  1. GDL & fees

    1. You are 16 and hold an Oregon provisional instruction permit. Without an approved driver education course, how many hours of supervised practice driving must you complete before applying for your provisional license?

    • A 25 hours
    • B 50 hours
    • C 100 hours
    • D 150 hours

    Correct answer: C. Oregon requires 100 hours of supervised practice with a provisional instruction permit, cut to 50 if you finish an approved driver ed course. Practice builds judgment that classes alone cannot. Remember: 100 on your own, half with the course.

  2. GDL & fees

    2. You just received your Oregon provisional instruction permit at age 15. What is the minimum time you must hold it before you can get a provisional driver license?

    • A 3 months
    • B 6 months
    • C 9 months
    • D 12 months

    Correct answer: B. Oregon makes teen drivers hold a provisional instruction permit for at least six months before licensing. The waiting period guarantees practice across seasons and conditions, not just a quick test run. Think: half a year with the permit before the license.

  3. GDL & fees

    3. You earned your Oregon provisional license two months ago. Which passengers under age 20 may legally ride with you?

    • A Only members of your immediate family
    • B Up to two friends with parent permission
    • C Anyone, as long as you drive before dark
    • D Up to three classmates on school days

    Correct answer: A. For the first six months with an Oregon provisional license, passengers under 20 must be immediate family. In the second six months, up to three others may ride. Teen passengers raise crash risk sharply. Hook: family first, three friends later.

  4. GDL & fees

    4. You have held your Oregon provisional license for eight months. At 1 a.m. you want to drive a friend home from a party. This is legal only if:

    • A Your friend is an experienced driver
    • B You stay on neighborhood streets
    • C The trip is shorter than five miles
    • D A licensed driver age 25 or older rides along

    Correct answer: D. During the first year, Oregon provisional licensees may not drive between midnight and 5 a.m. except for work, school events, or with a licensed driver 25 or older. Fatigue and darkness multiply new-driver risk. Hook: midnight to five needs twenty-five.

    5. The Oregon Class C knowledge test has 35 questions. How many must you answer correctly to pass?

    • A 25
    • B 28
    • C 30
    • D 32

    Correct answer: B. Oregon's Class C knowledge test has 35 questions, and you need 28 correct answers, which is 80 percent. The bar is set high because these rules protect lives on the road. Memory hook: miss seven at most and you still pass.

  6. GDL & fees

    6. You failed the Oregon Class C knowledge test at a DMV office this morning. What will retesting cost you?

    • A Nothing, because the first retake is free
    • B $7 total, covering all attempts for one year
    • C $7 again, because the fee applies to every attempt
    • D $30, the same as the permit issuance fee

    Correct answer: C. Oregon charges a $7 knowledge test fee for every attempt, and you may retest as soon as the same day if the office can seat you. Paying per try rewards preparation. Hook: seven dollars each swing, thirty for the permit itself.

  7. GDL & fees

    7. You are taking the Oregon Class C knowledge test online and get caught using notes. Besides an automatic failure, what happens?

    • A You must finish future tests at a DMV office, with no other penalty
    • B You pay a $50 penalty and may retest the next day
    • C Your permit application is canceled permanently
    • D You must wait 90 days before you can test again

    Correct answer: D. Cheating on Oregon's online knowledge test brings an automatic failure plus a 90-day wait before retesting. Honest testing proves you actually know rules that keep people alive. Hook: one shortcut costs about three months of driving progress.

  8. Speed

    8. Thick fog rolls over an Oregon highway posted at 55 mph. You keep driving at 55 and get pulled over. Can you be cited?

    • A Yes, Oregon's basic rule requires a speed reasonable for conditions, even below the posted limit
    • B No, the posted limit always protects you
    • C No, unless you were also tailgating
    • D Yes, but only if a crash actually happened

    Correct answer: A. Oregon's basic rule says your speed must be reasonable and prudent for traffic, road surface, weather, and visibility. A posted number is not a promise of safety in fog or ice. Hook: conditions set the real limit, signs set the ceiling.

