LOUISIANA CDL AIR BRAKES PRACTICE TEST

6. If you get stuck on railroad tracks, you should:
have a helper push your vehicle.
stay in the vehicle and call for help.
get out of the vehicle and away from the tracks.
check the engine compartment quickly.
7. How can you tell if your vehicle is equipped with ABS?
Trailers will have yellow ABS malfunction lamps on the left side.
Look for yellow ABS malfunction lamps on the instrument panel.
Look under the vehicle for the wheel speed sensor wires coming from the back of the brakes.
All of the above.
8. The s-cam:
forces the brake shoes away from one another and presses them against the inside of the brake drum.
pulls the brake shoes away from the drum.
helps ensure that air flows to all trailers.
All of the above.
9. After starting the engine, oil pressure should rise to a normal level:
within 2 minutes.
within seconds.
within 6 minutes.
within 3 miles.
10. What is an important thing to remember about emergency braking?
Your natural response (hitting the brakes) is never the right solution.
The more heavily loaded semitrailer trailer should be in the rear.
Pushing down on the brake pedal as hard as you can will only keep the wheels locked up and cause a skid.
You should never use stab braking.
