1. You feel drowsy, so you open a window and turn the radio up. What does that achieve?
Show answer
Answer B: Very little, because the drowsiness comes back
Cold air and loud music are not sleep, so the alerting effect lasts a minute or two and the driver is soon just as sleepy and closer to a lapse.
-
2. The lane control signal above your lane changes to a steady yellow X. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer A: Prepare to leave the lane, because it is about to be closed
A steady yellow X is the warning that the lane below it is about to close, giving drivers time to move over before the red X appears.

3. You have stopped on an uphill grade close behind a large truck at a traffic signal. What is the risk?
Show answer
Answer B: The truck may roll back into you when it starts to move
Heavy vehicles can roll backward a short distance when the driver moves from the brake to the accelerator on a hill. Leave extra room when stopped behind a truck on a grade.
-
4. You are clear of the tracks after your vehicle stalled on a crossing. Whom should you contact?
Show answer
Answer C: The emergency number posted on the blue sign at the crossing, or 911
Grade crossings carry an emergency notification sign with a railroad phone number and a crossing identification number so that approaching trains can be stopped, and 911 works if that sign is not visible.
-
5. What does a broken line indicate, whatever color it is painted?
Show answer
Answer C: That crossing it is permitted
A broken line always describes a permissive condition, and the color then tells the driver whether the traffic beyond it runs the same way or the opposite way.
-
6. Along a highway the reference markers count upward as you travel. Where does the numbering normally begin?
Show answer
Answer C: At the southern or western edge of the state
Mileage numbering starts where the route enters the state from the south or the west, so rising numbers tell a driver which way they are heading.
-
7. You are entering a marked school zone during the posted hours. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer A: Slow to the school zone limit and watch for children
The school zone limit applies throughout the posted hours, whether or not you can see any children at that moment.
-
8. Two left-turn lanes are marked at the intersection and you are in the left one. What must you do?
Show answer
Answer A: Stay in your own lane all the way around the turn
With dual turn lanes each driver must hold a lane through the whole turn and come out in the matching lane of the new street.
-
9. What is the danger of riding in cold weather with thin gloves?
Show answer
Answer C: Cold, numb hands respond slowly and lose their feel for the controls
Wind chill at riding speed cools the hands quickly, and numb fingers are slower and less precise on the clutch, throttle and brake.
-
10. What are the minimum liability insurance limits required of an Oklahoma driver or vehicle owner?
Show answer
Answer B: 25,000 dollars per person, 50,000 dollars per accident and 25,000 dollars property damage
Oklahoma compulsory liability insurance requires 25,000 dollars for injury or death of one person, 50,000 dollars for two or more persons and 25,000 dollars for property damage, all per accident.
-
11. The curb ahead is signed as a bus stop. May you wait there with your vehicle?
Show answer
Answer C: No, the space must stay clear for buses
A bus stop must stay open so that a bus can reach the curb and let passengers on and off safely, so no other vehicle may occupy it.
-
12. You are driving on a two-lane road approaching the crest of a hill. Where should you position your vehicle?
Show answer
Answer D: Toward the right side of your lane, in case an oncoming vehicle is over the center line
You cannot see what is beyond a crest, and oncoming drivers sometimes drift across the center. Keeping right and slowing gives you a margin.
-
13. You face a red light at an intersection that has no stop line and no marked crosswalk. Where must you stop?
Show answer
Answer C: Before entering the intersection
With no line and no crosswalk, the stopping point is the near edge of the intersecting roadway, close enough to see cross traffic but clear of it.
-
14. A driver stopped on suspicion of impaired driving refuses to take a chemical test. What happens?
Show answer
Answer D: A license penalty follows for the refusal itself
Under implied consent, holding a license means agreeing to testing, so a refusal brings its own suspension separately from anything the court decides.
-
15. A driver moves into the space you were keeping ahead of you. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer D: Ease off and rebuild the gap in front of you
Losing a following gap is common in traffic; the answer is simply to drop back and recreate it rather than drive too close.
-
16. You feel dizzy, weak and clammy after an hour of riding in high heat. What should you do?
Show answer
Answer B: Stop in the shade, drink water and cool down before riding further
Those are early signs of heat illness and they get worse with continued exertion, so get out of the sun, rehydrate and cool off before you ride on.
-
17. How does alcohol typically affect a driver's vision?
Show answer
Answer D: It blurs vision, weakens night vision and narrows attention to the sides
Alcohol slows the eye muscles and the brain's processing of what is seen, degrading focus, night vision, depth perception and awareness of movement at the edges of the field of view.
-
18. How does driving on overinflated tires affect the vehicle?
Show answer
Answer D: It gives a harsher ride and a smaller contact patch
An overinflated tire bulges in the middle, so less rubber touches the road, grip suffers and the ride becomes hard. The center of the tread wears first.
-
19. A flashing red arrow is displayed for your turning lane. What does it require?
Show answer
Answer D: Stopping, then turning when the way is clear
A flashing red arrow is treated like a stop sign for that movement: come to a full stop, then turn when it is safe and no one has to be cut off.
-
20. You cannot avoid an obstacle lying in the road. At what angle should you try to cross it?
Show answer
Answer D: As close to 90 degrees as possible
Meeting the obstacle squarely keeps the front wheel from being deflected sideways as it climbs over the edge.
