1. Q1Licensing gdl

   In Virginia's two-part knowledge exam, how many of the ten part-one sign questions must you answer correctly before part two opens?

   1. AAll ten
   2. BEight of the ten
   3. CSeven of the ten
   4. DHalf of them
   Show answer

   A. All ten Part one is a ten-question traffic-sign check, and a single miss ends the attempt before the general-knowledge questions appear. Part two is scored separately at 80 percent. Because signs are all-or-nothing, learn each sign by color, shape and meaning rather than hoping to guess a few.

2. Q2Traffic signals markings

   At a red light with no sign or red arrow against it, you may turn right in Virginia only after you:

   1. ASlow to walking speed and merge when no cars are visible
   2. BCome to a complete stop, look both ways and yield to pedestrians and other traffic
   3. CWait for a green arrow to appear
   4. DHonk to warn cross traffic and then proceed
   Show answer

   B. Come to a complete stop, look both ways and yield to pedestrians and other traffic A right turn on red is legal in Virginia, but only after a full stop at the stop line. You must then yield to pedestrians and traffic, including less visible motorcycles, bicycles and mopeds. A posted No Turn on Red sign or a red right arrow cancels the option entirely.

3. Q3Intersections turns

   Two vehicles from different directions reach an intersection with no signs or signals at the same moment. Who goes first?

   1. AThe driver on the left
   2. BThe driver in the larger vehicle
   3. CThe driver on the right
   4. DThe driver going straight
   Show answer

   C. The driver on the right When arrivals tie at an uncontrolled intersection, the driver on the left yields so the driver on the right goes first. If one vehicle arrives clearly earlier, that vehicle goes first instead. The same left-yields-to-right rule applies when a signal is dark and the intersection is treated as an all-way stop.
