North Dakota permit test study guide
All 170 North Dakota-specific questions in our bank, including 136 handbook-scenario extras, each with its correct answer and a plain-English explanation. These are original questions grounded in official NDDOT 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. You received a North Dakota instruction permit at age 14. How long must you hold that permit before you can complete the road test for an operator's license?
- A Three months, with no minimum age involved
- B Six months, no matter what your age is
- C Twelve months or until you turn 16, whichever comes first, but never less than six months
- D Until you turn 18
Correct answer: C. North Dakota makes 14- and 15-year-olds hold the permit 12 months or until age 16, whichever arrives first, with a six-month floor. That floor stops a birthday from shortcutting practice time, so start logging hours early.
2. Before a North Dakota applicant under 16 may take the road test, how much supervised practice driving must be finished?
- A 20 hours, daylight only
- B 100 hours, including 10 at night
- C No specific number of hours is required
- D 50 hours in variable driving conditions
Correct answer: D. North Dakota requires under-16 applicants to log 50 hours of supervised practice in variable conditions, and a parent or guardian must sign for it at the test site. Variable matters because real trips mix rain, night, gravel, and traffic.
3. While you practice with a North Dakota instruction permit, who is required to ride in the seat beside you?
- A Any licensed driver who is at least 16
- B Only a parent or legal guardian
- C A driver licensed for that class of vehicle who is at least 18 and has three or more years of driving experience
- D Anyone at least 21, licensed or not
Correct answer: C. North Dakota wants a supervisor licensed for that vehicle class, at least 18 years old, with three-plus years behind the wheel, seated next to you. Experience is the whole point: a coach who has seen more roads catches more mistakes.
4. A 15-year-old holds a restricted North Dakota Class D license. When does the nighttime driving restriction apply?
- A From the later of sunset or 9 p.m. until 5 a.m.
- B From 10 p.m. until 6 a.m.
- C From midnight until 4 a.m.
- D There is no nighttime restriction
Correct answer: A. The restriction runs from the later of sunset or 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. unless a parent, guardian, or someone at least 18 rides along. Driving directly to or from work, an official school activity, or a religious activity is excepted.
5. What lands on your North Dakota driving record if you drive in violation of the conditions of your instruction permit?
- A A written warning with no points
- B A two-point penalty
- C Immediate license cancellation
- D A six-point penalty
Correct answer: B. North Dakota assesses two points for driving outside your permit's conditions. Points accumulate, and a driver under 18 who reaches six or more has the permit cancelled, so small violations stack toward a very large consequence.
6. You fail the knowledge test at a North Dakota driver license office. How soon may you try again?
- A Right away, as many times as you like
- B After waiting 30 days
- C Only after repeating driver education
- D Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day)
Correct answer: D. The official NDDOT learner-permit page says Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day). Testers invent leftover same-day retakes. Wait until another day before you try again.
7. Which North Dakota drivers are prohibited from using electronic communication devices while driving?
- A Anyone driving with an instruction permit, plus every licensed driver under 18
- B Only drivers under 21
- C Only school bus drivers
- D No one, because the state has no such rule
Correct answer: A. North Dakota bars permit holders of any age and licensed drivers under 18 from talking, composing, reading, or sending electronic messages while driving. Narrow exceptions cover emergencies, like calling for help when someone's safety is genuinely in danger.
8. In North Dakota, what is the maximum speed as you pass a school during recess or while children are arriving or leaving, unless a sign says otherwise?
- A 15 mph
- B 20 mph
- C 25 mph
- D 30 mph
Correct answer: B. North Dakota sets 20 mph past a school during recess and at opening and closing times unless posted otherwise. Children step off curbs without looking, and 20 mph leaves you the stopping distance to react.
9. Unless a sign says otherwise, what speed limit applies on a North Dakota gravel, dirt, or loose-surface road?
- A 45 mph
- B 50 mph
- C 55 mph
- D 65 mph
Correct answer: C. Loose-surface roads in North Dakota default to 55 mph, the same limit as unposted paved two-lane county and township roads. Remember that a default is a ceiling for ideal conditions, not a target on washboard gravel.
