Category : Safety

Question:14

In your opinion, is the truck positioned correctly within the curve?

When driving on a sharp curve, it is required to stay in it as shortly as possible; hence his position is correct.

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.

No, the truck driver is not keeping to the right of the road and his position presents a risk to any vehicle coming from the opposite direction.

Category : Safety

Question:15

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:16

Which measures would you take in the following situation?

Slow down and stop if necessary.

Slow down and honk, to make the pedestrian stop.

There is no need to do anything special, because the pedestrian is far away from you.

Drive faster and move to the left lane.

Category : Safety

Question:17

How are you required to conduct yourself in the following road conditions?

Stay in low gear while keeping to the right.

Turn on the high beam, because of the shadow on the roadway.

Enter the curve carefully and increase speed when going downhill.

Honk, because of the obstructed field of vision in the curve.

Category : Safety

Question:18

What is the required conduct of a driver that exits a dirt road and intends to enter a paved road?

He should allow traffic from his right to continue driving undisturbed, and then enter the road.

He should enter the paved road: A vehicle exiting a dirt road has priority over vehicles driving on a paved road.

He should give way to all vehicles on the paved road, from right and left, and then enter the road.

He should honk, blink his lights and enter the paved road.

Question:20

The following picture contains several road elements. How should a driver respond when approaching these elements?

Slow down and keep to the right.

He should make a warning honk, continue driving in normal speed, glance at the mirrors and then drive faster to quickly cross the curve.

Approaching a curve in high speed is dangerous on a rough road only.

In the absence of a road sign warning about an incoming curve, there is no need to slow down. He should continue driving at normal speed.

Question:21

You are driving in a two-lane one-way street and try to overtake the vehicle driving in front of you. The main risk in deviating to the left is:

Disturbing a vehicle driving in the left lane.

Disturbing a vehicle driving behind you on your lane.

Category : Safety

Question:22

How does driving on the right side of the road affect drivers field of vision?

Keeping to the right improves the field of vision of the drivers in the vehicles behind you.

Driving on the right reduces the view angle of those driving behind you.

There is no connection between driving on the right and the field of view.

The field of vision is not affected: A comfortable field of view can only be created by doubling the required distance between vehicles.

Category : Safety

Question:23

Question:25

What effect does driving whilst keeping proper distance from the vehicle in front has on the vehicle’s fuel consumption and wear?

It is required to keep a proper distance to prevent accidents only, and it has no effect on the vehicle’s wear or fuel consumption.

The shorter is the distance kept from the vehicle in front, the lower are both brake wear and fuel consumption.

In order to keep proper distance from the vehicle in front you are required to constantly use the brakes, and therefore it causes quick brake wear.

When proper distance is kept – brake wear and engine fuel consumption are reduced,

What is the risk in shifting gears while driving a heavy vehicle down a steep descent?

There is no risk in shifting gears, and gears are not so important, as long as one of them is operated.

Shifting gears while driving down a steep descent is not dangerous.

There is no danger. By shifting from low gear to high gear while driving on a steep descent, the vehicle can drive faster.

There is a risk that the gear would not shift and the vehicle would stay in neutral gear.

Category : Safety

Question:28

What are the tedious driving conditions described in the following picture?

Wet road, poor visibility and heavy traffic.

Due to the weather conditions the traffic sign is not clear.
