Rural Roads

When driving on a multilane roadway, you should make a left turn from

• the far right lane.

• the lane closest to the center line or median strip.

• the center lane.

• any available lane.

On rural roadways conditions

• never change.

• are always hazardous.

• can change abruptly.

• can change occasionally.

What is the basic speed rule?

• Drive at the speed limit regardless of weather conditions.

• Drive at or near the posted speed limit.

• Drive at the speed of other traffic.

• Do not drive faster than roadway or traffic conditions.

You need to identify hazards farther ahead when driving at faster speeds because you

• have more time to react.

• have more chances to identify hazards.

• have more space to control hazards.

• reach the hazard more quickly.

When driving on a multilane highway, you should usually position your vehicle in

• the right-hand lane.

• the left-hand lane.

• the lane closest to the center line.

• any available lane.

Rural roads are

• all paved.

• all gravel.

• constructed of different types of materials.

• usually in poor condition.

You should not pass if

• there are wide shoulders along the road surface.

• you are closer than 1,000 feet to a bridge.

• there are no signs that restrict passing.

• you cannot complete the pass before a no-passing zone begins.

The space you can move your vehicle into to avoid a collision with another vehicle is called

• an escape path.

• the path of travel.

• the point of no return.

• an acceleration lane.

One of the questions you should ask yourself as you are deciding to pass another vehicle is:

• Is passing here safe?

• Why is that driver going so slowly?

• Why would anyone pass here?

• Is passing here desired?

What most affects how far ahead you must look, vehicle control, and the distance you need to stop?

• weather conditions

• topology of the area

• speed

• size of your vehicle
