1. If your headlights suddenly fail at night, you should:
✓ Slow down, try the headlight switch and hazard lights, and pull off safely
If your lights fail at night, slow down, try the headlight and emergency-flasher switches, and carefully pull off the road to a safe spot. Use parking lights or hazards to stay visible while you stop. Driving on without lights or tailgating another car for its light is dangerous.
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. When approaching an intersection where you cannot see clearly, you should:
✓ Slow down and be ready to stop (cover the brake)
At an intersection with limited visibility, slow down and cover the brake so you can stop instantly for a hidden vehicle or pedestrian. Relying on right-of-way doesn't help if someone else fails to yield. Caution at blind intersections prevents many serious crashes.
4. When driving in Maryland, you must carry:
✓ Your driver's license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance
When driving in Maryland you must carry a valid driver's license, the vehicle registration, and proof of insurance, and show them to law enforcement on request (Maryland Driver's Manual). The title stays at home. Keep these documents current and in the vehicle.
5. To make a right turn at an intersection, you should turn from and into:
✓ The lane nearest the right curb, ending in the right lane
A right turn should begin from the lane nearest the right curb and end in the right lane of the road you enter, keeping your path tight and predictable. Swinging wide or turning from another lane cuts across traffic and surprises other drivers. Position yourself in the correct lane well before the turn.
