2. What does a NARROW BRIDGE warning sign tell a driver?
Show answer
Answer A: The bridge is tighter than the road leading up to it
A narrow bridge still carries both directions, but with much less clearance than the approaches, so drivers should slow and hold their lane position carefully.

8. What most often leads to an engine seizure on a motorcycle?
Show answer
Answer A: Loss of engine oil or coolant, so the moving parts overheat and grip

12. You want to turn right from a lane marked for through traffic and right turns, and the driver behind you wants to go straight. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer C: Signal, stay in the lane and make the turn when it is safe
A shared lane is the correct place to turn right from, so signal early and turn from the lane; the driver behind must wait or use another lane.
-
13. Why should gloves and jacket sleeves overlap?
Show answer
Answer A: So no gap of bare skin is left at the wrist in a slide or the cold
The wrist is easy to leave exposed, and a gap there lets in cold air and takes the full force of a slide, so gauntlets or elastic cuffs should close the gap.
-
14. You are crossing a long, high bridge in a strong crosswind. Where should you expect the wind to change most suddenly?
Show answer
Answer A: At the ends of the bridge and where towers or trucks briefly block the wind
Wind is gustiest where something shelters you and then stops, such as bridge abutments, towers and large vehicles, so be ready for a push as you move in and out of the shelter.
-
15. Two drivers each have three drinks, one over three hours and one in half an hour. What is the difference?
Show answer
Answer C: The fast drinker reaches a higher peak level
The liver removes alcohol at a steady rate, so drinking faster than the body can clear it pushes the blood alcohol level much higher.
-
16. You are about to leave a roundabout when a pedestrian steps into the crosswalk on your exit. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer B: Yield to the pedestrian and wait for the crosswalk to clear
Roundabout crosswalks sit on the entries and exits, and drivers must yield to pedestrians using them.
-
17. Why is passing on a curve prohibited even when the traffic seems light?
Show answer
Answer C: You cannot see far enough around it to know the lane is clear
A pass is only as safe as the distance you can see, and a curve hides the very lane the maneuver uses.
-
18. Does a conviction under Oklahoma's texting-while-driving statute add points to the driver's record?
