New Hampshire permit test study guide
All 175 New Hampshire-specific questions in our bank, including 141 handbook-scenario extras, each with its correct answer and a plain-English explanation. These are original questions grounded in official DMV rules — not a dump of a competitor's file.
Search it, filter it by topic, or hide the answers and quiz yourself. Quote the short versions from the verified answers page, and take the timed practice tests when you want exam conditions.
1. New Hampshire does not issue learner's permits. How can you legally practice driving on New Hampshire roads before you have a license?
- A Get a temporary practice permit by mail from the DMV
- B Drive alone, but only in daylight within your home town
- C Be at least 15½ and ride with a licensed adult 25 or older, such as a parent or guardian
- D Wait until 18, because unlicensed practice driving is always illegal
Correct answer: C. Under RSA 263:25, New Hampshire skips permits entirely: from age 15½ you may practice with a parent, guardian, or responsible licensed adult 25 or older beside you. Remember: no paper permit — the supervising adult is your permit.
2. You hold a New Hampshire Youth Operator License and are under 18. During which hours are you banned from driving?
- A Midnight to 5:00 a.m.
- B 1:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m.
- C 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
- D 10:00 p.m. until dawn
Correct answer: B. New Hampshire bars youth operators under 18 from driving between 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m., hours that combine darkness, fatigue, and little traffic supervision. Hook: one-to-four, stay parked — three quiet hours, no driving.
3. You earned your New Hampshire Youth Operator License two months ago and you are 16. Without a licensed adult 25 or older aboard, how many non-family passengers under age 25 may ride with you?
- A One
- B Two
- C Three, if all wear seat belts
- D None at all
Correct answer: A. For your first six months licensed, New Hampshire lets under-18 youth operators carry only one non-family passenger under 25 unless a licensed adult 25 or older rides along. Think: six months, one young friend — family members don't count.
4. Before applying for a New Hampshire driver license at 16 or 17, how much supervised practice driving must you log beyond your driver education course?
- A 20 hours, with 5 at night
- B 30 hours, all in daylight
- C 50 hours, with 15 at night
- D 40 hours, with at least 10 at night
Correct answer: D. New Hampshire requires under-18 applicants to log 40 extra supervised hours, including at least 10 after dark, on top of driver ed. Night driving is riskier and needs practice. Hook: forty total, a quarter at night.
5. As a New Hampshire youth operator under 20, you are convicted of a qualifying traffic offense for the first time. After a hearing, how long can the DMV suspend your license?
- A 5 to 10 days
- B 20 to 40 days
- C 45 to 90 days
- D 90 to 180 days
Correct answer: B. New Hampshire's RSA 263:14 sets escalating suspensions for drivers under 20: 20-40 days for a first conviction, 45-90 for a second, 90-180 for a third. Hook: the window roughly doubles each time you reoffend.
6. You pick up two speeding tickets in New Hampshire during your first two years as a youth operator. Beyond any suspension, what does the state require?
- A Retaking the knowledge test within 30 days
- B A $1,000 civil fine paid to the town
- C Carrying SR-22 insurance for three years
- D Installing a GPS speed logger in your car
Correct answer: C. Two or more speeding convictions in your first two years force a New Hampshire youth operator to file SR-22 high-risk insurance for three years from the second hearing. Hook: two tickets, three years of costly proof.
7. How is a New Hampshire Youth Operator License different from a standard New Hampshire operator license?
- A It is printed vertically and expires on your 21st birthday
- B It is bright orange and must be renewed every year
- C It only allows daytime driving statewide
- D It is identical except for a small star in the corner
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire issues drivers aged 16 to 20 a vertical license marked "Under 21 until (date)" that expires on the 21st birthday, costing $10 per year. Hook: the tall card retires the day you turn 21.
8. A New Hampshire school zone sign is posted near an elementary school. Around opening and dismissal times, what speed limit applies?
- A A flat 15 mph statewide
- B A flat 20 mph statewide
- C The posted limit, but with doubled fines
- D 10 mph below the usual posted limit
Correct answer: D. New Hampshire school-zone limits drop 10 mph below the posted speed during the 45-minute windows around school opening and closing. Children cross unpredictably then. Hook: subtract ten while kids stream in or out.
