Use high beams outside cities and when no other vehicles are near. Dim your high beams for oncoming traffic. If you are following a car, dim your lights when you are within 300 feet of the vehicle ahead of you. In fog, rain or snow, use your low beams to avoid glare.

Remember, trucks have longer stopping and accelerating distances, weigh more and are not as maneuverable as cars.

# 6: The small profile of a motorcycle:

Determining the speed of an oncoming motorcycle is not easy. The small silhouette and lack of accurate reference scale can also lead to misjudging the actual distance between the car and the motorcycle. Whether it is a day or night, when you spot a motorcycle, make sure you have accurately judged its speed and distance. Give the scene a second look-and your decision a second thought.

# 12: When making a left turn at an intersection, you should:

You should not keep close to the right edge pavement marking. Move into the left lane or keep close to the center line. Turn on the left turn signal at least two seconds before reaching the point where you wish to turn. Look to the right and to the left before starting to make your turn. This question asked what you should not do.

# 13: When you overtake a bicyclist, the Utah law requires that you pass:

Special care must be used near bicyclists because any collision with them may result in serious injury. This means that automobile drivers must leave safe passing room and must not turn so close to a bicyclist that the bicyclist is in danger of being hit. Utah law requires a minimum three feet of distance from any bicyclist or vulnerable user of the highway.

# 17: How can you check your blind spots while driving?

Turn your head briefly. Mirrors should be adjusted before you start driving and will always have blind spots. Do not take your eyes off of the road ahead of you for more than an instant. The vehicle ahead of you could stop suddenly while you are checking over your shoulder.

# 18: Who must yield at a freeway entrance ramp?

Vehicles on the freeway must be given the right-of-way. Merging vehicles must yield. Do not force yourself into traffic. Wait until it is safe to enter the traffic flow on the highway.

# 19: When brakes fail and you cannot get them to work, you should:

Shift to a lower gear to help slow down the car. Try to slow down and stop by using your parking brake. If you still cannot stop and are going downhill, try to drive into heavy bushes, snow, or a sandbank.

# 20: Which sign tells you that the road is slippery when wet?

Slippery when wet.

This section of highway is more slippery than other roads when wet. Reduce your speed.

# 21: When a school bus with flashing red lights is stopped on the other side of a four-lane roadway with a median separation, you should:

If you are traveling on a divided highway having four or more lanes with a median separating the traffic, it is only necessary for the vehicles traveling in both lanes behind the school bus to stop, and not the traffic traveling in the opposite direction.

If you approach an intersection at which the traffic lights are not working, you must first come to a complete stop before entering the intersection and yield the right-of-way to any vehicle on the right unless otherwise directed by a peace officer. Not working means that the traffic lights do not light up.
