Recently, I’ve been troubled, triggered even, by a number of drivers doing stupid things. Like putting their blinker on as they begin their turn, changing lanes without signaling and, my big pet peeve, not having headlights on when they’re needed!
I can’t tell you how many times I’m driving along busy Route 3, post-dusk, and see oncoming cars with NO HEADLIGHTS ON! Often times, flashing my lights toward them doesn’t even help! Where are the cops when you need them, right? I also see this on very foggy days! A car will appear out of the mist with no lights! NOT SAFE!
So, what are the rules? Well, you’re in luck.
Your buddy Jon has found a Maine Driver’s Permit test that you can take as practice. Personally (and I don’t consider myself a great driver) I did very well. Some of the answer choices actually made me laugh…yet I’m sure there will be folks who choose those “funny” answers thinking they’re correct.
Here’s the test…feedback is instant so you won’t have to wait. Good luck!! 🙂
Although the following video is several years old and some laws may have been added of changed, for new drivers, it is a very good resource for learning the basic rules of Maine roadways.
