A white rectangular sign reads DO NOT PASS. What does it tell you about overtaking an ordinary car here?
Correct answer: Do not overtake that car by passing here.
DO NOT PASS is a regulatory passing restriction. It is distinct from DO NOT ENTER and from a stop control.

A ONE WAY sign points right at the street entrance. Which direction does it allow along that street?
Correct answer: To the right, in the direction shown by the arrow.
The arrow tells you the permitted traffic direction on the one-way street. It does not make the street two-way during a gap in traffic.

Below a STOP sign, an Oregon plaque says RIGHT TURN PERMITTED WITHOUT STOPPING. Which movement has the stated exception?
Correct answer: A right turn; other movements still have to stop and yield.
This supplementary plaque applies specifically to right-turning traffic. It does not cancel stop requirements for other movements or allow a driver to disregard conflicting traffic.

A RIGHT LANE sign shows bus and bicycle symbols above ONLY. Who may continue straight through the intersection using that transit lane?
Correct answer: Transit vehicles and people bicycling, as indicated by the sign.
Read the vehicles named by the sign. A transit-only lane is not an ordinary through lane for private cars; bicycles may continue where their symbol is included.

A transit-only lane sign also says RIGHT TURNS PERMITTED. How may an ordinary driver use the lane to reach the next right turn?
Correct answer: Briefly enter for the turn, yielding to transit vehicles and cyclists.
The supplement allows limited entry for the indicated right-turn access. Yield to buses and people biking in the lane and merge behind them after they pass; it is not permission for continuous through travel.

A NO TURN ON RED sign faces your lane. What does it mean for your intended turn while the signal is red?
Correct answer: Wait for the signal to turn green before turning.
This sign removes permission to turn during the red indication. A clear gap alone does not override the posted restriction.

A reserved lane is signed HOV 2+ during the current hours. How many occupants does the sign require for an ordinary eligible car?
Correct answer: At least two people, including the driver.
The number on the HOV sign gives the minimum occupancy. Read its operating hours and other conditions rather than assuming every reserved lane uses the same threshold.

A crossing warning shows both a bicycle and a walking person. Which users should you expect where the multiuse path crosses?
Correct answer: People bicycling and pedestrians.
The combined symbols identify a multiuse path crossing. Look for both kinds of users; the sign does not give motor vehicles priority over them.

What does a yellow chevron with a black right-pointing arrowhead show at a bend?
Correct answer: The road changes direction sharply to the right at that location.
Chevrons mark a sharp curve or change in road direction at the sign. Follow the alignment at a suitable speed; this is not an added-lane sign.

You pass an Oregon SAFETY CORRIDOR sign. What is the reason this stretch has been identified?
Correct answer: Its history includes more fatal and serious-injury crashes than the statewide average.
A safety corridor draws attention to a higher-crash stretch of highway. The manual recommends using headlights for safety; the designation does not remove normal traffic controls.
