2. Transportation Tuesday You are driving on the highway and traffic is joining from a bridge you just passed. Do you..

3. Transportation Tuesday You are driving in town and the idiot in front of you is going too slow, hesitating at roundabouts and generally irritating you. Do you.. FOLLOWING A SLOW DRIVER Drive on her bumper (tailgate), flash your lights and honk your horn. A Keep back - it looks like shes lost. Wait for a safe opportunity to pass her and be on your way. B As soon as you get a chance, move inside and pass by. Perhaps with a helpful gesture about women drivers. C I hope not! Think.

4. Transportation Tuesday You have to deliver a gift and youre late. Its a crystal set for your friends wedding, just around the corner. Do you.. CARRYING DELICATE CARGO Put it on the front seat. Its quite soft and will protect the gift from chips. A Pack it in a hard box, with stuffing. Use the back seat belt to strap it in place. You cant give a shattered gift! B Put it on the armrest between the front seats. You can hold it still with one hand while driving. After all, its only a short drive. C This seems like a good idea! Okay.

Theres no way youre adding one minute to your trip. A Slow down, stop and wait patiently. Rushing will only get you to the next set of lights faster. Theres no point risking it for a few seconds B Hesitate. Accelerate. Decide you cant make it in time and come to a screeching stop just into the crossing. Whew! That was close. C This seems like a good idea! What if your father is stepping onto the crossing at the other side as you rush through on red? You might get lucky and not kill him, but who knows? click on your answe r
