Correct!

Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.

Correct answer to question 64 (Combination Vehicles): Bridges and overpasses can freeze before the rest of the road because cold air circulates both above and below the surface

Why

Because air passes both above and below a bridge deck, it loses heat faster than a road surface sitting on the ground, so ice can form there while the rest of the highway still looks wet.
