What should a horse-drawn-vehicle warning make a motorist anticipate?
Correct answer: Slow-moving horse-drawn vehicles may cross or share the road.

A NO TRAIN HORN plaque is posted below a railroad-crossing sign. What should you understand?
Correct answer: Do not depend on hearing a train horn at this quiet-zone crossing.
A quiet-zone notice does not mean there are no trains. Look for trains and obey the crossing controls; silence is not clearance.

Why are drums, cones, vertical panels and barricades arranged along a work-zone route?
Correct answer: To guide vehicles through the intended safe traffic path.
Follow the channelized route and accompanying controls. Open space between devices is not an invitation to enter a closed area.

A two-way road has the single broken yellow center line shown. What does the marking permit?
Correct answer: Passing from either direction when the maneuver is otherwise safe and lawful.
A broken yellow center line identifies a passing-permitted section in both directions. It does not remove the need for a clear view, a safe gap, and compliance with other restrictions.

You are in the lane beside the solid yellow line in this pair. What does that mean for passing a slower car?
Correct answer: You must not cross the center lines for that pass.
The center-line pattern applies according to the line nearest your lane. A solid yellow line on your side prohibits passing across it.

You are beside the broken yellow line, with a solid yellow line beyond it. How does the marking affect a proposed pass?
Correct answer: Passing may be allowed from your side if traffic, visibility, and other rules permit.
A broken line on your side permits a pass when safe and otherwise lawful. Drivers on the solid-line side do not have the same passing permission.

What do the two solid yellow center lines tell drivers who want to pass an ordinary car?
Correct answer: Passing across the lines is prohibited in both directions.
Double solid yellow lines establish a no-passing section for both traffic directions. This item concerns overtaking a car, not a separate left-turn maneuver.

You need to turn left into a driveway across solid yellow center lines, with no sign prohibiting the turn. What does Nebraska's handbook say?
Correct answer: The lines do not prohibit this driveway turn, but you must wait until it is safe.
Nebraska’s marking rule preserves a lawful left turn into or from an alley, private road or driveway unless signs prohibit it. Wait for a safe opening; double yellow is not permission to pass an ordinary moving car.

What does the broken white line between the two same-direction lanes indicate?

Near an intersection, what does the single solid white line between these same-direction lanes communicate?
Correct answer: Lane changes are discouraged near the intersection.
Nebraska uses solid white lines for turn lanes and to discourage lane changes near intersections. It is not a universal absolute prohibition; obey lane arrows and make any lawful movement safely.

What is the purpose of the center lane marked with opposing left-turn arrows and solid/broken yellow boundaries?
Correct answer: Left turns shared by traffic from either direction.
Nebraska’s manual reserves this shared lane for left turns and prohibits using it to pass. Do not import another state’s additional U-turn permission into this rule.

A broad white stop line is painted before an intersection controlled by a STOP sign. What does that line show?
