Florida Permit Practice Test 2

Correct answer: No — you can be charged for being in physical control of the vehicle while impaired

You can be charged with DUI if you are driving OR in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence.

Correct answer: Tires with low air pressure or worn tread, and speeding

Tires with low air pressure or bad tread increase the risk of hydroplaning, and so does speeding. Slow down and keep your tires in good condition on wet roads.

Correct answer: The vision screening and the Class E Knowledge Exam

For a learner's license you must pass the vision screening and the Class E Knowledge Exam. The driving skills (road) test is required later, for the full driver license.

Correct answer: Your own injuries in a crash, no matter who caused it

PIP covers your injuries if you are in a crash, no matter who caused it — that is what makes Florida a "no-fault" state. PDL pays for damage you cause to others' property.

Correct answer: Traffic already in the intersection, and to pedestrians and bicyclists

After a complete stop, you must yield the right-of-way to traffic already in the intersection and to pedestrians and bicyclists. Move only when the road is clear.

Correct answer: The one that lets you keep complete control and avoid collisions for the conditions

Speed limits are for favorable conditions. The safest speed is the one that lets you keep full control of your vehicle and avoid collisions, which may be slower than the posted limit.

Correct answer: No — painted lines and pavement markings are not considered barriers

Painted lines or pavement markings are NOT considered barriers. Only a raised barrier or an unpaved median at least five feet wide exempts opposite-direction traffic.

Correct answer: Make sure the intersection is clear and yield to pedestrians and vehicles still in it

Green means go only if the intersection is clear. Yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk and to any vehicles still in the intersection before proceeding.

Correct answer: The action shown is not allowed

A red circle with a red slash is the universal "NO" symbol — it shows what you are not allowed to do.

Correct answer: No — using your signals to wave another driver past is against the law

It's against the law to use your directional signals to tell drivers behind you that they can pass. Signals communicate only your own intended movements.

Correct answer: To submit to a breath, blood, or urine test if lawfully asked

By signing your driver license you have agreed, under the Implied Consent Law, to take a breath, blood, or urine test if an officer has reasonable cause to believe you are impaired.

Correct answer: Slow down and gently press the brake pedal until they work again

Wet brakes may pull to one side or not hold at all. Slow down and gently apply the brakes, driving slowly in low gear, until they dry out and work normally again.

Correct answer: 20/40 or better in each eye, with or without corrective lenses

Vision of 20/40 or better in each eye (with or without glasses or contacts) meets the state standard. Worse than that leads to a referral to an eye specialist.

Correct answer: 90 days (consecutive or non-consecutive) in the last 365 days

You must carry the required PIP and PDL insurance if you own a motor vehicle that has been in Florida for 90 days (consecutive or non-consecutive) during the last 365 days.

Correct answer: The turning vehicle yields to the vehicle going straight

At a two-way stop, the turning vehicle must yield to the vehicle going straight through.

Correct answer: Drive slower than the posted speed limit

You are responsible for adjusting your speed to weather, road, and traffic conditions. In a storm, drive slower than the posted limit.

Correct answer: When the stop signal is withdrawn and all children are clear of the roadway

You must remain stopped until the stop signal is withdrawn and all children are clear of the roadway.

Correct answer: Yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians, then turn when it is safe

A plain green light does not protect a left turn. You must yield to oncoming traffic and to pedestrians before completing the turn.

Correct answer: Wait for the green signal before turning

A NO TURN ON RED sign means you must not turn while the light is red — you must wait for the green signal.

Correct answer: The left side of the vehicle

Hand signals must be given from the left side of the vehicle so drivers behind and beside you can see them clearly.
