misread one regarding tailgating.
If some jackass is jaywalking why should I have to hold up traffic for them?
steady yellow...you should PREPARE to stop...not stop.

Now, if it was a 3-lane highway and you were in the middle, that would be a different story, but I have never read a DMV book which states it's OK to pass on the right on a 2-lane (in the same direction) highway.
There are exceptions, such as if someone is making a left turn, etc... however, the question was not about those exceptions, it was about passing on a highway.

90%......and NJFTL!!! Many of the drivers here shouldn't even have a license to be a passenger on a bus, let alone behind the wheel of a car.

You are correct, you should prepare to stop, not stop. That's what I put, as well, and it is the right answer.
They are wrong for impeding traffic in the passing lane, but you are wrong for passing on the right.

95%. Got #8 wrong....
8. You may pass on the right of another vehicle when:
A. When traveling on a multi-lane highway carrying two or more lanes of traffic in the same direction
B. The other vehicle is making or about to make a left turn, when a lane is provided to pass on the right
C. Both answers are correct
I answered B. Correct answer is C, which I think is BS. If the question stated it was 3 lanes or more, then I'd agree, but the question stated 2 lanes or more. That means that you can pass cars who are in the passing lane from the slow lane. That is not correct. So in my mind I got a 100% ....

<INPUT disabled type=radio value=A name=q8A> A. When traveling on a multi-lane highway carrying two or more lanes of traffic in the same direction
<INPUT disabled type=radio CHECKED value=B name=q8B> B. The other vehicle is making or about to make a left turn, when a lane is provided to pass on the right
Me too...got it wrong...I, for some reason, although we all do it, thought we're not supposed to pass on the right no matter what.
and #18...I put be prepared to stop, instead of stop if safe to do so. You think I'm from South Florida?!?! Ha ha...if you're from down here, you know what I mean.
Still 90%...not bad for not having seen stuff like this since I was 17. Ha ha.

18. When you approach a traffic signal displaying a steady yellow light, you must:
A. Go through the intersection before it turns red
B. Stop if it is safe to do so
C. Be prepared to stop
D. Slow down and proceed with caution
I picked C since it technically could be a normal traffic light with an extended yellow signal. It's about to turn red hence you need to be prepared to stop.

I got that one wrong too. I still think it should be C.

Burning Brakes
I don't think the "slow traffic keep right" and "left lane for passing only" rules are universal. Either way, neither of these makes passing on the right illegal, they make dawdling in the left lane illegal.
Plus, no passing on the right is IMPOSSIBLE to enforce. Example: a car passes you on the left, then slams on the brakes just as it gets ahead of you. Guess what? You pass the car on the right. In heavy rush hour traffic, various lanes slow down and speed up. Every time the left lane comes to stop or slows to a crawl because of traffic, everyone in the next lane is passing on the right.

Plus, tickets have been issued for this violation under a variety of circumstances. Whether you're found guilty or not is another issue... but you can get tickets for it.

O.K poorly worded on my part! I should have said: Most people know the proper rules/laws but many don't follow them anyway. I'll admit, I speed even though I know the speed limit. Knock wood but I've never had a moving violation in 23 years of driving either. I just try to make sure there are others around me going faster than me while speeding!
