  2. Hi. The site is great! Thank you for starting it. Some of the answers aren't visible when I hover over them, however. Is there another way to view them?
    Thanks again. I know people really appreciate it.

  3. Hi - some posts use an older pop-up tool, which delays then shows the answer for 5 seconds. I'm still converting the remaining older answers to the new tooltip (which shows the answer as long your mouse is over it.) I'm glad the site is useful - visit often! And good luck on exams!

A. 8 feet B. 9 feet C. 11 feet D. 12 feet Answer C. 11 feet. At 1.5-2 times the car depth (5'4), this could be a range, but 10 feet is a minimum for groups of 4 or more. Therefore C is the best choice. ARE 4.0 exam prep: BDCS
