Random 25 Questions

To warn following traffic that the traffic ahead is slowing down sharply, you should briefly use the hazard warning lights. This is a clear signal to other drivers that they should slow down and be cautious.

When your vehicle is involved in an accident, the first step is to mark the position of your vehicle (for evidence purposes) and move it off the road if it's safe to do so. This helps prevent further accidents and keeps traffic flowing. After ensuring safety, you should call the police and follow legal requirements. It's important not to attempt to find the cause of the accident immediately, as this can interfere with the investigation.

That’s a Slippery Road Ahead.

This Slippery Road Ahead sign warns drivers that the surface ahead may be slippery, especially when wet. Drivers should reduce speed and avoid sudden maneuvers.

The road sign shown indicates a Sharp Reverse Curve To Left.

A "Sharp Reverse Curve to Left" sign warns drivers of two sharp bends ahead-first to the left, then immediately to the right. Drivers should slow down and navigate carefully.

The road sign shown is a Right Bend.

A 'Right Bend' sign warns drivers that the road curves to the right ahead. Drivers should slow down and follow the bend safely.

If your doctor has prescribed glasses for you to read vehicle number plates at the required distance, you must wear them at all times when driving. It's crucial for your safety and the safety of others on the road to be able to read signs, number plates, and any other visual cues clearly.

Driving on a wet road can significantly impact visibility due to the glare from reflected light on the water, making it harder to see other vehicles, pedestrians, and road markings, especially at night or in heavy rain, which can significantly reduce your ability to react to potential hazards.

Additionally, fog or mist may develop in wet conditions, further impairing visibility.

It’s important to drive cautiously and adjust speed when road conditions are wet to maintain control and visibility.

Explanation: If you're driving on a motorway at night or in poor visibility, you must always use your headlights, even if the road is well lit. Other road users must be able to see you, but you should avoid causing dazzle.

A driver should look far ahead of the vehicle while driving, typically aiming for a 12-15 second gap between their car and the one in front to allow enough time to react to potential hazards.

If a vehicle comes up quickly behind you, flashing its headlights, it's signaling that it wants to overtake. The safest option is to allow the vehicle to pass. Maintain your speed and position, but don’t speed up or brake abruptly—just let the other vehicle safely overtake.

The 2-second gap provides an ideal stopping distance under normal driving conditions, allowing enough time to react and brake safely if the vehicle in front stops suddenly.

If a driver has left their left indicator on, it may be unsafe to overtake as they might still turn unexpectedly. It’s best to stay behind and wait until you are sure of their intentions to avoid a possible collision.

Before making a U-turn, it's crucial to look over your shoulder to check for any blind spots and ensure it is safe to turn. Relying only on mirrors may not give you a complete view of approaching vehicles.

According to the Ghana Highway Code, Red means: "STOP. Wait behind the stop line on the carriageway."
Amber means: "STOP at the stop line." If you have already crossed the white line when the light turns amber, you should proceed with caution. If you have not crossed the white line yet, you must stop.

If you adjust your side mirrors and can only see the sides of your vehicle, it means your mirrors are adjusted incorrectly. They should be angled outward so you can only see a small portion of your car's side, allowing for a wider view of the road and traffic behind you. The goal is to see as much of the lane beside you as possible, not your own car.

Proper mirror adjustment helps reduce blind spots, making it easier to spot vehicles approaching from behind and beside you, which improves overall road safety.

For safety, it's essential to regularly check critical components of your vehicle such as lights, brakes, steering, tyres, and direction indicators. These are crucial for safe driving, as they affect the vehicle's performance and ability to respond to road conditions.

In an emergency braking situation, seat belts hold you in place and prevent you from being thrown forward. They are designed to reduce injury by keeping you securely seated, absorbing the force of sudden deceleration.

When the fuel pump symbol (fuel warning light) on your dashboard is lit, it usually means:

🚨 Low Fuel Level – Your fuel tank is running low, and you should refuel soon to avoid running out of fuel.

However, in some cases, it can also indicate:
🔧 Fuel System Issue – If the light stays on even after refueling, there might be a problem with the fuel sensor, fuel pump, or fuel filter.

⚠️ What to Do?

• Refuel as soon as possible to avoid getting stranded.
• If the light stays on even after refueling, have a mechanic check the fuel system.

This sign means you must not make a U-turn at this location. It is commonly placed at intersections, highways, or curves where turning around would be unsafe or disruptive to traffic flow.

This sign indicates that parking is not allowed at any time in the area where the sign is placed. However, temporary stopping is allowed, such as dropping off or picking up passengers — as long as the driver stays with the vehicle. It helps keep traffic flowing and ensures visibility and access on busy or narrow roads.

This sign specifically prohibits large vehicles such as trucks, buses, and lorries from overtaking other vehicles on that stretch of road. It's used where overtaking by heavy vehicles could be dangerous, like on steep hills, narrow roads, or bends. Smaller vehicles may still be allowed to overtake unless another restriction applies.

The correct answer is "Turn Left at Junction".

This sign instructs drivers to make a left turn at the next intersection. They cannot go straight or turn right.

The correct answer is "End of Motorway".

This sign means the motorway is coming to an end. Get ready for normal roads ahead — there may be lower speed limits, crossings, or slower traffic.

The correct answer is "Hospital".

Indicates that a hospital is nearby. Drivers should drive quietly and carefully, especially near the entrance.
