   AStop always, even with an empty roadBSpeed up to merge into traffic ahead of othersCSlow down and give others the right-of-wayDHonk, then enter without looking
   Show Answer & Explanation

   Correct Answer
   C. Slow down and give others the right-of-way

   The keyed answer is "Slow down and give others the right-of-way". Yield means slow down, give crossing traffic the right-of-way, and roll on only if clear. Always-stop, speed-up-to-merge, or honk-and-enter answers are wrong because yield means slow down, give crossing traffic the right-of-way, and roll on only if clear.

2. Question 2Ref: FL Driver Handbook — Regulatory Signs (rev. 08/2023)

   You see a yellow pennant-shaped sign on the left side of a two-lane road. What does it mark?

   AA school zone speed limit aheadBThe start of a no-passing zoneCA left-turn-only laneDA railroad crossing ahead
   Show Answer & Explanation

   Correct Answer
   B. The start of a no-passing zone

   The keyed answer is "The start of a no-passing zone". The pennant marks the beginning of a no-passing zone on two-lane roads. School zones use pentagon or speed-limit signs, turn lanes use arrow signs and lane markings, and railroad crossings use a crossbuck or circular advance sign.

3. Question 3Ref: FL Driver Handbook — Regulatory Signs (rev. 08/2023)

   You are about to turn onto an expressway ramp and face a red sign reading DO NOT ENTER. What must you do?

   AStop briefly, then enter if the ramp looks clearBEnter only if no Wrong Way sign is postedCUse the ramp for a U-turn insteadDDo not enter; you would be going the wrong way
   Show Answer & Explanation

   Correct Answer
   D. Do not enter; you would be going the wrong way

   DO NOT ENTER marks a ramp or one-way roadway where entry is prohibited because traffic flows the opposite way. You may never enter past this sign, use the ramp for a U-turn, or treat a missing companion sign as permission.
