    Look to outer edge of the road... I learned this in drivers ed back in the 70's,,, You will still see the traffic, but will not be blinded.

    I'm wondering if I should go back tomorrow and take it again. Will it be the same questions or a new set of 50 questions?

    I'm pretty sure they have a couple different tests in rotation in the computers. So the chances of having the same test isn't too good. You'll see the same questions, as well as some new ones.

    Unless things have changed since 2000!
     
    1278PA Thanks this.

    Yeah that makes sense for them to do that. I decided to wait until Tuesday to go back. I'll study all weekend the DMV isn't open on Mondays.

    Good ole PA....the closest DMV office is about two miles from my house. They're only open on Thursday from 9-3. Not sure what good that is. I drive 35 miles north when I need their services
     
    1278PA Thanks this.

    That is what I do.

    It's been decades since I took a GK test so I cannot tell you what my answer would be other than what I do in life.

    Much of these tests are semantics and terminology. I tried to take my A without studying. Doh! I failed. Had to read over it. Then passed.
    Hardest test I ever took in driving was Hazmat. That one is tough. Had to go at it several times. I admit. Wasn't planning on using it then. Just wanted it for security aspect.
    Otherwise I usually passed without even studying. I'm a good guesser. That don't cut it in driving though.
    Good Luck next time! Am sure you'll pass.
     
    x1Heavy and 1278PA Thank this.

    There is one question in which parking brakes must hold a vehicle on any grade and conditions.

    For some stupid reason that particular question has stayed with me from day three of classroom instruction at driving school for big trucks...
