  1. GDL & fees

    1. How long must you hold a Florida learner's license before you can be tested for a Class E driver license?

    • A 6 months
    • B 9 months
    • C 12 months, or until you turn 18 — whichever comes first
    • D 24 months in all cases

    Correct answer: C. Florida requires you to hold a learner's license at least 12 months or until your 18th birthday, whichever comes first. The waiting period guarantees a full year of supervised practice. Remember: one year or age 18, whichever arrives first.

    2. Before you can get a Florida Class E license as a minor, an adult must certify how much supervised driving practice?

    • A 30 hours, with 5 at night
    • B 50 hours, including 10 at night
    • C 75 hours, including 15 at night
    • D 100 hours, all during daylight

    Correct answer: B. Florida law requires a parent, guardian, or responsible adult 21 or older to certify 50 hours of behind-the-wheel practice, 10 of them at night. Night driving is riskier for new drivers. Memory hook: fifty total, ten after dark.

    3. During the first three months after Florida issues your learner's license, when are you allowed to drive?

    • A Only during daylight hours
    • B Until 10 p.m. every day
    • C Any hour, as long as a parent rides along
    • D Only between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m.

    Correct answer: A. Florida limits new learner's license holders to daylight driving for the first three months; after that you may drive until 10 p.m. Visibility is easiest in daylight while your skills are newest. Think: three months of sunshine first.

  4. GDL & fees

    4. A licensed 16-year-old in Florida is driving alone at midnight and is not headed to or from work. Which statement is true?

    • A It is legal, because a driver license removes all hour limits
    • B It is legal, because 16-year-olds may drive until 1 a.m.
    • C It is legal if the driver stays on neighborhood streets
    • D It is not allowed — licensed 16-year-olds may drive unsupervised only between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m.

    Correct answer: D. Florida lets licensed 16-year-olds drive only between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. unless accompanied by a licensed driver 21 or older or traveling to or from work. Late-night crashes peak for teens. Hook: sixteen stops at eleven.

  5. GDL & fees

    5. Which course must every first-time driver complete before applying for a license in Florida?

    • A A defensive-driving refresher course
    • B Traffic Law and Substance Abuse Education (TLSAE)
    • C A motorcycle safety course
    • D An advanced driver improvement course

    Correct answer: B. Florida requires anyone never licensed in any state or country to pass the Traffic Law and Substance Abuse Education course before applying. It introduces traffic laws and impairment risks early. Hook: TLSAE is Florida's ticket to a first license.

  6. GDL & fees

    6. You are convicted of a moving violation while holding a Florida learner's license. What happens to your wait for a driver license?

    • A Nothing changes if you pay the fine
    • B You only have to retake the knowledge exam
    • C The holding period extends one year from the conviction date, or until you turn 18
    • D Your learner's license is permanently revoked

    Correct answer: C. A moving-violation conviction stretches Florida's learner holding period to one full year from the conviction date, or until age 18, whichever comes first. Clean supervised practice is the whole point of the GDL year. Hook: a ticket restarts the clock.

    7. You fail the Florida Class E Knowledge Exam on your first try. What does the state charge for each retest?

    • A $10
    • B $20
    • C $48
    • D Nothing — retests are free

    Correct answer: A. Florida charges a $10 fee for each Class E Knowledge Exam retest, and $20 for a driving skills retest. The fee nudges applicants to study the handbook before trying again. Hook: ten to rewrite, twenty to redrive.

  8. Alcohol & drugs

    8. Under Florida's zero-tolerance law, what immediately happens to a driver under 21 who registers a blood alcohol level of 0.02% or more?

    • A A written warning for a first offense
    • B License suspension for six months
    • C Only a $48 reinstatement fee
    • D Thirty days of community service

    Correct answer: B. Florida immediately suspends the license of any driver under 21 who registers 0.02% or more — six months for a first offense, one year for a second. The zero-tolerance rule leaves no measurable-alcohol margin for minors. Hook: point-oh-two, six months gone.

  9. Alcohol & drugs

    9. What fine does Florida law set for a first DUI conviction?

    • A $100 to $250
    • B $250 to $500
    • C $500 to $1,000
    • D $2,000 to $4,000

    Correct answer: C. Florida Statute 316.193 sets the fine for a first DUI conviction between $500 and $1,000, plus up to six months of imprisonment. Steep penalties underline how seriously Florida treats impaired driving. Hook: first DUI, five hundred to a grand.