9. Traffic is light and the weather is clear on a New Hampshire interstate. What is the slowest you are normally allowed to drive?
- A 35 mph
- B 45 mph
- C 50 mph
- D There is no minimum speed
Correct answer: B. New Hampshire sets a 45 mph minimum on interstates in good conditions because very slow vehicles force others into risky lane changes and passes. Hook: the floor is 45 — crawl only when weather truly demands it.
10. A 17-year-old New Hampshire youth operator is convicted of driving more than 30 mph over the posted limit. What does this trigger?
- A Only a standard speeding fine
- B A written warning on a first offense
- C Extra penalties beyond the normal youth operator suspension
- D Nothing, unless a crash occurred
Correct answer: C. New Hampshire treats speeding more than 30 mph over the limit like DWI or reckless driving for youth operators: it stacks additional penalties on top of ordinary suspensions. Hook: thirty-over puts you in the most serious tier.
11. You are convicted of a first-offense DWI in New Hampshire. Besides a Class B misdemeanor record, what penalties should you expect?
- A At least a $500 fine and losing your license for 9 months to 2 years
- B A $100 fine and a 30-day suspension
- C Community service only, if no crash happened
- D A fine, but no license suspension for first offenses
Correct answer: A. A first New Hampshire DWI brings a fine of at least $500, license loss from 9 months up to 2 years, and a required impaired-driver education program. Hook: five hundred minimum, most of a year gone.
12. You are 19 and driving alone in New Hampshire. A friend asks you to carry a sealed six-pack home in your trunk. What does state law say?
- A It is legal because the container is sealed
- B It is legal if a receipt is kept with the alcohol
- C It is legal only in the trunk, never the cabin
- D It is illegal — under-21 drivers cannot transport alcohol without a parent, guardian, or legal-age spouse present
Correct answer: D. New Hampshire forbids drivers under 21 from transporting liquor or beer anywhere in the vehicle unless a parent, guardian, or legal-age spouse rides along. Sealed or not doesn't matter. Hook: under 21, no cargo runs with alcohol.
13. Under New Hampshire law, which vehicle occupants are actually required to wear a seat belt or safety restraint?
- A Every occupant, in every seat
- B Only occupants under 18 years old
- C Only the driver and front-seat passenger
- D Only children under 12
Correct answer: B. New Hampshire law mandates safety restraints only for people under 18; adults are strongly urged, not required, to buckle up. Belts still prevent ejection and keep control. Hook: the legal line sits at your 18th birthday.
14. A school bus ahead of you on a two-lane New Hampshire road stops with red lights flashing and its stop arm out. What must you do?
- A Pass slowly on the left at 10 mph or less
- B Stop only if children are visibly crossing
- C Stop at least 25 feet away and wait until the bus moves or the lights stop
- D Stop for 10 seconds, then proceed with caution
Correct answer: C. New Hampshire requires every driver, from any direction, to stop at least 25 feet from a flashing-red school bus unless a physical barrier divides the road. Hook: red flash means freeze, twenty-five feet back.
15. You see a police cruiser with blue lights stopped on the shoulder of a New Hampshire highway. Under Sherrill's Law, what should you do?
- A Slow down and, if it is safe, move into a lane away from the stopped vehicle
- B Maintain speed but tap your horn as a warning
- C Stop completely beside the cruiser and await instructions
- D Turn on hazard lights and continue in your lane at full speed
Correct answer: A. Sherrill's Law (RSA 265:37-a) tells New Hampshire drivers to slow down, give wide berth, and vacate the blocked lane near emergency scenes or stopped vehicles with warning lights. Hook: see flashing lights, shift over and slow.
16. Which agency administers the learner's-permit knowledge test in New Hampshire?
- A Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
- B The Federal Highway Administration
- C The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
- D The US Department of Education
Correct answer: A. In New Hampshire, driver licensing — including the permit knowledge test — is run by the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Federal agencies write guidance and fund programs, but they do not hand you a New Hampshire permit. When in doubt, start at the DMV site.
17. You need to confirm a New Hampshire permit rule you saw on a practice site. What is the authoritative place to check?
- A The Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website or official New Hampshire 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. New Hampshire's DMV publishes the handbook and the current rule. If two sources disagree, the official New Hampshire page wins. Date-stamp what you read.
