Explanation:

1. A squeaking noise when braking is a sign of brake - related issues, so D is correct. A strong smell of gasoline is related to fuel system, engine stalling at stoplights is engine - related, and wind affecting car control is not brake - related.
2. When driving on a city street, both traffic from side streets and animals/children darting between parked cars are hazards to watch out for, so C is correct.
3. Every licensed motor vehicle must have a horn, and only law enforcement and emergency vehicles may have sirens, so C is correct.
4. When a car starts to skid, you should turn the steering wheel in the direction the rear - end is skidding, not apply the brake as it can worsen the skid, so B is correct.
5. A driver involved in an accident should make an immediate report to the nearest law enforcement agency and notify his insurance company, so C is correct.
6. Every motor vehicle in North Carolina must be equipped with a muffler, so A is correct.
7. When driving in heavy traffic, you should watch out for drivers who make quick stops, and you should yield to pedestrians not only at marked crosswalks but also in other situations, so A is correct.