  9. Speed

    9. You approach an Oregon school zone where the flashing yellow lights are operating. What is the fastest you may drive?

    • A 15 mph
    • B 20 mph
    • C 25 mph
    • D 30 mph

    Correct answer: B. When lights flash or children are present, Oregon school zones are capped at 20 mph. A child stepping out gives you almost no reaction time, and slower speed shrinks stopping distance. Hook: flashing lights mean twenty, no faster.

  10. Speed

    10. You are driving through a busy downtown business district in Oregon with no speed signs posted. What speed does state law expect you to stay at or below?

    • A 30 mph
    • B 35 mph
    • C 25 mph
    • D 20 mph

    Correct answer: D. Where no sign is posted, Oregon law sets 20 mph as the assumed safe speed in a business district. Storefronts mean constant pedestrians, parked cars, and doors opening. Hook: downtown equals twenty, the same as a school zone.

  11. Alcohol & drugs

    11. By driving on roads in Oregon that are open to the public, what have you automatically agreed to under the implied consent law?

    • A A breath test for alcohol if you are arrested for DUII
    • B A vehicle search at any traffic stop
    • C Roadside drug screening at checkpoints
    • D Giving up your right to a lawyer after arrest

    Correct answer: A. Oregon's implied consent law means driving here counts as agreeing to a breath test if you are arrested for DUII. It exists so impaired drivers cannot hide the evidence. Hook: use Oregon roads, you have already said yes to the test.

  12. Alcohol & drugs

    12. You are arrested for DUII in Oregon and refuse the breath test. What should you expect?

    • A Nothing until a court convicts you of DUII
    • B A warning, since the test is voluntary
    • C A license suspension plus a separate fine just for refusing
    • D A shorter suspension than if you had failed the test

    Correct answer: C. Refusing a breath test after a DUII arrest in Oregon triggers its own license suspension, longer than for failing, plus a fine for the refusal itself. Refusal cannot shield you. Hook: saying no punishes you twice, license and wallet.

  13. Sharing the road

    13. You are driving on a two-lane Oregon road when an oncoming school bus stops with red lights flashing. What must you do?

    • A Slow to 20 mph and pass with care
    • B Stop before reaching the bus and wait until the red lights stop flashing
    • C Continue, because the bus is facing the other direction
    • D Stop only if children are visible outside the bus

    Correct answer: B. In Oregon, traffic from both directions must stop for a school bus with flashing red lights and stay stopped until the lights quit, unless the bus is on a different roadway. Children cross unpredictably. Hook: red flash, both directions stop.

  14. Emergencies

    14. An ambulance is stopped on the shoulder of a multilane Oregon freeway with its lights flashing. Under the move-over law, you must:

    • A Move into a lane not next to the ambulance, or slow to at least 5 mph below the limit
    • B Stop completely until the ambulance leaves
    • C Turn on your hazard lights and keep your speed
    • D Honk briefly to warn the crew you are passing

    Correct answer: A. Oregon's move-over law gives two options at a stopped emergency vehicle: change to a lane that is not alongside it, or slow to at least 5 mph under the limit. Roadside workers die in near-lane strikes. Hook: move over or slow down five.

  15. Right-of-way

    15. A pedestrian in Oregon steps off the curb into an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection and enters the lane next to yours. What does the law require?

    • A Yield only at crosswalks with painted lines
    • B Slow down and steer around the pedestrian
    • C Stop and remain stopped while the pedestrian is in your lane or the lane next to yours
    • D Sound your horn so the pedestrian waits for you

    Correct answer: C. Oregon treats every intersection as a crosswalk, painted or not, and you must stop and stay stopped while a pedestrian occupies your lane or the adjacent lane. Rolling through invites tragedy. Hook: no paint still means crosswalk, stop and stay.

    • A Class C Knowledge Test
    • B The federal interstate qualifying exam

    Correct answer: A. The DMV names the Oregon exam the Class C 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.

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

    Correct answer: A. Oregon lets you apply for a learner's permit at 15, according to the DMV. 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.

    • D 99%

    Correct answer: A. You need 80% to pass the Oregon Class C 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%.

  25. Alcohol & drugs

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

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

    Correct answer: A. Oregon 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 Oregon can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.

    • A any detectable amount
    • B 0.08%
    • C 0.10%
    • D 0.15%

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

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

    • A 25 mph
    • B 55 mph
    • C 70 mph
    • D 15 mph unless signed

    Correct answer: A. Oregon'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.

