1. In Kansas, what is the maximum speed limit in an urban district (in a town or city) unless otherwise posted?
- A. 20 mph
- B. 25 mph
- C. 30 mph (correct)
- D. 35 mph
Why: Under K.S.A. 8-1558, unless otherwise posted the maximum speed in any urban district is 30 mph. Posted limits, including lower local limits, take precedence.

2. What does a pennant-shaped yellow sign indicate?
- A. Railroad crossing
- B. No passing zone (correct)
- C. Divided highway begins
- D. Bicycle lane ahead
Why: The No Passing Zone sign is the only pennant-shaped warning sign - a yellow, sideways triangle. It marks the beginning of a no-passing zone and is placed on the left side of the road facing the driver.

3. Alcohol affects driving by:
- A. Slowing reactions only once you reach 0.08%
- B. Impairing reaction time, judgment, and vision (correct)

- D. Mainly causing drowsiness, which coffee can fix
Why: Alcohol impairs all the skills needed to drive safely: reaction time slows, judgment and decision-making deteriorate, coordination suffers, and vision (especially peripheral) is reduced.

4. A yellow sign with a black arrow bending at a 90-degree angle indicates:
- A. A gentle curve
- B. A sharp turn ahead (correct)
- C. A side road ahead
- D. A lane shift ahead
Why: A sharp-angle arrow warns of a sharp turn (not a gentle curve) ahead. Slow down significantly before the turn - the recommended speed is often posted below.
Source: Federal MUTCD 11th ed. (Dec 2023) 2C.07 Paragraph 02
5. A rectangular white sign reading 'KEEP RIGHT' with an arrow means:
- A. Pass the divider on either side
- B. Go to the right of the divider (correct)
- C. Stay in the right lane to pass
- D. Right turns only
Why: A 'Keep Right' sign directs you to pass to the right of a traffic island, median, or obstruction. It keeps traffic flowing correctly around the divider.
Source: Federal MUTCD 11th ed. (Dec 2023) 2B.39
6. What does this sign warn drivers about?
- A. The speed limit is 12 mph
- B. Lanes are 12 feet wide ahead
- C. Low clearance under a structure (correct)
- D. Trucks need 12 feet to stop
Why: The low clearance sign shows the height of a bridge or overpass ahead. Do not go on if your vehicle is taller than the height shown.
