North Carolina DMV Permit: Right-of-Way Practice Test

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 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 the sidewalk area and then yield to pedestrians. Yield the right-of-way to approaching vehicles before you enter the roadway.

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 The vehicle to the right

When two or more vehicles reach an uncontrolled intersection (i.e., one without signs or signals) at the same time, the vehicle to the right has the right-of-way.

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 4

If you are convicted of failing to yield the right-of-way to a bicycle, motorcycle, motor scooter, or pedestrian, four points will be added to your driving record.

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 right-of-way is to be given, not taken.

The law states who must yield the right-of-way; it doesn't give anyone the right-of-way. You may encounter drivers or pedestrians who are not following the rules. In such situations, yield the right-of-way rather than risk a conflict that could result in an accident.

Not quite. The answer is Stop and yield to traffic.

This is, of course, a stop sign, the only type of sign that is octagonal (eight sided). A stop sign has the word "STOP" printed in white on a red background. At a stop sign, you must stop before the stop line, crosswalk, or start of the intersection, whichever you arrive at first. Then yield to pedestrians and other vehicles, and proceed only when it is safe to do so.

Not quite. The answer is A school zone

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