Good job. This is a passing score. Do you want to try another test?

You are required to stop when:
Do not proceed until you can do so safely.
Construction/maintenance safety zone. Highway work zones are established according to the type of work underway along the roadway. Signs in work areas are typically diamond-shaped, orange, displaying black letters or symbols, and serve as a warning that people are working on or near the highway.
Alcohol in the blood stream reaches the brain in 15 to 40 minutes. Once in the brain the alcohol first affects those areas of your brain that control judgment and skill.
Stop lines, crosswalks, and parking spaces are marked with white lines.
Do not stop at a crash unless you are involved or emergency help has not yet arrived. Keep your attention on your driving and keep moving, watching for people who might be in or near the road.
This question asked what you should not do.
Except for emergencies, the use of a cellphone is prohibited when you hold a permit, learner’s license, or an intermediate license.
Pull over to the right edge of the road, or as near to the right as possible, when you see or hear an emergency vehicle approaching from any direction.
If you are in an intersection, drive through the intersection before you pull over.
Turn on your headlights whenever you have trouble seeing others. If you have trouble seeing them, they are having trouble seeing you.
By law, you must turn on your headlights from a half hour after sunset to a half hour before sunrise. You must also use headlights at any time you cannot see a person or object clearly within 500 feet.
If you turn on your wipers due to weather conditions, you must also turn on your headlights. It is the law in Arkansas.
The round black-on-yellow warning sign is placed ahead of a public highway-rail intersection. The Advance Warning sign tells you to slow down, look and listen for the train, and be prepared to stop at the tracks if a train is coming.
The drivers of trucks, buses, vans, or vehicles pulling campers or trailers may not be able to see you when you are directly behind them. They could stop suddenly without knowing you are behind them. These large vehicles also block your view of the road ahead. Reducing your speed and falling back allows you more room to see ahead.
Divided highway ahead (divided highway begins).
The highway ahead is divided into two one-way roadways. Keep to the right.
Be very careful on bridges. The road on both sides of the bridge may be ice-free. However, cold air blowing under the bridge quickly freezes water, making icy patches a real problem.
The slippery when wet warning sign is often located near bridges and overpasses.
If your vehicle begins to hydroplane (lose traction), you should:
Stopping at 60 mph does not take twice the distance it takes at 30 mph as one might think, but three times the distance.
Whenever you cross or enter city traffic from a full stop, you will need a large enough gap (from cars approaching in either direction) to get up to the speed of other vehicles.
A stop sign is red with white letters and has eight (8) sides (octagon shaped).
Always pass a tractor-trailer completely and always on the left side. If you linger when passing a truck, your position makes it impossible for the truck driver to take evasive action if an obstacle appears in the road ahead.
Arkansas does not allow turning against a red arrow.
A lighted red arrow indicates a driver must stop and is prohibited from turning in the same direction indicated by the arrow. The driver may proceed however once the arrow light changes to green.
You cannot make a complete turn to go in the opposite direction where this sign is displayed.
Remember that a red circle with a slash means no. The sign shows you what is not allowed.
Drivers are required to have an Arkansas driver’s license if they are located in the state for more than six months as a non-resident, or within 30 days once becoming a resident.
Pedestrians using a guide dog or carrying a white cane should always be given the right-of-way. Stop, and do not use your horn as it could confuse or frighten a blind pedestrian.
Respect the vehicle space of a motorcycle and its position in traffic. Motorcycles are allowed the full width of a lane in which to maneuver. Don’t share the lane with a motorcyclist. It restricts the rider’s ability to avoid hazardous situations.
Parking is not allowed within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection.
Approaching a controlled intersection with intentions to turn right will require the driver to come to a stop if the traffic signal is red. However, once the driver has come to a complete stop and there is no opposing traffic to interfere with the right turn, the driver may proceed with the turn. It is important during such turns to be cautious of pedestrians crossing in front of the vehicle.
Speed limits are posted for ideal conditions. If the road is wet or icy, if you cannot see well, or if traffic is heavy, then you must slow down. Even if you driveunder the posted speed limit, you can get a ticket for traveling too fast under these conditions. This is known as the basic speed rule.

Like all states, Arkansas has a graduated driver’s license program.
The purpose of the graduated driver’s license program is to allow drivers to gradually become safe and experienced drivers with a step-by-step process.
1 First step – Instruction Permit
As a first step, Arkansas state police always issues an instruction permit. The permit allows a new driver practice driving together with a supervising driver.
