Hey Basil, I recently found out that taking Driver's Ed can shorten the time you need to wait between applying for licenses. I'm taking the course now, and you guys can help me out with one of the survey/questionaire assignments. It's less than 10 questions, just copy and paste the format below, answer the questions, and press submit! Thanks! 1. What do you consider are some distractions outside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer(s): 2. What do you consider are some distractions inside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer(s): 3. What would you do when approaching a traffic light that has just turned orange (you assume the distance to the light.) ? Answer(s): 4. When driving on a highway, the space between vehicles should be 3 seconds. When should you increase the gap? Answer(s): 5. What would you say are things that other drivers do that annoy you? Answer(s):

1. People, signs, general things of interest (too much to list... just like, random things you see that get your attention I guess) 2. Radio, passengers, cell phone 3. If it's too late to stop, then keep going, but stop if you can. 4. When you increase your speed? 5. Drive too fast, tailgate, cut you off, ignore traffic signs/signals.

1. What do you consider are some distractions outside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer: pedestrians, large trucks, snow? 2. What do you consider are some distractions inside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer(s): radio, gps, cellphones etc 3. What would you do when approaching a traffic light that has just turned orange (you assume the distance to the light.) ? Answer(s): assume the distance to the light if less then 25m I would go for it... but make sure to check for any drivers making a right of left turn on the opposite side. 4. When driving on a highway, the space between vehicles should be 3 seconds. When should you increase the gap? Answer(s): fog, snow, icy conditions etc. trucks carrying overloaded cargo 5. What would you say are things that other drivers do that annoy you? Answer(s): cars changing lanes without signal lights, cars cutting people off.

1. What do you consider are some distractions outside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer(s): People walking ON THE ROAD, people that bike 2. What do you consider are some distractions inside the car (ex. trees, pedestrians)? Answer(s): Inside the car? Nothing really. 3. What would you do when approaching a traffic light that has just turned orange (you assume the distance to the light.) ? Answer(s): Yellow you mean? I would probably keep going if I were at the spot where I'm suppose to stop and If I saw the light before getting to that spot then I will stop. 4. When driving on a highway, the space between vehicles should be 3 seconds. When should you increase the gap? Answer(s): 3 seconds is good enough even at 100km. Just use gut instinct 5. What would you say are things that other drivers do that annoy you? Answer(s): People that drive really really slow

1) Advertisements and attractive people. 2) Food and electronics. 3) If the distance between your car is less than two houses and the car is going above 35 mph, run it. If not, stop. 4) Weather conditions and trucks. 5) Honking you for not left yield turn or right turn at a red light when it's not clear.

There are decent answers for the others so I'll just answer #3. If it turns yellow, check your rear view mirror. If the person directly behind you is following way to closely and it seems as though you are close enough to the light where you would have to press onthe brakes pretty hard, run it. Better to run a light then to get in an accident and possibly cause yourselves or others harm.

Alright, that should be sufficient. Thanks to everyone who posted and for people wondering, I do know the rules of the road and such. I DID mention it was a survey/questionaire.
