Question 1 of 39
1. Question
1 pointsWhen approaching an intersection which is blocked with traffic, what should drivers do?
Correct
Whenever an intersection is blocked or partially blocked by traffic, drivers must not enter the intersection. Drivers should only enter an intersection when the way is clear and if they are able to travel all the way across the intersection. If a traffic light has turned yellow, and traffic ahead is stopped just at the edge of the intersection, drivers must not enter the intersection, since they will not be able to clear the intersection immediately, and will block traffic.
Incorrect
Stop and wait until the traffic ahead moves on before entering the intersection

Question 2 of 39
2. Question
1 pointsThe Accessible Parking Permit?
Correct
The Accessible Parking Permit is issued to individuals. In order to receive this permit, individuals must have a form completed by their doctor; this form is taken to MTO, where an accessible parking permit may be issued. The parking permit is to be used only by the individual for whom it was issued. It is not intended to be used by the individual’s family or friends. It should only be used when the individual is travelling in the vehicle. For example, a wife out shopping must not use her husband’s permit if her husband is at home caring for their children. The permit is for her husband’s use when he is an occupant of the vehicle.
Incorrect
Issued to an individual, entitles the vehicle in which it is displayed to be parked in a designated disabled parking space

Question 3 of 39
3. Question
1 pointsThe most effective way to stop quickly on wet or icy roads is to:
Correct
When drivers need to stop quickly on wet or icy roadways, the safest method to use is threshold braking, which involves braking until just before the wheels begin to lock, then releasing and reapplying the brakes as needed until the vehicle comes to a stop. Newer vehicles equipped with ABS braking systems do this work for drivers, making a thudding noise, and a jerking sensation which can be somewhat disconcerting the first or second time it occurs. Drivers should familiarize themselves with their vehicles and understand how to brake effectively in case of an emergency.
Incorrect
Brake firmly. If the wheels lock, release and reapply the brakes in quick succession until the vehicle comes to a stop

Question 4 of 39
4. Question
1 pointsA flashing green light at an intersection where turns to the right and left are allowed indicates that drivers may:
Correct
A flashing green light appearing on its own is a signal to indicate that drivers may proceed in any direction, provided the way is clear. It is not the same as an advanced left turn, which appears either as a green arrow or a flashing green light on a traffic signal with the red light displayed; this advanced left turn allows for turns only in the direction of the arrow, provided the intersection is clear.
Incorrect
Turn right or left or go straight if the way is clear
-
Question 5 of 39
5. Question
1 pointsJust how much insurance coverage is given to an uninsured driver?
Correct
By law in Ontario, all drivers are required to have insurance coverage for their vehicle. Proof of insurance coverage is required to register vehicles, and for drivers to renew their vehicle plate permits. Drivers who drive illegally without insurance coverage have no financial recourse if an accident occurs, and will be held personally liable for all costs incurred. Uninsured drivers also risk the possibility of civil lawsuits which could lead to their personal bankruptcy. All drivers must obtain insurance coverage before driving. If borrowing a vehicle, drivers should be certain that they are covered under the owner’s insurance.
Incorrect
No coverage whatsoever

Question 6 of 39
6. Question
1 pointsA solid line to the left of a traffic lane means:
Correct
Solid lines to the left of a lane are put there because MTO has determined that it is unsafe to pass along that section of the roadway. Drivers must not attempt to pass other vehicles when there is a solid line to the left of their lane, regardless of whether the line is white (marking another lane of traffic travelling in the same direction) or yellow (marking a lane of oncoming traffic). They should wait until a broken line (white or yellow) occurs to their left, determine if it is safe to pass, then do so properly.
Incorrect
It is unsafe to pass

