• A.Shout a warning to the rider.
• B.Use your horn to alert the rider.
• C.Increase your speed to pass the horse quickly.
• D.Reduce your speed.✓

Why: When approaching a horse on a public highway, you must reduce your speed or stop if necessary. This is required to avoid striking, endangering, or frightening the animal.

• A.Depending on driving conditions, you can be cited for driving at the maximum speed limit.
• B.If several vehicles are following you, you should pull over to let them pass as soon as it is safe to do so.
• C.If you can't keep up with the lawful flow of traffic, you should find another route.
• D.All of the above are true.✓

Why: In Connecticut, speed limits are for ideal conditions; you must slow down for rain, fog, or heavy traffic. Additionally, driving too slowly can be dangerous and illegal if it obstructs the flow of traffic.
