The distance ahead that you search as you drive is your:
Targeting scope
Visual scope
Targeting lead
Visual lead
To effectively search the total traffic scene, drivers should monitor the area

All of the above
A driver should maintain a minimum following distance of:
One car length for every 10 mph

When you are driving, it is most difficult to control the space to your:
Rear
Front
Right side
Left side
When faced with dangers close to both sides of your pathway, you should give up:
More space to your right side because it is more difficult to see to that side
More space to your left side because of the possibility of oncoming traffic

Drivers pay close attention to other road users.
Vehicles cross one another’s paths of travel at various angles
Pedestrians typically cross roads and streets quickly.
Three main parts of freeway driving are:
Signaling, turning, stopping
Getting on, driving on, getting off
Distraction, fatigue, emotion
Shifting, backing, idling
While driving on a two lane roadway, you encounter a fire truck coming toward you with its siren and emergency lights on. You should:

Drivers of large trucks typically are unmotivated to reach their destinations safely.
Large trucks can turn left and right tightly using little space.
Which of these statements is true of roundabouts?
Roundabouts are less safe than intersections with traffic signals.
Roundabouts increase the capacity of busy roadways.
Roundabouts are more dangerous for pedestrians
