1. Why should you NOT turn off the ignition while your vehicle is still moving in an emergency?
✓ It disables the power steering, making the wheel hard to turn
Do not turn off the ignition while moving, because it disables the power steering and can make the wheel very hard to turn (Alabama Driver Manual). In a stuck-accelerator situation, shift to neutral instead and brake. Keep the engine on until you have safely stopped.
2. The surest way to avoid an alcohol-related crash is to ________.
✓ never drink and drive
The only sure way to avoid an alcohol-related crash is to never drink and drive - separate the two completely. Driving slowly, switching drinks, or waiting a short time does not make impaired driving safe. Plan a sober ride every time you'll be drinking.
3. Driving is considered:
✓ A privilege that comes with responsibilities
Driving is a privilege, not a right - it is granted by the state and can be suspended or revoked if you drive unsafely or break the law. With that privilege comes the responsibility to follow the rules and protect others. Treating it seriously keeps everyone on the road safer.
4. When you move to a new address, you must:
✓ Notify the motor vehicle agency within the time your state requires
You are required to notify the motor vehicle agency of an address change within the period your state sets (often a week or two). This keeps your license and registration records current so you receive important notices. Failing to update your address can cause you to miss renewal or suspension notices.
5. Before making a turn, you should signal continuously for ________.
✓ enough distance to let others react in advance
You should signal well before a turn or lane change so other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians have time to anticipate your move. Signaling at the last second defeats the purpose. Make early, consistent signaling an automatic habit, even when you don't see anyone nearby. (Exact required distance is set by each state.)
