Question 1

You are stopped at a steady red light in Oklahoma and want to turn right. What does the manual allow?

Accepted Answer

Turn right after a complete stop, unless a sign forbids it, yielding to pedestrians, vehicles and bicycles. Right on red is Oklahoma's default rather than a special permission. Two things ride along with it: the stop has to be complete first, and a posted sign forbidding the turn overrides the default. Once stopped, you give way to everyone already using the intersection. Official wording: "After coming to a complete stop, you may turn right on red and you may turn left from a one-way street into a one-way street unless there are signs forbidding the turn." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 2

Two cars reach a four-way stop at exactly the same moment, at right angles to each other. What is Oklahoma's tie-breaker?

Accepted Answer

The driver on the left yields to the driver on the right. Order of arrival settles most four-way stops: whoever entered the intersection first goes first. The right-hand rule only breaks a genuine tie, and when it does, the driver on the left is the one who waits. Official wording: "At four-way-stop intersections and at intersections without stop signs or signals, the car or truck that entered the intersection first has the right-of-way. When two vehicles approach at the same time, the driver on the left yields to the driver on the right" (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 3

You are on an Oklahoma turnpike and there is no speed limit sign in sight. What is the state maximum?

Accepted Answer

80 mph. Turnpikes carry Oklahoma's highest statutory default at 80 mph. Controlled-access highways that are not turnpikes default to 75, so the two are easy to swap if you learn only one of them. Official wording: "Controlled access highways 75 mph Turnpikes 80 mph Undivided State Highways 65 mph County roads 55 mph Highways within state parks or wildlife refuges 35 mph School zones on any highway outside of a municipality in a properly marked zone 25 mph" (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 4

Which following distance does the Oklahoma Driver Manual give as its rule of thumb in good conditions?

Accepted Answer

One car length for every 10 mph of speed, or the three-second rule. Oklahoma offers two ways to measure the same gap: a car length for every 10 mph, or the three-second count. Either is acceptable, and the count is easier to use at speed because it does not need you to judge lengths. Official wording: "Allow one car length for every 10 miles per hour of speed OR ▶ Use the "three-second rule"-Select a fixed object, such as a tree, roadside sign or utility pole, ahead of the car in front of you." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 5

A school bus ahead of you on a two-lane street switches on its flashing red lights and swings out its stop sign. What must you do?

Accepted Answer

Stop, and stay stopped until the bus moves, the driver waves you on, or the red lights go off. Flashing red lights and the extended stop arm mean children are getting on or off, and the stop lasts until one of three things happens: the bus starts moving, the driver motions you past, or the lights go off and the arm folds back. Official wording: "If you approach a bus with flashing red lights and/or showing a red "STOP" sign, it means that children are getting on or off the bus and you must stop." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 6

How close to a fire hydrant may you legally park in Oklahoma?

Accepted Answer

No closer than 15 feet. Fifteen feet is Oklahoma's hydrant figure. It is one of a short list of distances the manual prints outright, so it is fair game on the test in a way that many states' parking rules are not. Official wording: "4. Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. 5. On a crosswalk. 6. Within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 7

You are 17 and a trooper tests your breath after a stop. At what alcohol level does Oklahoma revoke your licence?

Accepted Answer

Any measurable amount of alcohol at all. Under 21, Oklahoma's line is zero. Any measurable quantity of alcohol in your blood or breath triggers the revocation, and there is no small allowance underneath it. Official wording: "It is unlawful and punishable, as stated below, for any person under 21 years of age to drive, operate or be in actual physical control (APC) of a motor vehicle within our state who: Has ANY measurable quantity of alcohol in the person's blood or breath at the time a test is administered." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 8

How far ahead of a turn does the Oklahoma Driver Manual say you should signal?

Accepted Answer

At least 100 feet, or one third of a block. Oklahoma states the distance twice over: at least 100 feet, or a third of a block, whichever way you prefer to think about it. The same distance applies when you are signalling that you will slow down or stop. Official wording: "It is illegal to turn without signaling. You should signal for at least 100 feet or 1/3 of a block before you turn, slow down or stop." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 9

How many questions are on Oklahoma's Class D written knowledge test, and how many must you get right?

