When is the best time to use a three-point turnabout?
A: When you are in heavy traffic
B: When you are on a one way street
C: when empty driveways are available
D: When there is no other option****
Use perpendicular parking to park?
A: diagonally to the curb
B:parallel to the curb
C:at a right angle to the curb***
D: at a 45 degree angle to the curb
When parallel parking on the right, turn the wheels sharply to the left when?
A: your vehicle is centered in the space
B: your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper****
For the first question the book has a lot of things saying with driveways, etc....but I can not see a driveway always being available to use...so I'm thinking only do the 3 point turnabout when you have no other option.....
Thank you for your help...:o)

If the order changes
•Backing a vehicle requires skillful use of the BRAKE PEDAL
•Which lane should you be in to begin a left turn from a two-way street THE LANE CLOSEST TO THE CENTER LINE
•Angle parking begins with your vehicle AT LEAST SIX FEET FROM A ROW OF PARKED VEHICLES
•Use perpendicular parking to park AT A RIGHT ANGLE TO THE CURB
•When backing you should USE MIRRORS TO SUPPLEMENT LOOKING OUT THE REAR WINDOW
•When is the best time to use a three point turnabout WHEN THERE IS NO OTHER OPTION
•When parallel parking on the right, turn the wheels sharply to the left when YOUR FRONT BUMPER IS EVEN WITH THE FRONT VEHICLES REAR BUMPER
•Which mirror type gives a wider view than a flat surface mirror of the side and rear of your vehicle CONVEX MIRROR
•When you need your vehicle to go in the opposite direction of its current path you perform A TURNABOUT
•When parking downhill with the curb to the right of the vehicle TURN THE FRONT WHEELS TO THE RIGHT
I agree with your answer. When there is no driveway to turn around in, the 3-point is the only option, aside from going around the block (which would be preferable).
You're correct on the second question. I think you should turn the wheels to the left if you're on a hill, otherwise, when you're centered in the space. But if your text or manual says when the bumpers are even, that's "correct".
Thank you very much Reed...You were very helpful to me.
The parallel parking answer was...
B: your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper. :o)
thank you anonymous!!!
Well, I must say, the best time to use a three-point turnabout is when the unicorns are tap dancing on rainbows! But in all seriousness, the correct answer here is D: When there is no other option. You could always try doing a three-point turnabout in heavy traffic, but I assure you, it won't make you very popular with the other drivers. And using it on a one-way street might just confuse everyone, including yourself. So, unless you're in a parade and have a clown car handy, no other option it is!
Now, let's talk about perpendicular parking. The best way to park is obviously by summoning a magical parking spot that appears out of thin air. But if that's not an option, the answer is C: At a right angle to the curb. Parking diagonally might make you look like you're trying to do some funky dance move, and parking parallel is for those who like to keep things in line. But parking at a right angle is like saying, "Look at me, I'm rebelliously parked!"
Lastly, when parallel parking on the right, you should turn the wheels sharply to the left when your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper. This way, you can make a stylish entrance without bumping into anyone's bumpers. Remember, it's all about finesse and making a good impression.
When determining the best time to use a three-point turnabout, it is important to consider the given options and analyze each one:
A: When you are in heavy traffic - While it may be tempting to use a three-point turnabout in heavy traffic to change your direction, this is not recommended. Performing a three-point turnabout in heavy traffic can be dangerous and may disrupt the flow of traffic.
B: When you are on a one-way street - If you find yourself on a one-way street and need to turn around, a three-point turnabout may not be necessary. Instead, you can proceed to the nearest intersection and make a legal U-turn if allowed.
C: When empty driveways are available - While empty driveways can provide an ideal space to execute a three-point turnabout, they may not always be readily available. It is important to consider other factors such as visibility, space, and safety before attempting a three-point turnabout.
D: When there is no other option - This option is the most appropriate answer. A three-point turnabout should only be performed when there are no other viable options available. This can include situations where the driver is on a narrow road with limited space, or when there are physical restrictions preventing other turning maneuvers.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: When there is no other option.
Regarding the second question about perpendicular parking, let's examine the options:
A: diagonally to the curb - Perpendicular parking refers to parking at a right angle to the curb. This means that the vehicle should be parallel to the other parked vehicles.
B: parallel to the curb - Parallel parking involves parking a vehicle parallel to the curb, not perpendicular to it. This is not the correct option.
C: at a right angle to the curb - This is the correct answer. Perpendicular parking implies parking the vehicle at a right angle to the curb, creating a 90-degree angle between the vehicle and the curb.
D: at a 45-degree angle to the curb - Parking at a 45-degree angle to the curb is known as angle parking, not perpendicular parking.
Therefore, the correct answer is C: at a right angle to the curb.
Lastly, for parallel parking on the right, let's consider the options provided:
A: your vehicle is centered in the space - This is not the correct option. Turning the wheels sharply to the left is done before reversing into the parallel parking space, not when the vehicle is centered.
B: your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper - This is the correct answer. When parallel parking on the right, you should turn the wheels sharply to the left when your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper. This allows your vehicle to maneuver into the parking space efficiently.
Therefore, the correct answer is B: your front bumper is even with the front vehicle's rear bumper.
I hope this explanation clears up any confusion you had. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
