If the steered wheels start slipping, …
× control by steering is not possible.
What should you do if your vehicle starts skidding because of braking?
× Decrease the brake force and turn the steering wheel in the proper direction.
Your car is not equipped with electronic stability program (ESP). What steering should you perform when the rear wheels of the vehicle skid and the vehicle starts to spin around?
× You should steer in the opposite direction (in the direction of the skidding of the rear wheels)
The adhesion force between the wheel and the road surface…
× is proportional to the force pushing the wheels to the road surface.
Is driving resistance affected by the speed of the vehicle?
× Yes. The higher the speed, the higher the driving resistance, due to the increased air resistance.
What consequences should you expect if the air filter of the engine becomes clogged?
×
The fuel consumption of the vehicle will increase.
Which of the following affects the extent of the fuel consumption of the vehicle?
× The technical condition of the vehicle, the driving style, and the road conditions.
How does the mass of the load affect the fuel consumption of the transporting vehicle?
× Increasing the mass of the load will raise fuel consumption
How does the road quality affect the fuel consumption of the vehicle?
× Driving on soft and uneven ground will increase the fuel consumption of the vehicle.
How does the air resistance affect the fuel consumption of the vehicle?
× The increased air resistance will increase the fuel consumption of the vehicle.
What could significantly increase the air resistance of the vehicle?
× The roof rack or objects transported on it, if the windows are down, or the open sunroof.
In general, how can you achieve the most favourable fuel consumption?
× By accelerating the vehicle gently, maintaining a steady travelling speed (avoiding unnecessary acceleration and braking) and using the highest gear possible during cruising.
How does the rolling resistance of the wheels depend on the pressure of the tyres?
× As the pressure of the tyre decreases, the rolling resistance of the wheels increases.
How much fuel is consumed by vehicles equipped with state-of-the-art internal combustion engines in engine brake mode?
× They do not consume fuel in the engine brake mode.
What is the function of the tachometer of the vehicle?
× It provides assistance with operating in a range of revolution range that is ideal for consumption and power output.
What should the driver of the vehicle do if the police officer’s signals contradict other traffic instructions?
× The driver must obey the police officer’s signal.
When is the “Main road” sign not applicable?
.
× If traffic is controlled by traffic lights

On which side should you pass the shown passengers’ island if it separates the right carriageway from the left?
× Only on the right side, following trace “B”.
You are driving the car marked “A”. Which statement is true?
× You are travelling legitimately on trace “2”.
I
Is car “A” – at the location shown in the illustration – required to pull in between the vehicles waiting on the right side of the carriageway?
no
The vehicles shown in the illustration are waiting on the right side of the carriageway, 15–20 m from one another. Are you travelling legally while driving the vehicle marked with the steering wheel, if you are not pulling in between them when driving?
yes
There is a deceleration lane on the edge of the carriageway. Should you drive in this lane because of the obligation to keep right?
× No.
What does the obligation to keep right mean?
× If possible, you must drive pulled to the right side of the carriage way
Which gear is the best to use during cruising?
.
× The highest gear possible that suits the travelling speed, keeping the engine revolution in the middle range
How can the gears be changed with the depicted gear lever while the engine is running?
×
The gears can be selected after pressing the clutch pedal.
The illustration shows the lever of the manual transmission of a car. Can you switch from the fifth gear directly into the second?
× Yes, you can, you only need to make sure that the second gear matches the running speed of the vehicle (after switching back the engine should be running within the normal operating revolution range).
How do you operate the engine brake of your vehicle?
× If in a gear, without pressing the clutch pedal, taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Which gear is advisable to be selected in case of a manual transmission when travelling downhill?
× The same that you would use for uphill travel or one gear lower to ensure the sufficient engine braking force.
