Before you start the test, please answer the question below regarding your insurance status.

Without insurance you will not be able to drive in Louisiana

1. Driving while being distracted by any activity:

Is never dangerous.

Usually causes the driver to react more slowly to hazards.

Usually causes the driver to drive faster.

Is only dangerous for young drivers.

Distractions cause drivers to react more slowly to traffic and hazards on the roadway. Distracted driving is never safe.

2. Louisiana law requires headlights to be used:

When the driver is tired.

Between sunset and sunrise.

When the temperature drops below freezing.

During the day in favorable weather conditions.

Louisiana law requires that your headlights be on between sunset and sunrise. You are required by law to use lower headlight beams, not your bright lights, when approaching within 500 feet of or following within 200 feet of another vehicle.

3. You are stopped in a line of vehicles waiting at a stop sign. If there is no cross traffic after the vehicles ahead have passed through the intersection, you:

May proceed through the intersection without stopping again.

Must stop again at the stop sign or stop line before proceeding.

May slowly roll past the stop sign.

May follow the vehicle directly ahead of you without stopping.

You must always bring your vehicle to a complete stop and yield to approaching traffic before proceeding past a stop sign. Don't feel pressured by surrounding traffic to avoid making a complete stop.

4. When a vehicle with an Anti-Lock Braking System starts to lose traction on a slippery road, drivers should:

Pump the brakes.

Press and hold the brake pedal.

Press and hold the gas pedal.

Lightly tap the brakes.

If their vehicle loses traction on a slippery road, a driver with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) needs to press down hard on the brake pedal, hold it, and steer out of danger. In an emergency situation, the ABS automatically pumps the brakes at a faster rate than the driver could. Removing steady pressure from the brake pedal or pumping the brakes will disengage the ABS.

5. On a road which has no sidewalks, a pedestrian should walk on the:

Side of the road which has the lightest traffic.

Same side of the road on which traffic is moving.

Side of the road facing oncoming traffic.

Side of the road which has the heaviest traffic.

Pedestrians should walk on the side of the road facing the traffic in the lane nearest them.

6. Is it legal cross a double solid yellow centerline to pass?

Yes.

No.

If there is no oncoming traffic.

If the vehicle ahead of you is driving under the speed limit.

Two solid yellow lines down the center of a two-way road mean that neither lane of traffic may cross the lines, unless they are turning off of the roadway. A driver can cross double yellow lines when turning into or out of a driveway or entrance to a business. No passing is allowed over a solid yellow line.

You must turn left or right.

You are approaching a T intersection.

The road that you are on intersects with a divided highway.

You are on an overpass above a divided highway.

This sign indicates that the road that you are on intersects with a divided highway. A divided highway is two one-way roadways separated by a median or guide rail.
