Try again Read the Nevada guide Question 1 of 20 In most US states, the unposted speed limit in a residential or business district is: A 15 mph B 20 mph C 25 mph D 35 mph Explanation. 25 mph is the standard default residential and business district speed limit in nearly every US state when no sign is posted. Question 2 of 20 What is the proper hand position on the steering wheel? A 12 and 6 o'clock B 10 and 2 o'clock C 9 and 3 o'clock D 8 and 4 o'clock Explanation. Modern guidance is 9 and 3 (or 8 and 4) — these positions reduce arm injury from airbag deployment compared with the older 10-and-2. Question 3 of 20 While driving in Nevada with your learner's permit, you must be accompanied by: A Anyone over 18 B A licensed driver age 21 or older in the front seat C Only a parent or legal guardian D A driving instructor only Explanation.

Question 4 of 20 Driving slower than other traffic on a freeway is: A Always safe and legal B Sometimes dangerous and may be illegal C Required if you are a new driver D Required in the right lane only Explanation. Driving too slowly on a freeway can be a hazard. Most states have minimum speeds (typically 40 mph) and require slow drivers to use the right lane.

You should: A Maintain your speed because you are within the legal limit B Reduce your speed to a safe level for conditions C Use your high beams to see better D Stop in the right lane until the fog clears Explanation.

Question 6 of 20 A "Wrong Way" sign means: A You may turn around in the road B You are driving against the legal flow of traffic C There is a detour ahead D You are entering a one-way street going the right way Explanation.

Brown signs mark parks, historic sites, monuments, and other recreational or cultural attractions. Question 9 of 20 A solid white line on the right edge of the road marks: A The center of the road B The edge of the traveled lane C A passing zone D A bicycle lane Explanation.

Question 12 of 20 Motorcycles are entitled to: A Half a traffic lane B A full traffic lane C The shoulder only D The bicycle lane only Explanation. Motorcycles have the right to a full lane. Do not share or "split" a lane with a motorcycle. Question 13 of 20 A driver with a disabled placard is entitled to park in: A Any space B Only blue-marked accessible spaces C Red curb zones for short periods D Loading zones Explanation. Disabled placards permit parking only in spaces specifically marked as accessible (typically with a blue background and wheelchair symbol). Question 14 of 20 When applying for your Nevada permit, you must bring: A Just a photo ID B Proof of identity, Social Security number, and $name residency C Only a birth certificate D Just payment for the fee Explanation. Nevada requires proof of identity (birth certificate or passport), Social Security number, and two proofs of Nevada residency. Bring originals, not copies.

Above this, you are legally impaired regardless of how you feel. Question 17 of 20 The "two-second rule" or "three-second rule" measures: A Reaction time only B Following distance C Maximum speed D Time to brake Explanation. Both rules measure following distance — the time gap between you and the vehicle ahead. Three seconds is the modern recommendation.