10. What speed limit applies by default on a paved, divided multilane North Dakota highway that is not an interstate?
- A 60 mph
- B 65 mph
- C 70 mph
- D 75 mph
Correct answer: C. North Dakota law sets 70 mph on paved divided multilane highways unless posted otherwise, while rural two-lane roads posted for speed top out at 65. Divided lanes remove head-on risk, which is why the limit sits higher.
11. Under North Dakota's implied consent law, what happens to your driving privileges if you refuse a chemical test?
- A A flat 24-hour suspension
- B Nothing, because refusing is your right
- C A $100 fine with no license action
- D Revocation for 180 days up to three years
Correct answer: D. Holding a license in North Dakota means you already consented to chemical testing, so refusing costs you a revocation of 180 days to three years. Refusal is not an escape hatch; it is its own penalty.
12. What fine comes with a first DUI conviction in North Dakota when the alcohol concentration is under.16 percent?
- A $250
- B $500
- C $1,000
- D $2,000
Correct answer: B. A first North Dakota DUI conviction carries a $500 fine, climbing to at least $750 plus two days of imprisonment once the concentration hits .16 percent. Every convicted driver must also complete an alcohol addiction evaluation.
13. In North Dakota, what is the mandatory minimum jail term for driving while your license is suspended after an alcohol-related violation?
- A No jail time, only a fine
- B One day
- C Four days
- D Thirty days
Correct answer: C. North Dakota imposes at least four days in jail plus a fine of up to $1,000, and your plates and registration card may be impounded. Waiting out a suspension is far cheaper than driving through it.
14. You are on a North Dakota multilane highway outside city limits and spot a car stranded on the shoulder with its hazard lights flashing. What does the move-over rule ask of you?
- A Move safely into the lane that is not next to the stranded car, or slow down if that is impossible
- B Speed up to clear the area faster
- C Stop completely until the stranded car pulls away
- D Nothing, since the rule covers only police vehicles
Correct answer: A. North Dakota asks you to yield and move to the lane away from the stranded vehicle. If the adjacent lane is your only safe choice, cut your speed and pass carefully, because someone may be standing outside that car.
15. An NDDOT maintenance truck is parked on the shoulder of a North Dakota interstate with its work lights flashing. What should you do?
- A Hold your speed in the lane nearest the truck
- B Stop and wait for a worker to wave you past
- C Sound your horn as you go by
- D Move over to the opposite lane and continue with due caution
Correct answer: D. North Dakota extends move-over protection to emergency, law enforcement, and NDDOT maintenance vehicles flashing lights on interstates and multilane highways. Shift to the far lane and pass with due caution, because crews work only feet from traffic.
16. Which agency administers the learner's-permit knowledge test in North Dakota?
- A North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT)
- B The Federal Highway Administration
- C The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
- D The US Department of Education
Correct answer: A. In North Dakota, driver licensing — including the permit knowledge test — is run by the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT). Federal agencies write guidance and fund programs, but they do not hand you a North Dakota permit. When in doubt, start at the NDDOT site.
17. You need to confirm a North Dakota permit rule you saw on a practice site. What is the authoritative place to check?
- A The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) website or official North Dakota 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. North Dakota's NDDOT publishes the handbook and the current rule. If two sources disagree, the official North Dakota page wins. Date-stamp what you read.
18. Who writes the official new-driver (graduated licensing) rules that apply on North Dakota roads?
- A The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) and North Dakota 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 North Dakota law, explained by the NDDOT. A school or insurer may summarize them, but they are not the source. Learn the North Dakota version, not a generic US version.
19. What does the NDDOT officially call the North Dakota permit written exam?
- A Rules of the Road 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 NDDOT names the North Dakota exam the Rules of the Road knowledge test. 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.
20. Where is the official North Dakota driver handbook published?
- A By the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) 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 NDDOT publishes the North Dakota 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 North Dakota?
- A 14
- B 18
- C 21
- D 16
Correct answer: A. North Dakota lets you apply for a learner's permit at 14, according to the NDDOT. 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.
22. For a driver 21 or older in North Dakota, the per-se BAC limit is:
- A 0.08%
- B 0.12%
- C 0.15%
- D 0.20%
Correct answer: A. North Dakota 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 North Dakota can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.