  10. Alcohol & drugs

    10. A Florida driver under 21 refuses a breath test for the first time. How long is the license suspension?

    • A 30 days
    • B 3 months
    • C 6 months
    • D 12 months

    Correct answer: D. Florida suspends drivers under 21 for 12 months on a first breath-test refusal — double the six-month suspension for testing at 0.02% or more. Refusing the test does not help you. Hook: refuse once, lose a whole year.

  11. Speed

    11. In an urbanized area of Florida, what is the highest speed limit that may be posted in a school zone?

    • A 15 mph
    • B 20 mph
    • C 25 mph
    • D 35 mph

    Correct answer: B. Florida caps school zone speed limits at 20 mph in urbanized areas, and generally no lower than 15 mph, enforced around arrival and dismissal times. Slow speeds protect children crossing. Hook: two-zero wherever kids come and go.

  12. Speed

    12. You are on a four-lane Florida interstate posted at 70 mph. What is the minimum speed you may normally travel?

    • A 50 mph
    • B 40 mph
    • C 45 mph
    • D There is no minimum

    Correct answer: A. Florida sets a 40 mph minimum on four-lane interstate highways, rising to 50 mph wherever the posted limit is 70. Minimum speeds prevent dangerous speed gaps between vehicles. Hook: at seventy up top, fifty is the floor.

  13. Sharing the road

    13. An oncoming school bus in Florida displays its stop signal. On which road may you continue without stopping?

    • A Any road with a center turn lane
    • B Any road with four or more lanes
    • C A road divided only by painted double yellow lines
    • D A divided highway with a raised barrier or an unpaved median at least 5 feet wide

    Correct answer: D. Florida drivers must stop for a school bus's stop signal from either direction, except oncoming traffic on a highway divided by a raised barrier, physical barrier, or unpaved space at least five feet wide. Children may cross otherwise. Hook: no real divider, everybody stops.

  14. Safety

    14. Under the Florida Ban on Texting While Driving Law, can a police officer stop you solely for texting behind the wheel?

    • A Yes — texting while driving is a primary offense
    • B No — you must commit another violation first
    • C Yes, but only on interstate highways
    • D No — the ban applies only to drivers under 18

    Correct answer: A. Florida's texting ban authorizes officers to stop a vehicle and cite the driver solely for manually typing or reading messages while driving. Eyes-off-the-road crashes drove the law. Hook: in Florida, texting alone is ticket enough.

  15. Emergencies

    15. On a two-lane Florida road posted at 45 mph, an ambulance is stopped ahead with lights flashing. How fast may you drive as you pass it?

    • A 45 mph, if you steer wide of it
    • B 40 mph
    • C 35 mph
    • D 25 mph

    Correct answer: D. Florida's Move Over law requires slowing to 20 mph below the posted limit on a two-lane road — and to just 5 mph where the limit is 20 or less. The buffer shields roadside responders. Hook: minus twenty saves lives.

  16. GDL & fees

    16. Which agency administers the learner's-permit knowledge test in Florida?

    • A Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV)
    • B The Federal Highway Administration
    • C The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
    • D The US Department of Education

    Correct answer: A. In Florida, driver licensing — including the permit knowledge test — is run by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV). Federal agencies write guidance and fund programs, but they do not hand you a Florida permit. When in doubt, start at the FLHSMV site.

    17. You need to confirm a Florida permit rule you saw on a practice site. What is the authoritative place to check?

    • A The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) website or official Florida driver handbook
    • B A random social-media reel with no date
    • C A forum post from 2014
    • D Any paid app's splash screen

    Correct answer: A. Practice sites, including this one, can be wrong or out of date. Florida's FLHSMV publishes the handbook and the current rule. If two sources disagree, the official Florida page wins. Date-stamp what you read.

    18. Who writes the official new-driver (graduated licensing) rules that apply on Florida roads?

    • A The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) and Florida law
    • B A national driving school franchise
    • C Wikipedia editors
    • D Your insurance agent's blog

    Correct answer: A. GDL hours, night limits, and passenger rules are Florida law, explained by the FLHSMV. A school or insurer may summarize them, but they are not the source. Learn the Florida version, not a generic US version.

