Question:12

What are the reasons for a vehicle skidding on a road?

Late and sudden braking and the presence of elements that prevent traction on the road’s surface.

Roads with a high coefficient of friction.

Driver tiredness.

Tires that are not worn out cause vehicle skidding.

Category : Safety

Question:13

How would you get the attention of the overtaken vehicle’s driver while overtaking on a freeway (motorway)?

Use the horn for as long as you are passing him. It is important that he doesnt ignore you.

You are permitted, if it is necessary, to use the horn briefly before passing, .

During day light, turn on the vehicle’s parking lights.

If required, signal to him with the vehicle’s four direction indicators.

Category : Safety

Question:14

What should a vehicle driver do in case of a strong side wind?

Slow down and adjust the driving speed to allow him to control the vehicle – .

Turn on the fog lights and continue driving normally.

Drive faster to avoid the side wind.

Category : Safety

Question:15

What is the first action taken by drivers before crossing an intersection?

Checking and identifying the lanes after crossing the intersection, mainly in our direction of driving.

Looking beyond the intersection to identify the entry lanes to the opposite directions and the traffic in them

Making sure that the intersection is clear and that it can be crossed safely.

Entering the intersection.

Category : Safety

Question:16

Why should we avoid running the vehicle’s engine in a closed placed?

Because the emitted burnt gases (exhaust)are toxic.

To avoid engine over-heating due to poor ventilation.

There is no need to avoid it, because it is not important whether or not the engine is running in a closed or open place.

Because the engine cannot be operated in a closed place.

Question:17

Accidents that are a result of driver fatigue might occur:

On narrow and winding roads only, and not in straight, wide and comfortable road sections.

On roads with long and steep descents only.

When the driver’s level of alertness decreases.

On roads with long and steep uphill sections only.

Category : Safety

Question:18

Is it enough to signal only when you begin to drive?

Yes, when starting to drive we can make do with just signaling. Then, when we need to merge with traffic, we will have time to look around.

No, signaling doesn’t give you any right. You need to make sure that you look around correctly in addition to signaling.

Yes, unnecessary actions, besides the required signaling, waste precious time and create unnecessary tensions.

Yes, when we start to drive we are lawfully obliged to signal. It is the responsibility of other road users to be careful.
