every time I am behind the wheel, I pledge to ✔✔keep my eyes on the road, hands on the wheel,
and mind on the task of driving
The three most basic traffic laws require drivers to: ✔✔obey traffic control devices (lights and
signals); obey the traffic directions of a law enforcement officer or firefighter, even if it goes
against what a traffic control device tells you to do; never drive on a roadway that has been
closed for construction, for a special event, or for any other official reason
right-of-way is a phrase used to describe ✔✔who has the lawful authority to enter a roadway,
change lanes within a roadway, make a turn from a roadway, travel through an intersection, or
make any other traffic related movement
there may be instances in which you as a driver or pedestrian have the legal right-of-way over
someone else, even though the other person does not realize it and is not obeying the rules of the
road. In those instances, ✔✔the right-of-way should be yielded in order to prevent a crash
,when traveling on a roadway that intersects with another roadway, if you are faced with a stop
sign, but other traffic is not, you may ✔✔proceed only after stopping and yielding the right-of-
way to any other vehicle or pedestrian either in the intersection, or so close to the intersection as
to make it dangerous to travel through the intersection
at intersections where there are no stop signs, yield signs or other traffic signals, if two vehicles
come to the intersection at the same time ✔✔the driver of the vehicle on the left must yield to
the driver of the vehicle on the right
At a four-way intersection where all drivers are faced with stop signs, all drivers must ✔✔yield
to pedestrians; otherwise the vehicles should proceed through the intersection in a "first to arrive,
first to proceed order." If two vehicles reach the intersection at approximately the same time,
yield to any vehicles on your right
when making a left turn at an intersection, or into an alley or driveway ✔✔yield the right of-way
to all traffic coming from the opposite direction
when approaching a yield sign ✔✔slow down to a safe speed and be prepared to stop; if
necessary, stop and only proceed when it is safe to do so
,when the roadway you are traveling on is merging into other traffic without stopping ✔✔adjust
your speed and vehicle position to allow you to merge into the new lane safely
if traffic from another roadway is merging into the roadway you are traveling on ✔✔safely
change lanes away from the merging traffic if possible; if it is not possible, adjust your speed and
vehicle position to safely allow the traffic to merge
at intersections with traffic control lights, wait until ✔✔the intersection is clear of traffic or
approaching traffic before entering; do not proceed "just because" you have the green light
if you are about to enter or cross a highway from an alley, private road or highway ✔✔you must
stop and yield the right-of-way to all other pedestrians and vehicles already traveling on the
roadway or sidewalk you are entering or crossing
if emergency vehicles are using their emergency lights (blue or red) and sirens, ✔✔safely
maneuver your vehicle out of their way; you should slow your vehicle and move over to the
shoulder of the road, or if that is not possible, as far to the right of the roadway or lane as you
can, and stop; always use caution to ensure that you do not endanger other motorists, bicyclists,
or pedestrians while doing so; do not position your vehicle so that it blocks an intersection or
otherwise prevents the emergency vehicle from making a necessary turn
, T or F: Yield to all highway maintenance vehicles and workers in a construction zone ✔✔True
it is permissible to make a right turn on red at a traffic control light unless ✔✔a sign at the
intersection prohibits doing so
if it is permissible to make a right turn on red, you may do so only ✔✔after making a complete
stop, yielding to all traffic and pedestrians, and making the determination that you can safely
complete the turn
it is permissible to make a "left turn on red" from the left lane of a one-way street onto a one-way
street on which the traffic moves toward the driver's left ✔✔unless a sign posted at that
intersection prohibits doing so; and only after making a complete stop, yielding to all traffic and
stopping for pedestrians, and making the determination that you can safely complete the turn
when a school bus is preparing to stop to load or unload children, the driver of the bus ✔✔will
activate flashing yellow lights
