Question 33

2. expl

Answer 33

When stopped in traffic, a car length of space is required from the vehicle ahead. This will allow enough space to pull your car around the vehicle ahead if it should stall and will give you an instant cushion if it should make a turn.

Question 37

6. expl

Answer 37

Look and see whether or not cars at the curb are occupied. This is the only time they are a threat. If they are occupied the driver is probably about to exit from the car or pull out from the curb.

Question 38

7. expl

Answer 38

The point of decision is an imaginary line that you set up between your vehicle and the cross-walk when you are approaching and intersection with a stale green light. Since you are not sure of the light, you must be sure of the point behind which you will stop if the light should start to change. This helps you get the big picture.

Question 39

8. expl

Answer 39

When you must depend on anyone along the edge of your driving path to stay put until you are past the danger point, it is imperative that you get their attention. the horn and lights are your communication tools when you do not have eye contact. proper use of the horn to express a friendly message seems in many instances to be a lost art. only when you have eye contact can you expect the other person to act in a reasonably predictable manner to avoid a dangerous situation.
