Question:2

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.

Question:3

According to the picture, who of those involved should take measures to prevent an accident?

The vehicle and the pedestrian are far from each other; hence no measures should be taken.

Question:4

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.
