Rev Up for the Arkansas CDL 2025 – Drive Your Future Forward!

Question: 1 / 400

If tailgated, which of the following should you avoid doing?

Turning on your taillights

Flashing your brake lights

Both A and B

In situations where you are being tailgated, it is important to maintain safety and avoid actions that could lead to further issues. Turning on your taillights or flashing your brake lights can signal to the driver behind you that you are slowing down or stopping, which might provoke an aggressive reaction from the tailgater, potentially leading to a dangerous situation.

Speeding up might seem like a way to get away from the tailgater, but it can also escalate the situation by encouraging the tailgater to speed up as well, which can be reckless and dangerous.

By avoiding both turning on your taillights and flashing your brake lights, as well as not speeding up, you can help prevent an increase in tension and promote a safer driving environment. Therefore, the correct response is to be cautious about these actions when tailgated.