18. Who writes the official new-driver (graduated licensing) rules that apply on New Hampshire roads?
- A New Hampshire's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire law, explained by the DMV. A school or insurer may summarize them, but they are not the source. Learn the New Hampshire version, not a generic US version.
19. What does the DMV officially call the New Hampshire permit written exam?
- A Automated Knowledge Test
- B The federal interstate qualifying exam
- C The commercial learner permit skills pad
- D The motorcycle only road course
Correct answer: A. The New Hampshire Driver’s Manual names the written exam the Automated Knowledge Test: the knowledge test consists of 40 multiple choice questions pertaining to the rules of the road. Testers have 40 minutes to complete the test.
20. Where is the official New Hampshire driver handbook published?
- A By the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) at its official handbook URL
- 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 DMV publishes the New Hampshire 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. How many questions are on the official New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test?
- A 40
- B 10
- C 100
- D 5
Correct answer: A. The DMV publishes a 40-question Driver License Knowledge Test in New Hampshire. Practice tests on this site are 30 questions so you can train in short sets; the real count is 40. Aim to beat the official passing score, not just finish.
22. How many questions must you answer correctly to pass the New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test?
- A 32
- B 1
- C 40
- D 2
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire requires 32 correct out of 40 on the Driver License Knowledge Test. That is the DMV's published bar, not a rumor. Practice until you clear it with room to spare so one misread question does not fail you.
23. What passing score does the DMV publish for the New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test?
- A 80%
- B 50%
- C 40%
- D 99%
Correct answer: A. You need 80% to pass the New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test. Percentages feel abstract until you miss a cluster of signs. Train above the line so test-day nerves do not drop you under 80%.
24. For a driver 21 or older in New Hampshire, the per-se BAC limit is:
- A 0.08%
- B 0.12%
- C 0.15%
- D 0.20%
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.
25. Drivers under 21 in New Hampshire are over the youth alcohol limit at which level?
- A 0.02%
- B 0.08%
- C 0.10%
- D 0.15%
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire, treat alcohol and keys as incompatible.
26. Unless a sign posts another limit, the usual residential or city default in New Hampshire is:
- A 30 mph
- B 55 mph
- C 70 mph
- D 15 mph unless signed
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire'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.
27. What is the highest posted highway speed limit in New Hampshire?
- A 70 mph
- B 25 mph
- C 15 mph
- D 100 mph
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire'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 New Hampshire is signed at the state maximum.
28. Can you take the official New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test from home on the internet?
- A No. The DMV gives the Driver License Knowledge Test in person, not as a take-home web exam
- B Yes, anyone may take it on a phone in bed
- C Yes, but only on social media
- D Yes, and a screenshot of a practice test counts
Correct answer: A. The DMV administers the New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test in person. Practice tests online are study tools, not the official exam. Show up with the documents the DMV lists, and do not expect a home browser to replace the office test.
29. Which fee listing matches what the DMV currently publishes for a New Hampshire permit or license application?
- A $10 per year for a Youth Operator License (priced to age 21); $50 for a standard Operator license or $60 for a REAL ID Operator license. The license fee is paid before testing begins, and no separate knowledge-exam fee is listed.
- B There is never a fee in New Hampshire
- C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
- D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA
Correct answer: A. The DMV lists this New Hampshire amount: $10 per year for a Youth Operator License (priced to age 21); $50 for a standard Operator license or $60 for a REAL ID Operator license. The license fee is paid before testing begins, and no separate knowledge-exam fee is listed.. Fees change, and extras like photos or late replacements can stack. Confirm the number on the official fee page the day you go, and bring an accepted payment type.
30. If you fail the New Hampshire Driver License Knowledge Test, which statement matches the DMV's published retake rule?
- A If you fail the knowledge test (or road test), you must wait 10 calendar days before retesting (5 days for CDL applicants). Every exam is randomly generated, so a retake is a different test. Skipping a scheduled road test or canceling with less than 24 hours notice triggers a 30-day wait.
