📖 Topic overview
This is the largest section on the exam and covers everything from following distance and reaction time to Arizona-specific weather hazards. Allow at least a 3-second following distance normally, and double it to 6 seconds or more on slippery roads or in rain, snow, or ice. Special attention goes to dust storms — if visibility drops to zero, remember 'Pull Aside, Stay Alive': slow down immediately, pull completely off the highway, turn off your lights, and wait with your seat belt on.
This section also covers impairment and its consequences — alcohol/drug impairment, the DUI framework (0.08 standard limit, 0.15 for Extreme DUI, zero tolerance for any trace under 21), and the point system tied to suspension/revocation. A single DUI, Reckless Driving, or Aggressive Driving conviction is worth 8 points, and accumulating 8 or more points in 12 months requires Traffic Survival School.
A common mistake is confusing suspension (a temporary removal of driving privilege) with revocation (which ends only after the period passes AND an investigation confirms statutory requirements are met). It's also easy to underestimate how many everyday situations trigger automatic suspension — providing alcohol to a minor, refusing a chemical test, and aggressive driving all carry their own suspension periods.
What should a driver do during a dust storm with zero visibility?
Follow 'Pull Aside, Stay Alive': immediately slow down, drive completely off the highway, stop as far to the right as possible, turn off your lights, take your foot off the brake, and stay in the vehicle with seat belts buckled until the storm passes.
What BAC triggers Extreme DUI, and how does it differ from standard DUI?
The standard legal limit is 0.08, but Extreme DUI applies at 0.15 or higher and carries harsher mandatory penalties — at least 30 days in jail and a higher minimum fine even on a first offense.
How many points within 12 months requires Traffic Survival School?
Accumulating 8 or more points within any 12-month period requires attending Traffic Survival School, or your driving privilege may be suspended; a single DUI conviction alone equals 8 points.
