Class 5 Mock Test
#1. During heavy wind why you should keep extra space while passing motorcyclist?
#2. Which of the following statements about driving in a roundabout are true?
Know where you want to go before you enter a roundabout, and enter the correct lane. Lane use signs or road markings will show you which lane you need to use. If you want to turn left, use the left lane. If you want to turn right, use the right lane. If you want to go straight, you may use either the left or right lane
#3. Why you should be more careful about pedestrian and cyclist at night time?
#4. How often should you perform an observation cycle?
Good observation involves looking ahead, beside and behind. Always keep your eyes moving while you’re driving. Look well ahead. Scan from one side of the road to the other, checking for potential hazards. Finally, glance in your rear‑ and side‑view mirrors to keep track of what is happening behind you. Then start all over again. You should complete the whole cycle every five to eight seconds.
#5. On wet roads, you should be prepared to deal with
Rain can cause loss of traction and hydroplaning. Rain makes the road surface slippery, especially during the beginning of a rainfall. The rainwater mixes with the oil on the road to create a slippery, oily film that persists until more rain washes it away. Hydroplaning occurs when the tires lose contact with the road surface and float on a film of water, causing the driver to lose control of steering and braking. Slow down and use caution when driving on any low‑traction surface, and avoid driving altogether in extremely bad weather. You should also leave more following distance and allow at least twice the usual braking distance.
#6. In British Columbia, when can you make a right turn at a red light?
A red light means that you must come to a complete stop. After you have stopped and made sure the intersection is clear of all vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians, you may turn right unless signs indicate otherwise. Note: When turning right, some drivers fail to come to a complete stop at a red light or stop sign. Instead, they crawl past it at less than 8 km/h. This is commonly known as a “rolling stop” – but it’s illegal, and you can be cited for doing it.
#7. A person with whom you are driving, best way to tell him that he is driving too fast is?
#8. Why should you do a shoulder check when you're going to change lanes?
Even when your mirrors are properly adjusted, there are still areas that you can’t see in your mirrors. These are called blind spots. The largest, most dangerous blind spots are to the sides of your vehicle. Whenever you’re going to turn or change lanes, check your mirrors and also do a shoulder check to make sure that the blind spot on that side is clear. (Look at least 45 degrees over your shoulder.) Your vehicle also has smaller blind spots at the front and at the rear.
#9. Where there is no posted, speed limit outside cities and towns(Built up Area) should be?
#10. Which thing can reduce the effect of alcohol?
#11. If you arrive at the scene of a crash, how can you render assistance?
If other drivers have been involved in a crash, they may need assistance. You may be able to help. First, make sure your vehicle is parked away from the crash, where it won’t obstruct traffic or emergency vehicles. Use warning devices such as reflective triangles to alert other drivers that there has been a crash. Call for emergency services if necessary and stay with injured people until help arrives. However, don’t move injured people unless there is danger of fire or explosion; moving them might make their injuries worse.
#12. As a driver when you should look through rear view mirror?
#13. Vehicles approaching a roundabout must
A roundabout is a circular intersection in which traffic circulates counterclockwise around a central island. Approaching vehicles must yield to the traffic in the circle. Always enter to the right of the central island.
#14. U-turn is not permitted?
#15. Car drivers often complaint that it is difficult for them to judge the exact speed of motorcyclists?
#16. Heavy occupancy vehicle(H.O.V ) lane can be used by?
#17. When parallel parking in British Columbia, you must be within _______ of the curb.
When parallel parking in British Columbia, you must park parallel to and within 30 centimeters of the curb.
#18. You are approaching a traffic light that suddenly changes from green to yellow. You should
When a traffic light changes to yellow, it is about to turn red next. You should stop if you can do so safely. (Never speed up to try to “beat the light” before it turns red.) But don’t stop suddenly and risk skidding or a rear-end collision by the vehicle behind you. If you cannot stop safely, proceed with caution into the intersection.
#19. If you are driving a vehicle without antilock brakes (ABS) and you must stop suddenly in an emergency, you should _________ and steer in the direction you want to go.
For an emergency stop without ABS, press down hard on the brake pedal, but not hard enough to lock the wheels. If you lock the wheels, you may lose control of the steering and the car may skid. If you start to skid, quickly release the brakes and press hard again to regain control. Look and steer in the direction you want to go.
#20. How far you should park away from curve when doing parallel parking?
#21. If you see a pedestrian at the side of the road who is about to jaywalk, you should
You must always be prepared to stop if you see a pedestrian who is about to step out in front of you. But don’t encourage jaywalking (crossing between intersections) by stopping and inviting the pedestrian to cross. The car behind you may not be expecting you to stop and may crash into you. Drivers in the other lanes may not see the pedestrian crossing in front of your vehicle and may hit the person. Under Section 180 of the Motor Vehicle Act, a jaywalker does NOT have the legal right-of-way. However, under Section 181, you must always take care to avoid colliding with any pedestrian
#22. what percentage of deaths occurs in B.C. due to driving after drinking?
#23. In British Columbia, it is illegal to park
Park where it’s safe and legal. Signs, curb markings and common sense will tell you if you are allowed to park. You should park where you are not blocking traffic and where others can clearly see your vehicle. If you park where you shouldn’t, you may be fined or your vehicle may be towed. Among other places, it is illegal to park on a sidewalk or boulevard, in a bicycle lane, on a bridge or in a highway tunnel.
#24. Why is it dangerous to tailgate the vehicle in front of you?
Tailgating (following too closely behind the vehicle in front) is a major cause of crashes. If you tailgate, the vehicle in front of you can block your view of hazards ahead. Worse, if that vehicle stops suddenly, you won’t have enough space to slow down and stop safely, and you may rear-end the vehicle. If you rear‑end the other driver, you will be held responsible for the crash
#25. If a tire blows out while you are driving, what should you do?
To help stay safe when a tire blows out, keep a firm grip on the steering wheel. Don’t brake; sudden braking could cause loss of steering control. Instead, ease off the accelerator and decelerate slowly. You can start to brake gently once the vehicle has slowed down. Steer in the direction you want to go. Then signal or turn on the hazard lights, and pull off the road as soon as it’s safe.
#26. When you are approaching a stop sign, you must
A thick solid white line across a lane approaching an intersection is a stop line. If you must stop for a red light or stop sign, you must stop before the stop line if there is one
#27. When 4 cars has arrived at intersection at same time which one has right of way?
#28. The use of alcohol or drugs can affect the driver by impairing
Drugs and medications can impair your driving abilities. If you are taking medications or drugs, you need to know whether they can affect your ability to drive safely. With some drugs, concentration and coordination are reduced, reaction time is slowed and peripheral vision is affected. Drugs affect different people differently. If there is any doubt about safety, leave the driving to someone else.
