Nevada DMV - Rules of the Road 25 Questions Answers Quiz

Nevada DMV – Rules of the Road 25 Questions Answers Quiz. If you’re getting ready for the Nevada knowledge test, this short-and-sharp quiz will help you lock in the basics. It sticks to everyday driving: right‑of‑way, signals, lane lines, roundabouts, school buses, and smart freeway habits.

Work through the 25 questions, check your answers, and note anything you miss. Read each question slowly. Watch for words like always, never, only, and anything that changes the situation (divided vs. undivided road, flashing lights vs. steady lights, one‑way vs. two‑way). If two answers look good, pick the one that puts safety and right‑of‑way first.

How to study (and remember it)

1) Break it into five mini‑topics, five minutes each.
Right‑of‑way • Lines & lanes • Turns & signals • Freeway & work zones • People outside the car (pedestrians/bikes/buses).
Do one loop in 25 minutes. Done for the day.

2) Use “why,” not just “what.”
If a rule feels random, ask why it exists. Example: stopping for a bus protects kids who may cross unexpectedly. “Why” makes it stick.

3) Rehearse out loud.
Say the rule like you’re teaching a friend: “Broken white means same direction; I can change if it’s clear.” Hearing it helps memory.

4) Drive like the test.
On your next ride (as a passenger), call out rules you see in real time: “That’s a center left‑turn lane,” “That’s an unprotected left,” “That bus has amber lights—you prep to stop.”
