Explanation:

Question 1

When vision is severely limited in heavy rain and no rest stop is available, pulling over to the side (safely) is best to avoid danger. Driving slower or using flashers while driving is less safe than pulling over.

Trucks, due to their weight and braking systems, are more prone to brake loss on downhill roads (brake fade from overheating is common with heavy loads). Motorcycles and passenger cars have less severe brake loss issues in this context.

Glare (from headlights, etc.), narrower side vision (due to darkness), and impaired drivers (e.g., tired, intoxicated) all increase night - driving risk. So all options apply.

Answer:

c. Pull over to the side of the road.
