Israel Driving Theory Test

Question:1

What is a vehicle’s “stopping distance”?

The distance covered by the vehicle as of the moment in which the driver reacts to the risk until he steps on the brake pedal.

The required distance for stopping at a certain speed.

The distance covered by the vehicle from the beginning of braking until the vehicle stops.

The distance covered by the vehicle from the time that the driver identifies the risk ahead of him until the vehicle stops.

Question:2

What is the most important thing a motorcyclist should check before entering an intersection?

That no vehicle is driving in parallel to him at the same speed.

He should calculate the time needed to cross the intersection at his current speed.

In an intersection with traffic lights there is no need to check anything.

That the intersection is clear of traffic that might endanger him.

Question:3

What effect does a curve or a turn have on the motorcycle’s ability to brake?

It has no effect on the motorcycle’s ability to brake.

It requires the driver to slow down before the curve or the turn and to brake very gently.

The driver’s response time is doubled during turns or curves.

During a curve or a turn only the rear brake can be used and therefore braking is impaired.

Question:4

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:5

How should one change lanes?

Signal with the winker and make a short diagonal deviation to the intended lane.

After checking and taking account of the position and speed of other vehicles in the intended lane.

Drive as close as possible to the desired lane, and when no vehicle drives behind you – signal with the winker and make a short diagonal deviation to the intended lane.

Deviate quickly and fearlessly in a short diagonal, and verify that you are signaling with the winker.

Question:6

Why is it important to drive on the right side of the road?

It allows you to be assisted by the yellow line for driving in a straight line.

It qllows vehicle passengers to easily exit the vehicle.

In order to keep a distance from incoming traffic from the opposite direction, and reducing the risk of “head on” collision.

Question:7

What is the most important measure a motorcyclist can take while driving besides or nearby other vehicles?

Question:12

What risks are expected whilst driving on a mountain road?

Engine heating due to excessive use of the brakes.

Tire overheating.

Loosening of a wheel due to the roads steep slope.

Category : Safety

Question:13

What is the risk in braking while being forced to pull onto the “hard shoulder”?

The Vehicle may spin as a result of braking on different types of road surfaces that have different grades of friction.

Loss of steering ability as a result of excessive air pressure in the tires.

Loss of steering ability as a result of excessive brake use.

Vehicle spinning, because its front wheels become locked.

Question:14

Being familiar with the different systems in the driver’s compartment whilst driving:

Only contributes in a theoretical level, and has no other advantage.

Allows the driver to operate them automatically, without thinking.

Allows the driver to fully concentrate on the traffic and the road.

Allows the driver to blindly operate the vehicle systems.

Question:15

How is a motorcyclist required to overtake another vehicle?

As fast as possible, even if it means to exceed speed limit for a brief moment.

From the right side of the overtaken vehicle, and as close as possible to it.

From the left side of the overtaken vehicle, while keeping a proper side distance from it.

In a manner that allows him to always see the other vehicle in both mirrors.

Category : Safety

Question:16

Where on the motorcycle is it recommended to place luggage, so that its impact on the motorcycle’s stability is minimal?

Close to the rear end of the motorcycle and as high as possible.

Question:22

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.
