Louisiana Permit Test (Class D & E Guide) — All Questions

Louisiana's Move Over law requires drivers approaching a stopped emergency or police vehicle with flashing lights to:

• a.Turn off their headlights
• b.Speed up
• c.Move over a lane when possible, or slow down if they cannot✓
• d.Stop in the travel lane

The Move Over law protects roadside workers: change lanes away from the stopped emergency vehicle if you safely can, otherwise slow down and pass with caution. (Louisiana Class D & E Driver's Guide / RS 32)

When sharing the road with a motorcycle, remember that motorcycles:

• a.Are entitled to a full lane and can be hard to see✓
• b.Always need less space than cars
• c.Cannot use the interstate
• d.Should be passed in the same lane

A motorcycle needs a full lane, and its small size makes it easy to overlook. Check your mirrors and blind spots and allow extra following distance. (Louisiana Class D & E Driver's Guide, sharing the road)

A driver who wants to pass a bicyclist should:

• a.Leave a safe distance of at least three feet when passing✓
• b.Pass within a few inches
• c.Never allow bicycles on the road
• d.Sound the horn to scare the rider

Louisiana requires leaving at least three feet of space when passing a bicyclist, and passing only when it is safe. (Louisiana Class D & E Driver's Guide, bicycles)

Because much of Louisiana has bridges and elevated roads, drivers should know that in cold, wet weather:

• a.Bridges are always dry
• b.Bridges never freeze
• c.Ice only forms on gravel
• d.Bridges and overpasses can freeze before the rest of the road✓

Bridges and overpasses lose heat from both sides and can ice over before regular roadway, so slow down and avoid sudden moves on them in cold, wet weather. (Louisiana Class D & E Driver's Guide, adverse conditions)
