CDL Practice Question #447

Passenger fatalities are most often caused by:

Single-vehicle rollovers and collisions; speed and seat belts (where required) are common factors
Mechanical failure
Bad weather only
Cargo

Correct. Single-vehicle rollover and head-on/angle collisions account for most passenger fatalities. Speed control and where applicable, seatbelt use, reduce risk.

Why this question matters

This question is one of 58 in our Passenger bank. The reasoning above comes directly from the AAMVA CDL Manual, the source document used by every U.S. state DMV. Memorizing the underlying rule — not just the letter answer — is what separates passing on the first attempt from a return trip and another fee.