Question 7 of 39
7. Question
1 pointsFully licensed vehicle drivers (G license) may be requested to attend either an interview and/or re-examination of their driving ability at:
Correct
‘G’ drivers must attend an interview and re-examination when required. If they fail the re-examination test, their license can be cancelled. If they fail to attend the interview, or fail to give good reasons for keeping their license, their license may be suspended.
Incorrect
9 demerit points
-
Question 8 of 39
8. Question
1 pointsWhenever involved in a reportable incident, drivers need to report this to their closest provincial or municipal police _________
Correct
Drivers must immediately report accidents when an injury is involved, or when there is damage to vehicles or property over $1000. Failing to do so and/or failing to provide required information to the police may result in a fine of $200 to $1,000, 3 demerit points, a possible jail term and suspension of the driver’s license. Drivers must remain at the scene of a collision: the penalty for leaving the scene is seven demerit points.
Incorrect
Immediately
-
Question 9 of 39
9. Question
1 pointsWhen driving along a highway close to an exit ramp, what must drivers do if there are continuity lines to the right of their lane?
Correct
Multilane highways often have two lanes that can be used to exit the highway at off-ramps; this allows for more traffic to move off the highway at the same exit. The right-most lane is required to exit: there will be a solid line to the right of that lane. The second exit lane usually offers the option of exiting or continuing along the freeway: it will have broken lines (continuity lines) to its right. Drivers in this extra exit lane simply continue to drive along the highway if they do not wish to exit.
Incorrect
They are not required to do anything unless they want to exit; the lane is unaffected
-
Question 10 of 39
10. Question
1 pointsWhen are drivers allowed to lend their license to someone else?
Correct
A driver’s license is valid only for the person to whom it was issued: the only person permitted to use the license is the driver himself or herself. Drivers must never lend their license to someone else, not even to an underage friend who wants to buy cigarettes or alcohol. It is illegal to use another driver’s license for any purpose.
Incorrect
Never
-
Question 11 of 39
11. Question
1 pointsNever change lanes without:
Correct
On multilane roadways, there is always the possibility that other vehicles are travelling in lanes to the right or left of the driver changing lanes. There is also the possibility that vehicles in other lanes are accelerating into the driver’s blind spot. For these reasons, drivers must always use caution when changing lanes, ensuring they signal to inform other drivers of their intention, then check their rear view mirror and blind spots to ensure it is safe to change lanes.
Incorrect
Signaling, checking the rear view mirror and checking blind spots
-
Question 12 of 39
12. Question
1 pointsPedestrians facing a flashing or steady red hand symbol should:
Correct
Pedestrians should always obey crossing signals. Unfortunately, pedestrians sometimes cross when and where they shouldn’t. Drivers must yield right-of-way to pedestrians, even when pedestrians are ‘in the wrong’.
Incorrect
Not begin to cross the road. If they have already begun to cross, they should finish crossing quickly and safely
-
Question 13 of 39
13. Question
1 pointsThe very first time they get to 15 demerit points, fully-licensed G drivers will have their license:
Correct
At 15 demerit points, G drivers’ licenses will be suspended for 30 days from the date they hand over their license to MTO. Drivers can lose their license for up to two years if they fail to surrender it. After the suspension, the number of points on their driver’s record will be reduced to seven. At this stage, any further points could result in an interview, and if drivers reach 15 demerit points again, they will have their license suspended for 6 months. The demerit points system works differently for drivers with a G1 or G2 license. For more information on demerit points, please select the following link: http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/dandv/driver/handbook/section4.6.0.shtml
Incorrect
Suspended for 30 days
-
Question 14 of 39
14. Question
1 pointsWhat’s the meaning of ‘overdriving’ your headlights?
Correct
Overdriving the headlights is dangerous. Drivers who are travelling this fast will not see obstructions in the road in time to stop, and will most likely be involved in a collision as a result. Drivers are most likely to overdrive their headlights in conditions that limit visibility such as fog and heavy rain or snow. Drivers should always be certain to adjust their speed to the conditions of the road.
Incorrect
It means that drivers are going so fast that their stopping distance is farther than they can see with their headlights
-
Question 15 of 39
15. Question
1 pointsDuring good weather, what’s the minimum distance when following, drivers should keep between their vehicle and a motorcycle ahead of them?
Correct
Motorcycles are harder to see because of their size. Drivers of these vehicles may make sudden moves because of uneven road surfaces or debris on the roadway. Because they are less protected, drivers of motorcycles are more likely to be injured in a collision. For these reasons, drivers need to maintain a larger following distance between their vehicle and a motorcycle in front of them. While a safe following distance for cars is 2 seconds, a gap of 3 or more seconds is safest when following a motorcycle.
Incorrect
3 seconds
-
Question 16 of 39
16. Question
1 pointsWhat should drivers do should they become stranded in snow?
Correct
Being stranded in the snow can be dangerous for two main reasons: exposure to cold, and/or exposure to carbon monoxide that may occur in attempting to stay warm. If needed, to keep warm, drivers may run the vehicle’s engine, but should do so no more than about 5 minutes every hour. Running the engine longer or more often than this may result in carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless poison, so drivers might not realize they are being exposed to it until it is too late. Drivers should be certain to avoid this exposure by limiting their use of the engine whenever the tailpipe is blocked by snow or any other object. It is always best to carry emergency equipment in the vehicle. Emergency blankets are a safe way to maintain warmth in this situation.
Incorrect
Run the vehicle’s engine no more than about 5 minutes every hour to stay warm while avoiding carbon monoxide poisoning

