Yes.

Only when a “descent ahead” sign is placed at the beginning of the descent.

Question:6

You are driving on a two-way road and in front of you drives a vehicle that signals with its left indicator:

You may immediately overtake it from its right, by pulling into the “hard shoulder”.

You should take into consideration that the vehicle before you might deviate to the left and you should allow it to do so.

You shouldn’t overtake it on a narrow roadway, but you may overtake it from its left side on a wide road.

You may overtake after using the horn to warn him. The signal he gives doesn’t oblige you.

Question:7

How would you conduct yourself according to the following picture?

Cyclists are of no danger to vehicles. Drive normally when they are nearby.

When passing by cyclists, honk a few times to have their attention.

Category : Safety

Question:8

What risks are expected whilst driving on a mountain road?

Category : Safety

Question:9

What are the most important conditions in order to safely pull onto the “hard shoulder”?

The only important condition is that it is permitted to stop on the “hard shoulder”.

That the hard shoulder is paved with asphalt or concrete.

That there are no color markings on the hard shoulder.

Category : Safety

Question:10

How does pedestrian behavior in the area of the intersection affect drivers?

Pedestrians have no significant effect on drivers.

The main complication in an intersection is created when pedestrians are crowded on the sidewalk.

Driver should anticipate in advance possible dangerous behavior from pedestrians in the area of the intersection.

Pedestrians occupy pedestrian crossings for significant time periods, thus causing traffic delays.

Category : Safety

Question:11

How would you conduct yourself when approaching a vehicle standing on the “hard shoulder”?

Honk to the driver of the parked vehicle.

Slow down.

Drive faster.

Signal and move to the left lane.

Category : Safety

Question:12

The distance covered by a vehicle from the moment we step on the brake pedal until the vehicle stops becomes bigger:

The faster we drive.

The longer is the response time.

The slower we drive.

The newer is the vehicle.

Category : Safety

Question:13

What are the risks of driving in high speeds?

Serious damage to the vehicles front tires and steering system.

Fast wear and tear of the engine.

There is risk in driving in high speeds.

Reduced ability of stopping the vehicle in time in order to prevent an accident, and even loss of control over the vehicle.

Category : Safety

Question:14

What is a “blind spot”?

The distance a driver should keep from other vehicles while driving in reverse.

Part of the vehicles circumference in which the driver cannot see or detect road users.

The non-paved area around the vehicle.

Part of the vehicles circumference which the driver can only see through the mirrors.

Question:15

What is a bus driver required to check before moving the bus?

Whether there are road users in his blind spots.

The steering system’s oil level.

The passenger belongings with a metal detector.

Whether he has adequate bus tickets.

Category : Safety

Question:16

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:17

What risks are expected when the bus driver makes a sudden brake?

Being hit by a parked vehicle.

Injuring the bus passengers.

Over heating of the brakes.

Skidding and rolling over while driving uphill.

Category : Safety

Question:18

What is the correct way for changing lanes?

Lane change should be done in two stages: First deviating and then signaling with the hand.

Lane change should be done in two stages: First deviating and then communicating with the other drivers.

You should pass to the other lane through the shortest diagonal distance and as quickly as possible.

First perform a check and glance at the mirrors, then check the lane you want to pass to, verify that you can pass to it and then deviate moderately (diagonally) to the other lane.

Question:19

What is a reasonable speed on a freeway(Motorway)?
