New Questions Exam 3

Video Explanation

Explanation

The one who leaves the curve on his right: Correct

When two vehicles cross a curve with their high beams on, the first to turn on their low beam is the one traveling on the inside of the curve (the one leaving it on the right), since their beam can sweep across the road and dazzle the oncoming vehicle.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Walking perpendicular to the axis of the road: Correct

When pedestrians need to cross a roadway where there is no marked crossing, it is essential that they do so safely and efficiently.
The regulations establish that they must cross perpendicularly to the axis of the roadway.
This means that they must move in a straight line from one side of the street to the other, without deviating or taking diagonal or indirect paths.
Crossing perpendicularly minimizes the time pedestrians spend on the road, thus reducing the risk of accidents.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Presence of dust or sand in suspension: Correct

This traffic sign is a warning to drivers that there may be dust or sand lifted into the air, reducing visibility and possibly affecting vehicle control. These suspended particles can be caused by windstorms, desert areas, unpaved roads, or construction sites.

Dust in the air can make it hard to see vehicles ahead. A thin layer of fine sand can make the road slippery, especially when turning or braking. Strong winds carrying sand can push your car sideways, affecting steering.
Reduce speed, Increase following distance, Turn on headlights if visibility is low, Avoid sudden maneuvers.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Stress, worries or excessive driving time, among other factors: Correct

Driving for long periods without stopping to rest or taking insufficient breaks can cause driver fatigue.
It is also caused by excessively high speed and stress or worries in the driver of the vehicle.

Video Explanation

Explanation

No, since it is not an appropriate state of mind to drive without creating danger: Correct

Driving a vehicle after having consumed narcotics or psychotropic substances that alter the mental state is a prohibited and highly dangerous practice, even on short trips.
This is because these substances have the potential to significantly impair the driver’s abilities, putting their own safety and that of other road users at risk.
Like alcohol and certain medications, drug abuse can have a negative impact on a driver’s ability to maintain attention, react appropriately to traffic situations, and make safe decisions.
The only exception to this rule is when the substances are used under medical prescription and for therapeutic purposes.

Video Explanation

Explanation

On leisure trips during the summer months: Correct

The period of the year with the highest number of traffic accidents on Spanish roads is the summer holiday season, especially on short, leisure trips.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Without delay, after checking that there is no risk of being stopped on the railway track: Correct

Vehicles crossing a level crossing must be done quickly and without delay, crossing correctly at the designated crossing point and after checking that there is no danger of becoming trapped or stopped on the railway tracks.

Video Explanation

Explanation

No, because the roadway does not have priority at the intersection: Correct

In the image, we see that the red vehicle is overtaking the blue vehicle on a two-way road.
The roadway has a vertical warning sign of danger for an intersection with priority on the right.
This means that at the next intersection, the general rule that vehicles traveling on the main road (the red and blue cars in this case) have priority over those approaching from the left and right does not prevail.
The blue car is correctly stopped, yielding the right of way to vehicles approaching from the right, so we will say that the red car is overtaking incorrectly since its road does not have priority and it must also stop to yield the right of way.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Circulates correctly: Correct

When there is no road or part of it specifically designated for them, they must drive on the right-hand shoulder, if it is passable and sufficient, and if it is not, using the essential part of the roadway. This applies to drivers of:
• Cycles and mopeds
• Animal-drawn vehicles
• Special vehicles with GVW up to 3,500 kg
• Vehicles for people with reduced mobility
• Vehicles following cyclists
However, on long descents with curves, when safety reasons permit, cyclists may leave the shoulder and ride on the right side of the road as needed.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Those intended for rental service with driver: Correct

The interior lighting is the light intended to illuminate the vehicle’s passenger compartment in such a way as to avoid glare or disturb other road users. Its use is optional for tractors, self-propelled machinery, and agricultural trailers, but is mandatory for vehicles used for hire with driver and public passenger services.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Circular: Correct

The traffic restriction signs found at the beginning of intersections prohibit or restrict access to vehicles that encounter them head-on in the direction of travel and from the location where they are located. They will be circular with a red border.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Security: Correct

Vehicle windows or transparent elements must always be safety-approved, as they are harder to break than conventional glass, and in the event of breakage in an accident, the injuries they may cause to vehicle occupants will be less severe.

Video Explanation

Explanation

An approved reflective element that is visible from a minimum distance of 150 meters: Correct

All pedestrians traveling on the roadway or shoulder of a road outside of built-up areas, between sunset and sunrise, or in weather or environmental conditions that significantly reduce visibility, must wear a vest or other approved luminous or retroreflective device that is visible to approaching drivers at a distance of at least 150 meters. They are not required to wear a vest when traveling on roads within built-up areas.

Video Explanation

Explanation

The largest of all individual widths: Correct

When a group of special vehicles is travelling on a road, the width of the group shall be the largest of all the individual widths, i.e. the special vehicle of the group with the greatest width.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Restricted passage sign: Correct

The R-201 vertical mass restriction sign is included within the vertical traffic restriction signs, and when located at the beginning of a road, it will prohibit access to said road to all vehicles with a total mass greater than that indicated on the sign (in this case 5.5 tonnes).

