01/25

1.What is the primary reason you should reduce your speed when driving at night or in poor weather conditions?

A) To avoid speeding tickets

B) To prevent overdriving your headlights

C) To increase fuel efficiency

D) To ensure better tire performance

Correcte! Faux!

Réduire votre vitesse la nuit ou par mauvais temps vous permet de vous arrêter en toute sécurité sur la distance éclairée par vos phares. Cela vous donne plus de temps pour détecter les dangers inattendus qui peuvent apparaître avec une visibilité limitée et pour y réagir.

2.How should you handle glare from oncoming vehicles at night?

A) Look directly at the headlights to get used to the brightness

B) Use your high-beam headlights to counteract the glare

C) Look up and slightly to the right of the oncoming lights

D) Close your eyes and drive slowly

Correcte! Faux!

Looking slightly up and to the right of oncoming headlights helps reduce the blinding effect of glare and keeps your eyes focused on the road edge, improving visibility and maintaining safe control of your vehicle.

3.What should you do if you are driving in fog and visibility is rapidly decreasing?

A) Speed up to get out of the fog quickly

B) Pull off the road into a safe parking area and wait for the fog to lift

C) Use your high-beam headlights to see better

D) Continue driving as usual but stay alert

Correcte! Faux!

When fog severely reduces visibility, its safest to pull off the road into a secure location and wait for conditions to improve. Continuing to drive can be extremely dangerous if you cannot see vehicles, people, or obstacles ahead.

4.When driving in rain, what is a common risk associated with wet roads?

A) Increased fuel consumption

B) Improved traction

C) Faster tire wear

D) Hydroplaning

Correcte! Faux!

L'aquaplanage se produit lorsque de l'eau s'accumule entre vos pneus et la route, faisant perdre à votre véhicule le contact avec la surface. Cela réduit considérablement votre contrôle et augmente le risque de dérapage ou d'accident.

05/25

5.What is the correct action if you encounter a flooded road?

A) Drive through the water quickly to avoid damage

B) Test your brakes after driving through the water

C) Avoid testing the brakes until you reach your destination

D) Stop immediately and wait for the water to recede

Correcte! Faux!

Tester vos freins après avoir traversé de l'eau permet de s'assurer qu'ils fonctionnent correctement. Les freins mouillés risquent de ne pas fonctionner efficacement. Il faut donc les freiner légèrement pour s'assurer qu'ils réagissent bien avant de reprendre la conduite normale.

06/25

6.How should you react if your vehicle starts to skid?

A) Pump the brakes rapidly to regain control

B) Turn the wheel sharply to correct the skid

C) Ease off the accelerator and steer in the direction you want to go

D) Immediately turn on your high-beam headlights

Correcte! Faux!

Si votre véhicule commence à déraper, le fait de relâcher l'accélérateur et de braquer doucement dans la direction où vous voulez que l'avant du véhicule aille vous aide à reprendre le contrôle sans aggraver le dérapage.

Test de conduite dans des conditions défavorables

07/25

7.What is the best practice when driving on snow-covered roads?

A) Use cruise control to maintain a steady speed

B) Increase speed to improve traction

C) Avoid sudden movements and accelerate slowly

D) Rely on your high-beam headlights to see better

Correcte! Faux!

Sur les routes enneigées, une direction souple et une accélération progressive aident à maintenir la traction. Des mouvements brusques peuvent faire glisser le véhicule ou le faire partir en vrille en raison d'une adhérence réduite sur la surface glacée.

08/25

8.What should you do if visibility is near zero during a whiteout?

A) Attempt to pass other vehicles to get through the area quickly

B) Pull off the road into a safe parking area and wait for conditions to improve

C) Drive slowly and cautiously while staying in your lane

D) Use high-beam headlights to improve visibility

Correcte! Faux!

En cas de voile blanc et de visibilité quasi nulle, le plus sûr est de s'arrêter et d'attendre dans un endroit sûr. Conduire à l'aveuglette augmente le risque de collision et de se perdre ou de rester bloqué.