- B You are banned from driving in New Hampshire for life
- C You may retake it immediately with no limits, forever, for free, at any kiosk
- D The DMV never allows a second try
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire's published retake rule is: If you fail the knowledge test (or road test), you must wait 10 calendar days before retesting (5 days for CDL applicants). Every exam is randomly generated, so a retake is a different test. Skipping a scheduled road test or canceling with less than 24 hours notice triggers a 30-day wait. Use the wait to restudy the handbook chapters you missed. Showing up unprepared a second time just spends another attempt.
31. New Hampshire issues no learner's permit. Who must sit in the front seat when a 15½-year-old practices on public roads?
- A A parent, guardian, or responsible licensed adult age 25 or older
- B Any licensed 18-year-old
- C A 21-year-old classmate
- D No supervisor is required
Correct answer: A. Under RSA 263:25, anyone at least 15½ may practice-drive on public roads when accompanied in the front seat by a parent, guardian, or responsible licensed adult age 25 or older. There is no plastic permit card to lose — the supervisor rule is the permit.
32. Besides driver education, how much extra supervised driving must a New Hampshire applicant under 18 log, including night hours?
- A 40 hours with at least 10 at night
- B 50 hours including 10 at night
- C 30 hours with no night split
- D The course replaces every parent hour
Correct answer: A. Drivers under 18 must complete an approved driver-education course plus 40 hours of additional supervised driving, at least 10 at night, before applying at 16. Drivers licensed between 16 and 21 receive a vertical Youth Operator License that expires on their 21st birthday.
33. After a failed New Hampshire knowledge or road test, how long must you wait to retest?
- A 10 calendar days (5 days for CDL applicants)
- B The next morning
- C 30 days for every exam
- D You may retest the same afternoon
Correct answer: A. If you fail the knowledge test or road test, you wait 10 calendar days (5 days for CDL applicants). Every exam is randomly generated, so a retake is a different test. Skipping a scheduled road test or canceling with less than 24 hours notice triggers a 30-day wait.
34. During the first six months, how many non-family passengers under 25 may a New Hampshire youth operator under 18 carry unless a licensed adult 25 or older is aboard?
- A One
- B Three
- C None until 18
- D Any number after 1:00 a.m.
Correct answer: A. Youth operators under 18 may not drive between 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m., may carry no more than one non-family passenger under 25 during their first six months unless a licensed adult 25 or older is aboard, and may never carry more passengers than seat belts.
35. Which New Hampshire no-parking distances does the driver’s manual list?
- A 15 feet from a hydrant, 20 feet from a crosswalk at an intersection, 30 feet from a stop sign or signal, and 50 feet from the nearest rail
- B 10 feet for every item
- C 50 feet for every item
- D No listed distances
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire forbids parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection, 30 feet of a stop sign, yield sign, or traffic signal, 20 feet of a fire-station driveway (75 feet on the opposite side), and 50 feet of the nearest rail. Learn 15 / 20 / 30 / 50 as a set.
36. How far before a New Hampshire turn should you signal on a regular road versus a highway?
- A At least 100 feet before a turn, and at least 500 feet on the highway before changing lanes or turning
- B 50 feet everywhere
- C A car length
- D Only after you start the move
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers to signal at least 100 feet before a turn, and on the highway at least 500 feet before changing lanes or turning. Five hundred feet is the highway number testers swap with the city 100-foot rule.
37. When must New Hampshire headlights be on besides a half hour after sunset to a half hour before sunrise?
- A Whenever rain, snow, or fog interferes with the proper view of the road
- B Only after 10 p.m.
- C Never in rain
- D Only on interstates
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire law requires headlights from a half hour after sunset to a half hour before sunrise, and whenever rain, snow, or fog interferes with the proper view of the road. Do not drive on parking lights. Use low beams when following another vehicle.
38. A New Hampshire traffic signal shows a red arrow. What must you do?
- A Do not enter the intersection unless another indication shown at the same time permits the move
- B Turn after a rolling stop
- C Treat it like a flashing yellow
- D Follow the next lane’s circular green
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire says a red arrow means drivers may not enter the intersection unless permitted by other indications shown at the same time. Pedestrians facing a steady red arrow shall not enter the roadway unless a pedestrian signal directs otherwise.
39. A person carrying a white cane or using a harnessed guide dog is attempting to cross a New Hampshire roadway. What must you do?
