1What does an upright triangular road sign with a red border generally communicate in Senegal?
A.A parking permission
B.A compulsory direction
C.A hazard ahead
D.The end of a restriction
Explanation: An upright triangle with a red border generally warns of danger. Read its symbol to identify the hazard and adjust your approach before reaching it.
2You approach a STOP sign at a quiet junction. There is no traffic on the intersecting road. What must you do?
A.Slow down and continue without stopping
B.Stop completely, check the intersecting road, and proceed when safe
C.Stop only if another vehicle appears
D.Treat it as a yield sign because the junction is empty
Explanation: A STOP sign requires a complete stop even when the junction appears empty. After stopping, yield to traffic on the intersecting road before entering safely.
3What distinguishes 'Cédez le passage' from STOP when you approach a clear junction with good visibility?
A.Yield requires giving way but does not always require a complete stop
B.Yield applies only to traffic from the right
C.Yield requires stopping, whereas STOP permits a rolling approach
D.Yield gives you priority if you reach the junction first
Explanation: Cédez le passage requires you to give way to traffic on the intersecting road. You may continue without a complete stop only when you can establish that entering is safe and will not impede that traffic.
4You are on a road marked with the yellow diamond indicating priority-road status. What is the best interpretation?
A.The road has priority status, but you must still observe any controlling signal or officer
B.You must yield to every vehicle approaching from the right
C.The road has a higher speed limit regardless of other signs
D.You have priority only at the next junction
Explanation: The diamond identifies a priority road rather than a speed limit. Priority status does not authorize you to ignore a red light, an officer's instruction, or a hazard at a junction.
5How do a typical red-bordered circular restriction sign and a blue circular instruction sign differ?
A.The blue sign cancels the restriction shown by the red-bordered sign
B.Both signs offer optional advice
C.The red-bordered sign applies only to cars; the blue sign only to motorcycles
D.The red-bordered sign restricts an action; the blue sign requires the indicated action
Explanation: Circular restriction signs communicate prohibitions or limits. Blue circular instruction signs communicate obligations, such as a direction that traffic must follow.
6A road entrance displays a sign prohibiting all motor vehicles. There is no exception panel. Which road user is prohibited from entering?
A.A person riding a pedal bicycle
B.A person driving a motorcycle
C.A pedestrian walking along the road
D.A person leading an animal on foot
Explanation: A motorcycle is a motor vehicle and is covered by the stated prohibition. Restrictions on pedestrians, bicycles, or animals would need to be established separately.
7A circular red-bordered speed sign shows '50'. What does the number mean?
A.An advisory speed of 50 km/h
B.A minimum speed of 50 km/h
C.A maximum permitted speed of 50 km/h
D.A requirement to maintain exactly 50 km/h
Explanation: The sign sets a maximum speed of 50 km/h. You may need to travel more slowly when traffic, visibility, or road conditions make that necessary.
8A blue circular sign at a traffic island directs vehicles to pass on its right. What should you do?
A.Turn into the next side street on the right
B.Pass on either side if there is no opposing traffic
C.Stop beside the island before choosing a side
D.Pass to the right of the island
Explanation: The instruction identifies the side on which you must pass the obstacle. It does not itself tell you to turn into a different road or to stop.
9A slow-moving truck is ahead of you and a continuous white centreline separates opposing traffic. May you cross the line to overtake?
A.Yes, if you return before an oncoming vehicle arrives
B.No; the truck's low speed does not authorize crossing the continuous line
C.Yes, if the truck driver signals for you to pass
D.Yes, if only the wheels on one side cross the line
Explanation: The road code prohibits crossing or straddling a continuous dividing line. A slow vehicle or another driver's invitation does not remove that restriction.
10A broken centreline separates the two directions on a two-lane road. What must you establish before crossing it to overtake?
A.That overtaking is otherwise permitted and there is enough visibility, clear road, and space to return safely
B.Only that the vehicle ahead is moving below the speed limit
C.Only that the vehicle ahead has not activated its indicators
D.That your vehicle can exceed the speed limit briefly
Explanation: A broken line may be crossed for a permitted manoeuvre, but it does not guarantee a safe passing opportunity. You must also assess visibility, opposing traffic, other restrictions, and the space needed to return.
