The road has a double solid yellow center line. May you cross it to turn left into a driveway?
- A Yes, and oncoming traffic must yield to you
- B Yes, after waiting for oncoming traffic to clear
- C No, double solid yellow lines may never be crossed
- D Only if a sign says left turns are allowed
Show answer
B. Yes, after waiting for oncoming traffic to clear
Double solid yellow lines mean no passing in either direction. You may still cross them to turn left into or out of a road or driveway once oncoming traffic has cleared.
You are driving on a two-way road that has no center line. How much of the road must you give oncoming traffic?
- A All of the road; you must pull onto the shoulder
- B At least one-third of the road
- C At least half of the road
- D Whatever space is left after you take the smoother side
Show answer
C. At least half of the road
When a road has no center line, each driver must give at least half the road to oncoming traffic. If you must cross over to avoid a hazard, yield to oncoming traffic first.

How should you enter a freeway from an on-ramp?
- A Slow down and let freeway traffic make room for you
- B Speed up on the ramp to match traffic, then merge
- C Stop at the end of the ramp and wait for a large gap
- D Turn on your hazard lights and merge slowly
Show answer
B. Speed up on the ramp to match traffic, then merge
Entering a freeway is the opposite of entering most roads: use the ramp to speed up to the flow of traffic. You must still yield to vehicles already on the freeway and check mirrors and blind spots.
Who must wear a safety belt in Oregon?
- A Only passengers under 18
- B Only people on highways over 45 mph
- C Only the driver and front-seat passenger
- D The driver and all passengers in every seating position
Show answer
D. The driver and all passengers in every seating position
Oregon requires safety belts for all drivers and passengers in every available seating position. Wear the belt snug, with no slack, and never put the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

You want to turn left and the signal shows a flashing yellow arrow. What does it mean?
- A Left turns are closed until the arrow turns green
- B You have the right of way and oncoming traffic is stopped
- C You may turn, but first yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians
- D The arrow is about to turn red, so you should stop if you safely can
Show answer
C. You may turn, but first yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians
A flashing yellow arrow allows the turn shown, but you do not have the right of way. Oncoming traffic has a steady green, so wait for a safe gap and for pedestrians to clear.