Video Explanation

Explanation

Yes, as long as I am on duty: Correct

Traffic regulations do not require taxi drivers to wear seat belts when driving in towns and on duty with the meter on.
This rule will not apply on motorways and dual carriageways, where seat belts will always be mandatory for all drivers.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Place where vehicle parking is authorized: Correct

Sign S-17 indicates a place where vehicle parking is authorized, and sign S-123 indicates a rest area.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Will leave the doors open and the key in the box: Correct

In the event of a fire inside a tunnel or underpass, the driver must leave the doors open and the key in the vehicle.
This facilitates access to emergency services.
In addition, you must move the vehicle as far to the right as possible so as not to obstruct the passage of emergency vehicles, turn off the engine, and together with the occupants, quickly leave the vehicle, heading to the nearest shelter or exit, in the opposite direction to the fire, avoiding traveling on the road if there are safe areas excluded from vehicle traffic.

Video Explanation

Explanation

No, in addition, the immobilization of the vehicle may be ordered: Correct

As a general rule, parking in a time-limited parking lot is not permitted without a valid permit, such as a ticket or permit.
Time-limited parking zones are designed to regulate the use of space and ensure availability for a greater number of users.
Specific rules include:
• Use of Parking Placard: It is mandatory to place the corresponding placard authorizing parking, such as a ticket or permit, visible in the vehicle.
• Respect for the Maximum Permitted Time: The maximum permitted parking time indicated on the sign must not be exceeded.
• Possible Penalties: If you park without the required placard or exceed the maximum permitted time, traffic officers have the authority to immobilize or even remove the vehicle.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Quickly and calmly: Correct

When we witness a traffic accident, we must always act quickly and calmly to make the best possible decisions and avoid further distressing those injured in the accident. Under no circumstances should we act too calmly or passively, but rather quickly and effectively

Video Explanation

Explanation

Optics and acoustics: Correct

Agents can make two types of signals to regulate traffic: optical (using arm gestures, flags, lights, etc.) and acoustic (using a whistle).

Video Explanation

Explanation

Authorization B-96: Correct

To drive a 3,000 kg GVW passenger car towing an 800 kg GVW trailer, you will need, in addition to a Class B driving license, a B-96 authorization.
This type of permit is essential when the combined vehicle and trailer weighs more than 3,500 kg but does not exceed 4,250 kg.
The standard B driving license allows you to tow light trailers up to 750 kg GVW or trailers over 750 kg, provided the combined weight does not exceed 3,500 kg.
However, when the combined weight exceeds 3,500 kg and does not reach 4,250 kg, it is mandatory to pass an additional test to obtain the B-96 authorization.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Respect the right of way of pedestrians: Correct

To avoid traffic accidents involving pedestrians, and especially pedestrian run-overs, motor vehicle drivers must always respect the right of way of pedestrians and must never use the horn when approaching a pedestrian crossing or signal to pedestrians when they should proceed.

Video Explanation

Explanation

No lighting: Correct

In private parking lots, whether well-lit or not, we should not leave any of the vehicle’s lights on, as this could unnecessarily drain the battery and prevent the vehicle from starting.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Yes: Correct

The use of a safety helmet will be mandatory for both the driver and any passenger riding in the sidecar of this type of motorcycle.
This is because even though the sidecar has a seat belt, in the event of a rollover, the upper half of the passenger’s body would be exposed, including their head.

Video Explanation

Explanation

Two: Correct

Trailers for agricultural machinery may optionally be fitted with two red brake lights on the rear.

Video Explanation

Explanation

No, never: Correct

When witnessing a traffic accident, we will avoid altering the state of things, traces, or other evidence that could be useful in determining liability in cases where there are injuries or fatalities. Exceptionally, the state of things may be altered when failure to do so would jeopardize the safety of the injured or traffic.

Explanation

Support the load with the help of inflation pressure: Correct

The main functions of the carcass in a tire’s casing are to support load and speed with the help of inflation pressure, contribute to the vehicle’s stability and comfort, and also contribute to the tire’s performance and energy efficiency.

Video Explanation

Explanation

We must continue braking hard: Correct

ABS’s job is to prevent wheel lockup in the event of sudden braking. It automatically corrects the driver’s error by regulating the braking power of each wheel based on its grip. This allows the vehicle’s trajectory to be controlled and maximizes braking power.
During emergency braking, you must fully depress the brake pedal and the clutch pedal to prevent the engine from stalling and the ABS from becoming inoperative.

Video Explanation

Explanation

When it snows a lot: Correct

Using the rear fog light:
• Rear Fog Light Purpose: The rear fog light is designed to improve visibility of your vehicle to drivers following you in severely reduced visibility conditions. This light is brighter than the standard brake light and emits a deep red beam.
• Conditions of Use: You must use the rear fog light in extremely low visibility conditions, such as heavy snow, thick fog, or torrential rain. General regulations state that these lights must be used when visibility is less than 50 meters.
• Regulation of Use: It is important not to use the rear fog lights when visibility conditions are not sufficiently poor, since their intensity can dazzle other drivers and cause danger on the road.