23. Drivers under 21 in North Dakota are over the youth alcohol limit at which level?
- A 0.02%
- B 0.08%
- C 0.10%
- D 0.15%
Correct answer: A. North Dakota 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 North Dakota, treat alcohol and keys as incompatible.
24. Unless a sign posts another limit, the usual residential or city default in North Dakota is:
- A 25 mph
- B 55 mph
- C 70 mph
- D 15 mph unless signed
Correct answer: A. North Dakota's typical unposted residential / city default is 25 mph. School zones and work zones drop lower. If houses line the street and no sign argues, start at 25 mph and watch the next plaque.
25. What is the highest posted highway speed limit in North Dakota?
- A 80 mph
- B 25 mph
- C 15 mph
- D 100 mph
Correct answer: A. North Dakota's highest posted highway limit is 80 mph. Most stretches are lower, and work zones or weather can cut it further. Do not assume every freeway in North Dakota is signed at the state maximum.
26. Does the NDDOT offer any online option for the North Dakota Rules of the Road knowledge test?
- 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. North Dakota does offer an online knowledge-test path for some applicants. Eligibility, ID rules, and camera rules change, so confirm them on the NDDOT site before you plan around it. An online test still means no handbook in your lap.
27. Which fee listing matches what the NDDOT currently publishes for a North Dakota permit or license application?
- A Permit: $15. Knowledge test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day). Road test: $5.
- B There is never a fee in North Dakota
- C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
- D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA
Correct answer: A. The NDDOT lists this North Dakota amount: Permit: $15. Knowledge test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day). Road test: $5.. 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.
28. If you fail the North Dakota knowledge test, which retake rule matches the NDDOT page?
- A Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day)
- B You are banned from driving in North Dakota for life
- C You may retake it immediately with no limits, forever, for free, at any kiosk
- D The NDDOT never allows a second try
Correct answer: A. The official NDDOT page lists Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day), so a failed test cannot be retaken until another day. Testers invent leftover same-day retakes.
29. What does the NDDOT publish about languages for the North Dakota knowledge test?
- A The Class D knowledge test is offered in 14 languages: English, Arabic, Chinese, Dari, French, Nepali, Pashto, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Somali, Spanish, Swahili, Turkish, and Vietnamese. Automated American Sign Language and audio testing is available at eight driver license offices.
- B English only in every office, with no exceptions listed
- C Latin and Esperanto only
- D The test is offered as a mime exam with no written language
Correct answer: A. Language options in North Dakota: The Class D knowledge test is offered in 14 languages: English, Arabic, Chinese, Dari, French, Nepali, Pashto, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Somali, Spanish, Swahili, Turkish, and Vietnamese. Automated American Sign Language and audio testing is available at eight driver license offices. Ask at the office or on the NDDOT site when you schedule, because not every location stocks every language every day. Bring an interpreter only if the NDDOT says that is allowed.
30. Which statement correctly describes North Dakota's published graduated-licensing rules for new drivers?
- A North Dakota issues instruction permits at age 14 after a knowledge exam and vision screening; applicants who are 14 or 15 must hold the permit 12 months or until age 16 (minimum six months), complete formal driver education, and log 50 hours of supervised practice driving, while 16- and 17-year-olds must hold it six months. After the road test, a 15-year-old receives a restricted Class D license limited to vehicles owned by a parent, guardian, grandparent, sibling, aunt, or uncle, with no unsupervised driving between the later of sunset or 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. except directly to or from work, school activities, or religious activities. The license becomes unrestricted at 16, and electronic communication devices are barred for all permit holders and licensed drivers under 18.
- B New drivers in North Dakota may drive alone on a permit with no supervising adult at any hour.
- C North Dakota has no night, passenger, or practice-hour rules for teens.
- D A North Dakota permit is valid nationwide as a full unrestricted license.
