Practice Test 7

What can you expect if you drive using rapid acceleration and heavy braking?

You see a pedestrian carrying a white stick that also has a red band. What does this mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vulnerable road users - You see a pedestrian carrying a white stick that also has a red band. What does this mean? When someone is deaf as well as blind, they may carry a white stick with a red reflective band or bands. They may not be aware that you're approaching and they may not be able to hear anything; so, for example, your horn would be ineffective as a warning to them.

What should you do when you see this sign as you travel along a motorway?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What should you do when you see this sign as you travel along a motorway? You'll see this sign if the motorway is closed ahead. Pull into the left-hand lane as soon as it's safe to do so. Don't wait until the last moment before you move across, because the lane may be busy and you'll have to rely on another driver making room for you.
