South Dakota DMV Permit: Signs & Signals Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is A broken white line that allows passing

A broken or dashed line (either white or yellow) next to your lane means that you may pass if it is safe to do so.

Not quite. The answer is You may cross two solid white lines to pass or change lanes.

Two solid white lines separate two lanes of traffic moving in the same direction, but crossing the lines is prohibited. Two solid white lines are often used on freeways to separate a high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane from another lane moving in the same direction.

Not quite. The answer is move into the right lane.

If you see this sign and you are traveling slower than most traffic, move into the right lane so faster traffic can pass you on the left.

Not quite. The answer is if the solid yellow line is on your side.

Where there are both a solid and a dashed yellow line between opposing lanes of traffic, you may not pass if the solid yellow line is on your side.

Not quite. The answer is guide drivers into certain traffic lanes.

Large flashing or sequencing arrow panels may be used in work zones in both day and night to guide drivers into certain traffic lanes and inform them that part of the road or street ahead is closed.

Not quite. The answer is Traffic must make a left turn only.

This is a traffic regulatory sign. This sign indicates that the traffic must make a left turn only.

Not quite. The answer is Bicyclists must not use this road.

A red slash inside a red circle means "no." This prohibitory sign indicates that bicycles are not allowed on this route.

Not quite. The answer is C

This is a warning sign that indicates a two-way road.

Not quite. The answer is their locations on the highway.

Mile markers (also known as mileposts) are located every two-tenths of a mile so that drivers will always be in sight of one. They are placed along the outside shoulder to mark the edge of the highway and give drivers information about their locations on the highway for navigational and emergency purposes.

Not quite. The answer is Pedestrians must not cross.

A red slash inside a red circle means "no." This regulatory sign means that pedestrians must not cross here.

Not quite. The answer is pull over to the right edge of the road.

If an emergency vehicle is approaching you with its siren or flashing lights on, you must pull over to the right and remain stopped until the emergency vehicle has passed. However, if you are in an intersection when the emergency vehicle approaches, do not stop in the intersection. Continue through the intersection and then immediately pull over to the right.

Not quite. The answer is You have reached a railroad crossing.

Railroad flashing light signals and crossbuck signs are found at most public crossings. These signs must be treated the same way as a YIELD sign.

Not quite. The answer is There is a side road entering from the right.

This sign warns that the main road will curve to the left with a side road entering from the right. Approach this intersection with extra caution. A driver preparing to enter the main road from the side road may not see you approaching from around the curve and may suddenly pull out in front of you.

Not quite. The answer is The indicated lane is for high-occupancy vehicles during specified times.

This white diamond sign indicates that the way is reserved for high-occupancy vehicles (HOVs) during the specified times from Monday through Friday.

Not quite. The answer is a service sign.

Service signs show the locations of various services such as rest areas, gas stations, and hospitals. Service signs have white letters on a blue background. This service sign indicates a rest area one mile ahead.

Not quite. The answer is The driver, all front-seat passengers, and all passengers under 18

South Dakota law requires all front-seat occupants and all occupants under 18 to wear a seat belt or suitable child restraint. However, even rear-seat adult passengers should wear seat belts. Seat belts have been proven to save lives and reduce injuries – even in the rear seat.

Not quite. The answer is Deer crossing

This sign means that deer often cross the roadway in this area. Deer are most active at dusk and dawn. Be alert for deer and slow down if you see one. Deer, elk, and similar wildlife travel in herds. If you see one, be alert for others. A collision with a large animal may kill the animal, damage your vehicle, and possibly even injure someone in your vehicle.

Not quite. The answer is obey the normal posted speed limit.

In many work zones, the speed limits may be reduced and lane usage may be restricted for safety purposes. If there are no reduced speed limits posted, you should obey the normal posted speed limit.

Not quite. The answer is Road turns ahead; slow to a safe speed.

The road ahead changes direction sharply. Drivers must slow down to a safe speed.

Not quite. The answer is Left turns are not allowed.

On prohibitory signs, a red circle and slash mean "no." This sign means that left turns are prohibited here.