Correct answer: A. North Dakota's GDL summary from the NDDOT: North Dakota issues instruction permits at age 14 after a knowledge exam and vision screening; applicants who are 14 or 15 must hold the permit 12 months or until age 16 (minimum six months), complete formal driver education, and log 50 hours of supervised practice driving, while 16- and 17-year-olds must hold it six months. After the road test, a 15-year-old receives a restricted Class D license limited to vehicles owned by a parent, guardian, grandparent, sibling, aunt, or uncle, with no unsupervised driving between the later of sunset or 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. except directly to or from work, school activities, or religious activities. The license becomes unrestricted at 16, and electronic communication devices are barred for all permit holders and licensed drivers under 18. Those details — hours, passengers, practice logs — are what real exams poke at. Reread them the night before you test.
31. How long must a 14- or 15-year-old North Dakota applicant hold an instruction permit?
- A 12 months or until age 16, with a six-month minimum, plus driver education and 50 practice hours
- B 30 days with no course
- C Six months at every age with no log
- D Until 18
Correct answer: A. Applicants who are 14 or 15 must hold the permit 12 months or until age 16 (minimum six months), complete formal driver education, and log 50 hours. Sixteen- and 17-year-olds must hold it six months. Electronic devices are barred for all permit holders and licensed drivers under 18.
32. A 15-year-old North Dakota driver just passed the road test. Which vehicles may that restricted Class D license be used in?
- A Vehicles owned by a parent, guardian, grandparent, sibling, aunt, or uncle
- B Any car in the state
- C Only school buses
- D Any friend's car
Correct answer: A. After the road test, a 15-year-old receives a restricted Class D license limited to vehicles owned by a parent, guardian, grandparent, sibling, aunt, or uncle, with no unsupervised driving between the later of sunset or 9:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. except directly to or from work, school, or religious activities. The license becomes unrestricted at 16.
33. How many North Dakota knowledge-test attempts are allowed per day, and what is the listed fee?
- A Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day)
- B Unlimited free tries
- C Three tries the same morning
- D Two online tries for $4
Correct answer: A. The official NDDOT learner-permit page lists Knowledge Test: $5 per attempt (one attempt allowed per day). Testers invent leftover same-day unlimited leftovers. One attempt per day is the official cap.
34. When is unsupervised night driving barred for a 15-year-old North Dakota restricted licensee, aside from listed exceptions?
- A Between the later of sunset or 9:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.
- B Midnight to 6:00 a.m. only
- C 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m.
- D There is no night restriction
Correct answer: A. The night window is the later of sunset or 9:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m., except a direct trip to work, school activities, or religious activities. In June sunset can be well after 9:00 p.m.; in December 9:00 p.m. is the later clock.
35. How close to a fire hydrant may you legally park in North Dakota?
- A No closer than 10 feet
- B No closer than 15 feet
- C No closer than 50 feet
- D Against the hydrant if hazards are on
Correct answer: A. North Dakota forbids parking within 10 feet of a fire hydrant and within an intersection. Ten is the hydrant number, not the 15-foot figure used in many other states. The same list keeps you 15 feet from a flashing beacon, stop sign, or roadside signal.
36. How close to a flashing beacon, stop sign, or roadside traffic signal may you park in North Dakota?
- A No closer than 15 feet
- B 10 feet, same as a hydrant
- C 50 feet
- D Against the sign if you stay in the car
Correct answer: A. North Dakota forbids parking within 15 feet of a flashing beacon, a stop sign, or a traffic-control signal placed on the side of the roadway, and within 15 feet of the ends of a marked safety zone. Fifteen is the signal number; ten is the hydrant number.
37. When should you use headlights in North Dakota?
- A From sunset to sunrise, and at any other time necessary for safe driving
- B Only after 10 p.m.
- C Never in daytime
- D Only on the interstate
Correct answer: A. North Dakota tells drivers to use headlights from sunset to sunrise and at any other time necessary for safe driving. Do not overdrive your headlights: you must be able to stop in the distance you can see.
38. A pedestrian carrying a white cane or walking with a guide dog is near a North Dakota crossing. What should you do?
- A Be ready to yield; they are blind or have greatly reduced vision
- B Honk so they can locate you
- C Hold your speed on green
- D Pass closely
Correct answer: A. North Dakota notes that pedestrians carrying white canes or walking with guide dogs are blind or have greatly reduced vision. Treat them as you would other pedestrians who need extra time, and be ready to yield. A horn startles someone using sound to navigate.
