1. Before driving when your windows are covered with ice and snow, you should:
✓ Clear all the windows so you can see clearly
Before driving, you must clear ice and snow from all windows so you can see clearly in every direction (Wisconsin Motorists' Handbook). By law you must be able to see clearly through the windshield. Also clear snow from the hood, roof, and lights.
2. Drinking on an empty stomach, compared with after a meal, will ________.
✓ raise your BAC faster
Alcohol is absorbed faster on an empty stomach, so your BAC rises more quickly than if you had eaten. Food slows absorption but does not prevent impairment or lower your eventual BAC. The only safe choice is still to not drink and drive.
3. Defensive driving is best described as:
✓ Anticipating hazards and others' mistakes so you can avoid crashes
Defensive driving means looking ahead, anticipating what others might do wrong, and keeping space and options so you can avoid crashes even when others make mistakes. It assumes other drivers may not see you or may act unpredictably. This mindset prevents far more collisions than simply following rules.
4. Driving on a license that has expired is ________.
✓ illegal - you must renew it first
It is illegal to drive on an expired license; you must renew it before it expires (or before driving again). Most agencies let you renew online or by mail within a set window. Check your expiration date and renew on time to avoid a citation.
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.
