Correct answer: 15

The Learner’s Permit (LPD) is issued at age 15. A person may apply 60 days before their 15th birthday, but issuance must be on or after the 15th birthday. The permit is valid for one year.

Correct answer: Within 30 feet

Do not park within 30 feet of any flashing signal, stop sign, yield sign, or other traffic control device located at the side of the roadway, so you do not block it from view.

Correct answer: Only after you are released by the proper authorities

Do not leave the scene of the crash until you are released by the proper authorities. Also obtain the names and addresses of any witnesses before leaving.

Correct answer: One-way, counter-clockwise around the center island

In a roundabout, traffic flows one-way in a counter-clockwise direction around the center island.

Correct answer: 200 feet

Use high beams on open highways, but dim your headlights when following within 200 feet of another vehicle and when meeting oncoming vehicles, so you do not blind other drivers.

Correct answer: The same duties and rights as a driver of a motor vehicle

Per Nebraska Revised Statute 60-6,314, a person riding a bicycle has the same duties and rights as a driver of a motor vehicle. Bicyclists must obey traffic laws just like other road users.

Correct answer: Never drive in a lane under a red “X” signal

Never drive in a lane under a red “X” signal. A steady yellow “X” means move out of the lane as soon as safely possible, and a downward green arrow means the lane is open.

Correct answer: Drive at the same speed as the main stream of traffic

Generally, drive at the same speed as the main stream of traffic to avoid frequent passing and to ensure you can adjust to slower-moving vehicles.

Correct answer: 100 feet

It is unlawful to pass within 100 feet of any intersection. The same 100-foot restriction applies to railroad crossings.

Correct answer: Work together with seat belts, not replace them

Air bags are an added safety feature and do not replace wearing a seat belt. When combined with seat belts, air bags provide improved crash protection.

Correct answer: A licensed driver at least 21 occupying the seat beside the driver

The LPD holder must be accompanied by a licensed driver at least 21 years old who occupies the seat beside the driver.

Correct answer: On a bridge or within a highway tunnel

Correct answer: 12 points

Accumulating 12 points in a two-year period causes automatic revocation of the operator’s license for six months. A letter from the DMV informs you of the revocation and directs you to surrender the license.

Correct answer: Traffic approaching on your left already in the roundabout

When entering a roundabout, yield to traffic approaching on your left that is already in the roundabout, and enter when there is a safe gap.

Correct answer: Look toward the right edge of the road

If oncoming lights are blinding, do not look directly at the vehicle — look toward the right edge of the road. A clean windshield, inside and out, also helps reduce glare.

Correct answer: Three feet

The law requires motorists passing a bicycle in the same direction to leave no less than three feet of clearance until safely past. If you cannot leave three feet, reduce speed and wait until it is safe.

Correct answer: A warning that calls attention to unexpected conditions

Yellow is used on warning signs to call attention to unexpected conditions ahead.

A POP allows unsupervised driving from 6 a.m. to midnight. Between midnight and 6 a.m., a POP holder may drive unsupervised only to or from work or a school activity.

Correct answer: 50 feet

Do not park within 50 feet of railroad tracks. A parked vehicle that close can obstruct the crossing or a driver’s view of an approaching train.

Correct answer: 12 points

A conviction for Motor Vehicle Homicide is assessed 12 points — enough on its own to trigger automatic revocation. A third-offense drunk driving conviction also carries 12 points.

Correct answer: Pedestrians and bicyclists in the crosswalk as you approach and exit

You must yield to pedestrians and bicyclists in the crosswalk both as you approach the roundabout and as you exit it.
