Questions (4)

1. How should you enter a roundabout?

Come to a complete stop just before entering the roundabout
Move into the appropriate lane for both entry and exit ✓
Accelerate as you enter the roundabout
Enter simultaneously with another vehicle already in the roundabout

Answer: B. Move into the appropriate lane for both entry and exit

Move into the lane that suits both your entry into and exit from the roundabout before you get there. The truck handbook says a large vehicle in a roundabout may need the full width of the roadway, including the central apron, and may need to occupy both lanes before entering. That makes lane choice something you settle on approach, not after you are in the circle. The warning-sign passage also says to reduce speed at a roundabout, so the approach is about positioning and slowing, not stopping or speeding up.

3. You're approaching an intersection, and you notice that the roadway beyond the intersection is blocked with traffic. What should you do?

Proceed into the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead moves on.
Stop before entering the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead moves on. ✓
Sound your horn to warn the cars ahead to move on.
Keep as close as possible to the vehicle ahead.

Answer: B. Stop before entering the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead moves on.

Stop before entering the intersection and wait until the traffic ahead has cleared enough for you to move through. The handbook's guidance on stopping says you should keep the vehicle under control, stop in a position that lets you see the area ahead, and leave reasonable space between you and the vehicle in front so you can still manoeuvre. It then says to move forward when adequate space becomes available ahead. Applied to a blocked intersection, that means holding back and waiting for room beyond the crossing instead of pulling in and sitting there.
