Quiz 1: Essay
1. Vehicular Traffic Accident (VTA) is very common in our
place. As a member of this locality, what would you suggest,
as the best way to prevent and eventually eradicate this
type of accident? Justify.
 Pull into traffic slowly. Stop, Look, Listen. Be aware of

blind spots, including those in rear view mirrors and behind
windshield pillars or highway road signs. Also, when at an
intersection making a right-hand turn, look both directions
at least twice before proceeding. Vehicles can appear almost
out of nowhere very quickly, so exercise caution when
pulling into a busy intersection.
 Watch for red light runners. Count to three before entering
an intersection on a green light. Look both ways and be sure
no one is trying to speed through a yellow light. Exercise
caution when passing semis. Truck drivers have a large blind
spot on their right-hand side, so be especially careful when
driving next to an 18-wheeler. If you cannot see the
truck''s side mirrors, the truck driver cannot see you.
 Keep at least one hand on the steering wheel. Reduce in-car
distractions such as changing radio stations or CDs, cell
phones, eating or momentarily taking a hand off the wheel. A
gust of wind, pothole or a blown tire could send the vehicle
into another lane and cause a serious accident.
 Watch for kids. Children and animals have a habit of
suddenly popping out from between parked cars and into
roadways. If you are driving in a residential neighborhood
with kids present, watch carefully and slow down.
 Perform engine maintenance regularly. Avoid sudden stalls or
other vehicle failure by changing the oil regularly and
keeping tires properly inflated.
 Scan 12 seconds ahead. Always concentrate on the area where
you will be driving in 10-12 seconds. For highway driving,
keep positioned far enough from other cars so if someone
were to suddenly stop or swerve, you could avoid them.
 Look backwards when backing out. Fender benders in parking
lots are all too common, so look out for cars leaving
parking spaces. Don''t depend on mirrors alone -- physically
look over your right shoulder while steering to alleviate
blind spots mirrors can create.
 Do not tailgate. Leave a three-second cushion between you
and the car in front of you and begin your journey early
enough so you don''t speed to make up time. As tempting as
it may be when in a hurry, tailgating is a major cause of
accidents.
 Be courteous to other drivers. No one owns the roads, so
treat others with respect and report any suspicious driving
activity to authorities.
Quiz II: Identification

__________________1. It refers to those which present continuing
danger to other road users.
__________________2. It is a stationary observation in which the
observer is in full view of traffic conditions
__________________3. This refers to the observation of road
conditions, the behavior of drivers and other users of vehicles
for the purpose of traffic supervision and law enforcement.
__________________4. It is a term commonly applied to a traffic

accident in which a driver fails to comply with any of the duties
requires as stopping, giving aid and revealing identity.
__________________5. It is an enforcement action which consists

of taking a person into custody for the purpose of holding or
detaining him to answer for a law violation charge before court.
Quiz III: Essay
1. In what possible situations where an officer may decline to

conduct pursuit to a traffic offender or violator?
 CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
The reasons an officer initiates a pursuit are important, but

those reasons may change. The officer may have observed a minor
traffic violation, tried to make a stop, and had the driver take
off. His department policies might not justify a pursuit under
those circumstances. However, what if he then learns the vehicle
is stolen, or is wanted in connection with a violent crime? It
may take a minute or so to get a return on a wants check for the
license plate. Until that information is in hand, it may be
permissible to allow the pursuit to continue. If the officer did
not pursue, and later found he had someone on the Ten Most Wanted
List in front of him, the department could be embarrassed.
That situation can work in reverse, too. An officer might

initiate a stop based on the description of a vehicle used in a
crime, then find the wanted vehicle has already been located. If
there aren’t any other justifications for the pursuit, it might
be best to terminate the chase.

in Tabuk City. Define them and give penalties of such violations.
