32
What should a driver do immediately if their vehicle begins to aquaplane?
Ease off the accelerator smoothly, maintain a steady straight steering wheel, and avoid sudden hard braking.
33
How does doubling your driving speed affect the vehicle's braking distance?
Braking distance quadruples (multiplies by four), since kinetic energy increases with the square of speed.
34
What is the primary function of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)?
To prevent wheels from locking during emergency braking, maintaining driver steering control.
35
How should a driver brake in an emergency in an ABS-equipped vehicle?
Depress the brake pedal hard and firmly without releasing or pumping it until the vehicle stops completely.
36
What is brake fade, and what typically causes it?
Loss of braking power caused by excessive heat buildup in brake pads and fluid during prolonged downhill braking.
37
How should a driver prevent brake fade when descending steep, long mountain passes in Albania?
Shift into a lower gear to use engine braking and brake intermittently rather than riding the pedal.
38
Why is brake fluid described as hygroscopic, and why is that dangerous?
It absorbs atmospheric moisture, which lowers its boiling point and can lead to sudden vapor lock failure.
39
What is the danger of running a car engine inside a closed private garage?
Accumulation of colourless, odourless, highly lethal carbon monoxide gas in the enclosed air.
40
What does an active illuminated red battery symbol on the dashboard indicate?

What does an active illuminated red oil can symbol on the dashboard indicate?
Critically low engine oil pressure; stop the vehicle and shut off the engine immediately to avoid destruction.
42
What does an active illuminated red temperature icon or gauge in the red zone signify?
Engine coolant overheating; stop safely, switch off the motor, and let the engine cool down completely.
43
Why must you never open the radiator cap or expansion tank when an engine is overheating?
Pressurised boiling coolant and superheated steam will erupt violently, causing severe scald injuries.
44
What does excessive free play in the steering wheel indicate?
Mechanical wear or looseness in steering tie-rod ball joints, steering rack, or linkage components.
45
What is the primary danger when driving over bridge decks during freezing or near-freezing temperatures?
Invisible black ice forms much earlier on bridges because cold air circulates both above and below the deck.
46
What is the first step in first aid when arriving at the scene of a severe road traffic collision?
Secure the accident scene to prevent secondary collisions, don your safety vest, and call 112.
47
Under what condition should an injured road accident casualty NOT be moved from a vehicle?
When spinal or neck injuries are suspected, unless there is an imminent danger of fire or explosion.
48
What is the primary immediate treatment for severe external arterial bleeding in a road casualty?
Apply firm direct pressure over the wound using a clean sterile dressing or clean cloth.
49
What is the purpose of placing an unconscious breathing casualty in the recovery position?
To keep the airway open and prevent choking on vomit or the tongue falling back into the throat.
50
What is the standard ratio of chest compressions to rescue breaths during adult CPR?
30 chest compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths at a depth of 5 to 6 cm and rate of 100-120 per minute.
51
What should be done for a casualty suffering from severe traumatic shock?
Lay the casualty flat, elevate their legs above heart level, keep them warm with blankets, and do not give fluids.
52
What is the safest way to extinguish a small electrical or engine fire under the vehicle bonnet?
Switch off the ignition, crack the hood slightly, and discharge a portable dry powder extinguisher through the gap.
