| While driving in urbane situations | be ready to reduce speed and change vehicle position |
| How do you use Identify in the IPDE Process for city driving? | Be vigorous in using your visual skills |
| How far ahead should you look when driving in city traffic? | A block or more ahead |
| The 3 second following distance technique | is safe for most conditions |
| You can avoid being hit by a tailgater if you | Increase your following distance to at least four seconds |
| Follow another vehicle too closely | tailgate |
| What are some rural situations that require increased following distance? | being tailgated, following a motorcycle, following a snowplow |
| How do you pass a slow moving vehicle | Slowly and safely |
| Which of the following provides advance information and warning about approaching driving situations? | traffic controls |
| Solid yellow lines | no passing situations |
| What roadways have seperated lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions? | Divided |
| What is a sudden unexpected rush of water from heavy rain | flash flood |
| Place on mountain roads for vehicles to safely get out of traffic when their brakes are not effective? | Runaway vehicle ramp |
| Sign posts on a curve with suggested speeds for ideal conditions | advisory speed signs |
| Additional right lane on mountain roads for slower moving vehicles | pull out area |
| What is one strategy you can follow for low risk driving on expressways? | Build experience gradually |
| If traffic is backed up on the exit ramp you want to use, you should | use next exit |
| Speed used by most drivers on an expressway | common speed |
| Stretch of roadway at the end of an acceleration lane where vehicles join the flow of traffic | merging area |
| What over your lane warns you that the lane will be closed ahead? | A yellow X |
| Traffic is more dense, city hazards are closer to you | Two main factos that make city driving difficult |
| You can see further ahead to get the "big picture", others can see you better, have more time to use IPDE process, better position to avoid sudden braking car ahead | Adequate following distance advantages |
| Pick fixed checkpoint, count 3 seconds, check vehicle checkpoint | Steps to measure 3 second following distance |
| Closed rear zone, traction is low, approaching sight restricition, pulling a trailer, carrying a heavy load, unsure driver ahead, following a motorcycle | Situations to maintain extra distance in |
| Move to right, signal turns early, change lanes, four second following | Actions to avoid being hit in the rear |
| Driver impairment, poor judgement, poor visibility, reduced space, others' sudden moves, vehicle failure, turning buses, double parked vehicles | Reasons for crossing the center line |
| Slow and wait, turn on headlights, flash your headlights, blow your horn, move to right, swerve if needed | Actions to avoid a collision with an oncoming vehicle |
| Cover your brake, move left, look for drivers, be alert, lightly tap horn, if needed stop, if needed swerve | Actions to identify and respond to the risk of parked vehicles |
| Drive with flow, drive speed limit, adjust speed, adjust position | Techniques to select your best driving speed |
| Increase following distance, adjust your speed, adjust lane position, move to lane | techniques to position your vehicle in multilane city traffic |
| Use your mirrors, signal change early, check blind spot, quickly change lanes, cancel your signal | Steps if you must change lanes |
| line of sight, stopping distance, vehicle control, amount of damage, amount of injury | Things speed affects |
| See the curve, check rear zone, check left zone, check right zone, lane position 1, lightly apply brakes, see road direction, see path openess, begin to accelerate, evaluate target area | Steps when you approach a curve |
| loose gravel projecting, utility lines crossing, reflectors marking driveway, mailboxes on edge | Clues of driveways |
| Is it worthy? Is it legal? Is it safe? | Deciding to pass |
| Check signs ahead, look ahead, check roadway conditions, check roadway shoulders, check rearview mirrors, glance over left, check oncoming traffic, check for driveways, check for side roads | Preparing to pass |
| Sight is restricted, space is narrow, front zones closed, cross traffic present | Passing is illegal and unsafe |
| before railroad crossing, on two-lane bridge, on under pass, on curves, sight is limited, traffic is too close, no passing zone, when turning soon, when stopping soon | other no passing situations |
| Cross traffic eliminated, expressways have medians, pedestrians not permitted, wide shoulders good, extra-wide underpasses good, helpful expressway signs | Five main reasons why expressways have fewer collisions |
| entrance ramp,acceleration lane, merging area | three parts of an expressway entrance |