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

    • A $30 instruction permit issuance fee (ORS 807.370), plus a $7 Class C knowledge test fee paid separately for each attempt. The permit is valid for 2 years.
    • B There is never a fee in Oregon
    • C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
    • D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA

    Correct answer: A. The DMV lists this Oregon amount: $30 instruction permit issuance fee (ORS 807.370), plus a $7 Class C knowledge test fee paid separately for each attempt. The permit is valid for 2 years.. 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.

    31. How many supervised practice hours must an Oregon teen log before a provisional license if they did not pass an approved driver-ed course?

    • A 100 hours, or 50 hours if they pass an approved course
    • B 50 hours with no reduction
    • C 40 hours including 10 at night
    • D The course replaces every parent hour

    Correct answer: A. Oregon teens ages 15-17 must hold a provisional instruction permit 6 months and log 100 hours — or 50 hours if they pass an approved driver-ed course — before a provisional license. For the first 6 months licensed they may not carry passengers under 20 outside their immediate family.

    • C One forever
    • D Any number after midnight

    Correct answer: A. The first 6 months keep under-20 non-family riders out. The second 6 months allow no more than three. For the first year they also may not drive between midnight and 5:00 a.m., with limited exceptions for work, school events, or riding with a licensed driver 25 or older.

    • B Unlimited online tries
    • C One try per year
    • D Five tries the same afternoon

    Correct answer: A. If you fail at a DMV office you may retest as soon as the same day, depending on availability, and you pay the $7 test fee every attempt. Online testing is capped at two attempts per 24 hours and four total online attempts per test type; cheating triggers an automatic failure and a 90-day wait.

    • A No closer than 10 feet
    • B No closer than 15 feet, as in most states
    • C No closer than 50 feet
    • D Against the hydrant overnight

    Correct answer: A. Oregon’s list is 10 feet from a fire hydrant — tighter than the 15-foot rule many states use. The same chapter also keeps you 15 feet from a fire-station driveway on the same side and 50 feet from the nearest rail of a railroad or light-rail crossing.

    • A The same as a stop sign
    • B As a green light if nothing is moving
    • C As a yield only
    • D As a merge

    Correct answer: A. Oregon treats a flashing red or a dark signal the same as a stop sign. Stop, then go when it is safe. A steady red arrow is a separate rule: stop and remain stopped until the signal changes, except for the same turns allowed on a circular red.

    • B Wait for green like everyone else
    • C Use the shoulder
    • D Turn on hazards and run the red at speed

    Correct answer: A. Oregon funeral processions are exempt from certain rules of the road. Vehicles in the procession may enter an intersection without stopping. Other drivers should not cut through or join the line to beat a light.

    • B Only in work zones
    • C Never in rain during the day
    • D Only after 10 p.m.

    Correct answer: A. Oregon requires headlights from sunset to sunrise and at any time conditions make it difficult to see people or vehicles 1,000 feet ahead. If you are using wipers in poor weather, turning the headlights on also helps others see you.

    • A Give that pedestrian the right-of-way
    • B Honk and keep moving
    • C Pass within two feet
    • D Wait only if your light is red

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says you must give the right of way to a pedestrian with limited vision, or any pedestrian who is blind or deaf-blind, carrying a white cane or using a guide dog. Yield the same way you would to other pedestrians in a crosswalk.

  40. Sharing the roadHandbook scenario

    40. An Oregon school bus has flashing red lights. A painted median or two-way left-turn lane is between you and the bus. Must you stop?

    • A Yes. A painted median strip or turn lane does not create two separate roads, so all lanes must stop. Only an unpaved median or barrier lets opposite traffic skip the stop
    • B No. Any painted line counts as a divided highway
    • C Only the lane next to the bus stops
    • D Never if you are going the other way

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says flashing amber lights mean the bus is about to stop, so prepare to stop. When red lights flash, stop before reaching the bus. On a divided highway with two roads separated by an unpaved median or barrier, stop only if you are on the same side. A painted median or turn lane does not create two separate roads — all lanes must stop.

