Answers to Quiz

1. "B" - According to a report by the National Commission on Sleep Disorders Research, drowsy drivers cause more fatalities per accident than drunken drivers.

The most common times of the day for driver fatigue are the middle of the night (no surprise there) and between 2 and 5 PM. If you're tired, put down that steering wheel. Don't try drinking coffee, opening the window, or blasting music. Research shows that while those may give you a boost of energy, they do not minimize the risk of driving while drowsy.

 

2. "C" - The first rain after a dry spell.

 

3. "D" - No wonder parents spend so much time worrying about their teenagers. They're among the least likely people to wear seat belts. But they're not the only ones. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that young males, pickup truck drivers and young males are also major offenders.

 

4. "A" -  If you lease or are making payments on a car, the car's owner (usually the dealership) may require that you have collision or theft insurance. But if you own your car outright, the only type of insurance that's required by law is liability.

 

5. "C" - Sports utility vehicles, trucks, and vans are the most likely to roll over in an accident. This increased susceptibility to rolling over is due largely to the higher height of the center of gravity of these vehicles, reports the AAA Foundation.
