1. If your vehicle begins to skid, you should ________.
✓ Ease off the gas and steer in the direction you want the front to go
To recover from a skid, take your foot off the gas and steer smoothly in the direction you want the front of the car to go, avoiding hard braking. Slamming the brakes or steering the wrong way usually makes the skid worse. Gentle, controlled inputs let the tires regain grip.
2. For a driver under 21 in Connecticut, the BAC limit is:
✓ 0.02% (zero tolerance)
Connecticut enforces a zero-tolerance limit of 0.02% BAC for drivers under 21 (CGS 14-227a/g). Penalties for an underage OUI (0.02–0.079%) are generally the same as a standard OUI. Any measurable alcohol is dangerous for a young driver.
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. After a crash in which someone is injured, you should:
✓ Render reasonable aid and call for emergency help
After a crash with injuries, you must give reasonable assistance - such as calling 911 for medical help and not moving seriously injured people unless they are in danger. Rendering aid is a legal duty after a crash. Only move an injured person if leaving them risks greater harm, such as fire.
5. A lane marked with a diamond symbol on the pavement is:
✓ A high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) / carpool lane
A white diamond on the pavement marks a high-occupancy vehicle (HOV), or carpool, lane reserved for vehicles carrying the minimum number of occupants shown on the signs. Using it without enough passengers is a violation. The diamond is the standard nationwide symbol for these lanes.
