Question 1

When braking on loose surfaces like ice or gravel in a vehicle without antilock brakes, you should lightly tap the brakes at what intervals to prevent skidding?

Accepted Answer

On slippery or loose surfaces like ice or gravel, braking hard without an antilock braking system (ABS) can lock your wheels and cause a skid. To maintain control and traction, you should tap your brakes lightly at one-second intervals.

Question 2

Which of these actions is NOT an effective way to prevent distracted driving?

Accepted Answer

The official manual identifies eating and drinking as major forms of distracted driving. While pre-adjusting your mirrors and radio helps you focus, preparing to drink coffee while driving still encourages a dangerous distraction that takes your hands off the wheel.
