakes.

Don’t use the brakes much and stay on high gear.

Do not change gears along the mountain road.

Question:4

How does driving on the right side of the road affect drivers field of vision?

Keeping to the right improves the field of vision of the drivers in the vehicles behind you.

Driving on the right reduces the view angle of those driving behind you.

There is no connection between driving on the right and the field of view.

The field of vision is not affected: A comfortable field of view can only be created by doubling the required distance between vehicles.

Question:5

How can you be safe while driving on a congested road?

By sticking close to the vehicle in front.

By keeping distance from your front only.

When driving on a congested road, no special attention should be given to the issue of safety.

Make sure to make a peripheral check, keep a safe distance in all directions and drive at a reasonable speed.

Category : Safety

Question:6

It is prohibited to drive too close to the vehicle in front of you:

During the dark only.

Only when the weight of the vehicle in front is more than 4 tons.

On a steep descent and only after a “dangerous descent” sign.

Because it might brake suddenly.

Category : Safety

Question:7

How is a driver supposed to deal with a situation in which pedestrians are crossing his driving lane on a crossing whilst he is making a right turn?

He should continue driving, because vehicles have priority of passage in intersections and therefore pedestrians must wait.

Slow down and even stop, and allow the pedestrians to cross at the pedestrian crossing.

Honk to warn the pedestrians and continue driving into the intersection.

Continue driving into the intersection, regardless of the pedestrians.

Category : Safety

Question:8

In your opinion, is the white vehicle within the curve positioned correctly?

No, the vehicle is close to the middle of the roadway and it endangers vehicles coming from the opposite direction.

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.

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

Category : Safety

Question:9

What should you do when you are about to start driving after stopping or parking at the side of the roadway?

You should signal with your left hand and swiftly merge with traffic. .

You should, before starting to drive, signal and then get on the road quickly.

Make a left-signal and drive. The other vehicle should give you right-of-way.

You should signal appropriately and ensure that you can merge with the traffic without endangering other road users.

Question:10

One of the conditions justifying an overtaking of a driving vehicle is:

That the overtaking vehicle is delayed as a result of the slow driving of the vehicle in front.

There are no conditions that justify an overtaking.

That the difference in speed between the overtaking and the overtaken vehicles is sufficient to complete the manouver.

That the overtaken vehicle drives slower than the maximum statutory speed.

Category : Safety

Question:11

What characterizes the following road?

It is a play street. You should adjust your speed appropriately, up to a maximum of 40 k.p.h.

The absence of pedestrians on the roadway; hence there is no risk of being surprised by them. All is in order.

It is an urban road with parked vehicles, and pedestrians might emerge from between the parked vehicles.

The roadway looks very wide and no surprises are expected.

Category : Safety

Question:12

How would you handle the following situation?

Slow down and overtake the cyclist, whilst maintaining proper lateral distance from him and observing his movements.

Drive behind the cyclist until after the intersection and then honk and pass him quickly.

Honk to the cyclist until he clears away from your driving lane, and pass him as quickly as possible.

Drive faster and overtake the cyclist before entering the intersection in which overtaking is prohibited.

Category : Safety

Question:13

A panoramic mirror:

Causes the objects that reflect in it to look smaller and farther.

Is very expensive and therefore used only in buses.

Increases the size of reflecting objects.

Precisely reflects the objects mirrored in it (without increasing or decreasing their size).

Category : Safety

Question:14

What is required in order to change lanes without causing any disturbance or risk?

The driver should only verify that he gives a signal with the winker while changing lanes.

The driver should give a timely signal from a sufficient distance, perform a peripheral check in all directions, and glance at the mirrors, before starting to change lanes.

The driver should communicate with other drivers and give a signal 3km before changing lanes.

The driver should give a signal with the winker and with the headlights while changing lanes.

Category : Safety

Question:15

What is the required conduct of a driver that exits a dirt road and intends to enter a paved road?

He should allow traffic from his right to continue driving undisturbed, and then enter the road.

He should enter the paved road: A vehicle exiting a dirt road has priority over vehicles driving on a paved road.

He should give way to all vehicles on the paved road, from right and left, and then enter the road.

He should honk, blink his lights and enter the paved road.

Category : Safety

Question:16

What are the risks of driving continuously for many hours?

Engine power decreases, and that reduces the braking capacity.

Severe tiredness and a tendency to fall asleep.

A healthy driver faces no danger in driving continuously for many hours.

Category : Safety

Question:17

Driving down a long steep hill on a n Inter-urban road

Go to a higher gear to complete the gradient quickly.

Travel in Neutral.

Brake for a few seconds so as not to drive too fast

Sow down, change down to a lower gear according to the gradient

Category : Safety

Question:18

What effect does the distance between vehicles have on the overtaking process?

Short distance reduces the field of vision and increases the risk in overtaking.

The closer we are to the vehicle in front of us, the safer is the deviation while overtaking.

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:19

Is it permitted to overtake according to the situation described in the picture?

Yes, provided that we take all the required precautions to avoid hitting children that might run into the roadway.
