Question 25 of 82
General Knowledge
Before driving a long distance at fast speed or carrying a full car load, you should:
A
Have a meal and a cup of coffee
B
Check your tyre pressure, and if necessary, increase it to what the manufacturer recommends
C
Make sure you have a street directory, so you know where you are going
WhyStopping on a freeway is more dangerous, even though there is an emergency lane. There is unlikely to be any where you can address these problems and you will create an unnecessary hazard if you have a preventable issue with your vehicle. It is important to have the correct tyre pressure because freeway speeds are high and incorrect tyre pressure can affect handling and increase the risk of a tyre blowout.