- A Come to a complete stop until they have crossed
- 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. New Hampshire requires a complete stop whenever a person carrying a white cane or using a harnessed guide dog is attempting to cross a roadway. The cane is the international symbol of blindness. A horn startles someone using sound to navigate.
40. When must you stop for a New Hampshire school bus?
- A Whenever it is stopped with red lights flashing and/or the stop arm extended, unless the roadway is separated by a physical barrier
- B Only if you are behind the bus
- C Only in towns
- D Never if children look seated
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire says you must stop for a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing and/or the stop arm extended at all times unless the roadway is separated by a physical barrier. Remain stopped until the bus resumes motion or the flashing red lights cease, then proceed slowly while watching for children.
41. You see New Hampshire vehicles with headlights on following a hearse. What should you do?
- A Allow those funeral-procession vehicles to pass as a group
- B Cut through if your light is green
- C Join the line
- D Honk to break a gap
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers to allow vehicles that have their headlights on while following a hearse to pass as a group. Breaking the line at an intersection is how processions get scattered and how rear-end crashes start.
42. An emergency vehicle is approaching while you are inside a New Hampshire roundabout. What should you do?
- A Keep moving through and exit the roundabout, then pull to the right; do not stop inside the circle
- B Stop in the circulating lane immediately
- C U-turn around the island
- D Block the nearest exit
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers never to stop inside a roundabout for an emergency vehicle. Move through, exit, then pull to the right so the emergency vehicle can pass. Stopping in the circle traps the apparatus and the cars behind you.
43. A New Hampshire school bus has flashing red lights. When may you go?
- A Only after the bus resumes motion or the flashing red lights cease
- B As soon as the door closes, even if reds still flash
- C Whenever you can pass on the shoulder
- D After counting to three
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire says drivers shall remain stopped until the school bus resumes motion or the flashing red lights cease to operate. Then proceed slowly while watching for children. Do not creep past on a still-red flash.
44. A New Hampshire traffic signal is a flashing red stop signal. What must you do?
- A Stop before the nearest crosswalk, limit line, or intersection, then proceed under stop-sign rules
- B Slow and roll through
- C Wait for a circular green
- D Treat it as a flashing yellow
Correct answer: A. RSA 265:12 treats flashing red as a stop signal. Stop before the nearest crosswalk, or at a marked limit line, or before the intersection, then follow ordinary stop-sign rules. The section does not apply at railroad grade crossings, which follow RSA 265:49.
45. A New Hampshire traffic signal is a flashing yellow caution signal. What may you do?
- A Proceed through the intersection or past the signal only with caution
- B Treat it as a stop sign
- C Treat it as a protected green
- D Wait for a circular red first
Correct answer: A. RSA 265:12 says a flashing yellow caution signal lets drivers proceed through the intersection or past the signal only with caution. It is not a mandatory stop. Railroad crossings are carved out of this section.
46. What does New Hampshire’s Move Over law (RSA 265:37-a) require near a highway emergency?
- A Provide a wide space or change into a lane that is not adjacent to the stopped emergency
- B Keep the New Hampshire posted speed in the near lane
- C Stop in the travel lane behind the scene
- D Pass on the shoulder
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire’s Move Over law, RSA 265:37-a, requires drivers to provide a wide space or change into a lane that is not adjacent to a highway emergency. If you cannot move over, the duty to give that wide berth still means a slower, careful pass. Testers treat it as optional courtesy. In New Hampshire it is a statute.
47. What following distance does the New Hampshire Driver’s Manual tell you to keep?
- A A four-second following distance
- B One New Hampshire car length on dry pavement
- C Half a second if you know the road
- D No gap is required outside city limits
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers to keep a four-second following distance. If someone tailgates you, find a safe place to pull over and let that vehicle pass rather than brake-check. Testers still quote a two-second New Hampshire myth. Count four, then add more in rain or at night.
48. What passing distance does New Hampshire presume is reasonable and prudent next to a bicyclist at 30 mph or less?
- A At least 3 feet between the vehicle and the bicycle
- B A New Hampshire mirror’s width
- C One foot if you tap the horn
- D No extra space on a two-lane road
Correct answer: A. RSA 265:143-a says every New Hampshire driver approaching a bicyclist must leave a reasonable and prudent distance. That distance is presumed reasonable if it is at least 3 feet when you are traveling at 30 miles per hour or less. Testers treat 3 feet as a courtesy. In New Hampshire it is the statutory presumption at town speeds.
