Try a Police Quiz on Winter Driving

[RegMolehusband]

You may not agree with some of the answers however (I say that because I got a miserable 6/10)

PLEASE NOTE the programming behind the quiz appears to be rubbish, it doesn't work too well.

7 out of 10 not too bad. Do people get paid to think of 'wrong answers' to put in?


What represents the best advice for moving off on a snowy surface?

One of the answers- Ask two or three heavy people to sit above your vehicle’s front axle as you move off

Was it just me or did it skip questions for anyone else and fill in the answers for you on the rest?

[Strangely Brown]

It didn't represent the answers that I gave accurately. I got 9/10 for what I did actually answer.

Well, it only let me answer from Q4 onwards and i was given someone elses answers on my feedback at the end, most bizarre!

Agree with most of the correct answers however.

[whitechief]

Didn't work at all for me, four of the questions weren't there and the 'answers' were not what I had selected.

yeah load of crap.

It also took my answers wrong, I answered C for one q but was D on the results!

Yes, and when I did it the second time, it told me different correct answers from the first time! Bizarre indeedy.

[kambites]

It only asked me seven questions, but I got them all right.

The answers I got at the end beared no relation to the answers I actually gave in the quiz.

Yes, only answered one and got 6/10!

Same here, I took the quiz, it started at question 8 out of 10, yet I somehow managed to get 5 out of 10 correct? Officially fked IMHO.

[Gareth79]

Looks like the server is handing out already existing sessions so you end up in the middle of somebody else's quiz.

8/10 here, and I went through all 10 questions.

Good wee quiz.

Q - "If you put snow chains on the rear wheels of a front wheel drive vehicle, what are you likely to notice?"
A - "The correct answer was seriously reduced braking and acceleration. The braking and acceleration will be seriously reduced because there will be no traction to the driving axle."

Er... no, the seriously reduced tracion at the fornt is due to the snow not the fact you've put chains on the rear.

[thetapeworm]

It started me on question 10, I got that one right and scored 10/10 so thanks to whoever got the other 9 right.

No, the correct answer was severely reduced lateral stability. At least that's what I said and it told me I was right.

Me thinks the website is a bit broken.

It's very badly phrased.

It comes across a little confising - "If you put snow chains on the rear wheels of a front wheel drive vehicle, what are you likely to notice?"

It doesn't say anything about chains being on the front wheels, if I put snow chains on the rear wheels of a front wheel drive car I am likey no notice very little difference to no snow chains actually.