    41. How far from other traffic must you dim headlights in Oregon?

    • B 50 feet both ways
    • C Never; high beams stay on
    • D Only inside city limits

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says if you are using high beams you must dim when an oncoming vehicle is within 500 feet, and dim when following another vehicle within 350 feet. Headlight glare in a rearview mirror can blind the driver ahead. The 350-foot following figure is not the usual 200- or 300-foot number.

    • B No. A red arrow always forbids the turn until green
    • C Only trucks may turn
    • D Only after 9 p.m.

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says a steady red arrow means stop and remain stopped until the signal changes, except for allowed turns on red. The same turns allowed for a steady circular red are allowed for a red arrow. That is more permissive than many other states. Still stop fully and yield to traffic and pedestrians.

    43. How far before an Oregon turn or lane change must you signal if you are already moving in traffic?

    • A At least 100 feet
    • B A car length
    • C Only after you start the move
    • D 500 feet in every town

    Correct answer: A. Oregon tells a moving driver to use a turn signal at least 100 feet before the turn or lane change. If you are parked at a curb and reentering traffic, signal long enough to alert others. Use hand-and-arm signals only in daylight when you can see people and vehicles 1,000 feet away; use signal lights at night or in poor visibility.

    • A Slow down and proceed 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. Oregon says a flashing yellow signal means slow down and proceed with caution. A steady yellow arrow warns that the signal is about to turn red, which is a different display. Do not treat the flash as a protected turn.

    45. When you must stop at an Oregon railroad crossing and there is no stop line, how far from the nearest rail should you stop?

    • A At least 15 feet from the nearest rail
    • B With your bumper on the rail
    • C At least 100 feet in every city
    • D Anywhere as long as the gate is up

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says when required to stop, do so at the stop line. If there is no stop line, stop at least 15 feet from the nearest rail. Stop before the tracks when flashing red lights are on or an approaching train is clearly visible. Even with a green light, do not enter an intersection unless there is room for your vehicle on the other side.

    • A At intersections controlled by a traffic signal
    • B Only inside a school zone
    • C Anywhere a yellow line is painted
    • D Only on gravel

    Correct answer: A. Oregon lists places where U-turns are prohibited, including intersections controlled by a traffic signal unless a sign permits the U-turn. Do not swing wide or change lanes while turning. If the signal intersection has no U-turn sign, go around the block.

    47. What following distance does the Oregon Driver Manual call safe, and what changes above 30 mph?

    • A 2 to 4 seconds; at speeds greater than 30 mph use 4 seconds or more
    • B One Oregon car length at any speed
    • C Half a second in the city
    • D No gap is required on an interstate

    Correct answer: A. Oregon defines a safe following distance as 2 to 4 seconds. At speeds greater than 30 mph, use 4 seconds or more so you have time to decide and act. Add still more on wet or slippery roads. Testers keep a two-second habit at highway speed. In Oregon the faster you go, the longer the count.

    48. You see a deer or a deer-crossing sign on an Oregon road. What should you do?

    • A Stay alert and slow down if you see deer or other wildlife
    • B Speed up so the animal has less time in an Oregon lane
    • C Honk and hold the posted limit
    • D Swerve into the oncoming lane as a first move

    Correct answer: A. Oregon’s deer-crossing plaque means deer often cross in that stretch. Be alert and slow down if you see deer or other wildlife. Hitting the animal at speed, or swerving into the other lane, is how rural Oregon crashes start. Treat the sign as a speed cut, not décor.

  49. Sharing the roadHandbook scenario

    49. You stop at a red light in front of a green Oregon bike box. Where must your vehicle wait, and may you turn right on red?

    • A Stop behind the bike box, not in it; right turns on red are not allowed at these Oregon intersections
    • B Nose into the Oregon box so bikes wait behind you
    • C Right on red is always allowed in an Oregon bike box
    • D Stop on the Oregon crosswalk line inside the box

    Correct answer: A. Oregon bike boxes are usually a green painted box with a white bicycle symbol. Drivers stop behind the box for the signal and stay out of it so riders can move in front. Right turns on red are not allowed at those intersections. On a green right, signal and yield to people riding on your right. Testers creep into the Oregon box. That is the conflict the box is meant to prevent.

