Connecticut DMV permit practice test 5

A: If part of Lincoln's head is covered by the tread, you have a safe amount of tread. Put Lincoln's head into a groove; if any part of his head is covered by the tread, you have a safe amount of tread. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Exterior Equipment: Tires, page 13.

C: Pull over to the right edge of the road and stop. Yield to an emergency vehicle using its siren or lights: move as far right as you can, stop, and stay stopped until it goes by. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Emergency Vehicles, page 18.

D: No; the law only says who must yield. Right-of-way rules only tell drivers when they must yield; no one is ever guaranteed the right-of-way, and you must still try to avoid any crash. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Right-of-Way, page 38.

A: Parks and recreation areas. Brown is used for parks and recreation signs. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Colors, page 49.

B: Pedestrians are in the crosswalk; you must stop. A solid red HAWK signal means pedestrians are in the crosswalk and motorists must stop. Connecticut Driver's Manual: High-Intensity Activated CrossWalK (HAWK) Signals, page 47.

D: To tell if you are driving too fast for how far ahead you can see. Pick a fixed object as far ahead as you can see and count four seconds; if you reach it before finishing, you are driving too fast for your sight distance. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Slow Moving Vehicles, page 20.

B: When you can see both headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror. When you can see both headlights of the vehicle you passed in your rearview mirror, it is safe to return to the driving lane. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Passing: Return to your lane, page 25.

D: Right signal. Use your right turn signal when you are about to reach your exit, and yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk on the exit leg. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Roundabouts, page 39.

C: A driver there may be planning to move into the same lane. Someone in the far lane may be planning to move into the same lane you want to enter. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Changing Lanes, page 25.

A: Check traffic, including bicyclists, and close the door as soon as you can. Check traffic before you open the door, get out on the curb side if you can, and shut the door as soon as possible. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Parking, page 39.

A: Low beams. Use low beams in fog or heavy rain or snow; high beams reflect back and cause glare. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Lights, page 40.

B: Press as hard as you can and keep pressing. With ABS, press the pedal as hard as you can and keep pressing; you may feel it push back but do not let up. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Stopping Quickly, page 42.

D: 120 days. Applicants who complete driver education through a commercial driving school or secondary school must wait 120 days after the permit is issued before the road test. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Commercial Driving School or Secondary School Training, page 8.

B: Only one drink. People under 21 could be considered impaired after only one drink of alcohol. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Alcohol and You, page 35.

B: Once every month or before a long trip. Check your tires once every month, or before a long road trip, for wear and damage. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Exterior Equipment: Tires, page 13.

C: Drive through the intersection, then pull over to the right and stop. If you are in an intersection, drive through it before pulling over to the right and stopping. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Right-of-Way, page 39.

A: Bicyclists and pedestrians on the path. Where a bike path meets the road, drivers must let bicyclists and pedestrians on the path go first. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Right-of-Way, page 38.

B: Services such as gas, rest areas and hospitals. Blue is used for guide signs that tell you about services along the roadway. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Colors, page 49.

C: Stop, then proceed once pedestrians have cleared the crosswalk. Flashing red at a HAWK works like a stop sign: stop, then go once the crosswalk is clear of pedestrians. Connecticut Driver's Manual: High-Intensity Activated CrossWalK (HAWK) Signals, page 47.

D: About 50 mph. High beams let you see about 400 feet; drive at a speed that lets you stop within that distance, about 50 mph. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Lights: Darkness, page 40.

D: Never within one-third of a mile of it. Treat a hill or curve like an oncoming vehicle: do not start to pass if you are within one-third of a mile of it. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Visibility: Hills and Curves, page 26.

D: No, do not stop within the roundabout to let others enter. Do not stop within the roundabout to allow traffic to enter from another leg. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Roundabouts, page 39.

B: Move over a lane to make room. Make room for entering vehicles; if there is no one next to you, move over a lane. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Space to the Side, page 24.

C: Signal, pull next to the space, and let following vehicles pass before you park. Signal, pull up beside the space, and let the traffic behind you go by before you back in. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Space Behind: Parallel Parking, page 24.

D: Whenever your windshield wipers are on. Connecticut law ties headlights to wipers: whenever the wipers are running, your headlights must be on too. Connecticut Driver's Manual: Lights: Use Headlights, page 40.
