GUAM CHAUFFEUR'S LICENSE STUDY
GUIDE
WITH CORRECT SOLUTIONS.
How can the driver anticipate a change in traffic signals as he approaches an intersection? - correct answer- Look well ahead for stale green lights, to avoid running through late.
If your vehicle is 38 feet in length, what "timed-interval" count would you use under ideal road and traffic conditions? - correct answer- 4 seconds. Round to nearest 10 feet and divide by 10.
What conditions should the driver consider when deciding upon a safe driving speed? - correct answer- 1. Road condition (rain)
- Tire condition (tread, inflation)
- Brake condition (adjustment)
- Light condition (glare, shadows)
- Visibility condition (dusk, rain, smoke, dust)
- Traffic density (vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists)
- Load condition (weight, length, width, type)
- Driver condition (fatigue, tension)

In what way does the slow driver create a traffic hazard? - correct answer- Slow drivers create hazards from vehicles following too close or trying to pass them, which increases their risk of an accident from the rear and the side.
In what way does the fast driver create a traffic hazard? - correct answer- Fast drivers increase their chance for collision by reducing stopping distance and increasing driving fatigue
What is the minimum following distance the driver of a commercial vehicle maintains when following another commercial vehicle outside of a business or residential district?
- correct answer- 200 feet, 2 second rule, take car length to the
nearest ten feet and divide by 10, 1 car length per 10 mph
What is the most effective way to deal with a "tail-gater"? - correct answer- Make sure to observe them carefully and help them to safely pass you.
What is the surest method of reducing stopping distance? - correct answer- Drive slower.

- Position your vehicle into the proper lane well before the turn
- Do not depend on other drivers.

at the intersection.
If the weight of the vehicle is doubled, how many times must the stopping power be increased? - correct answer- 2x
If the speed of the vehicle is doubled, by how many times must the braking force be increased to stop the vehicle? - correct answer- 4x
If the weight and the speed of the vehicle is doubled, by how many times must the braking force be increased to stop the vehicle? - correct answer- 8x
