Blue car is westbound talking/texting on the cell phone and hovering over the yellow line when the black car appears eastbound:

a-blue car should cradle the phone with her shoulder in order to keep talking and stand her ground on the yellow line
b-driver of the blue car should put down the cell phone and get back in her own lane
c-the driver should not change phone habits and should cross further into the oncoming traffic lane and force the black car out of the lane (often resulting in being in the shoulder) (part “c” was only coincidentally labeled “c”)

question nine

driving09

Pedestrians are crossing the street when the red car from the west and the purple car from the north are approaching:

a-the purple car and the red car should both stop at the stop signs and wait for the pedestrians to finish crossing the street, then proceed, in turn through the intersection
b-Red car should roll through the intersection before the pedestrians have a chance to get all the way across, and the purple car should stop at the stop sign and wait for the intersection to clear

question ten

driving10

Three cars approach the intersection, a green car from the west, a dark blue car from the south, and a lighter blue car from the north (in that order); the darker blue car is turning left:

a-the green car should wave on the dark blue car because it is on the right and the lighter blue car is going straight so it should go ahead and go through the intersection so the dark blue car can turn left, and then the green car may proceed
b-the darker blue car should go first because it is to the right of the other cars in the intersection, then the green car, then the lighter blue car
c-the green car should go first because it arrived first, the dark blue car second and the lighter blue car third

b-the red car should honk the horn and flash its lights while gesturing angrily
c-the black car should slow down to 25 mph and hope that the oncoming traffic keeps up and force the red car to slow down