To apply for an instruction permit, you must be at least 14 years old. When your application is accepted, you must pass the knowledge exam and vision test to receive your instruction permit.
With an instruction permit you may practice driving with a licensed driver 21 years or older. The supervising driver must always sit beside you in a front seat.
The permit is valid for one year and cannot be extended.
If you are under 16 years and pass the skills test, you may proceed to step 2 and get your first learner’s license.
2 Step 2 – Learner’s License
Arkansas state police issues a learner’s license after you have passed the skills test and if you are between 14 and 16 years old.
When you hold a learner’s license, you must always be accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old and all passengers must wear seat belts.
The Learner’s License is restricted to supervised driving until your 16th birthday AND until six months of supervised driving is completed.
3 Step 3 – Intermediate License
You may get an intermediate license if you have passed all tests, have held the instruction permit, and are between 16 and 18 years old.
The intermediate license is also restricted to supervised driving unless the six-month period with supervised driving has already been met when the applicant turns 16.
If the intermediate license is restricted to supervised driving, you must be accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old until the period of six months is complete.
After the six-month period, you may drive alone.
With an intermediate driver’s license, you may, however, not drive alone between the hours of 11:00 pm and 4:00 am unless you are driving to and from school activity, church activity, job, or in an emergency.
There is also a passenger restriction when you drive alone. You cannot drive with more than one unrelated minor passenger. An unrelated minor passenger is a person under 21 years old who is not a sibling, step-sibling, or a child who lives in the same household as the driver.
4 Step 4 – Unrestricted Class D License
The Class D license is a non-restricted license issued to persons 18 years or older.
Before you can get an unrestricted license, you must have held a valid Instruction Permit indicating a completion of the knowledge exam, vision, and skills test.
You must also be free of serious accident and conviction of a serious traffic violation for at least 12 months prior to application.
The Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) law helps provide a safe environment for young drivers by placing strategic restrictions on when and with whom they may drive. The process of receiving a teen driver's license contains three levels: learner's license, intermediate license, and unrestricted/regular driver license.
A learner's license is issued to teens between 14 and 16 years old. With a learner's license, a teenager must always drive with a supervising adult. The intermediate license allows a teenager to drive alone, but with a curfew between 11:00 pm and 4:00. With the intermediate license they are also restricted from having more than one unrelated passenger under 21 years.
You must be at least 14 years old to apply for an Instruction Permit in Arkansas. State police will issue the permit after you pass the knowledge exam and vision test. The permit is valid one year.
You must be 14 years old, pass the knowledge exam and vision test before the state issues an instruction permit. Study the Arkansas Driver License Study Guide well ahead of your exam and take several practice tests to make sure you can pass.
When you apply, you must must present an original birth certificate, an Attendance Form for Students (school form), and a parent or legal guardian must sign your application.
To get your first learner's license, you must be between 14 and 16 years old and have a valid Instruction Permit. The permit must show that you have passed the knowledge test, the vision exam, and the skills test.
To get an Intermediate License in Arkansas, you must be between 16 and 18 years old. You must have a valid Instruction Permit indicating a completion of the knowledge exam, vision and skills test. Your driving record must also be clean, with no serious traffic violations or at fault accidents during the previous 6 months.
If you have not held a learner’s license or permit for at least 6 months, you are restricted to supervised driving only. This restriction is lifted after six months of supervised driving.
You cannot drive between the hours of 11:00 pm and 4:00 am unless accompanied by a licensed driver, driving to and from school activity, church activity, job, or an emergency.
The use of a cell phone, whether it is talking or texting, is prohibited by law except for an emergency.
No more than one unrelated minor passenger is allowed, unless you are accompanied by a licensed driver. Unrelated minor passenger is a person under 21 years old who is not a sibling, step-sibling, or a child who lives in the same household as you.
In order to get a Class D License in Arkansas, you must be 18 years old and a valid Instruction Permit indicating a completion of the knowledge exam, vision and skills test. You must also be free of serious accident and conviction of a serious traffic violation for at least the previous 12 months prior to application.
If you have not been licensed before, you must always start by applying for an Instruction Permit. To get the Instruction Permit, you must pass the knowledge test and the vision test. The permit allows you to practice driving with a supervising driver who is at lest 21 years old and sits beside you in the front seat.
When you are 18 years old and have passed the skills test, Arkansas state police can issue a Class D Driver License without restrictions.
No, a driver education course is not mandatory in Arkansas. You must, however, pass a knowledge test before the state police issues a learner's permit and teens must practice driving for at least six months before they can be eligible for a license.
