4. Which fact does the motorcycle handbook give about crashes between motorcycles and cars?
Correct answer: Over half begin when a driver moves into the right-of-way that belongs to the rider
Cars turning left in front of a rider — including from the lane to the rider's right — and cars pulling out of side streets are the biggest threats.

5. What does the Kansas driving handbook say the right-of-way rules actually do?
Correct answer: They say who must yield; they do not hand anyone the right-of-way
You gain the right-of-way only when another road user gives it to you, and you must still do everything you can to avoid striking anyone.

6. What must a driver do at a yield sign?
Correct answer: Stop only when stopping is necessary to avoid interfering with traffic that has the right-of-way
Pedestrians count among the traffic you must not interfere with.

7. Your light is green but traffic is backed up on the far side of the intersection. What should you do?
Correct answer: Wait until you can clear the intersection before you enter it
You may not enter unless there is room on the other side, even with a green signal showing.

8. An emergency vehicle approaches showing flashing red lights and sounding a siren. What does Kansas law require?
Correct answer: Pull over to the right and stop, taking care not to block an intersection
You must also never follow an emergency vehicle that is responding to a call.

9. When must you stop for a school bus in Kansas?
Correct answer: Whenever it is stopped with red lights flashing or its stop arm out, unless a median separates you from it
You stay stopped until the lights stop flashing and the arm folds away, and drivers on the far roadway of a divided highway need not stop at all.

10. You are turning left at a steady green light with no arrow. Who has priority?
Correct answer: Approaching vehicles that are heading straight or making a right turn
A left-turning driver yields to oncoming traffic, and if both enter at the same moment the vehicle going straight through goes first.

11. Two vehicles reach an uncontrolled residential intersection at about the same moment. Who yields?
Correct answer: The driver on the left yields to the driver on the right
Where there is no sign or signal, you also yield to any vehicle that is already in the intersection.

12. At a four-way stop, which vehicle proceeds first?
Correct answer: The one that arrived first; if two arrive together, the one on the right
Order of arrival settles it, and a tie goes to the driver on the right.
