Slow down to 30 mph or less Turn on your headlights Turn on your emergency flashers

In Kansas, headlights must be used from one half hour after sunset until one half hour before sunrise, and at any other time when persons and vehicles are not clearly discernible at a distance of 500 feet.

# 4: When brakes fail and you cannot get them to work:

Helps traffic flow smoothly and causes less accidents Can be just as dangerous as excessive speed Is a recommended safe driving practice

Driving more than 15 mph slower than the traffic flow pattern can be just as dangerous as excessive speed. It tends to make vehicles bunch up behind the slower-moving vehicle and causes the other traffic to take greater risk to pass the slower vehicle. If vehicles are bunched up behind a vehicle, the slow-moving vehicle should pull over when safe to do so and let other vehicles pass.

# 8: When approaching or passing a bicyclist, you should:

# 11: Hydroplaning occurs:

When your tires lose traction on wet pavement When your car overheats When your brakes stop working

Hydroplaning occurs when your tires lose traction and start to ride on water instead of the road. As you go faster, the problem becomes worse and you will lose control of your steering.

In a standard passenger car, partial hydroplaning starts at about 35 mph, and increases with speed to about 55 mph at which point the tires may be totally up on the water. In a severe rainstorm, for example, the tires lose all contact with the road at 55 mph.

# 18: Unmarked crosswalks are crosswalks not marked by painted lines. They exist:

In school zones At intersections Everywhere a pedestrian crosses the street

There is basically a crosswalk at every intersection, even if it is not marked by painted lines.

At or near railroad crossings At all interstate exits At public rest areas

The Blue Emergency Notification System (ENS) sign is at every highway-rail grade crossing, and provides the public with a 24/7/365 telephone number to call to report problems or emergencies at these railroad locations. ENS signs may be located either on the black and white cross buck or near the actual crossing.

# 23: When parking parallel to a curb on a two-way roadway you must park within:

24 inches from the curb Six inches from the curb 12 inches from the curb

# 24: All the following practices are dangerous while driving. Which is also specifically illegal in Kansas?

Eating and drinking while driving Removing a coat or jacket while driving Texting while driving

Kansas passed a law which makes it illegal to text message when driving. This means using a wireless communications device to write, send, or read a written communication.

There are some exceptions. As an example, the law does not apply to a person who receives an emergency, traffic or weather alert message.

# 25: When approaching a sharp curve, you should:

Keep your current speed Brake hard after entering the curve. Slow down before entering the curve

Always reduce speed prior to entering the curve to a safe speed (a speed that allows you to apply slight and constant acceleration through the curve). Reduce speed more when traction is poor, when following other vehicles or when you cannot see the end of the curve. Hard braking after the entry to a curve could cause the vehicle tires to lose traction.
