Nebraska DMV Permit: Right-of-Way Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is Car C

In a multilane roundabout or any other type of intersection, you must always follow road signs and pavement markings. Generally, 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 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 stop behind the line

A single solid white line across the road at an intersection is a stop line. You must stop behind the stop line for a traffic signal or sign. If there is no stop line, you must stop before the crosswalk.

Not quite. The answer is Car A

In a multilane roundabout or any other type of intersection, you must always follow road signs and pavement markings. Here, Car A is making a U-turn by correctly starting from the left lane. Car B is making a left turn by incorrectly starting from the right lane.

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

This is a yield sign. This sign tells you that you don't have the right-of-way. As you approach a yield sign, you must slow down and yield to pedestrians and traffic entering from other roads before you proceed. You may also need to stop for them, so be ready.

Not quite. The answer is Controlled, uncontrolled, and blind

An intersection is a road junction where two or more roads cross or merge at-grade (i.e., at the same level). There are controlled, uncontrolled, and blind intersections. An interchange is a road junction where two or more roads cross over one another (i.e., at different levels) so as not to impede one another's traffic flow. There are diamond, cloverleaf, and stack interchanges, among others.

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 in the roundabout. Vehicles enter the roundabout, heading to the right.

Not quite. The answer is Stop and yield before crossing the sidewalk.

When leaving an alley, a driveway, or a parking lot to enter a roadway, stop before driving onto a sidewalk or onto the sidewalk area and proceed slowly. Yield the right-of-way to any pedestrians and approaching vehicles. When entering a roadway from a driveway, an alley, or a private road, stop and yield to roadway traffic before you proceed.

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 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 up.

Not quite. The answer is on the right

When two vehicles arrive at an uncontrolled intersection (i.e., one without signs or signals) 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 stop and wait until the pedestrian has passed.

Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within intersections or crosswalks. Under Nebraska law, when a pedestrian is in a marked or an unmarked crosswalk, you must stop and wait until the pedestrian has passed both your lane and the adjacent lane.
