Safe driving tips to help pass your road test:

STEERING Steer smoothly whether you are driving straight ahead, turning or backing up.

ACCELERATION Accelerate smoothly and moderately. Don't race the engine or cause it to stall.

BRAKING Bring the vehicle to a stop gently. Start braking well before your stopping position to avoid "jerky" stops. Make sure you stop your vehicle in the proper position of the lane.

CLUTCH/GEAR Always be sure your vehicle is in the correct gear. With either an automatic or a manual transmission, shift into the proper gear at the right time without "grinding" the gears.

SPEED Obey the posted speed limit, of course, but also adjust your speed properly due to weather, road, visibility and traffic conditions.

FOLLOWING DISTANCE Keep an adequate space "cushion" between your vehicle and those you are following. Use the "two second rule" described in the Driver's Manual. Be sure to increase your following distance in poor weather or visibility.

TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES Know the meanings of signs, signals and pavement markings, and obey them consistently.

STOPPING POSITION If a stop is required, stop your vehicle before it reaches an intersecting street. If stop lines or crosswalks are present, stop before crossing them. If your view is blocked after stopping behind the crosswalk, move up until you can clearly see your way, then stop again if necessary.

LANE SELECTION AND POSITION Keep your vehicle in the proper traffic lane, especially when preparing to make turns. Don't allow room for another vehicle to pass you on the side that you are turning toward.

COMMUNICATION Let other drivers and pedestrians know which way you want to go. Use your directional signals or horn consistently and at the proper times.

OBSERVATION Look for and identify potential problems or hazards in the traffic around you - not just straight ahead, but behind you and on either side. Check your mirrors frequently, but be sure to look over your shoulder behind you when changing lanes or backing up.

ANTICIPATE & REACT TO OTHERS Anticipate possible driving errors by others and be ready to react safely to make up for their mistakes.

when i took my test they didn't really ask anything. they inspected the car a little bet to see if it was worthy of taking the test then just directed me around. that's about it. she sat there with her clipboard and told me what to do and where to go. turn her, turn here switch lanes pull in here that's about it

Answer 4

Answer 5

They ask what do you do at a red light? What do you do at a green light?

Answer 6

Answer 7

From my experience, I wasn't asked any questions, they simply let me drive and told me to turn here or there.  And that was it.  I was the one who was asking all the questions before I started driving the car.  Also before you drive they make you put on your windshield wipers, headlights, brakelights, horn, emergency brake, and blinkers.  As for when you're driving, they won't really talk to you much other than giving directions, because they are observing how you follow the rules of the road, and will check things off as you do them.  Good luck on your test!

Answer 8

My instructor never really asked much during the driving test but the written test is by computer and it's easy. He might ask a simple question like who has the right of way and of course it would be a pedestrian. Just stay calm and you will do fine.

Answer 9

have you had anything to drink this morning?

Answer 10

In Washington you have to know the hand signs for the turns and stops, then they tell you to drive places and do all the parking and backing up and whatnot. They don't ask you about controls directly, but they are watching you to make sure you know what you're doing.

Answer 11

they mostly just commanded me to do things, but one question they might ask is:

where you do turn your wheels when parking up/down on a hill?

answers: uphill - left, downhill - right

and know your hand signals for stopping, & turning left & right :)

Answer 12

I find it's very common that male driving instructors will ask if you own a halter top or any form fitting Patton leather suits in addition to whatever attire you may show up to the lesson for.

Answer 13

What is the capital of North Carolina?

Answer 14

Here in VA you have to take a test (on a computer at the DMV) to identify road signs, general rules, etc in order to get your permit, in addition to having successfully completed drivers ed in school.

The actual instructor for road and range doesn't really ask you anything, but rather observes you as you drive.  They may give you directions to a specific location, but it's not quiz time or anything.

Answer 15

what are you doing tonight?

Answer 16

nothing. I wasn't asked anything. I followed her instructions... backed up.. drove... etc.

This is why you have 2 parts ... the written test part.... then the actual driving

Answer 17

doesn't matter as long as your instructor is not a *********. i got lucky with mine and she was really nice and she passed me from my 1st try. Plus it was my 18th birthday the next day. i actually parralleled parked perfectly. till this day i never parallel parked as perfect as i did on my test. But if you get an instructed who's in a hurry or who's moody, grouchy, then no matter how much you think you did well, they'll have an excuse to fail you.

Answer 18
