Questions (72)
1. This sign means?
- Fire truck entrance ahead ✓
- Large truck entrance ahead
- Scool bus entrance ahead
- Bus entrance ahead
Answer: A. Fire truck entrance ahead
This sign means a fire truck entrance is ahead. The handbook lists this warning among common signs: it tells you a fire truck entrance is coming up on the right, and vehicles should be ready to yield to fire trucks entering the roadway. The same list separately describes a bus entrance sign, and the truck entrance sign in the warning-sign section refers to a truck entrance, not a fire truck. So the sign whose meaning names fire trucks is the one that means a fire truck entrance ahead.
2. This sign means?
- Railway crossing ahead
- Oncoming traffic must stop
- Yield the right of way ✓
- School zone ahead
Answer: C. Yield the right of way
This sign means you must yield the right of way, letting traffic already in the intersection or close to it go first. The handbook describes the yield sign as meaning you let traffic in the intersection or close to it go first. You stop if that is necessary and move only once the way is clear. That matches yielding the right of way, which the handbook explains as letting another driver go first. It is not a full stop sign, and it does not give you priority — the other traffic goes ahead of you when it is already there or nearly there.
3. When a red "X" is indicated over a driving lane…?
- It applies to pedestrians only
- Drivers in that lane must stop immediately
- It indicates traffic lights ahead
- A driver must not enter or remain in that lane ✓
Answer: D. A driver must not enter or remain in that lane
4. This sign means?
- Traffic lights ahead. Slow down ✓
- Bump 120 meters ahead
- School bus stop ahead
- Stop 150 meters ahead
Answer: A. Traffic lights ahead. Slow down
It means traffic lights are ahead and you should slow down. The handbook lists this among the common warning signs and gives its meaning as traffic lights ahead, with the instruction to slow down. In other words, the sign tells you that a signal-controlled location is coming, so you should reduce speed and be ready for the traffic lights. The passages do not tie this warning to a specific distance, a bump, a school bus stop or a stop line. The answer follows directly from the wording in the warning-sign list.
5. This sign means?
- Truck entrance on the right side of the road ahead ✓
- Hidden school bus stop
- Underpass ahead. Take care if you are driving a tall vehicle
- Truck entrance on the left side of the road ahead
Answer: A. Truck entrance on the right side of the road ahead
The sign means that trucks enter the roadway from the right side ahead. The handbook's list of common warning signs describes a sign telling drivers that trucks enter the road from the right side ahead. It also says that if the sign shows the truck on the left, the entrance is on the left side. This points to the sign being about where trucks enter the road, not about a school bus stop or an underpass. The bank answer matches that right-side truck entrance meaning.
6. This sign means?
- Narrow bridge ahead
- Road under construction
- Divided highway ends
- Divided highway begins ✓
Answer: D. Divided highway begins
The sign means a divided highway begins, with traffic ahead travelling in both directions on separated roads and you keeping to the right-hand road. The handbook's entry for divided highway begins says traffic ahead travels in both directions on separated roads, and you should keep to the right-hand road. It adds that each roadway carries one-way traffic. That makes divided highway begins the matching meaning: the separated roadways are starting, not ending, and you stay on the right-hand one. The passages do not describe this sign as a narrow bridge or road construction warning.
7. This sign means?
- Right turn allowed
- Right turn only
- Winding road ahead
- Slight bend or curve in the road ahead ✓
Answer: D. Slight bend or curve in the road ahead
The sign means there is a slight bend or curve in the road ahead. The handbook's warning-sign list includes a sign for a slight bend or curve ahead. Warning signs alert you to dangerous or unusual conditions such as a curve or turn, so this sign tells you to expect a gentle change in the road's direction. The bank answer matches that listed meaning. It is not the separate warning for a winding road, and it does not grant or require a right turn.
8. This sign means?
- Narrow bridge ahead ✓
- Railway crossing
- Pavement ends
- Sharp bend in the road
Answer: A. Narrow bridge ahead
The sign means a narrow bridge is ahead. The handbook's list of common warning signs includes one that warns of a narrow bridge ahead. That is the meaning you match to this picture. Because it is a warning sign, it tells you to be alert to a bridge that is narrow as you approach it, so you can adjust your speed and lane position before you reach it rather than after. The other meanings in the options belong to separate warning signs, not this one.
9. This sign means?
- Winding road ahead
- Crosswalk ahead
- Sharp curves in the road ✓
- Exit to the right
Answer: C. Sharp curves in the road
The sign means there are sharp curves in the road ahead, so slow down and be ready for the road to bend quickly. The handbook lists this among its common warning signs, describing a sharp bend or turn in the road ahead. It also notes that chevron (arrowhead) signs are posted in groups to guide drivers around sharp curves, which tells you the warning is about the road bending sharply rather than about traffic, pedestrians or a turnoff. A separate warning sign covers a slight bend or curve, and another covers a winding road, so the sharp-curve wording is the one that matches this sign.
10. This sign means?
- You must come to a complete stop and do not proceed until safe ✓
- Bump 150 meters ahead
- Stop 150 meters ahead
- Stop only if other vehicles are approaching
Answer: A. You must come to a complete stop and do not proceed until safe
The sign means you must come to a complete stop and not go on until it is safe. The handbook says a stop sign requires a complete stop. It tells you to stop at the marked stop line, or at the crosswalk, sidewalk edge or intersection edge if no line is painted, and to enter only after checking that the way is clear. That matches the answer: come to a full stop first and go on only when it is safe. The passages say nothing about a bump or a sign set 150 metres ahead, so those choices are not supported.