    • A Class E Knowledge Exam
    • B The federal interstate qualifying exam
    • C The commercial learner permit skills pad
    • D The motorcycle only road course

    Correct answer: A. The FLHSMV names the Florida exam the Class E Knowledge Exam. Informal names like permit test or written test point at the same test. Use the official name when you book or look up retake rules.

    • B Only as a paid paperback with no public copy
    • C Exclusively inside a third-party app store listing
    • D It is not published; testers invent questions

    Correct answer: A. The FLHSMV publishes the Florida handbook for free. That book is the source the knowledge test is written from. Our questions are original study items grounded in those rules, not a substitute for reading the handbook.

    21. What is the minimum age to apply for a learner's permit in Florida?

    • A 15
    • B 14
    • C 18
    • D 21

    Correct answer: A. Florida lets you apply for a learner's permit at 15, according to the FLHSMV. You still have to pass the knowledge and vision screens and meet any parent-consent rules. Age opens the door; it does not skip the test.

    • A 50

    • C 100
    • D 5

    Correct answer: A. The FLHSMV publishes a 50-question Class E Knowledge Exam in Florida. Practice tests on this site are 30 questions so you can train in short sets; the real count is 50. Aim to beat the official passing score, not just finish.

    • A 40
    • B 1
    • C 50
    • D 2

    Correct answer: A. Florida requires 40 correct out of 50 on the Class E Knowledge Exam. That is the FLHSMV's published bar, not a rumor. Practice until you clear it with room to spare so one misread question does not fail you.

    • D 99%

    Correct answer: A. You need 80% to pass the Florida Class E Knowledge Exam. Percentages feel abstract until you miss a cluster of signs. Train above the line so test-day nerves do not drop you under 80%.

  25. Alcohol & drugs

    25. For a driver 21 or older in Florida, the per-se BAC limit is:

    • A 0.08%
    • B 0.12%
    • C 0.15%
    • D 0.20%

    Correct answer: A. Florida sets the adult per-se limit at 0.08%. That is a legal line, not a recommendation to drink up to it. Impairment starts earlier, and Florida can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.

    26. Drivers under 21 in Florida are over the youth alcohol limit at which level?

    • A 0.02%
    • B 0.08%
    • C 0.10%
    • D 0.15%

    Correct answer: A. Florida uses a zero-tolerance style rule for under-21 drivers: 0.02%. Adult limits do not apply to a teen permit holder. If you are under 21 in Florida, treat alcohol and keys as incompatible.

  27. Speed

    27. Unless a sign posts another limit, the usual residential or city default in Florida is:

    • A 30 mph
    • B 55 mph
    • C 70 mph
    • D 15 mph unless signed

    Correct answer: A. Florida's typical unposted residential / city default is 30 mph. School zones and work zones drop lower. If houses line the street and no sign argues, start at 30 mph and watch the next plaque.

    Grounded in: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0300-0399/0316/Sections/0316.183.html

    28. What is the highest posted highway speed limit in Florida?

    • A 70 mph
    • B 25 mph
    • C 15 mph
    • D 100 mph

    Correct answer: A. Florida's highest posted highway limit is 70 mph. Most stretches are lower, and work zones or weather can cut it further. Do not assume every freeway in Florida is signed at the state maximum.

    29. Does the FLHSMV offer any online option for the Florida Class E Knowledge Exam?

    • A Yes, in some cases — check eligibility on the official site
    • B No, never, for any applicant
    • C Only through a social-media quiz
    • D Only if you already hold a CDL

    Correct answer: A. Florida does offer an online knowledge-test path for some applicants. Eligibility, ID rules, and camera rules change, so confirm them on the FLHSMV site before you plan around it. An online test still means no handbook in your lap.

  30. GDL & fees

    30. Which fee listing matches what the FLHSMV currently publishes for a Florida permit or license application?

    • A $48 (original Class E license, includes learner's license); an additional $6.25 service fee may apply at tax collector offices. No extra fee to upgrade to a Class E license when the learner's license is surrendered with no name/address change.
    • B There is never a fee in Florida
    • C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
    • D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA

    Correct answer: A. The FLHSMV lists this Florida amount: $48 (original Class E license, includes learner's license); an additional $6.25 service fee may apply at tax collector offices. No extra fee to upgrade to a Class E license when the learner's license is surrendered with no name/address change.. Fees change, and extras like photos or late replacements can stack.

