Missouri DOR Permit: Right-of-Way Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is left-right-left rule

When you come to an intersection, follow the left-right-left rule: Look to your left first because vehicles coming from the left are closer to you. Then look to your right. Finally, take one more look to your left before you proceed. You might see a vehicle on your left that you did not see the first time you looked.

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

When approaching a roundabout, you must yield to traffic in the roundabout and pedestrians in crosswalks. Enter the roundabout from the right and travel counterclockwise around the roundabout until you reach your exit. Then switch on your right turn signal and exit the roundabout on the right.

Not quite. The answer is one vehicle length.

When stopped behind another vehicle on a hill, you should stay back about one vehicle length. If you are too close to it, it may roll back into your vehicle when it starts.

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.

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

This is a yield sign. As you approach a yield sign, you must slow down and yield to pedestrians and traffic entering from another road before you proceed. You may need to stop too, so be ready.

Not quite. The answer is stop and wait until the pedestrian has passed.

You must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in intersections and crosswalks. When a pedestrian is in a marked or unmarked crosswalk, you must stop and wait until the pedestrian has passed.

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

You must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within a marked or unmarked crosswalk.

Not quite. The answer is white

Blind pedestrians may carry white canes or use the assistance of guide dogs.

Not quite. The answer is on the right

If two vehicles enter an uncontrolled intersection from different roadways at about the same time, the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right.

Not quite. The answer is stop

A stop sign means that you must come to a complete stop and then yield to pedestrians and other vehicles before you enter the intersection.

Not quite. The answer is Yes, but only after you yield to all traffic and pedestrians already in the intersection.

You can proceed on a green signal after yielding to all pedestrians and traffic that are already in the intersection.

Not quite. The answer is right

A roundabout is a circular intersection in which traffic circulates counterclockwise around a central island. Approaching vehicles must yield to the traffic in the circle. Always enter to the right of the central island.

Not quite. The answer is pedestrians and vehicles already in the roundabout.

When entering an intersection, you must yield to pedestrians and vehicles that are already in the intersection. And a roundabout is one type of intersection, so that rule applies to it too.

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

At a stop sign, you must come to a complete stop before the stop line or crosswalk. Then you can proceed but only after yielding to pedestrians and approaching vehicles.

Not quite. The answer is a counterclockwise

A roundabout is a circular intersection in which vehicles travel counterclockwise around a central island. These intersections are designed to reduce the number and severity of collisions as well as provide operational efficiencies.
