Limited field of vision.

Congested traffic on the roadway.

Category : Safety

Question:15

Is it enough to signal only when you begin to drive?

Yes, when starting to drive we can make do with just signaling. Then, when we need to merge with traffic, we will have time to look around.

No, signaling doesn’t give you any right. You need to make sure that you look around correctly in addition to signaling.

Yes, when we start to drive we are lawfully obliged to signal. It is the responsibility of other road users to be careful.

Category : Safety

Question:16

Category : Safety

Question:17

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.

The pedestrian should stop and allow the vehicle to continue driving.

The driver should slow down and even stop if necessary.

The pedestrian should walk faster and finish crossing.

Category : Safety

Question:18

Why should we avoid running the vehicle’s engine in a closed placed?

Because the emitted burnt gases (exhaust)are toxic.

To avoid engine over-heating due to poor ventilation.

There is no need to avoid it, because it is not important whether or not the engine is running in a closed or open place.

Because the engine cannot be operated in a closed place.