    31. Before Florida will issue a first learner's license, which education course does FLHSMV require?

    • A A Traffic Law and Substance Abuse Education (TLSAE) course
    • B A motorcycle safety foundation weekend only
    • C A federal CDL theory course
    • D No course is required for any Florida teen

    Correct answer: A. Florida requires a TLSAE course for a first learner's license (and for anyone who has never held a driver license). It is a separate box from the 50-question Class E exam. Course first, then the knowledge test.

    32. During the first three months with a Florida learner's license, when may you drive?

    • A Any hour, as long as a licensed adult 21 or older is beside you
    • B Daylight hours only, and still with a licensed driver 21 or older in the front seat
    • C Only on weekends
    • D Alone, but only to school

    Correct answer: B. Florida learners spend the first three months in daylight-only supervised driving. After that they may drive until 10 p.m. with the same 21-or-older supervisor. Daylight first, then 10 p.m., never solo on a learner license.

  33. Alcohol & drugsHandbook scenario

    33. Florida's handbook asks which skill alcohol damages first: judgment or vision?

    • A Vision, then judgment much later
    • B Judgment is affected first; vision changes come after
    • C Neither is affected under two drinks
    • D Only hearing is affected

    Correct answer: B. FLHSMV's study set highlights that alcohol hits judgment before vision. People feel 'fine' while already making bad gaps. That is why Florida treats any impaired trip as a fail, not a vision-only problem.

    34. In Florida, a load sticks more than four feet beyond the back of your vehicle. What must you do?

    • A Nothing, if you stay under 40 mph
    • B Mark the projection clearly — flags or cloth by day, and lights at night
    • C Drive only on dirt roads
    • D Call FLHSMV for an escort car every time

    Correct answer: B. Florida requires a clearly visible marker when a load projects more than four feet: a flag or cloth in daylight and lamps at night. The extra length is invisible to the car behind you unless you mark it. Four feet out, mark it.

    35. A 16-year-old has just earned a Florida Class E license. When may they drive unsupervised on a typical night?

    • A Any hour
    • B Only from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., unless going to or from work or riding with a licensed driver 21 or older
    • C Only after midnight
    • D Never until age 18

    Correct answer: B. Florida 16-year-olds with a Class E license are limited to 6 a.m.–11 p.m. unless they are traveling to or from work or a licensed driver 21 or older is along. Seventeen-year-olds get a later window (5 a.m.–1 a.m.). Age 16 means 11 p.m. is the usual cutoff.

    • B Florida traffic laws, safe driving practices, and identifying traffic controls
    • C Only road-sign colors, nothing else
    • D Only insurance math

    Correct answer: B. FLHSMV states the 50-question Class E exam covers Florida traffic laws, safe driving practices, and traffic-control identification. Study all three, not just signs. Forty correct (80%) is the pass line.

  37. ParkingHandbook scenario

    37. Which Florida no-parking distances does the official driver handbook list?

    • A 15 feet from a hydrant, 20 feet from an intersection, 30 feet from a flashing signal or stop sign, and 50 feet from a railroad crossing
    • B 10 feet for every item
    • C 50 feet for every item
    • D No listed distances

    Correct answer: A. Florida forbids parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, 20 feet of an intersection, 20 feet of a fire, ambulance, or rescue-station entrance, 30 feet of a flashing signal, stop sign, or traffic signal, and 50 feet of a railroad crossing. Learn 15 / 20 / 30 / 50 as a set.

  38. SignalsHandbook scenario

    38. A Florida traffic signal shows a red arrow. After a complete stop, may you turn?

    • A You may turn right if there is no NO TURN ON RED sign and the way is clear, or left from one-way onto one-way traffic moving left
    • B No turn of any kind is allowed until a green arrow appears
    • C You may turn without stopping
    • D Only trucks may turn

    Correct answer: A. Florida’s red-arrow rule says do not make the movement until a green light appears, then lists two exceptions after a stop: a right turn if there is no NO TURN ON RED sign and the way is clear, and a left from a one-way street onto a one-way street with traffic moving left. Yield to pedestrians and oncoming traffic.

