Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
At night, blue lights come on behind you. You signal and pull onto the shoulder as soon as it is safe. What should you do next?
Correct answer: Turn off the engine and radio, turn on the interior light, and keep your hands on the wheel
Why
These steps keep you, your passengers and the officer safe. Ask passengers to stay calm, keep their belts on and keep their hands in view, and do not use phones during the stop. If you have a weapon in the vehicle, tell the officer at the first contact. In South Carolina you do not have to sign a traffic ticket, and acceptance of a ticket is not an admission of guilt.