Accepted Answer

20 questions, 15 correct. Twenty questions, fifteen correct, which works out at 75 percent. You get 60 minutes, and the result comes back immediately. Official wording: "You will have 60 minutes to complete the test. To pass, you must correctly answer 15 out of 20 questions." (Service Oklahoma - Written Knowledge Test (service.ok.gov, retrieved 2026-09-06)).

Question 10

What does the Oklahoma Driver Manual say about using your rearview mirror to back up?

Accepted Answer

Never use the rearview mirror for backing up: turn and look through the rear window. Oklahoma's instruction is flat. You put your left hand at the top of the wheel, your right arm along the back of the seat, and you look directly through the rear window. The mirror is not the tool for this job. Official wording: "Place your right arm on the back of the seat and look directly through the rear window. Never use your rearview mirror for backing up." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 11

You are parking downhill against a curb. Which way do the front wheels go, and why?

Accepted Answer

Toward the curb, so the curb blocks the front wheel if the car rolls. Downhill, the wheels turn toward the curb and you roll gently forward until the tire touches it. Then the transmission goes into reverse or park. If anything gives, the curb stops the car. Official wording: "Facing downhill-To brace your car when parking downhill, turn your wheels toward the curb and drive forward slowly until the wheel is against the curb (see diagram). Shift into reverse or "park."" (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 12

What does a flashing yellow arrow for a left turn mean in Oklahoma?

Accepted Answer

You may turn left after yielding to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. The flashing yellow arrow is permission without protection. You reduce speed, yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians, and then turn. The oncoming drivers are looking at a green. Official wording: "Reduce speed and cautiously proceed with left turn after yielding to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Oncoming traffic has the right-of-way." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 13

Your car stalls on a railroad crossing and the warning lights start flashing. What does the manual tell you to do?

Accepted Answer

Get out, run at a 45-degree angle toward the direction the train is coming from, and call 911. Get out first, then run at 45 degrees toward the oncoming train, and call 911. Running toward the train sounds wrong and is right: it takes you away from the debris the impact will throw down the line. Official wording: "Get out of your vehicle if it stalls on the tracks. If your vehicle is physically on the train tracks at a grade crossing and the lights begin to flash, you may only have 20 seconds to escape before the train makes it to your location." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 14

A trooper asks you to take a breath test in Oklahoma and you refuse. What happens to your licence?

Accepted Answer

Automatic revocation of your driving privilege, even if you have not been drinking. Driving in Oklahoma is treated as consent to the test. Refusing revokes your driving privilege automatically, and the revocation stands whether or not there was any alcohol in you. Official wording: "Refusal to take the test upon request by a law enforcement officer will result in an automatic revocation of your driving privilege, even if you have not been drinking." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 15

You hold a valid Oklahoma medical marijuana licence. What does the Driver Manual say about driving?

Accepted Answer

It is illegal for anyone to drive with any detectable level of cannabis in their system. Legal to hold is not legal to drive on. The manual is explicit that despite legalization for some medical purposes, driving with any detectable level of cannabis in your system is illegal for anyone. Official wording: "Although the state has legalized cannabis for some medical purposes, it impairs driving performance, and it is illegal for anyone to drive with any detectable level of cannabis in their system." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 16

A person with a white cane tipped in red is crossing the street ahead of you. What does Oklahoma law require?

Accepted Answer

Stop 15 feet away, outside the crosswalk, and let them pass. Stop immediately and let them pass, and stop outside the crosswalk rather than in it. Oklahoma names a distance: a vehicle must stop 15 feet from a blind person in the roadway or at an intersection. Official wording: "The law says you should: ▶ Stop immediately and let the person pass. ▶ Stop outside the crosswalk, not in the crosswalk. ▶ A vehicle must stop 15 feet from a blind person in the roadway or at an intersection." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 17

You are driving on a four-lane road and pass a police car stopped on the shoulder with its lights flashing. What does the Bernardo-Mills Law require?

