Educational difficulty is separate from the legal penalty. These are original practice questions, not official examination items.

Lesson

Anticipating traffic helps avoid unnecessary acceleration and hard braking.

Remove an unused roof rack to reduce aerodynamic drag and fuel use.

Look well ahead and plan a safe escape space.

In fog, reduce speed and use appropriate lights rather than relying on the vehicle ahead.

Respecting tyre-pressure recommendations helps safety and efficient fuel use.
