North Carolina exam answer

What does North Carolina test?

NCDMV separately administers written-knowledge and traffic-sign recognition tests. Its current public test page describes the two components but does not publish stable combined section counts, so this site uses a transparent 10-sign + 20-knowledge practice allocation with 80% study gates, 75 reviewed questions, adaptive review, and official source links.

Sample question · no JavaScript needed

A school bus stops opposite you on a four-lane North Carolina road with no median. What must you do?

Stop
Continue because four lanes always create an exception
Pass at 10 mph

Answer: A — Stop. Without the roadway separation described by the handbook, traffic in both directions must stop.