Accepted Answer

Change into a lane that is not next to the stopped vehicle if it is safe, and otherwise slow down and proceed with caution. Move over a lane if you can do it safely; if you cannot, slow down and drive carefully. On a road with only one lane your way, slowing down is the whole duty. Official wording: "When approaching any stationary vehicles with FLASHING LIGHTS pulled to the side of the road, drivers are REQUIRED to move over a lane, if safe to do so, or slow down and use caution." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 18

How long must an Oklahoma teenager hold a learner permit before taking the drive test for an intermediate licence?

Accepted Answer

180 days. One hundred and eighty days. With driver education completed you can then test at 16; without it, you wait until 16 and a half. Official wording: "With Driver Education Completion: Must have held a Learner Permit for 180 days and be at least 16 years old Without Driver Education Completion: Must have held a Learner Permit for 180 days and be at least 16 1/2 years old" (Service Oklahoma - Intermediate License (service.ok.gov, retrieved 2026-09-06)).

Question 19

Under Oklahoma's bicycle safety rules, what may a cyclist do at a red traffic light?

Accepted Answer

Stop, yield to any oncoming traffic that poses an immediate hazard, then proceed if it is safe. Cyclists stop at the red, yield to anything approaching that is an immediate hazard, and may then proceed through if it is safe. Oklahoma also lets them turn right on red after slowing and yielding, and turn left onto a one-way street after stopping and yielding. Official wording: "Cyclists must stop at a red light before entering the intersection. ▶ They must yield to any oncoming traffic that poses an immediate hazard. ▶ If it's safe, cyclists can proceed through the red light." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 20

A school bus with flashing red lights has stopped on the opposite roadway of a divided highway. Do you have to stop?

Accepted Answer

No, because the bus is on a different roadway. A bus on a different roadway does not stop you. Oklahoma's exception turns on the road being divided into separate roadways, not on the number of lanes. Official wording: "You DON'T have to stop for a school bus when- ▶ the bus is on a different roadway, OR ▶ the bus is stopped in a loading zone by a controlled-access highway where pedestrians are not allowed to cross." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 21

How far ahead should you dim your high beams for a vehicle you are following, according to the Oklahoma Driver Manual?

Accepted Answer

600 feet. Six hundred feet when you are following. The figure for an oncoming vehicle is longer, at 1,000 feet, because the glare hits their eyes directly rather than via a mirror. Official wording: "Dim your high beam headlights to low beams within 1000 feet of an oncoming vehicle or within 600 feet of the vehicle you are following." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 22

An animal runs into the road in front of you on a rural Oklahoma highway. What does the manual advise?

Accepted Answer

Do not swerve, because swerving can cause a worse crash than the impact. Do not swerve. The manual's reasoning is arithmetic rather than sentiment: hitting a deer is usually less severe than hitting a tree, a ditch or an oncoming car. Official wording: "There may be a time when an animal suddenly runs in front of your vehicle. DO NOT swerve to avoid hitting the animal. This may result in a more serious crash than if your vehicle collided with the animal." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 23

You hold a valid Oklahoma medical marijuana card and used cannabis last night. What does the manual say about driving today?

Accepted Answer

It is illegal to drive with any detectable level of cannabis in your system. The manual is explicit that although the state legalized cannabis for some medical purposes, it is illegal for anyone to drive with any detectable level of cannabis in their system. The card licenses possession and use, not driving. Official wording: "Although the state has legalized cannabis for some medical purposes, it impairs driving performance, and it is illegal for anyone to drive with any detectable level of cannabis in their system." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).

Question 24

You are backing out of a parking space. What does the Oklahoma Driver Manual tell you to do?

Accepted Answer

Look directly through the rear window and never use the rearview mirror for backing. The manual's wording is absolute: put your right arm on the seat back, look directly through the rear window, and never use your rearview mirror for backing up. Mirrors and cameras both leave gaps low and to the sides. Official wording: "Place your right arm on the back of the seat and look directly through the rear window. Never use your rearview mirror for backing up." (Oklahoma Driver Manual (Service Oklahoma, updated 11/24/25)).
