Sample road signs questions
You come to a red eight-sided sign and a pedestrian is crossing in front of you in an unmarked crosswalk. What must you do?
- A Stop completely and stay stopped while the pedestrian crosses
- B Stop briefly, then go once you have yielded to other cars
- C Stop only if the crosswalk is marked with painted lines
- D Slow down and continue if the pedestrian is not in your lane yet
Show answer
A. Stop completely and stay stopped while the pedestrian crosses
A stop sign means a complete stop. You must also yield to other vehicles and stay stopped for anyone crossing in a marked or unmarked crosswalk, then go only when it is safe.
A white sign under a stop sign reads "Right Turn Permitted Without Stopping." What does it mean for you if you are going straight?
- A You may proceed straight after slowing, the same as at a yield sign
- B Everyone at that stop sign may roll through without stopping
- C The stop sign is no longer in force at certain hours
- D Stop and yield; only right-turning traffic may skip the stop
Show answer
D. Stop and yield; only right-turning traffic may skip the stop
This plaque lets right-turning traffic turn without stopping. Every other driver at that stop sign, including those going straight or turning left, must still stop and yield.
A lane sign reads "HOV 2+" and the lane has a white diamond painted on it. Who may use the lane while the restriction is in effect?
- A Only drivers who plan to exit within two miles
- B Vehicles carrying three or more people
- C Vehicles carrying at least two people
- D Only buses and other public transit vehicles
Show answer
C. Vehicles carrying at least two people
A High Occupancy Vehicle lane is reserved for vehicles carrying at least the number of people shown on the sign. A white diamond on the pavement is another way these lanes are marked.
You pass a "SAFETY CORRIDOR" sign on an Oregon highway. What does Oregon ask you to do there?
- A Lower your speed by 10 mph below the limit
- B Use the left lane only for passing
- C Keep your hazard lights flashing
- D Turn on your lights for safety
Show answer
D. Turn on your lights for safety
Safety corridors are stretches of Oregon highway with more fatal and serious injury crashes than the statewide average. Turning on your lights makes you easier to see and helps lower that risk.
