Nebraska Permit Practice Test 3

Correct answer: Time

Only time can reduce the alcohol level and its effects on the body. Coffee, food, and fresh air do not speed up the process. If you plan to drink, arrange for a designated driver or other transportation.

Correct answer: 14 years and two months

The applicant must be at least 14 years and two months old, and must have held an LPE or LPD for at least two months before applying for the School Permit.

Correct answer: No closer than 15 feet

You may not park within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Keeping this space clear lets firefighters reach the hydrant quickly in an emergency.

Correct answer: $1,500

A crash report is required if any person is injured or killed, or if property damage to any one person equals or exceeds $1,500 — unless a law enforcement officer investigated the crash and submits the report.

Correct answer: Stop before the sidewalk and yield to pedestrians and approaching vehicles

When leaving an alley, driveway, or parking lot, stop before driving onto the sidewalk area, proceed slowly, and yield the right-of-way to any pedestrian and approaching vehicles.

Correct answer: A mile or more before the intended exit

Plan ahead. Signal and move into the proper lane a mile or more before your intended exit, then slow down after moving into the deceleration lane and check the advised ramp speed.

Correct answer: Major hazards to motorcyclists that may cause sudden position changes

Road conditions that are minor annoyances to you pose major hazards to motorcyclists. Riders may change speed or shift position within a lane suddenly to react to potholes, gravel, or slippery surfaces.

Correct answer: Never — turning on a red arrow is prohibited

Turning on a red arrow is prohibited. You must remain stopped as long as the arrow is red.

Correct answer: 20 mph

Unless otherwise posted, the maximum speed limit is 20 mph in business districts.

Correct answer: A reversible lane that changes direction as indicated by signs or signals

Reversible lanes are marked with double-dashed broken yellow lines, indicating the lane changes direction of traffic flow as directed by traffic signs or signals.

Correct answer: Consult a physician or pharmacist about its effects on driving

Physicians and pharmacists should be consulted about any prescription medication and its possible effects on driving. Over-the-counter medication packaging should also be reviewed for side effects that affect driving.

Correct answer: To and from school over the most direct route by the nearest highway

An SCP holder may drive unsupervised to and from school (or school activities) over the most direct and accessible route by the nearest highway, and may transport family members who reside with them. They may drive anytime only when accompanied by a licensed driver at least 21.

Correct answer: At least 20 feet

Do not park within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection. Parking too close blocks the view between drivers and people crossing the street.

Correct answer: Do not need to submit your own report — the officer will submit it

If the crash was investigated by a law enforcement officer, they will submit the report, so you do not have to. Otherwise, you must file the report yourself within ten days when it meets the threshold.

Correct answer: Come to a full stop and wait until all conflicting traffic and pedestrians have cleared

At a two-way stop, come to a full stop before entering the intersection, look in all directions, and wait until all conflicting pedestrians and vehicles have cleared before proceeding.

Correct answer: From sunset to sunrise

Headlights must be used from sunset to sunrise. Turn on your low beams when daylight begins to fade to help others see you; driving with parking lights only is unlawful.

Correct answer: Nearly 40 percent

Approximately one-third of all motorcycle crashes involve another motor vehicle, and nearly 40 percent of those were caused by the other vehicle turning left in front of the motorcyclist.

Correct answer: Turning from a one-way street onto another one-way street, after stopping

A left turn on a circular red light is allowed only when traveling on a one-way street and turning onto another one-way street, after coming to a complete stop and where not prohibited by signs.

Correct answer: 70 mph

Unless otherwise posted, the maximum speed limit is 70 mph on expressways, super-two highways, and freeways that are part of the state highway system.

Correct answer: Signal your intention to enter traffic

Always signal when pulling into traffic from a parking area, alley, or curb so other drivers know your intentions.
