A.) Name the law that applies to a driver driving on the far right of the photos.
ANSWER: This would be known as the "law of motion". Road traffic law applies to the driver in the photo. How does the Relocation Act work? Under this law, drivers must leave the lane next to emergency vehicles stopped by the police. Driving in the rightmost lane requires drivers to cross a lane when entering the road. In the United States, drivers are required to leave a lane for stopped emergency vehicles. In the United States, drivers are required to provide lane space for stopped emergency vehicles.
B.) Explain the options for legally driving emergency vehicles parked on the right-hand shoulder.
ANSWER: The ways in which emergency vehicles can legitimately drive in the right-hand lane are to slow down. Legal driving options include emergency situations that require a slower speed that is slower than the limit and you must safely switch lanes.
A.) Describe at least two risky driving behaviors that you observe in this figure.
ANSWER: The two risky driving behaviors seen in the figure are: 1. The gray car is crossing the lanes and is in front of the truck. This is not safe as it may cause a collision. The gray car should change lanes when it's a little further away from the truck. If the gray car is too slow, accidents may happen, especially since the truck has a lot of weight at the back, so it takes longer for the truck to come to a complete stop.
2. All cars drive in the right lane. This is very unsafe because they ride very close together. If suddenly one of those cars in line has to stop, all following cars will hit the one that stopped because of its unauthorized use. When you pass another car that close, you don't have time to react.
B.) Choose a vehicle and explain what you would do differently.
ANSWER: 1. If I were the gray car, I would change lanes if I was a little further away from the truck.
2. If I were the black car behind me in the right lane, just in case I would have a 4 second gap between me and the driver in front of me.
A.) What safety measures must be observed when changing lanes?
ANSWER: The safety measures to follow when changing lanes is that you should check everything around you. You should look in your rearview mirror to see if there is someone behind you, you should also check your blind spots as there could be a car there. You also have to use your blinker so the other cars around you know what you are about to do.
B.) What safety measures must be observed when overtaking?
ANSWER: The safety measures when overtaking are very similar to those when changing lanes. You should check for hazards and blind spots before overtaking the car. You have to move a bit to see if cars are coming and if not you have to change lanes and increase your speed by 10-15mph to be in front of the car.
A.) Imagine that the white car in the left lane is driving slower than the traffic around it. To what extent is this a violation of the national traffic law?
ANSWER: If the white car in the left lane is driving slower than the surrounding traffic, it is against the national traffic regulations, because the left lane is the fastest lane, so if the white car wants to drive slower than the surrounding traffic, he has to go to the avoid the right lane as this is the slower lane.
B.) If a driver drives slower than the traffic around him, how does this affect the behavior of other drivers on the road?
ANSWER: If a driver drives slower than the traffic around him, it will affect the behavior of other drivers on the road because it is likely to cause a lot of dangers, like traffic jams, unauthorized use because other cars want to go faster, right? it is right to do. It can also cause many collisions because the cars behind may want to overtake the slow car.

ANSWER: As the driver of the red van, I have the option to navigate this roundabout by entering the roundabout as there is a safe distance between me and the other cars, or I can wait for the car to pass if that is what you want to do. . because the other car can also choose to exit the roundabout and then enter the roundabout.
A.) Identify the three common dangers young drivers face shown above.
ANSWER:The three most common risks for young drivers shown in the picture are
1.) Look at a phone
This photo contains too many distractions that could easily cause a car crash.
distractions while driving. In the photo, the co-pilot is trying to show the driver something on his phone and this causes him to lose focus and even the direction of the road, and it is obvious in the photo that this can cause a car accident by the driver being distracted and not concentrating on the carretera.
2.) Holding one hand on the wheel and holding a soda in the other, ignoring the road.
Inexperience, although this driver may have your license he is still new on the road.
Eat or drink while driving. The driver holds a drink in his hand while driving. It can be soda or alcohol, but in any case it decreases concentration, coordination and slows down reaction time. Safe driving requires the ability to concentrate, make good judgments and react quickly to situations. However, drinking impairs these skills and puts the driver and others at risk.
3.) Passengers do not sit upright and are a nuisance
Finally, there are other teenage passengers who distract the driver.
All passengers are teenagers. The teenage passenger tries to pet the driver, and this actively encourages the driver to take risks and focus on them rather than the steering wheel and the road.
B.) What safe skills can be used to reduce each of these risks?
ANSWER:Safe skills that can be used to reduce these skills include:
1.) Keep both hands on the steering wheel and keep your eyes on the road
The driver must first think safely, be aware of his surroundings, pay attention to the road, avoid distractions and not depend on other drivers. Most accidents result from the use of mobile phones while driving. It decreases the effectiveness of your peripheral vision.
2.) Passengers seated in their seats with properly fastened seat belts
I think limiting distractions as much as possible, making sure your seat belt is on, and using a defensive driving style will help reduce those risks, I think. Passengers sitting in the back or back seat should refrain from eating and drinking and allow the driver to always focus on the road.

List at least three energy efficient driving techniques you can use to reduce fuel consumption and extend the life of your vehicle.
ANSWER: Three energy saving driving techniques to increase fuel economy are to put your foot on the accelerator; Avoid unnecessary idling, ie if you are not moving for more than a minute, switch off the engine. Do not accelerate and always drive at or below the speed limit:
Not only is speeding unsafe and illegal, it wastes fuel and costs money: drag increases dramatically with speed, so the faster you go, the faster you burn fuel.
Additionally, one of the ways to extend the useful life of your vehicle is to keep up to date with maintenance, including oil changes; Change the engine air filter when it is dirty, as a clogged air filter makes the engine work harder to get the air it needs. And check your tire pressure regularly and make sure it meets the manufacturer's recommendation - under-inflated tires stretch and flex more than they should, resulting in less power being transferred to the road.

Insurance is the most expensive as insurance costs continue to rise each year and if you are involved in a car accident that was your fault or if you are stopped and given a speeding ticket, the cost of your insurance will skyrocket. Businesses in almost every industry, including insurance, have seen their overall costs increase.

Compared to the others, this seems to be the most expensive as it is progressive and keeps increasing.
