Georgia Learners Test Safe Driving and Hazard Awareness 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In Georgia, what is the recommended action when a traffic signal is not working (dark)?
- Yield to the vehicle on the right
- Treat it as a four-way stop (Correct answer)
- The road with more lanes has the right of way
- Proceed without stopping
Correct answer: Treat it as a four-way stop
A non-functioning traffic signal should be treated as a four-way stop, with all drivers coming to a complete stop before proceeding.
Question 2: You are about to drive but feel very drowsy. The safest action is to:
- Open the windows for fresh air and continue
- Turn up the radio to stay alert
- Pull over in a safe location and rest before driving (Correct answer)
- Drink coffee and continue driving
Correct answer: Pull over in a safe location and rest before driving
The only safe remedy for drowsy driving is to stop, pull off the road in a safe place, and rest before continuing your trip.
Question 3: What does an orange-colored traffic sign typically indicate?
- Regulatory restriction
- Warning of railroad crossing
- Construction or work zone ahead (Correct answer)
- School zone warning
Correct answer: Construction or work zone ahead
Orange traffic signs are used in construction and work zones to warn drivers of road work, lane closures, or changed driving conditions ahead.
Question 4: When parallel parking on a downhill slope with a curb, you should turn your front wheels:
- Straight ahead
- Away from the curb
- Toward the curb (Correct answer)
- Left
Correct answer: Toward the curb
When parking downhill with a curb, turn your front wheels toward the curb so the car will roll into the curb rather than into traffic if the brakes fail.
Question 5: In Georgia, a flashing yellow traffic light means:
- Stop and wait for a green light
- Proceed with caution (Correct answer)
- The signal is about to turn red
- Yield to all traffic
Correct answer: Proceed with caution
A flashing yellow traffic light in Georgia means proceed with caution — slow down and be alert for other vehicles and pedestrians.
Question 6: The 'danger zone' or blind spot around large trucks where car drivers should avoid traveling is:
- Only directly behind the truck
- Directly behind, both sides, and directly in front of the truck (Correct answer)
- Only on the passenger side
- Only when the truck is turning
Correct answer: Directly behind, both sides, and directly in front of the truck
Large trucks have extensive blind spots (No-Zones) directly in front, directly behind, and along both sides — drivers in those areas are invisible to the truck driver.
