Arizona Right-of-Way practice test
Practice who goes first at intersections, crosswalks and roundabouts: 32 questions based on the Arizona Driver License Manual and Customer Service Guide, 14 of them on Arizona's own rules.
Key Arizona facts: Right-of-Way
- Drivers entering a roundabout must yield to vehicles already in it and to large vehicles entering at the same time, and should not try to pass large trucks inside it. Section 2, Safe Driving Practices: Roundabouts (p. 28)
- Vehicles must come to a complete stop at a school crossing whenever anyone is in the crosswalk. Section 3, Roadway and Vehicle Knowledge: Pedestrians (p. 36); School Crossing Sign (p. 42)
- You need not stop for a school bus on the other side of a divided roadway, which is one separated by a physical barrier such as a fence, curbing or a gap in the pavement; painted striping alone does not divide it. Section 3, Roadway and Vehicle Knowledge: School Buses and School Zones (p. 39)
- When at least two lanes run in the same direction as an approaching emergency vehicle on a four-lane highway, yield by moving to a lane that is not next to its lane, or slow down carefully if you can't. Section 3, Roadway and Vehicle Knowledge: Emergency Vehicles (p. 38)
- Drivers must yield to vehicles in a funeral procession led by an escort vehicle flashing a red or blue light. Section 3, Roadway and Vehicle Knowledge: Funerals (p. 39)
Sample Right-of-Way questions
Under Arizona's school bus rule, what makes a roadway divided?
- Double solid yellow lines
- Four or more lanes in total
- Painted stripes between the lanes
- A physical barrier such as a fence or curbing
Show the answer
A physical barrier such as a fence or curbing
A divided roadway is separated by a physical barrier; painted striping alone does not count.
You reach a roundabout just as a large truck is entering it. Who should yield?
- You should yield to the truck
- The truck should yield to you
- Whoever is on the right
- Whoever is moving faster
Show the answer
You should yield to the truck
Drivers entering a roundabout yield to vehicles already in it and to large vehicles entering at the same time.
When is a U-turn allowed in Arizona?
- Never within city limits
- Only on divided highways
- Only at intersections with signals
- When it is safe and no sign forbids it
Show the answer
When it is safe and no sign forbids it
U-turns are allowed when they can be made safely without interfering with other traffic and no sign prohibits them.
You have the right-of-way, but taking it now could cause a crash. What does Arizona law say?
- You may take it if you sound your horn
- No one may take the right-of-way if a crash could result
- You may take it because the law gives it to you
Show the answer
No one may take the right-of-way if a crash could result
The law only says who must yield, and no one may take the right-of-way if a crash may result.
Only painted stripes separate the two directions of a road. A school bus stopped on the other side has its stop arm out. What must you do?
- Continue if no children are visible
- Stop before reaching the bus
- Continue slowly with caution
- Slow to 15 mph and pass
Show the answer
Stop before reaching the bus
Striping alone does not divide a road, so traffic in both directions must stop for the bus.
On a four-lane highway, an emergency vehicle with lights on approaches in your direction of travel. How should you yield?
- Stop in your lane right away
- Move into its lane behind it
- Move to a lane not next to its lane
- Speed up to stay ahead of it
Show the answer
Move to a lane not next to its lane
With two or more lanes going its way, yield by changing to a lane not adjacent to the emergency vehicle, or slow down with caution if you cannot.
Does turning on your signal give you the right-of-way?
- Yes, once it has blinked a few times
- Yes, when you are changing lanes
- No, it only shows what you plan to do
Show the answer
No, it only shows what you plan to do
A signal gives others time to react, but it never gives you the right-of-way.
You have entered a roundabout and cars are waiting at the next entry. Should you stop to let them in?
- Yes, if they flash their lights
- No, keep moving once inside
- Yes, always stop at each entry
Show the answer
No, keep moving once inside
Enter at a gap in traffic and do not stop once you are inside the roundabout.
A child is walking in a school crosswalk ahead of you. What must you do?
- Come to a complete stop
- Stop only if a crossing guard is there
- Slow to 15 mph and pass behind the child
- Sound your horn and continue
Show the answer
Come to a complete stop
Vehicles must stop completely at a school crossing whenever anyone is in the crosswalk.
