Führerschein Führerscheintest Erste Hilfe und Unfallverhalten 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: How deeply should you compress the chest during adult CPR?
- 5–6 cm (Correct answer)
- 2–3 cm
- 8–10 cm
- 3–4 cm
Correct answer: 5–6 cm
ERC guidelines specify chest compressions of 5–6 cm depth for adults to ensure adequate cardiac output during CPR.
Question 2: What ratio of chest compressions to rescue breaths is recommended for a lone rescuer performing CPR on an adult?
- 30 compressions to 2 breaths (Correct answer)
- 15 compressions to 2 breaths
- 5 compressions to 1 breath
- Compressions only, no rescue breaths
Correct answer: 30 compressions to 2 breaths
The standard ratio is 30 chest compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths, repeated continuously until professional help arrives.
Question 3: What does the mnemonic 'DRABC' stand for in first aid assessment?
- Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation (Correct answer)
- Diagnose, React, Airway, Bleed, Compress
- Danger, Rescue, Assess, Breathe, Call
- Direct, Respond, Alert, Bandage, Compress
Correct answer: Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation
DRABC is the primary survey sequence: check for Danger to yourself and the scene, assess Response of the casualty, open the Airway, check Breathing, and assess Circulation.
Question 4: How should severe external bleeding be controlled at an accident scene?
- Apply firm, continuous direct pressure to the wound with a clean pad or cloth (Correct answer)
- Apply a tourniquet immediately above the wound
- Clean the wound with water first, then apply a bandage loosely
- Elevate the limb only, without applying pressure
Correct answer: Apply firm, continuous direct pressure to the wound with a clean pad or cloth
Direct sustained pressure is the most effective first aid method for controlling external bleeding before professional help arrives.
Question 5: What must you do legally after being involved in a road traffic accident in Germany, even a minor one?
- Stop, secure the scene, and exchange details with the other party or wait for police (Correct answer)
- Drive to the nearest police station to report it
- Continue if no injuries and damage is minor
- Take photos and leave contact information on the windshield
Correct answer: Stop, secure the scene, and exchange details with the other party or wait for police
German law (§ 142 StGB) requires all parties to stop, remain at the scene, and either exchange details or wait a reasonable time for police — leaving is a criminal offence.
Question 6: When should you NOT remove a motorcyclist's helmet after an accident?
- When they are conscious and breathing normally, unless airway is obstructed (Correct answer)
- Always remove the helmet immediately after any accident
- Only when the helmet is visibly damaged
- When the casualty asks you to remove it
Correct answer: When they are conscious and breathing normally, unless airway is obstructed
A helmet should not be removed unless the casualty's airway is blocked, as improper removal risks causing or worsening spinal cord injury.
