Delaware DMV Permit: Right-of-Way Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is stop before the line

At an intersection, a single solid white line across the road is a stop line. You must stop before the stop line for a traffic signal or sign.

Not quite. The answer is Come to a complete stop and yield to traffic before proceeding.

The stop sign is the only octagonal (eight-sided) traffic sign. At a stop sign, you must stop before the stop line, crosswalk, or intersection, whichever you arrive at first. Then yield to pedestrians and other vehicles, and proceed only when the intersection is clear.

Not quite. The answer is the right lane.

In a multilane roundabout, do not pass any vehicle. Be prepared to yield to vehicles turning in front of you from the inside lane to exit the roundabout. If you intend to exit the roundabout less than halfway around it, use the right lane.

Not quite. The answer is The pedestrian

A vehicle must yield to pedestrians in a marked or unmarked crosswalk. And at an uncontrolled intersection (i.e., one without signs or signals), each vehicle must yield to the one on its right. Therefore, Car A must yield to Car B, Car B must yield to Car C, and Car C must yield to the pedestrian.

Not quite. The answer is You must come to a complete stop.

When you encounter a stop sign, you must come to a complete stop before the stop line, crosswalk, or intersection, whichever you encounter first. Drivers sometimes fail to come to a complete stop at stop signs; instead, they crawl forward at under 5 mph. This is commonly known as a "rolling stop" – but it's illegal. When you encounter a stop sign, you must STOP.

Not quite. The answer is Pedestrians should not cross the street.

A steady ”DONT WALK” signal means that pedestrians should not cross the street at all.

Not quite. The answer is The vehicle traveling uphill

When two vehicles meet on a steep mountain road where neither can pass, the vehicle traveling downhill must yield the right of way by backing up until the vehicle going uphill can pass. The vehicle facing downhill has the greater amount of control when backing.

Not quite. The answer is yield to the traffic in the roundabout.

A roundabout is a circular intersection in which traffic circulates counterclockwise around a central island. Approaching vehicles must yield the right-of-way to the traffic already in the roundabout. Always enter the roundabout, heading to the right (counterclockwise around the central island).

Not quite. The answer is Slow down and yield to traffic.

This is a yield sign, the only type of sign shaped like a downward-pointing triangle. When you arrive at a yield sign, you must slow down and yield to all pedestrians and vehicles before you proceed. You may also need to stop for them, so be ready.

Not quite. The answer is Car C

In a two-lane roundabout or any other type of intersection, you must always follow road signs and pavement markings. Unless signs or pavement markings indicate otherwise, you should turn left from the left lane, turn right from the right lane, and drive straight through using either lane. Here, Car C has apparently disregarded the painted arrows and incorrectly turned left from the right lane.

Not quite. The answer is all of the above.

Before entering an intersection, look both left and right for approaching vehicles and crossing pedestrians. If you are stopped, look both left and right just before you start to move. Also look across the intersection to make sure that your way is clear through the intersection.

Not quite. The answer is A school zone ahead

This sign indicates that a school zone is ahead. Schoolchildren may be crossing the road ahead, so slow down and proceed with caution when schoolchildren are around.

Not quite. The answer is yield the right-of-way to the pedestrians.

You must yield the right-of-way to crossing pedestrians within any crosswalk, whether marked or unmarked.

Not quite. The answer is on the right

When two vehicles enter an uncontrolled intersection (i.e., one without signs or signals) from different roadways at about the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right.

Not quite. The answer is Come to a complete stop and yield to traffic before proceeding.

At a stop sign, you must stop before the stop line, crosswalk, or intersection, whichever you arrive at first. Then yield to pedestrians and other vehicles before you proceed.
