Sample question from test 2
signals-markings
When must Minnesota drivers use their headlights according to the vehicle-equipment section?
- From sunset until sunrise and whenever the road ahead cannot be seen for at least 500 feet
- Only between midnight and dawn on rural roads
- Only during rain, never during snow or fog
- Whenever another driver flashes headlights
Answer: From sunset until sunrise and whenever the road ahead cannot be seen for at least 500 feet. The manual says to turn headlights on at sunset and keep them on until sunrise. It also requires them during rain, snow, hail, sleet, fog, or any time the road ahead cannot be seen for at least 500 feet. The second choice narrows the clock and location without support. The third excludes weather conditions expressly listed, and the fourth makes another driver's signal the trigger. Turn the lights on before visibility becomes marginal, then keep them operating through the entire period when darkness or weather limits what you can see.
