Sample 1 · Nevada rule
Nevada: you stop at a four-way stop. Two cars reach their stop signs a few seconds after you. Who should go first?
- You, because you stopped first
- The car on your right
- The car going straight
- The largest vehicle
Show answer
You, because you stopped first. At an all-way stop, drivers go in the order they arrived and stopped.

Sample 2 · Nevada rule
Nevada: an ambulance with its siren on and lights flashing is coming up behind you. What must you do?
- Keep going at the same speed so it can predict you
- Drive to the right edge of the road and stop until it has passed — but not inside an intersection
- Stop immediately where you are, even in the intersection
- Speed up to stay ahead of it
Show answer
Drive to the right edge of the road and stop until it has passed — but not inside an intersection. Yield by pulling as far right as you safely can and stopping until the emergency vehicle has passed. Clear the intersection first rather than stopping inside it.

Sample 3 · National standard
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.

What does the Nevada test cover?
Every state tests road signs, signals and pavement markings (a national standard), right-of-way, and safe-driving practice, plus its own laws — parking distances, alcohol limits, school-bus and emergency-vehicle rules. The Nevada Driver's Handbook (DMV 700, March 2024) is the source of truth.