Question 17 of 39
17. Question
1 pointsThe centre lane of some roads can be used as a _____?
Correct
Remember that vehicles from the opposite direction also use this lane to turn left. As they wait in front of you, it may be hard for you to see oncoming traffic. Only go when you are sure the way is clear.
Incorrect
Two-way left-turn lane
-
Question 18 of 39
18. Question
1 pointsAt an intersection where by left-turn lanes are marked on the pavement ____?
Correct
At an intersection where left-turn lanes are marked on the pavement, make your turn from the marked lane. Keep this lane position as you turn onto the other road.
Incorrect
Make your turn from the marked lane
-
Question 19 of 39
19. Question
1 pointsSpecial passing or climbing lanes allow slower vehicles switch into the right-hand lane allowing faster ones to pass safely while in the left lane.
Correct
An advance sign tells drivers they will soon have a chance to pass.
Incorrect
1
-
Question 20 of 39
20. Question
1 pointsRoad test failures might result from:
Correct
Driver examiners will not issue a pass on a road test if the applicant breaks a traffic law during the test. They also will not issue a pass if the applicant lacks skill or control of the vehicle, has difficulty obeying traffic signals, or drives in an unsafe manner. At the end of each test, the examiner will give applicants a complete report of their skills and explain any mistakes they have made. If drivers fail the test, the report will show them where they need to improve. When they have had more practice, drivers can make an appointment to take the test again. Drivers must wait at least 10 days between tests.
Incorrect
All answers are correct
-
Question 21 of 39
21. Question
1 pointsWhenever a police officer motions them to proceed through an intersection where the light is red, exactly what should drivers do?
Correct
Drivers must obey police officers’ signals. Police officers working intersections are usually present to direct traffic due to malfunctioning lights, construction, or an accident. Drivers should not stop in the middle of an intersection to speak to police officers. If drivers have questions about something that is occurring on the road, their safest option is to listen to a local news station. Failing to obey the directions of a police office will result in 3 demerit points.
Incorrect
Obey the police officer’s signal and proceed
-
Question 22 of 39
22. Question
1 pointsWhat should drivers do if they feel drowsy when driving?
Correct
It is very dangerous to drive while drowsy. If they begin to feel drowsy, drivers should pull over and rest in a safe area. Drivers should be certain that they are fully awake and alert at all times while driving.

Stop in a safe area and rest
-
Question 23 of 39
23. Question
1 pointsUnder what instances could drivers lose their license?

Question 24 of 39
24. Question
1 pointsWhat’s the consequence for the third or subsequent incidence of a driver caught with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) within the ‘warn range’ of 0.05 to 0.08?
Correct
Drinking and driving is a serious and dangerous offense. It is always best not to drink if you need to drive, or to arrange alternate transportation if you have had any alcohol. Those who choose to continue to drive with their BAC in the ‘warn range’ even after prior warnings will face immediate and long-term consequences in an effort to ensure they properly understand the dangers of drinking and driving.
Incorrect
All answers are correct
-
Question 25 of 39
25. Question
1 pointsA school bus with red signal lights flashing has stopped on the highway which has no median strip. What does the law require motor drivers to do?
Correct
School buses that are stopped with their red lights flashing are either taking on or letting off passengers. In most cases these passengers will be children travelling to or from school. These children may need to cross the highway, and are supposed to do so in front of the bus while the bus driver waits with the red lights flashing, which is why it is the law that other drivers on the road must stop. Children can be excited or distracted, and may not be aware of other traffic on the road, so drivers must stop and permit children to cross the roadway safely. Failing to stop for a school bus that has its red lights flashing is illegal. Drivers who don’t stop can be fined $400 to $2,000 and get six demerit points for a first offence.
Incorrect
Stop at least 20 m away if approaching the bus from behind or stop a safe distance from the bus if approaching from the opposite direction. Proceed only when the bus’ signal lights are no longer flashing

