Explanation
This multiple-choice question is designed to test the examinee's knowledge about traffic rules, safety, and potentially hazardous conditions. Each of the statements has to be evaluated separately:1. "Rocks or debris can be propelled from the tractor's large tire treads." Large vehicles such as tractors can indeed propel road debris due to the motion of its large tires.2. "You can drive close to the tractor since it is traveling under 25 mph." It’s not advisable or safe to drive too close to large moving vehicle regardless of its speed. Riding too close can lead to increased risks of, not having enough room to brake, getting into blind spots, or being hit by the rocks propelled from the tires. 3. "Tractors do not have or create large blind spots." This is a false statement. Like all large vehicles, tractors too have large blind spots. 4. "You can pass the tractor on this road if this is a dashed white line." This is generally correct as a dashed white line often indicates that passing is allowed if safe.5. "You should pass on the right shoulder to avoid an accident in the left lane if you want to pass." You should never pass on the right shoulder. This is both illegal and dangerous in many places.6. "You can pass this tractor on a dashed yellow line if no traffic is approaching from the other direction." In many areas, you can only pass a vehicle on a dashed yellow line if there are absolutely no approaching vehicles on the other side.
