Rhode Island Road Sign Practice Test

How road signs are tested in Rhode Island

Road sign questions are part of the Rhode Island written knowledge test (40 multiple-choice questions, 28 right to pass). Know the signs well and those questions become easy points.

Signs from the Rhode Island Driver's Manual (April 2024). What every kind of sign means, by shape and color: our road sign guide.

Signs the Rhode Island Driver's Manual adds

• Rotary/Roundabout Diagram

  The Roundabout Ahead sign warns of a roundabout; slow down and follow roundabout rules. p. 40

• Turnabouts

  Before a turnabout, make sure: no sign prohibits it (such as No U Turn). p. 30

• Safe Driving on the Highway

  A speed limit is the maximum speed in ideal conditions; slow down for hills, curves, bad weather and other hazards. p. 36

• Rotary/Roundabout Diagram

  In a roundabout: slow to the posted speed and yield to pedestrians and other drivers. p. 40

• Traffic Lights/Signals:

  Unless a sign prohibits it, you may turn right on a steady red light after stopping completely and yielding to pedestrians and other vehicles; you are not required to turn right on red if you don't want to. p. 41

• Construction and Work Zone Safety Requirements

  Work zones are marked not only by signs but by other warning devices: cones, barrels and tubes, panels and barricades, flashing arrow boards and temporary markings on the road. p. 73

• Construction and Work Zone Safety Requirements

  Most work zone crashes are rear-end collisions, so don't tailgate. Merge early and when safe, moving to the right lane at first notice; watch for workers and equipment and for nighttime work zones; and expect the unexpected, since work zones change hourly. p. 73

• Signals and Roadway Markings

  Parking spaces marked with the wheelchair symbol, painted on the pavement or on a sign panel, are disabled parking spaces for vehicles with a permit only. p. 40
