In case of an accident — Mississippi Permit Test

On the test
You are involved in an accident. What is the first thing to do?
Stop at once and help the injured. Leaving the scene can mean an injured person gets no help in time. Mississippi Driver's License Manual, p.66: “Stop at once and help anyone who has been injured.”
How this works
Most practice tests hand you a bank of questions and leave the manual somewhere else. This one puts them together.
You read one law and the reason behind it, then answer a question on that law while it is still fresh. Get it right and you move on; get it wrong and you have found the gap while it is cheap to fix, not on the morning of the exam.
Learning one rule at a time, and proving it immediately, is what turns a manual you skimmed into something you actually know — and it makes studying feel like getting somewhere rather than like waiting to find out.