    • B Any Oregon solo driver if the diamond is faded
    • C Oregon trucks with a trailer if one person is aboard
    • D Anyone after 8 a.m. on an Oregon weekday

    Correct answer: A. Oregon’s HOV sign reserves the lane for vehicles carrying at least two people during the hours on the plaque — here 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. Monday through Friday. A white diamond may be painted on the lane. Testers put a solo Oregon car in the diamond at 7 a.m. Two-plus during the posted window is the rule.

    • B Year-round on every Oregon interstate
    • C Only in January on an Oregon two-lane
    • D Never; Oregon bans every stud

    Correct answer: A. Oregon generally allows studded tires only from November 1 through March 31. Because studs damage pavement, the handbook encourages chains or other traction tires instead. Testers leave Oregon studs on into May or invent an April 15 window. November through the end of March is the usual season.

    • B Ten feet, the Oregon hydrant number
    • C Against the Oregon bay if flashers are on
    • D Anywhere an Oregon bike lane is empty

    Correct answer: A. Oregon forbids parking within 15 feet of a fire-station driveway on the same side, or within 75 feet on the opposite side. Testers reuse Oregon’s 10-foot hydrant number. Fifteen and seventy-five are the firehouse pair.

    53. You are traveling faster than 35 mph in an Oregon lane and want to pass a person on a bicycle in that same lane. When may you pass?

    • A Only if you leave enough Oregon distance to avoid contact if that rider were to fall
    • B Anytime an Oregon dashed line appears
    • C If you tap the Oregon horn and stay in the bike lane
    • D Whenever the Oregon rider is going under 20 mph

    Correct answer: A. Oregon says that at speeds greater than 35 mph you may only pass a person on a bicycle traveling in your lane if you leave enough distance to prevent contact if that person were to fall. If you cannot pass safely, slow down and remain behind. Testers squeeze past an Oregon rider at highway speed. Room for a fall is the test.

    • B Within 18 inches only, a number copied from other Oregon neighbors
    • C Against the Oregon sidewalk if flashers are on
    • D Anywhere an Oregon travel lane stays open

    Correct answer: A. Oregon’s parking chapter says to park in the direction traffic is moving, parallel to and no more than 12 inches from the curb. If there is no curb, park as close as possible to the edge of the shoulder. Testers copy an 18-inch number from other states. Twelve inches is the Oregon curb gap, separate from the 10-foot hydrant extra.

    • B Fifteen feet, the Oregon hydrant number
    • C Against the Oregon rail if flashers are on
    • D Fifty feet only, the Oregon crossing no-park number

    Correct answer: A. Oregon forbids stopping or parking within 7 1/2 feet of railroad or light-rail tracks when that stop interferes with the train, and separately within 50 feet of the nearest rail of a railroad or light-rail crossing. Testers reuse the 50-foot crossing figure for every Oregon rail. Seven and a half feet is the interference buffer.

    • B Thirty Oregon feet, a number copied from other states
    • C Ten Oregon feet, the hydrant number reused here
    • D Fifteen Oregon feet, the fire-station number reused here

    Correct answer: A. Oregon Revised Statute 811.550 forbids standing or parking within 50 feet upon the approach to an official flashing signal, stop sign, yield sign, or traffic-control device at the side of the roadway if that vehicle would obstruct the view of the control. Testers copy a 30-foot number from other states or reuse Oregon’s 50-foot rail figure. Fifty feet when the view is blocked is the Oregon roadside-control trap, separate from the 50-foot rail extra.

    • C Only after 9 p.m. on an Oregon street
    • D Yes, if the Oregon hydrant is clear

    Correct answer: A. Oregon Revised Statute 811.550 forbids parking, stopping, or leaving a vehicle standing on the roadway side of a vehicle already stopped or parked at the edge or curb of a highway. Testers squeeze alongside an Oregon curb car to “just run in.” The travel lane stays a travel lane, separate from the 50-foot roadside-control extra.

    • B Leave the Oregon wheels straight if the brake is set
    • C Always turn the Oregon wheels toward oncoming traffic
    • D Point the Oregon wheels uphill on every grade

    Correct answer: A. The official Oregon Driver Manual turns the wheels toward the curb downhill, toward the travel lane uphill against a curb, and toward the edge of the road if there is no curb. Set the parking brake and leave a manual in gear or an automatic in park. Testers leave an Oregon car pointed straight on a grade.
