- A. 3 feet or more
- B. 10 feet or more
- C. 6 feet or more (correct)

2. An Oregon school speed sign is the 'school hours' type. When does its 20 mph limit apply?
- A. 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on school days
- B. 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on all weekdays
- C. 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on school days (correct)
- D. Only when its yellow light flashes

3. A white rectangular sign generally provides:
- A. A hazard warning ahead

4. If your headlights go out at night while driving, you should:
- A. Pull over immediately and turn on hazard lights (correct)
- B. Switch to parking lights and continue slowly
- C. Keep driving slowly and follow the car ahead closely

5. A warning sign showing an arrow splitting into two directions around a vertical line indicates:
- A. A divided highway begins ahead (correct)
- B. A fork where you must choose a route
- C. A passing lane opens ahead
- D. Two-way traffic begins ahead
Why: This sign warns that a divided highway begins ahead - a median or barrier will separate the opposing lanes. Keep right of the divider.

6. A yellow diamond sign showing arrows that curve around in a circle indicates:
- A. A U-turn area ahead
- B. A roundabout ahead (correct)

Why: The Circular Intersection sign (a yellow diamond showing arrows curving counterclockwise in a circle) warns of a roundabout ahead. Slow down, yield to traffic already in the circle, and enter when there is a safe gap. Round signs are used only for railroad crossing advance warnings.
