Florida DMV Permit: Signs & Signals Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is Do not make a right turn.

The arrow depicts a right turn. However, a red slash inside a red circle means "no." This regulatory sign prohibits drivers from making a right turn. This sign is located on the right side of a roadway or over a travel lane.

Not quite. The answer is Left turns are allowed when the steady green signal is lit and there are no oncoming vehicles.

This sign is usually posted at an intersection that has a combination of signals, including a green arrow that points left. When the green arrow is lit, you may make a left turn as a protected turn; oncoming traffic will be stopped at a red light. This sign indicates that when the green arrow goes out and a steady green light comes on, you may still make a left turn, but now you'll have to yield to oncoming vehicles before you turn.

Not quite. The answer is The maximum speed limit is 50 mph.

This sign states that the maximum speed limit is 50 mph. That is, you cannot exceed 50 mph here.

Not quite. The answer is without exceeding the speed limit.

When passing another vehicle, get through the other driver's blind spot as quickly as you can without exceeding the speed limit. The longer you stay in the blind spot, the longer you are in danger of a collision. You must not exceed the speed limit when passing, however.

Not quite. The answer is freeway interchange sign.

This sign is a freeway interchange sign. This sign indicates that you are approaching an interchange.

Not quite. The answer is only if you are riding a bicycle.

This sign marks a bicycle lane, intended for bicyclists. Cars and trucks should not usually travel in this lane. However, in many (but not all) states, cars and trucks may travel in this lane for a short distance when preparing to turn at the next intersection.

Not quite. The answer is parking is not allowed.

A red slash inside a red circle means "no." This regulatory sign is a No Parking sign. Parking at the sign is not allowed.

Not quite. The answer is A playground is ahead.

This is a warning sign indicating a playground ahead.

Not quite. The answer is Traffic in the right lane must turn right, and traffic in the second lane should go straight or turn right.

Not quite. The answer is Yield the right-of-way or stop before turning right or left.

You may see this sign at the terminating road of some T-intersections. It means that you must yield the right of way or stop before you turn right or left onto the through road.

Not quite. The answer is Sharp right turn

This sign indicates that the road ahead turns sharply to the right. Slow down and use caution.

Not quite. The answer is shift into a lower gear.

If you keep applying the brakes to control your speed on a steep descent, the brakes will fade (lose their effectiveness). Instead, release the gas pedal and shift into a lower gear (even with an automatic transmission). This will generate a braking effect to slow the vehicle, known as engine braking. The lower the gear, the greater the engine braking effect. Apply the brakes only when engine braking is insufficient or you want to stop.

Not quite. The answer is The divided highway ends ahead.

This sign warns that the divided highway ends ahead. The roadway will become an undivided two-way roadway. Keep right and watch for oncoming vehicles.

Not quite. The answer is A railroad crossing ahead

This railroad crossing signal has a bell and flashing red lights to warn that a train is coming. Stop when the bell is ringing and the lights are flashing.

Not quite. The answer is a low ground clearance railroad crossing.

This sign indicates a low ground clearance railroad crossing. The railroad crossing is raised so high that a vehicle with a long wheelbase or low ground clearance can get stuck on the tracks. This type of railroad crossing should not normally present a problem for a car driver unless he or she is pulling a trailer or driving a motor home with a low ground clearance.

Not quite. The answer is Car B, because it arrived at the intersection first

In Florida, when vehicles arrive at an all-way stop at different times, the vehicles should proceed in the order in which they arrived. Here, Car B arrived first, so it should proceed first after stopping.

Not quite. The answer is an object marker on a roadway.

This is an object marker sign, which is used to notify drivers of objects in the roadway or very close to the edge of the roadway. The stripes point downward toward the safe side of the roadway. This sign indicates that you should keep right to pass the object.
