Sample question from test 8
safe-driving
According to the Utah handbook, what is the first step in safely backing your vehicle?
- Turn on the hazard lights
- Sound the horn twice
- Check behind the vehicle before you get in
- Open the driver's door and lean out
Answer: Check behind the vehicle before you get in. Small children and objects behind a car are invisible from the driver's seat, so the handbook's first step for backing is to check behind the vehicle before you get in. Hazard lights, horn taps, and leaning out the door do not show you what is behind the bumper. After the walk around, apply the brake, shift to reverse, look over your shoulder, and back slowly, making quick checks to the front and sides if you are turning.
