# 1: On which side should you pass a vertical panel like this?

On either side To the right To the left On no side - the road is closed

The diagonal stripes on the barricade or vertical panel guide the driver towards the direction to where the traffic is to pass. Stripes slowing downward to the left means the driver should bear to the left.

# 2: This white sign means you must not pass:

Other vehicles for any reason. Until it seems safe to do so. Until after you pass the sign.

Do not pass. You must not pass any vehicles going in the same direction as you are while you are in this area. Passing signs tell you where it is safe to pass another vehicle and where you cannot. Passing areas are based on how far you can see ahead. Where it is permitted to pass, you may do so only if it is safe.

Eight-sided Round Five-sided Four-sided

The five-sided (pentagon) shape is used for school advance and school crossing signs.

The lane is only for turning. You should prepare to change lane. You must be prepared to stop ahead. You are not allowed to drive in the lane beneath the sign.

A flashing yellow X signal means that a driver is permitted to use the lane for a left turn. This may also be indicated by a white one-way left turn arrow, or a two-way left turn arrow.

# 5: This marker indicates that there is a potentially dangerous object or condition:

To the left of the marker To the right of the marker On both sides of the marker

Stripes sloping downward to the right mean you should bear to the right. The hazard is on the left side of the marker. Object markers are used to notify drivers of objects in the roadway or very close to the edge of the roadway. This sign emphasizes the need to not stray outside of the marked travel lane.

# 6: What is the shape of a warning sign that tells you there is a roundabout ahead?

Four-sided diamond Vertical rectangular Circular Three-sided pennant

Remember, four-sided diamond-shaped signs warn you of specific road conditions and dangers ahead, as a roundabout. The sign is not circular!

# 7: What does this sign mean?

Uneven number of lanes are open to traffic. The shoulder is lower than the road. Only one lane is open to traffic. Differences in elevation between parallel lanes.

This sign tells you that construction work may have caused a difference in the elevation of parallel traffic lanes.

# 8: Where can you expect to see this sign?

At the end of a no-passing zone. Before a railroad crossing. In a school zone or at a school crossing. On a one-way street.

The pass with care sign indicates the end of the no-passing zone. When you have passed this sign, you are again allowed to pass other vehicles, but use caution.

# 9: What does this sign mean?

Divided highway ahead Pass on either side Two-way traffic Cross road ahead

Double Arrow. Traffic is permitted to pass on either side of an island, obstruction, or gore in the roadway. Traffic separated by this sign may either rejoin or change directions.

An advisory speed sign A maximum speed limit sign A minimum speed limit sign

This is an Advisory Speed sign. These cautionary signs show the recommended safe speed around curves, corners, and off-ramps.

# 12: Which sign tells you that you will be on an undivided roadway with two-way traffic ahead?

 

 

 

 

Divided Highway Ends. The divided highway on which you are traveling ends ahead. You will then be on an undivided roadway with two-way traffic. Keep to the right.

# 13: You approach this road sign. What should you expect ahead?

A low-type road surface or earth road A flooded roadway A soft shoulder A work zone

The road surface changes ahead   from a hard-surfaced pavement to a low-type surface or earth road.

# 14: What does this Large Arrow sign mark?

A side road End of a central median A sharp curve The direction in a roundabout

The One-Direction Large Arrow sign is used either as a supplement or alternative to the Chevron signs. It can also be used to supplement a Turn or Reverse Turn sign. The sign is not used in roundabouts, at the beginnings and ends of medians or at center piers.

# 15: Which sign tells you to be prepared to change lanes or to allow other vehicles to merge into your lane?

 

 

 

 

Reduction of lanes (there will be fewer lanes ahead). These signs are used on multi-lane highways to warn you of a reduction in the number of traffic lanes in the direction you are traveling. Be prepared to change lanes or to allow other vehicles to merge into your lane. Drivers of all vehicles may need to adjust their speed and position to avoid a collision with another vehicle.

# 16: Which sign tells you to expect less clearance between lanes ahead?

 

 

 

 

This sign tells you that you are approaching a bridge wide enough to accommodate two lanes of traffic, but with very little clearance. Slow down and use caution.

# 17: What does this sign tell you?

Left turn lane ahead. Cross traffic travels to the left only. All traffic must turn left at the intersection. Do not turn in the direction of the arrow.

The one way sign is used to indicate streets or roadways upon which traffic is allowed to travel in one direction only. Do not turn against the arrow. The sign is placed parallel to the one-way street at all alleys and roadways that intersect one-way roadways. Unless placed at a T-intersection, the sign does not indicate that turning is needed.

# 18: When you see this sign, you should:

Expect mowing equipment next to the highway. Be prepared to stop for a flagman or signal. Pull to the right and stop. Be prepared to merge with traffic from the right.

This is an advance warning of a location where traffic in both directions must use the same single lane. Reduce speed and be prepared to stop. Temporary traffic signals might be installed or a flagman stationed to direct and let traffic take turns using the single lane.

# 19: You approach a stop sign with this supplemental plaque. Another vehicle is approaching from the left. Who must yield?

The driver approaching from the left. You. The driver who reaches the intersection first. The driver who reaches the intersection last.

The cross traffic does not stop can be used in combination with a stop sign when there is a chance drivers misinterpret the intersection as an all-way stop. The driver facing this stop sign must stop and yield to all crossing traffic.

Difficult Signs on the Driver’s License Test

Many licensed drivers in United States fail to recognize the meanings of some of the common road signs they see every day. In some cases, it also means that licensed drivers would fail their license knowledge test, if they were forced to re-take the exam.

Teenagers with no driving experience also have difficulties with some of the most common road signs. It is usually because they haven’t figured out the universal language of road signs yet.

In fact, very few first-time applicants get the prefect score on their first DMV test, even though road signs probably are the easiest part of the written test.

Quiz-A-Go-Go has put together this quiz with some of the most difficult signs, because knowing road signs and their meanings is essential for safety on our highways.

Any driver who gets behind the wheel is responsible for knowing all signs and their meanings. Disobeying a road sign, just because you didn’t understand it may be costly and may also put yourself and others at risk of an accident.

In this quiz, you will see some of the signs that confuse many test takers on the real license or permit test. On average, they miss six out of the 20 signs.

Can you do better?
