4. What does the manual name as the cause of more than half of the crashes between motorcycles and cars?
Correct answer: Drivers moving into the rider's right-of-way

6. What does the manual say about a driver who appears to look right at you?
Correct answer: It is no promise that the driver will give way
Eye contact is never a promise that the driver will yield: drivers look straight at motorcyclists and still fail to register them.

7. A vehicle is already inside the intersection when you arrive. What does Nevada expect of you?
Correct answer: Let it clear before you enter

8. Pulling out of a private driveway onto a main road, a driver must yield to:
Correct answer: all traffic on the road and to pedestrians

9. At a stop sign where buildings block your view, what should you do after the first stop?
Correct answer: Creep ahead and halt again before the cross lane, keeping the front wheel clear of it

10. A pedestrian using a white cane or a guide dog steps toward the roadway. What is required of a driver?
Correct answer: Yield, coming to a full stop if that is what it takes
Nevada gives priority to a pedestrian who is blind or has limited vision and who is guided by a service animal or carries a white cane; a driver must yield, coming to a full stop where that is needed.

11. How does the Nevada handbook describe the state's right-of-way statutes?
Correct answer: They never grant the right-of-way to anyone; they only say who must yield
Nevada law never hands anyone the right-of-way; it only sets out who is obliged to yield, and even a driver with priority is expected to take every step that would head off a collision.

12. Between a vehicle already in the intersection going straight and one waiting to turn left, who has priority?
Correct answer: The vehicle traveling straight through
The vehicle traveling straight through and already in the intersection goes first; the left-turning vehicle takes its turn afterward.