  39. SafetyHandbook scenario

    39. When must you use headlights in Florida besides sunset to sunrise?

    • A When you turn on your windshield wipers, and whenever visibility is low; parking lights are not a substitute
    • B Only after 10 p.m.
    • C Never in rain
    • D Only on interstates

    Correct answer: A. Florida law requires headlights between sunset and sunrise. The handbook also says turn headlights on when you turn on windshield wipers, and in low visibility. Do not drive on parking lights. Dim high beams within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle and within 300 feet of a vehicle ahead.

  40. Right-of-wayHandbook scenario

    40. A Florida funeral lead vehicle enters an intersection. What must other road users do?

    • A Yield; the rest of the procession may follow through regardless of the signal, and you must not drive between the vehicles
    • B Cut through if your light is green
    • C Honk to break the line
    • D Join the line to get the same right-of-way

    Correct answer: A. Florida requires motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians to yield to funeral processions. When the lead vehicle enters an intersection, the remaining vehicles may follow through regardless of traffic-control devices. Procession vehicles should have headlights on or may use flashing hazards so others do not drive between them.

  41. Right-of-wayHandbook scenario

    41. You approach a visually impaired pedestrian in Florida who is carrying a white cane with a red tip or is guided by a service animal. What must you do?

    • A Come to a complete stop, yield the right-of-way, and use extra caution
    • B Tap the horn so they can locate you
    • C Keep your speed if your light is green
    • D Pass within two feet

    Correct answer: A. Florida tells drivers to come to a complete stop, yield, and use extra caution for a visually impaired pedestrian carrying a white cane with a red tip or guided by a service animal. The same extra caution applies to mobility-impaired pedestrians and children. A horn startles someone using sound to navigate.

    • A At least 100 feet before the turn
    • B A car length
    • C Only after you enter the intersection
    • D 500 feet in every town

    Correct answer: A. Florida requires a turn signal at least 100 feet before you turn. Give other drivers time to see the signal before you start the move. A late blinker is how rear-end crashes start in the turn lane.

    43. A Florida signal shows a flashing yellow arrow. What does it allow?

    • A A turn in the direction of the arrow after you yield to oncoming traffic, which still has a green light, and to pedestrians
    • B A protected turn with opposing traffic held
    • C No turns until a circular green
    • D A stop as at a red light

    Correct answer: A. Florida’s flashing yellow arrow allows the indicated turn, but oncoming traffic has a green. Yield to those vehicles and to pedestrians, then turn when it is safe. A solid green arrow is the protected movement testers contrast with this flash.

    • A Like a stop sign: stop, then proceed when safe
    • B Like a yield sign
    • C Like a green light at night
    • D Wait for a circular green

    Correct answer: A. Florida uses flashing red lights at dangerous intersections and tells you to treat them like a stop sign. Stop fully, then go when it is safe. A flashing yellow at the same kind of location is only a caution, which is the swap testers want.

    45. You must stop at a Florida highway-railroad crossing. How far from the crossing should you stay, and may you stop on the tracks?

    • A Do not stop on the tracks or within 15 feet of the crossing
    • B Stop with your bumper on the nearest rail
    • C Stop 100 feet away in every case
    • D Stop only if you hear a horn

    Correct answer: A. Florida says do not stop on the railroad tracks or within 15 feet of the crossing. If a warning device, gate, or flagger shows a train, stop, then cross only when the way is clear. Fifteen feet is the clearance testers mix with parking distances.

    46. Florida law says you must give bicyclists how much clearance when you drive next to or pass them?

    • A A minimum of three feet, and you must use caution and a slow speed
    • B A Florida mirror’s width only
    • C No extra space on a two-lane road
    • D Six inches if you honk first

    Correct answer: A. Florida requires a minimum of three feet of clearance and caution at a slow speed when you drive next to or pass a bicyclist. On a two-lane road, pass as you would a slow-moving vehicle, and only when it is safe. Testers confuse this with Florida’s following-distance count. Three feet is the pass gap.

    47. A disabled motor vehicle sits on a Florida shoulder showing hazard lights, flares, or emergency signage. What extra Move Over duty applies?

