7. Which left turn on a red light does the Wyoming manual permit?

8. What does a red arrow in a Wyoming traffic signal mean?
Correct answer: Turning the way the arrow points is not allowed

9. Where must a Wyoming driver stop for a steady red light?
Correct answer: Behind the crosswalk or the stop line

12. An overhead lane sign in Wyoming shows an arrow with the word ONLY. What does that require?
Correct answer: Traveling the way the arrow points is required, with no other choice
