North Dakota Permit Practice Test 2

Correct answer: 180 days to three years

If you refuse to take a chemical (AC) test or a roadside preliminary breath test, your license will be revoked for 180 days to three years.

Correct answer: 60 days after becoming a resident

You may operate a Class D or M vehicle on an out-of-state operator’s license for 60 days after you become a North Dakota resident. After that you must take the necessary tests to obtain a North Dakota license.

Correct answer: Toward the shoulder (edge of the road)

Uphill with no curb, turn your wheels toward the shoulder. If the car rolls, it moves away from traffic and toward the edge of the road.

Correct answer: The Highway Patrol or the County Sheriff’s Office

Outside city limits, immediately report the crash to the Highway Patrol or the County Sheriff’s Office.

Correct answer: The vehicle on the terminating street must yield to vehicles on the continuing street

At an uncontrolled T-intersection, the vehicle on the terminating street must yield to vehicles on the continuing (through) street.

Correct answer: In either lane or on the shoulder

Know where the plow is on multi-lane roadways — it could be in either lane or on the shoulder. Plows can also be pushed sideways by drifts and hard snow-pack.

Correct answer: More than 400 feet — longer than a football field

Tractor-trailers take longer to stop than a car at the same speed. A fully-loaded rig may need more than 400 feet on dry pavement — more than the length of a football field.

Correct answer: Slow down, and stop if necessary, to yield the right of way

The Yield sign means you must yield the right of way. It tells you to slow down and stop if necessary so you can yield.

Correct answer: 65 miles per hour

The maximum speed limit is 65 miles per hour on rural paved two-lane highways if posted for that speed.

Correct answer: As close to the centerline as possible

When turning left from a two-way road onto a two-way road, begin as close to the centerline as possible and complete the turn as indicated by the road.

Correct answer: Two — an administrative license penalty and a court conviction penalty

There are two separate penalties under the DUI law: an administrative license penalty and a court conviction penalty. Your driving privileges may be suspended through either or both processes.

Correct answer: Have it in your possession, signed by you

For your license or permit to be valid it must be signed by you, and you must have it in your possession every time you drive.

Correct answer: So the car will not roll into traffic if it slips out of gear

Turning your wheels on a hill is a safeguard: if the brakes fail or the car slips out of gear, the wheels steer it into the curb or shoulder instead of into traffic.

Correct answer: Name, address, insurance company, and policy number

In all crashes involving injury or damage, the drivers must exchange their name, address, motor vehicle insurance company, and policy number.

Correct answer: Yield to oncoming traffic

Vehicles turning left must yield to oncoming traffic. Also watch for vehicles passing on the right side of a vehicle turning left.

Correct answer: Never drive through it — wait until you can see

Never drive through whiteouts caused by crosswinds or plowing light snow. Snowplows themselves pull over and stop frequently. Be patient and wait until you can see.

Correct answer: Swing wide to the left before turning

On any turning vehicle the rear wheels follow a shorter path than the front. That is why truckers often swing out to the left as the first step in a right turn — never try to pass on the right of a truck that is signaling a turn.

Correct answer: They give mandatory instructions; most are white with black letters or red with white letters

Regulatory signs control and regulate traffic and give mandatory instructions to the driver. Most are white with black letters or red with white letters.

Correct answer: 55 miles per hour

The maximum speed limit is 55 miles per hour on gravel, dirt, or loose-surface roads unless otherwise posted. This distinctly North Dakota rule reflects the reduced traction on unpaved roads.

Correct answer: Move to the right, out of the passing lane

When turning left onto a four-lane highway, make the turn so you enter the passing lane. When traffic permits, move to the right, out of the passing lane.
