Israel Driving Theory Test

Question:1

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.

Question:4

How would you conduct yourself in a vehicle with automatic transmission, when driving down a continuous steep road?
