Sample question from test 9
safe-driving
Before driving, which preparation is listed in Vermont's driver-readiness checks?
- Adjust the mirrors and fasten the safety belt
- Open the doors briefly to test the locks
- Leave the headlights off until entering traffic
- Release the parking brake before adjusting the seat
Answer: Adjust the mirrors and fasten the safety belt. The readiness routine includes adjusting the seat and mirrors, testing both brakes, adjusting and fastening the safety belt, locking the doors, and turning on the headlights. The mirror-and-belt choice names two actual checks, while leaving headlights off conflicts with the listed preparation. A practical cue is to complete the cabin setup before moving: see clearly, secure occupants, confirm braking, lock up, and illuminate the vehicle. These checks reduce preventable problems before the car enters traffic and make them easy to remember as a start-of-drive routine.
