Which of the following is the most reliable method for someone who has consumed alcohol to regain sobriety?
The passage of time
Drinking several glasses of water
Drinking one cup of coffee per serving of alcohol you consume
Taking a brisk walk
Explanation

Which of the following is the most common cause of tire fires?
Tires that are insufficiently inflated
Tires that are over-inflated
Tires that are made with a deficient grade of rubber
None of these
Explanation
Under-inflated tires are the single most common cause of tire fires, especially for heavy and commercial vehicles. Over-inflated tires, while posing obvious safety concerns, do not pose as great a risk for fires specifically as do under inflated tires.