39. How far before a North Dakota turn must you keep your signal on?
- A Continuously for the last 100 feet before the turn
- B A car length
- C Only after you start the turn
- D 500 feet in every town
Correct answer: A. North Dakota says you must signal continuously for the last 100 feet before the turn. A late blinker is how rear-end crashes start in the turn lane, and a leftover signal after the turn still means “turning” to everyone behind you.
40. How far from other traffic must you dim headlights in North Dakota?
- A At least 500 feet before meeting traffic, and within 300 feet when following another vehicle
- B 50 feet both ways
- C Never; high beams stay on
- D Only inside city limits
Correct answer: A. North Dakota tells drivers to dim headlights at least 500 feet before meeting traffic and within 300 feet when following another vehicle. If the other driver does not dim, look to the right edge of the road so you are not blinded while you pass.
41. Besides sunset to sunrise, when does North Dakota say to use headlights in bad weather?
- A During inclement weather when visibility is less than 1,000 feet because of rain, snow, sleet, hail, smoke, or fog
- B Only if a police officer tells you
- C Never in snow
- D Only on the interstate
Correct answer: A. North Dakota says use headlights from sunset to sunrise and at any other time necessary for safe driving, including inclement weather when visibility is less than 1,000 feet due to rain, snow, sleet, hail, smoke, or fog. Parking lights are not a substitute for seeing and being seen.
42. A North Dakota school bus, passenger bus, or gasoline truck is stopped at railroad tracks. What should you do?
- A Do not pass those vehicles while they are stopped at the crossing
- B Squeeze past on the shoulder
- C Honk so they pull forward
- D Follow them onto the tracks
Correct answer: A. North Dakota notes that school buses, vehicles carrying explosives or flammable liquids such as gasoline trucks, and buses carrying passengers must stop at railroad crossings, within 50 feet and not less than 15 feet from the tracks. Watch for them and do not pass while they are stopped at the crossing.
43. North Dakota traffic signals are dark, for example in a power outage. What must you do?
- A Stop and yield the right-of-way to any vehicle already in the intersection, then proceed only when it is safe
- B Treat the dark head as a green light
- C Speed through so you do not block others
- D U-turn immediately
Correct answer: A. North Dakota says if traffic signals are dark, such as in a power outage, the driver shall stop and yield the right-of-way to any vehicle already in the intersection. Then go only when the way is clear. Do not assume the busier street still has a free green.
44. When a train is crossing in North Dakota, how far from the crossing must you stop?
- A At least 15 feet before the crossing
- B With your bumper on the nearest rail
- C At least 100 feet in every town
- D Only if gates are down
Correct answer: A. North Dakota says when a train is crossing, stop at least 15 feet before the crossing. Some crossings also use gates and red flashing lights. Wait until the train has cleared and the warning has stopped before you move.
45. A North Dakota traffic signal uses an illuminated 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. North Dakota Century Code § 39-10-07 says that when a yellow lens is illuminated with rapid intermittent flashes, drivers may proceed through the intersection or past the signal only with caution. A flashing red at the same kind of location is a stop signal. Railroad crossings follow a different section.
46. After stopping on red in North Dakota, when may you turn left?
- A From a one-way street onto a one-way street, unless a sign prohibits it
- B From any two-way street onto any two-way street
- C Never
- D Only after 9 p.m.
Correct answer: A. North Dakota allows a left on red from a one-way street onto a one-way street unless a sign prohibits it. A right on red after a stop is the more common permission unless a sign forbids that too. Testers swap the two turns.
47. Where does North Dakota say you may not make a U-turn?
- A Near the crest of a hill or on a curve where you cannot see 500 feet or more
- B Anywhere a North Dakota stop sign is posted
- C Only on interstates
- D U-turns are always legal in North Dakota towns
Correct answer: A. North Dakota forbids a U-turn near the crest of a hill or on any curve where the driver cannot see 500 feet or more. Testers treat an empty-looking hill as legal. If you cannot see that far in North Dakota, do not turn around.
