  2. B. Halfway round the bend
  3. C. At the sharpest point of the bend
  4. D. Just as you leave the bend

After a long motorway drive you take your exit. Slowing down, the car feels as if it is almost standing still. What should you rely on to judge your speed?

  1. A. The sound of the engine
  2. B. The speed of the cars around you
  3. C. Your speedometer
  4. D. Your own feel for the speed
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर C है: Your speedometer।

This is speed blindness: after driving fast you lose your sense of speed, so 60 km/h can seem more like 40 km/h. Check your speedometer, which gives the actual speed.

स्रोत: Handbook Chapter 3, pp. 55, 69Speed blindness is section 3.1.2.4 (page 55); the 60-feels-like-40 example is in section 3.4.4 (page 69).

  4. D. Switch on your hazard lights and keep your speed
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर B है: Slow down in good time and keep well clear of the site।

Road workers must concentrate on their work while watching for traffic. Show consideration: slow down in good time and keep well clear of the repair works site.

  2. B. Full-beam headlights, so the car can be seen from far away
  3. C. Parking lights, with the headlights switched off
  4. D. No lights at all, so that nobody is dazzled

  1. A. The vehicle
  2. B. The driver
  3. C. The road conditions
  4. D. The weather
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर B है: The driver।

  1. A. The brakes fade after being soaked in deep flood water
  2. B. The windscreen is blinded by spray from vehicles ahead
  3. C. The driving wheels spin when you accelerate out of a corner
  4. D. The car skids along a layer of water and cannot be steered
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर D है: The car skids along a layer of water and cannot be steered।

Aquaplaning (hydroplaning) happens when a tyre cannot drain away the water on the road. The car skids along the surface of a layer of water and becomes impossible to steer or brake.

स्रोत: Handbook §4.5.2, p. 83

On a flooded road, where does the handbook say the water is probably shallowest?

  1. A. Close to the right-hand edge of the road
  2. B. Close to the left-hand edge of the road
  3. C. At the crown, or centre, of the road
  4. D. In the wheel tracks left by other vehicles
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर C है: At the crown, or centre, of the road।

Because of the incline of the road, flood water is probably deepest near the edge and shallowest at the crown or centre. Keep to the shallowest part when you drive through.

  2. B. Vehicles that are badly maintained
  3. C. A lack of road courtesy
  4. D. Weather that reduces visibility

  4. D. Fewer accidents, but often very severe ones
जवाब दिखाएँ

Junctions with traffic lights have fewer accidents than uncontrolled junctions, but the accidents that happen are often very severe because of the high speeds involved.

स्रोत: Handbook §5.3, p. 97

According to the handbook, when are animals least visible and most likely to stray onto the road?

  1. A. Around midday
  2. B. In the middle of the night
  3. C. At dawn and dusk

  1. A. The ego stage
  2. B. The rule stage
  3. C. The community stage
  4. D. The overlearning stage

How does the handbook describe the impulsive personality?

  1. A. It acts first and thinks later
  2. B. It blames other people for its mistakes
  3. C. It pushes unpleasant thoughts to one side
  4. D. It copies the drivers around it without thinking
जवाब दिखाएँ

You pass the same quiet junction every day and almost never meet another car, so you have stopped slowing down for it. What does the handbook call this way of learning a bad habit?

  1. A. Reaction formation
  2. B. Learning by imitation
  3. C. Overlearning through repetition
  4. D. Probability conditioning

स्रोत: Handbook §6.2.8, p. 117

Why does the handbook say that chatting with a passenger is not the same as talking on a mobile phone while driving?

  1. A. Because a passenger usually talks more quietly
  2. B. Because a passenger sees the traffic and keeps quiet
  3. C. Because a phone call normally lasts much longer
  4. D. Because a passenger can take the wheel if necessary
जवाब दिखाएँ

उत्तर B है: Because a passenger sees the traffic and keeps quiet।

You adjust a conversation with a passenger to the traffic, and the passenger can see why you stop talking. A caller cannot see the road and is confused, so a phone call is not at all the same as talking to a passenger.

स्रोत: Handbook §6.7.1, p. 126

Three friends in your car urge you to accelerate hard and overtake. You do it, although alone you never would. What is the handbook’s name for the force acting on you?

  2. B. Repression
  3. C. Group pressure
  4. D. Impulsiveness

  3. C. Protect mainly against impacts from the side
  4. D. Tighten the seat belts before the impact

  2. B. Snugly across the stomach
  3. C. Loosely over the hips
  4. D. Snugly over the hips

  4. D. The child is kept safe because the driver is wearing a seat belt
