Texas car practice set 2, Class C

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.

A second practice set, drawn fresh, leaning harder on the areas where Texas changed its mind recently: the end of safety inspections for non-commercial vehicles, emissions testing only in the emissions counties, metal plates and the transfer rules that came with them, and a centre stop lamp that may now pulse without flashing. If your other study material still teaches an annual inspection or a paper tag, it is older than the law. Graded against our practice target of 60 percent, as every Texas set here is.

25 questions, drawn from the full bank, graded against our practice target of 60 percent. DPS publishes no question count and no pass mark for the real test, and no time limit, so the count here is our set size and the timer is a study device. There's no signup and nothing to pay.

Five sample questions, answers hidden until you tap

Another driver passes you on the left and gives an audible signal as they pass. What must you do?

✓ Correct answer: Move or stay to the right in favour of the passing vehicle, and don't increase your speed until it has completely passed you

On an audible signal, the driver being passed moves or stays to the right for the passing vehicle. That driver also may not speed up until the passing vehicle has completely passed. (Texas Transportation Code sec. 545.053(b).)

Texas Transportation Code sec. 545.053(b), checked 2026-11-03.

Your green light faces a lane of traffic stopped across the intersection, with no room to clear it. What does the signal law's yield logic require?

✓ Correct answer: Yield to the traffic lawfully within the intersection before proceeding

Green lets you proceed or turn, and in the same subsection it keeps your duty to yield to vehicles lawfully in the intersection and to stop and yield to pedestrians lawfully there or in an adjacent crosswalk. A green light doesn't clear the box for you. (Texas Transportation Code sec. 544.007(b).)

Texas Transportation Code sec. 544.007(b), checked 2026-11-03.

Driving while intoxicated with a passenger of 13 in the car is what offence?

✓ Correct answer: A state jail felony, because the passenger is younger than 15

A child passenger under 15 turns a DWI into a state jail felony in its own section. The child's age, not the amount drunk, does the raising. (Texas Penal Code sec. 49.045(a) and (b).)

Texas Penal Code sec. 49.045(a) and (b), checked 2026-11-03.

When must you dim your high beams?

✓ Correct answer: Within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle, and within 300 feet of a vehicle you are following

The two numbers differ because the two blinding angles differ. Five hundred for the driver facing you, three hundred for the driver whose mirrors you are filling. (Texas Transportation Code sec. 547.333(c)(1) and (2).)

Texas Transportation Code sec. 547.333(c)(1) and (2), checked 2026-11-03.

A red arrow points to the right while the through lanes beside you have a green light. You want to turn right. What does the red arrow require?

✓ Correct answer: Stop and make no movement in the direction of the arrow until a green arrow or green light shows for it

An arrow speaks to one movement only. A red arrow forbids that movement until a green arrow or green signal shows for it, and a green light for someone else's movement doesn't release it. (Texas Transportation Code ch. 544, uniform device meanings adopted under sec. 544.001.)
