That the vehicle does not follow the steering input but continues straight ahead

The rear wheels breaking away

All wheels locking

5 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

Your vehicle is equipped with electronic stability control. How will you behave if your vehicle starts to understeer?

I brake

I disengage the clutch

I give light throttle

I steer according to the curve progression

6 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving a small truck here. How do you behave?

I let the vehicle roll in neutral

If I have overloaded the brakes and the braking effect decreases, I stop to let the brakes cool down

I shift to the highest possible gear and continuously brake

I select a gear where the engine braking effect alone is sufficient to maintain the desired speed

7 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving your car here. How do you behave?

I drive on the left edge of the road

I drive at half visibility distance

I brake before the curve so as not to slide to the right edge of the road

I drive on the far right onto the shoulder

8 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving a car here. What dangers exist if you drive too fast for the situation here?

The tires could be damaged

The vehicle could become uncontrollable if it starts to slip

The vehicle could start to slip despite having stability control

The engine cooling could freeze

9 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving a small truck here. How can you tell that the engine braking effect is sufficient?

When the brake warning light stays off

When the vehicle gets faster and faster

When the speed remains approximately constant without me having to brake

When I have to continuously brake slightly

10 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving your car here. How do you behave?

I expect icy road conditions in shaded areas

As long as the road is adequately cleared and gritted, I can continue without snow chains

I drive in 1st gear

I must definitely mount snow chains on all wheels

11 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

What do you understand by "oversteer" of a motor vehicle?

That the vehicle does not follow the steering input but continues straight ahead

All wheels locking

The vehicle tipping over

The rear wheels breaking away

12 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving at about 100 km/h. What dangers can occur here when overtaking?

The truck in front of me could skid

I could skid

The braking distance becomes unpredictably long

Risk of aquaplaning

13 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving at about 100 km/h. How do you behave?

I hold the steering wheel firmly with both hands

I will quickly overtake the truck and then merge right

I will carefully accelerate and change to the left lane

I stay in this lane, brake and do not overtake

14 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

You are driving a small truck. How do you take this into account when driving?

I choose the driving line closer to the center of the road than with a car

I drive slower in strong crosswinds than with a car

I drive slower in curves than with a car

I drive faster on a steep descent than with a car

15 / 15

Category: Class B -5- Driving Dynamics, Braking System - Level 1

How do you behave in this traffic situation?

I continue in 1st gear

I drive at hazard visibility distance

I must definitely mount snow chains on all four wheels here

As long as the road is adequately cleared and gritted, I can continue without snow chains
