    Study Notes

    Tire Blowout Response

    • A blowout causes the car to pull towards the direction of the blowout.
    • Emergency flashers should be turned on to alert other drivers.

    Lane Markings

    • A large diamond marking indicates a reserved lane for special traffic, only emergency vehicles can use it, and parking is not allowed.

    Audio Permit Test

    • An audio permit test can be requested if reading difficulties are proven, but a sign meaning test in English must be passed.

    YIELD Sign Meaning

    • The YIELD sign requires giving the right-of-way to other traffic and checking both directions cautiously before proceeding.

    Field of Vision

    • Your Field of Vision encompasses both central and peripheral vision, not just what is directly ahead.

    Alcohol Transportation for Minors

    • Individuals under 21 can only transport alcohol in the trunk as part of employment duties or if the container is unopened.

    Car Audio Devices

    • Use of stereo headphones while driving is illegal; keep the volume low enough to hear outside sounds and maintain a window partially open.

    Driver License Status

    • A driver's license is a privilege, not an absolute right, granted to individuals by the state.

    White Line Indications

    • A white line on the right indicates the edge of the roadway which should not be crossed.

    Centrifugal Force

    • Centrifugal force does not actually exist; its effects can be misinterpreted in the context of driving dynamics.

    Driving Regulations for Minors

    • Minors can obtain a driver's license starting at 15 1/2 but must have a guardian's signature on the application due to financial responsibility.

    Parking Regulations

    • When parking next to a curb, tires must be within 18 inches from the curb.

    Work Zone Collisions

    • The leading cause of collisions in work zones is tailgating.

    Minimum Tire Tread Depth

    Collision Causes

    • Failure to yield is among the top five causes of vehicular collisions.

    Historic Automobile Manufacturers

    • By the 1920s, General Motors was the largest automobile manufacturer in the world.

    Use of Turn Signals

    • Turn signals must be used when changing lanes, turning into a driveway, or parking at the curb.

    Right Turn on Red

    • A right turn on red is permissible after stopping and yielding at a red arrow.

    Disc Brake Function

    • Disc brakes work by pressing inward on a disc to stop its rotation, not by affecting a drum.

    Center Lane Usage

    • Details regarding the center lane with a solid marking were incomplete but generally involve specific regulations on lane usage.