    • A Move over or slow as you would for other protected roadside vehicles; Florida’s Move Over Law covers that disabled vehicle
    • B Ignore it; Florida Move Over applies only to ambulances
    • C Stop in the travel lane behind it
    • D Pass at the posted Florida interstate speed

    Correct answer: A. Florida expanded Move Over to cover a disabled motor vehicle that is stopped and displaying warning or hazard lights, emergency flares, or posted emergency signage, and to vehicles with people visibly present. It is not limited to police and ambulances. Give the same lane-change or slow-down buffer you would give a marked responder.

    • B Only inside a Florida parking lot
    • C Anywhere a Florida road is wider than two lanes
    • D Three-point turns are banned on every Florida street

    Correct answer: A. Florida says use a three-point turn only if the road is too narrow for a U-turn and you cannot go around the block. Never make a three-point turn or a U-turn on a curve, a hill, or where a sign prohibits the U-turn. Testers try the move on a crest because no one is in sight. In Florida that is exactly when you must not turn around.

  49. SignalsHandbook scenario

    49. After a complete stop at a Florida red light, when may you turn left?

    • A From a one-way street onto another one-way street, after yielding, unless a sign forbids the turn
    • B From any Florida two-way street after a rolling stop
    • C Never; Florida bans every left on red
    • D Only after 10 p.m. in a business district

    Correct answer: A. Florida lets you turn right on red after a full stop and yield unless a sign says otherwise. The same statute allows a left on red from a one-way street onto another one-way street after you stop and yield. Testers invent a Florida ban on every left on red. The one-way-to-one-way left is the exception, and a No Turn on Red sign still wins.

    50. Florida’s Move Over law names more than police, ambulances, and tow trucks. Which other stopped vehicles with warning lights does it also protect?

    • A Sanitation, utility, and road or bridge maintenance or construction vehicles
    • B Only Florida school buses on a two-lane
    • C Only unmarked Florida detective cars
    • D None; Move Over is limited to red-and-blue emergency lights

    Correct answer: A. Florida’s Move Over law protects law-enforcement, emergency, tow, sanitation, utility, and road or bridge maintenance or construction vehicles showing warning lights, plus a disabled motor vehicle using hazards, flares, or signage. On a multi-lane road you vacate the nearest lane or, if you cannot, slow to 20 mph below the posted limit. Testers leave out sanitation and utility crews. Those Florida workers are in the same statute.

    • B Any Florida solo driver if the diamond is faded
    • C A Florida truck-trailer combo if two people are aboard
    • D Cross the Florida striped buffer anywhere to save time

    Correct answer: A. Florida reserves some left lanes for vehicles with two or more occupants or for hybrid/low-emission vehicles that have the required decal and completed FLHSMV Form 83027. HOV lanes use signs and diamond pavement marks and are separated by a striped buffer. Enter and exit only at designated points. Testers put a solo Florida car across the buffer. Occupancy or a real LEV decal, and a marked opening, are the gates.

    • B Wave and keep the Florida through speed
    • C Treat the Florida flash as a broken yellow only
    • D Stop only if a Florida officer points

    Correct answer: A. Florida’s handbook tells pedestrians to push the button to activate a rectangular rapid flashing beacon, then use the crosswalk once the lights flash and approaching traffic stops. Motorists must stop and yield to pedestrians in that crosswalk. Testers roll through a Florida RRFB as if it were optional. The flash is a stop-and-yield, not a courtesy blink.

    • C Fifteen feet, the Florida hydrant number
    • D Anywhere a Florida shoulder is paved

    Correct answer: A. Florida’s no-parking list includes 30 feet of a rural mailbox on a state highway between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Testers reuse the 15-foot hydrant number or treat the box as free curb. Thirty feet during carrier hours is the Florida mailbox trap, separate from the 15 / 20 / 30 / 50 set.

    • B Yes, if Florida flashers are on
    • C Only at night on a Florida interstate
    • D Yes, if the Florida hydrant is clear

    Correct answer: A. Florida Statute 316.1945 forbids stopping, standing, or parking on the roadway side of any vehicle stopped or parked at the edge or curb of a street — double parking. Testers squeeze alongside a Florida curb car to “just run in.” The travel lane stays a travel lane, separate from the 12-inch curb extra.