Incorrect
Turn your body and head to the right and look back over your right shoulder
-
Question 29 of 39
29. Question
1 pointsA traffic signal with a red light and showing a green arrow indicates:
Correct
In many cases, traffic lights can be adjusted to help regulate the flow of traffic during rush hours. A green arrow pointing left at a traffic signal with a red light is an advanced green, permitting drivers to make left turns (provided the way is clear) before traffic in the opposite direction is permitted to travel through the intersection. A green arrow pointing right indicates that drivers may turn right without stopping, provided the way is clear.
Incorrect
Proceed with caution in the direction of arrow
-
Question 30 of 39
30. Question
1 pointsIn cases where a traffic signal changes whilst a pedestrian is still on the street, who’s got the right-of-way?
Correct
Pedestrians must always be given the right-of-way, even if crossing illegally. It is never permissible to hit a pedestrian. If a driver accidently hits a pedestrian, it is illegal for the driver to leave the scene, even if the pedestrian initially appears unhurt. The driver must immediately stop, give the pedestrian any assistance required, and report the incident to the police.
Incorrect
The pedestrian
-
Question 31 of 39
31. Question
1 pointsWet roadways could cause:
Correct
Driving on wet roadways requires extra caution. Water spray can reduce visibility, so drivers should have their full headlight system on, and use windshield wipers and windshield wiper fluid as needed. Wet roadways can also cause loss of traction and/or hydroplaning. If this occurs, drivers should ease off the gas pedal to reduce speed naturally while maintaining control of the vehicle.
Incorrect
All answers are correct
-
Question 32 of 39
32. Question
1 pointsWhat actions must be taken any time a vehicle’s brakes fail?
Correct
Drivers should remain calm in this and all emergency situations. If the brakes fail, drivers should pump the brakes rapidly, as this may prompt the brakes to begin working again. Shifting into a lower gear will help slow the vehicle because this causes the engine to work harder. Drivers should be careful not to accelerate in this situation, something that could easily happen if they panic and act without thinking.
Incorrect
Pump the brakes rapidly and shift into a lower gear
-
Question 33 of 39
33. Question
1 pointsWhat documents might police officers ask drivers to produce?
Correct
Drivers must always have their own valid license, as well as the pink insurance slip and ownership papers for the vehicle being driven. If drivers do not have the pink insurance slip, they can be fined up to $400.
Incorrect
All the answers are correct
-
Question 34 of 39
34. Question
1 pointsA flashing blue light installed on a motor vehicle indicates:
Correct
Flashing lights on vehicles often indicate the purpose of the vehicle, and are useful to help drivers make appropriate decisions when these vehicles approach. For example, snow removal equipment, bearing a flashing blue light, takes up a full lane on the road and often moves much slower than other traffic. In many cases, drivers will choose to pass these vehicles when safe to do so, but during episodes of heavy snowfall it can be wiser to remain behind them and drive on the roadway they have cleared.
Incorrect
Snow removal equipment
-
Question 35 of 39
35. Question
1 pointsWhat’s the safest course of action a driver should to take whenever their vehicle drives over black ice?
Correct
Driving over black ice can be dangerous because it can result in uncontrolled skidding if handled improperly. The safest course of action is to ease off the accelerator, maintain control of the vehicle, and steer in the desired direction. Drivers should avoid panic and should avoid hard braking. Drivers must not put their vehicle in neutral, because they will no longer have proper control of the vehicle.
Incorrect
Calmly remove their foot from the accelerator and steer in the desired direction
-
Question 36 of 39
36. Question
1 pointsLegally, drivers need to report a collision to the police whenever a person sustains injuries, or whenever there is damage to vehicles or other property exceeding:

-
Question 37 of 39
37. Question
1 pointsHow long do drivers have to notify the Ministry of Transportation of any change of name or address?
Correct
The Ministry of Transportation requires up-to-date information on all drivers at all times for many reasons, so drivers are required by law to inform the MTO of any changes to names or addresses within 6 days.
Incorrect
Within 6 days
-
Question 38 of 39
38. Question
1 pointsWhenever approaching a railway crossing with an electrical or mechanical signal device that’s warning of an approaching train, drivers must:
Correct
Drivers must use caution around railway crossings. Trains can travel at high speeds, and are not able to stop suddenly. If a signal device is warning of an approaching train, it is dangerous to attempt to cross the train tracks. Drivers should never attempt to drive under or around railway barriers, even if they do not see a train approaching.
Incorrect
Stop at least 5 m from the nearest rail or gate
-
Question 39 of 39
39. Question
1 pointsThe Ministry of Transportation may possibly suspend the license of G drivers following a 9 demerit point interview:
Correct
If ‘G’ drivers reach 9 demerit points, the MTO considers them potentially dangerous to themselves or others on the road. As a result, they may be required to attend an interview to discuss their driving record, and/or may be required to attend a re-examination of their driving ability. Drivers must attend the interview, and must be prepared to give good reasons for keeping their license, or their license may be suspended.
Incorrect
If the driver fails to attend the interview, or fails to give good reasons for being permitted to keep the license