Test de conduite dans des conditions défavorables

09/25

9.What is a common feature of snow plows on public roadways?

A) They have red flashing lights

B) They move at high speeds to clear the road quickly

C) They may have a wing that extends to the right and move slowly

D) They always travel in the opposite direction of traffic

Correcte! Faux!

Snow plows often have a right-hand wing that extends beyond the vehicle to clear extra road width. They move slowly and may take up more space than regular vehicles, so drivers must keep a safe distance.

010/25

10.What is the key benefit of anti-lock braking systems (ABS) in slippery conditions?

A) Shortens stopping distances significantly

B) Prevents wheel lock-up and loss of steering control

C) Increases vehicle speed during emergency braking

D) Eliminates the need for regular brake maintenance

Correcte! Faux!

Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) prevent the wheels from locking during hard braking, allowing the driver to maintain steering control on slippery surfaces and reduce the risk of losing control.

11.When driving in poor weather conditions, what should you do with your following distance?

a) Maintain your usual following distance.

b) Reduce your following distance.

c) Increase your following distance.

d) It does not matter as long as your speed is reduced.

Correcte! Faux!

In poor weather, you should allow more time for your trip and increase your following distance to provide more reaction time.

12.At what visibility threshold must you turn your headlights on, regardless of the time of day?

a) When you cannot clearly see 50 metres (164 feet) in front of you.

b) When you cannot clearly see 100 metres (328 feet) in front of you.

c) When you cannot clearly see 150 metres (500 feet) in front of you.

a) Only if you are driving alone.

b) If there is any oncoming traffic.

a) Slightly down and to the right edge of your driving lane until the vehicle passes.

b) Directly into the headlights to adjust your vision.

c) To the center line of the road.

d) Close your eyes briefly until the vehicle passes.

Correcte! Faux!

To minimize the blinding effect of oncoming headlights, you should shift your gaze slightly down and to the right edge of your driving lane until the vehicle has passed.

15.If glare makes it difficult to see the road, what is the immediate action you should take?

a) Turn on your high beams.

b) Reduce your speed.

c) Immediately pull over.

d) Use your parking lights.

Correcte! Faux!

When glare impairs your vision of the road, the safest action is to reduce your speed to allow more time to react.

016/25

16.Which type of headlights should be used in smoke and fog?

a) High beams, for maximum visibility.

b) Daytime running lights, as they are less harsh.

c) Low beam headlights, as high beams reflect light back.

d) Hazard warning lights only.

Correcte! Faux!

In smoke and fog, use low beam headlights because high beams reflect light back, creating more glare and reducing visibility.

a) Slow down and move your vehicle well off the road to a safe location.

b) Drive slowly with hazard lights until you reach your destination.

c) Turn on high beams and continue driving carefully.

d) Follow the vehicle in front closely.

Correcte! Faux!

18.If your vehicle begins to hydroplane, what should you not do?

a) Release pressure on the accelerator.

b) Brake.

c) Look where you want the front of the vehicle to go.

d) Steer in the desired direction.

Correcte! Faux!

If your vehicle hydroplanes and loses contact with the road, it is crucial not to brake; instead, release the accelerator and steer in the desired direction.

a) Maintain your regular speed.

b) Increase your speed to gain traction.

Correcte! Faux!

Lorsque vous conduisez sur du verglas ou de la neige, la mesure de sécurité la plus importante est de réduire votre vitesse.

020/25

20.Is it recommended to use cruise control when weather and road conditions are poor (e.g., ice)?

a) Yes, it helps maintain a steady speed.

b) Only if you have traction control.

c) No, because it can cause loss of control if tires contact ice.

d) Only on divided highways.

Correcte! Faux!

You should not use cruise control in poor weather or road conditions, as it will continue to apply the accelerator if your tires hit ice, potentially causing you to lose control.