48. What following-distance method does the North Dakota Driver License Manual teach?
- A The three-second rule: if you reach the mark before you finish the count, you are too close
- B One North Dakota car length at highway speed
- C Half a second on dry pavement
- D No gap is required outside city limits
Correct answer: A. North Dakota’s three-second rule is how you measure a safe following cushion. Pick a shadow, mark, or object, start counting when the rear bumper ahead passes it, and do not reach that spot before you finish. Testers still quote a two-second North Dakota myth. Count a full three, then add more in weather.
49. You come up behind a working North Dakota snowplow. What does the handbook tell you to do, and what must you never drive through?
- A Stay well back — plows stop and back up — and never drive through a North Dakota whiteout from the plow or crosswinds
- B Draft the North Dakota blade at one car length
- C Pass on the North Dakota shoulder where snow is being thrown
- D Follow close so sand from the North Dakota truck cannot hit you
Correct answer: A. North Dakota tells drivers to stay well back from snowplows because they sometimes stop and back up, the driver cannot see directly behind, and they throw sanding material. Do not crowd the plow. Never drive through whiteouts caused by crosswinds or plowing light snow — plows pull over and stop to let traffic pass when they can. Testers ride a North Dakota plow’s bumper. Distance and patience beat a whiteout pass.
50. When may you use studded snow tires on a North Dakota highway?
- A From October 15 to April 15
- B Year-round on every North Dakota interstate
- C Only in January on a North Dakota two-lane
- D Never; North Dakota bans every stud
Correct answer: A. North Dakota says snow tires or chains help in winter, but you should still double your following distance. Studded snow tires may be used from October 15 to April 15. Testers leave studs on a North Dakota car in July or invent a December-only window. Mid-October through mid-April is the legal season.
51. A North Dakota two-way left-turn lane sits in the center of the roadway. How may you use it?
- A Only for left-turning North Dakota vehicles in either direction; passing or overtaking is not permitted
- B As a North Dakota passing bay if the dashes fade
- C As a through lane on a North Dakota four-lane
- D Only for North Dakota right turns from a driveway
Correct answer: A. North Dakota reserves the two-way left-turn lane only for left-turning vehicles in either direction. Passing or overtaking is not permitted in the center lane. Testers camp in a North Dakota two-way left-turn stripe to overtake. Left turns only.
52. When does North Dakota add an $80 minimum fee for ignoring a work-zone speed limit?
- A When work is in progress and workers are present in that North Dakota zone
- B Anytime an orange North Dakota sign appears, even if the site is empty
- C Only at night on a North Dakota interstate
- D Never; North Dakota work-zone tickets stay the same
Correct answer: A. North Dakota tells drivers to slow through construction and maintenance zones. Failure to comply with work-zone speed limits carries an $80 minimum fee when work is in progress and workers are present. Testers treat the first orange North Dakota cone as an automatic $80. Workers on site are what trigger that floor.
53. How close to a crosswalk at a North Dakota intersection may you park?
- A No closer than 10 feet of that North Dakota crosswalk, and not on it
- B Twenty feet, a number copied from other North Dakota neighbors
- C Against the North Dakota markings if flashers are on
- D Fifteen feet, the North Dakota signal number
Correct answer: A. North Dakota forbids parking on or within 10 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection — the same tight 10-foot figure it uses at a fire hydrant. Testers copy the 20-foot crosswalk rule used in many other states. Ten feet is the North Dakota crosswalk buffer.
54. When you park on a North Dakota two-way roadway next to a curb, how close must the right-hand wheels sit?
- A Parallel to and within 12 inches of the right-hand North Dakota curb, or as close as practicable to the right-hand shoulder
- B Within 18 inches only, a number copied from other North Dakota neighbors
- C Against the North Dakota sidewalk if flashers are on
- D Anywhere a North Dakota travel lane stays open
Correct answer: A. North Dakota Century Code 39-10-50 requires a vehicle stopped or parked on a two-way roadway to sit with the right-hand wheels parallel to, and within 12 inches of, the right-hand curb, or as close as practicable to the right edge of the right-hand shoulder. Testers copy an 18-inch number from other states. Twelve inches is the North Dakota curb gap, separate from the 10-foot crosswalk extra.