49. You pass a bicyclist on a New Hampshire road at 50 mph. How much clearance does the statute presume is reasonable?
- A At least 5 feet — 3 feet plus one extra foot for each 10 mph above 30
- B Still only 3 feet at any New Hampshire speed
- C A door’s width after you honk
- D No extra space above 45 mph
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire adds one extra foot of clearance for every 10 miles per hour above 30. At 50 mph that is two extra feet on top of the 3-foot base, so 5 feet. Testers keep a flat 3-foot New Hampshire habit at highway speed. The presumption grows with speed, and you wait for a real gap if you do not have the room.
50. A New Hampshire sign marks a shared center turn lane. Who may use it, and for what?
- A Left-turning vehicles from either direction; do not use that New Hampshire lane for through traffic or passing
- B Anyone who wants a New Hampshire passing lane
- C Through traffic if you keep a signal on
- D Only New Hampshire trucks making a right
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire says shared center lanes are for left turns only. The sign marks a lane reserved for left-turning vehicles from either direction. It is not for through traffic or passing other vehicles. Testers treat a New Hampshire two-way left-turn lane as a third travel lane. Left turn, then leave.
51. You enter a New Hampshire work zone. When may fines be doubled?
- A When the doubled-fine rule is clearly marked before you enter the New Hampshire work zone
- B Anytime orange cones appear on a New Hampshire shoulder
- C Only at night on a New Hampshire interstate
- D Never; New Hampshire work-zone fines stay the same
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers to reduce speed in work zones, be ready to stop, and not tailgate. Fines may be doubled in a work zone, but that doubling will be clearly marked before you enter. Testers invent an automatic New Hampshire double at the first cone. The plaque before the zone is what makes the extra fine apply.
52. You drive through a New Hampshire work zone at night and see no workers. What does the handbook tell you to do?
- A Use extreme caution whether workers are present or not, and do not resume normal New Hampshire speed until the End Road Work sign is visible
- B Speed up because an empty New Hampshire cone line does not count
- C Use high beams through the New Hampshire zone
- D Stop in the New Hampshire travel lane until dawn
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire tells drivers to use extreme caution through a work zone at night whether workers are present or not, and not to resume normal speed until the End Road Work sign is visible. Doubled fines still need a plaque before you enter. Testers treat an empty night-time New Hampshire zone as a speed-up. The zone lasts until End Road Work.
53. How close to a New Hampshire fire-station driveway may you park?
- A No closer than 20 feet to the driveway, or 75 feet on the opposite side of the New Hampshire street
- B Fifteen feet, the New Hampshire hydrant number
- C Against the New Hampshire bay if flashers are on
- D Anywhere a New Hampshire sidewalk is clear
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire forbids parking within 20 feet of a fire-station driveway, or within 75 feet on the opposite side. Testers reuse the 15-foot hydrant number here. Twenty and seventy-five are the firehouse pair, separate from the 15 / 20 / 30 / 50 set.
54. You are approaching a horse or a blind pedestrian on a New Hampshire road. What does the handbook tell you about the horn?
- A Do not sound the horn near a New Hampshire blind pedestrian or horse; that blast can startle them and cause a crash
- B Honk early so the New Hampshire rider or walker moves over
- C Tap the New Hampshire horn if you stay in your lane
- D Use the New Hampshire horn only at night
Correct answer: A. New Hampshire says drivers should only use the horn to communicate with other road users. Do not use the horn when near blind pedestrians or when approaching or near a horse, because that may frighten the horse and cause a crash. Testers honk a New Hampshire rider or a white-cane walker out of the way. Quiet is the handbook item, separate from the funeral-procession extra.
55. May you park on the roadway side of a vehicle already stopped at a New Hampshire curb?
- A No; New Hampshire RSA 265:69 forbids parking on the roadway side of any vehicle stopped or parked at the edge or curb
- B Yes, if New Hampshire flashers are on
- C Only at night on a New Hampshire interstate
- D Yes, if the New Hampshire hydrant is clear
