Minnesota Permit Practice Test 3

Correct answer: A crime that results in revocation of your driving privileges

Under implied consent, if an officer has probable cause you must submit to a test. Refusing is a crime and results in revocation of driving privileges for one to six years, depending on your record.

Correct answer: Are at least 15 years old and hold a valid driver’s license from their home state or country

A nonresident who is at least 15 years old and has a valid driver’s license from their home state or country may drive on Minnesota public roads without a Minnesota license.

Correct answer: 20 feet

Parking is not allowed within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection. A parked car there blocks the view between drivers and people crossing.

Correct answer: Snowplows, road maintenance equipment, and authorized emergency vehicles

Only snowplows, road maintenance equipment, and authorized emergency vehicles may use blue lights. Using prohibited lights on an ordinary vehicle is illegal.

Correct answer: Stop and yield to pedestrians and traffic on the road

When entering a public road from a private road or driveway, you must stop and yield to pedestrians and traffic before proceeding.

Correct answer: After dark

Nearly half of all fatal traffic crashes in Minnesota occur after dark. Reduced visibility makes night driving more dangerous even when the road seems empty.

Correct answer: A divided highway, when you are traveling in the opposite direction

The only exception is on a divided highway when you are traveling in the opposite direction from the bus. On every other roadway you must stop for the flashing red lights.

Correct answer: You may turn in the direction of the arrow — the turn is protected from oncoming and crossing traffic

A green arrow means you can safely turn in the direction of the arrow. Your turn is protected from oncoming or crossing traffic while the arrow is showing.

Correct answer: 55 mph

Under ideal conditions, the speed limit is 55 mph in all other locations not otherwise specified, unless signs indicate a different limit.

Correct answer: Come to a complete stop and yield to pedestrians and traffic

At many intersections you can turn right on red. Make sure you are in the correct lane, come to a complete stop, check for pedestrians and traffic, and do not turn if a "No Turn on Red" sign is posted.

Correct answer: One to six years

Refusing to submit to a blood, breath, or urine test is a crime that results in revocation of driving privileges for one to six years, depending on the number of offenses on your record.

Correct answer: You must pass a written test, a vision test and a road test

If you move to Minnesota from a country other than the U.S. or Canada, you must pass a written test, a vision test and a road test, even if you have a valid license from your former country.

Correct answer: 30 feet

Parking is prohibited within 30 feet of any flashing light, stop sign, or traffic control signal at the side of a public road, so the sign or signal stays visible to other drivers.

Correct answer: Press the brake pedal

All motor vehicles except motorcycles must have red taillights that light up when you press the brake pedal, warning drivers behind you that you are slowing or stopping.

Correct answer: Yield to any vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection, then complete the turn

When a green arrow allows a left turn, you must yield to vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection. After yielding, you may continue in the direction of the arrow.

Correct answer: Remove snow and ice from the vehicle's hood, windows, and lights

Remove snow and ice from your hood, windows, and lights before driving so you can see and be seen. Make sure your windshield washer fluid contains antifreeze.

Correct answer: Illegal

It is against the law to pass on the right side of a school bus while it is displaying red or yellow flashing lights.

Correct answer: Stop — remain stopped until the arrow turns green

A red arrow means stop. Come to a complete stop at the stop line, before the crosswalk or before entering the intersection, and wait until the arrow turns green.

Correct answer: Illegal to drive slower than the minimum under normal conditions

Some roads have minimum speed limits. It is illegal to drive slower than the posted minimum under normal conditions, though you may go slower when bad weather or poor road conditions make it necessary.

Correct answer: From a one-way street onto another one-way street, after stopping and yielding

You may make a left turn on red from a one-way street onto another one-way street, after coming to a complete stop, making sure the intersection is clear, and yielding to pedestrians and traffic.
