Texas driver's examination

A solid red arrow in a traffic signal means the same thing as a circular red traffic light. When an arrow is red, traffic in the indicated lane must stop and may not turn in the direction that the arrow is pointing.

Convictions for some offenses result in the automatic suspension of your license and driving privilege. These offenses include driving while intoxicated, failing to stop and render aid following a collision, and driving with an invalid license.

You must not follow a fire truck responding to a fire alarm at a distance closer than 500 feet. You must not drive or park your vehicle within the block where a fire truck has stopped to answer a fire alarm.

If your vehicle’s accelerator sticks open, your vehicle will continue to maintain its speed or accelerate, even if you remove your foot from the gas pedal. Turn off the ignition, using care to move the ignition switch only far enough to stop the engine and not engage the steering wheel locking mechanism. Apply your brakes and move off the road to a safe area.

When you drive, make sure each person in your vehicle wears a seat belt. In the event of a crash, a person without a seat belt becomes a flying object and a danger to each person in the vehicle.

Double solid lines indicate that you may not pass or change lanes. You cannot cross the lines unless it is to turn left to enter or exit a highway, to turn into or from a driveway, or to make a U-turn.
