Israel Driving Theory Test

Question:1

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:2

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.

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

Continue driving into the intersection, regardless of the pedestrians.

Question:3

What characterizes the following road?

Category : Safety

Question:9

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.

Category : Safety

Question:10

According to the following picture, what caused the poor field of vision?

A disruption in the field of vision can only be a result of blinding by another vehicle driving in the opposite direction.

Category : Safety

Question:12

How is the required distance for overtaking determined?

It only depends on the driving speed of the overtaken vehicle and not of the overtaking one.

Question:14

What is a driver required to do after crossing a flooded road section?

Stop at the side of the road and wait until the braking system dries up completely.

Make a strong and sudden brake and check if the brakes are responding.

Drive slowly and press gently and intermittently on the brake pedal, to ensure that the brakes function properly.

Continue driving normally, because there is no connection between water and the braking system’s efficiency.

Question:15

What risks are expected whilst driving on a mountain road?

Engine heating due to excessive use of the brakes.

Loss of braking ability and head-on collision. Difficulty yo pull off the road.
