At a four-way stop, another car stops fully before you arrive. Both paths would conflict. Who should normally go first?
Correct answer: The car that stopped first, once it can proceed safely.
At a four-way stop, the first vehicle to arrive and stop normally proceeds first. Continue watching for a driver who fails to yield.

You and a vehicle on your right reach a four-way stop at the same time. Your paths conflict. What should you do?
Correct answer: Yield to the vehicle on your right.

You and an oncoming car have the same permission to enter. You want to turn left while the other car will continue straight. What should you do?
Correct answer: Yield to the oncoming car before turning across its path.
A left-turning driver yields to opposing traffic whose path would be crossed. A turn signal communicates intent but does not give priority.

At an uncontrolled intersection, you and a vehicle to your right approach at about the same time and your paths conflict. What is the proper response?
Correct answer: Yield to the vehicle on your right while checking that the intersection is safe.
The handbook gives the vehicle on the right priority in this situation. Road appearance and vehicle size do not determine the right-of-way.

You approach an intersection and see a vehicle already lawfully crossing in your path. What should you do?
Correct answer: Let that vehicle clear before entering.
Yield to traffic already in the intersection. The right-side rule for simultaneous arrivals does not authorize a collision with a vehicle already crossing.

You are leaving a driveway across a sidewalk and onto a street. To whom must you yield?
Correct answer: Pedestrians using the sidewalk and traffic on the street.
A driver entering from a driveway must check the sidewalk and roadway. Crossing one does not grant priority over the other.

You approach a roundabout while vehicles are circulating through the lane you would enter. What should you do?
Correct answer: Yield to circulating traffic and enter when there is a safe gap.
Roundabout entry traffic yields to vehicles already circulating. Select the proper approach lane and avoid forcing another driver to brake.

You are circulating in a roundabout in the lane designated for your exit. What is the appropriate exit procedure?
Correct answer: Follow the lane guidance, watch for conflicts, and signal right as you prepare to exit.
Roundabouts circulate counterclockwise. Lane guidance and a right exit signal help others anticipate your movement; they do not remove the duty to avoid conflicts.

At an uncontrolled T-intersection, you approach on the road that ends as another car approaches on the through road at about the same time. Who yields?

Nevada has a specific rule for a road that ends at the intersection: its driver yields to the vehicle on the through highway.

A roundabout has a raised truck apron beside the center island. How should an ordinary car use it?
Correct answer: Stay off the truck apron and follow the designated traffic lane.
The apron gives large trucks additional turning room. It is not an extra travel or passing lane for cars.

After stopping at a stop sign, you see a car close enough on the through road that it would have to brake if you entered. What should you do?
Correct answer: Keep yielding until there is a safe gap.
A required stop does not grant priority over approaching through traffic that is an immediate hazard.
