  1. Tanong 1 ng 25

    Compared with other combinations, how likely are doubles and triples to turn over?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: D. More likely

    Doubles and triples are more likely to turn over than other combination vehicles.

  2. Tanong 2 ng 25

    Which trailer in a double or triple is most likely to turn over?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: D. The last trailer

    Because of the crack-the-whip effect, the last trailer is the most likely to turn over.

  3. Tanong 3 ng 25

    Compared with a five-axle tractor-semitrailer, how much more easily can the last trailer of a triple roll over?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. About 3.5 times as easily

    Triples have the highest rearward amplification. The last trailer can roll about 3.5 times as easily.

  4. Tanong 4 ng 25

    A speed that is safe for a single trailer on a curve is not always safe for doubles. Why?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: D. Doubles and triples roll over more easily

    A speed that is fine for a straight truck or single trailer may be too fast for doubles or triples.

  5. Tanong 5 ng 25

    What is the crack-the-whip effect?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: D. A quick steering move swings the rear trailer much more

    Sudden steering is amplified toward the back of the rig. This rearward amplification can tip over the last trailer.

  6. Tanong 6 ng 25

    Why do doubles and triples need extra care in the pre-trip inspection?
    12345678
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: C. They have more critical parts to check

    With two or three trailers, there are more parts that must be checked.

  7. Tanong 7 ng 25

    Why should you look far ahead when pulling doubles or triples?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: C. So you can slow down or change lanes gradually

    Drive very smoothly to avoid rollover or jackknife. Looking far ahead gives you time for gradual changes.

  8. Tanong 8 ng 25

    How should your following distance compare when pulling doubles or triples?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. Allow more following distance

    Doubles and triples are longer and cannot turn or stop suddenly, so leave more space ahead.

  9. Tanong 9 ng 25

    Why are doubles and triples more likely to skid in bad weather?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: B. Greater length and more dead axles mean less traction

    Be especially careful on slippery roads and in mountains. Length and extra axles raise the risk of skids.

  10. Tanong 10 ng 25

    What should you avoid when parking doubles or triples?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. A spot you cannot pull straight out of
