Specific to Montana

Rules that differ from state to state

We haven't yet verified Montana-specific rules against its own handbook, so practice here uses national-standard signs, signals and markings — which apply in every state — plus safe-driving technique. State-specific numbers such as parking distances or alcohol limits are left out rather than borrowed from another state.

Left turn on a solid green

A green light permits your left turn — it does not protect it.

Green light. Your light is solid green. You want to turn left. A red car approaches from the opposite direction, going straight.

Rule: On a circular green you may go straight or turn, but turning traffic yields to pedestrians in the crosswalk and to vehicles in the intersection, and a left turn also yields to oncoming traffic close enough to be a hazard.

Read the whole scene as text
  1. Green light: Your light is solid green. You want to turn left. A red car approaches from the opposite direction, going straight.
  2. Decision point: You have pulled forward to the stop line. The oncoming car is close and still coming.
  3. Oncoming car passes: You wait. The oncoming car passes straight through.
  4. You turn: With the way clear, you complete your left turn.

  1. Sample 1 · National standard

    Red octagon STOP sign

    What does this sign require you to do? (Red octagon STOP sign)

    • Slow down and continue if no one is coming
    • Come to a full stop, then go only when it is safe
    • Stop only if other vehicles are at the intersection
    • Stop only when turning
    Show answer

    Come to a full stop, then go only when it is safe. An octagon is used for STOP and nothing else. It is placed where a full stop is always required, so you stop completely every time, then proceed only when you can do so safely.
