Florida signs practice test
Private practice site. Chapbook is not a government agency and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any department of motor vehicles, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, or any state or county agency. These are practice tests written by us to help you study. They are not the official test, and passing here does not give you a licence, a permit, a card, or a certificate of any kind.
FLHSMV names identifying traffic controls as one of the three areas the Class E exam covers, and the bank carries 64 sign and signal questions for it. They run from stop line discipline through flashing signals to what a steady yellow actually orders, which is less than most drivers think and more than the ones who run it believe. Every answer cites its section of chapter 316.
Each topic set draws up to 20 questions from that topic in the Florida bank and grades against our practice target of 80 percent. The target is our study goal, not FLHSMV's pass mark.

Five sample questions, answers hidden until you tap
You reach a stop sign where a stop line is painted on the road. Where must you stop?
✓ Correct answer: At the stop line
A stop sign means a full stop at the stop line when one is painted. Roll past it and you have not made the stop the law requires. Florida Statutes section 316.123.

A signal ahead is flashing yellow. What does it require?
✓ Correct answer: Proceed through with caution; no stop is required
Flashing yellow is a caution signal, often used at intersections with a hazard or at odd hours. Slow down, look, and continue. It never means speed up. Florida Statutes section 316.076.

A driver is convicted of possessing or using a traffic signal preemption device without lawful authority. How many points does that conviction add to the record?
✓ Correct answer: 4 points under the point schedule
The point schedule lists a conviction under section 316.0775(2) at 4 points, and that subsection covers possessing or using a traffic signal preemption device without lawful authority. Knocking down a sign sits in subsection (1) instead, where it's treated as criminal mischief. Florida Statutes section 322.27(3)(d)11.

A five-sided sign, shaped like a house with a pointed top, stands near a school. What does it mark?
✓ Correct answer: A school crossing or school zone
The pentagon is the school sign shape, used for school crossings and school zone warnings. Its shape alone tells drivers to expect children. Florida Statutes section 316.0745.
Source: Florida Statutes section 316.0745, checked 2026-11-03.
Which statement about traffic signs is correct?
✓ Correct answer: Signs, signals, and pavement markings are all traffic control devices that drivers must obey
Section 316.003(50) defines official traffic control devices as all signs, signals, markings and other devices placed by a public body to regulate, warn or guide traffic. Section 316.074(1) then requires drivers to obey them, and there's no daylight exception and no disagreement exception. Florida Statutes sections 316.003 and 316.074.
