What is the duration of the way red before the green light of the traffic lights?

Asked by Wiki User

Okay, you're talking about the delay when the light turns red for one direction and then turns green for another direction. My guess would be that it would be to ensure that the intersection is clear before another direction of travel is given the green.

Do 18 year olds have to wear a seat belt?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Nobody has to wear a seatbelt, but their are consequences to that decision.

Every state in America has a seatbelt law which requires every person in the vehicle to wear a seatbelt or they could get a ticket.

Another consequence is that you could die from even the smallest of fender benders if not properly strapped in.

Try this if you dare (and if you're really stupid): Run at a brick wall as fast as you can (about 7 miles per hour) and try to stop yourself with your arms. That's what it's going to be like if you hit another car going just 7 MPH. Now try to imaging hitting something at a whopping 25 MPH?

Wear your seatbelts!

How often should you get your car serviced?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Car servicing frequency depends on factors like the vehicle's age, mileage, and manufacturer recommendations. Generally, newer cars might need service every 10,000 to 15,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. For older vehicles or those with higher mileage, more frequent servicing may be necessary. Regular maintenance includes oil changes, fluid checks, tire rotations, and inspections of brakes, belts, and filters. Following the manufacturer's car service schedule ensures optimal performance, longevity, and safety for your vehicle.

Having one drink may impair your driving?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Unless you have a very light bodyweight or a very poor alcohol tolerance its unlikely, however dont try it. Any drinking and then driving is just plain stupid, and a bad habit. Plus if you get pulled over it doesnt matter if you had a sip or a 12 pack, the cop will still smell it on your breath and then you have a really big problem.

Yes. Generally the legal limit is a blood alcohol content of .08, which is less than one drink. In Connecticut even if you are below that limit you may still be charged-- bu rather than 'driving while intoxicated', the charge will be 'driving under the influence'.

Right of way in a particular situation what should you do?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Generally, when you have the right-of-way, take it! (But don't get in an accident just to assert your rights.)

Some people like to "wave" others ahead, out of turn, thinking this is courteous. In fact, this practice is confusing, inefficient, and dangerous. Courteous people do what they are supposed to do. Driving is safe when all vehicles move in predictable ways. So drive predictably, following the rules established rules and customs. When it's your turn to go, then go!
