Israel Driving Theory Test

Question:1

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,

Question:2

“Beer is not considered as an alcoholic drink”:

Correct. Beer is regarded as an alcoholic drink, but it doesn’t influence driving at all.

Incorrect. The influence of beer is similar to that of any other alcoholic drink.

Correct. Beer is not regarded as an alcoholic drink.

Correct, but the influence of beer is different than that of other alcoholic drinks.

Question:3

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.

Question:4

How would a strong side-wind affect the movement of the tall truck?

The wind pushes to divert the truck, and the truck driver would be forced to slow down and overcome the lateral force that pushes him to the side.

It would have no effect. A commercial vehicle carrying a heavy load is not affected at all by side winds.

Side winds do not affect heavy vehicles.

It would have no effect. The truck, without cargo, is not affected by the force of side winds.

Question:5

What is the advantage of driving at a low speed during dangerous situations?

The driver’s reacting time is longer and he has enough time for making the right decisions.

The driver’s reacting, braking and stopping times are all longer, and therefore safety is improved.

The drrivers quicker reaction, braking and stopping times are all shorter.

The driver’s reacting time is longer and is sufficient for stopping.

By driving faster.

By driving lawfully and always giving right of way.

By reducing speed.on corners and curves

Question:8

The vehicle’s braking distance is the distance covered by the vehicle:
