Question

1. the fastest way to reach maximum braking capability with or without abs is:

a. threshold braking.
b. pumping your brakes.
c. stabbing your brakes.
d. skidding.

1. a rear - facing infant child safety seat should be properly secured in:

a. the front seat.
b. the back seat.
c. any seat that has a safety belt.
d. the cargo area.

1. to reduce the forces of a collision with another vehicle, you should:

a. adjust your speed and try to hit the other vehicle head - on.
b. reduce your speed and try to hit the other vehicle in front of the front wheels or behind the rear wheels.
c. aim for the other vehicle’s passenger doors since they will give more than the fenders.
d. do nothing since nothing you can do will reduce the forces of a collision.

1. under - inflated tires will:

a. not have an effect on fuel economy.
b. improve fuel economy.
c. provide a harsher ride.
d. decrease fuel economy.

1. strong emotions can affect your:

a. physical coordination before your mental judgment.
b. mental judgment before your physical coordination.
c. ability to think, reason and make decisions.
d. physical skills before your mental skills.

Explanation:

• For question 40, threshold braking is the correct technique to reach maximum braking capability. Pumping brakes is related to non - ABS braking in a different way, stabbing brakes is not correct, and skidding is a loss of control situation.
• For question 41, rear - facing infant child safety seats should be in the back seat for safety reasons as the front seat can be dangerous due to airbags.
• For question 42, reducing speed and aiming for a less rigid part of the other vehicle (like in front of the front wheels or behind the rear wheels) can reduce collision forces. Head - on collisions are very dangerous, aiming for passenger doors is not the best option, and doing nothing is incorrect.
• For question 43, under - inflated tires increase rolling resistance, which decreases fuel economy.
• For question 44, strong emotions first affect the ability to think, reason and make decisions as they can cloud judgment.

Answer:

1. a. Threshold braking.
2. b. The back seat.
3. b. Reduce your speed and try to hit the other vehicle in front of the front wheels or behind the rear wheels.
4. d. Decrease fuel economy.
5. c. Ability to think, reason and make decisions.
