Texas DPS states that any knowledge exam requires a grade of 70 percent or better, and DPS fee pages list Class C driver license fees of $16 under age 18 and $33 for ages 18 to 84.

A.Stop completely before proceeding when it is safe
B.Yield only if other traffic is already in the intersection
C.A railroad crossing is a few hundred feet ahead
D.Do not pass other vehicles
Explanation: The Texas Driver Handbook says an octagon is used exclusively for STOP signs. A stop sign means come to a complete stop, yield to pedestrians or other vehicles, and then proceed carefully when it is safe.
2What does an equilateral triangle sign mean in Texas road-sign shape rules?
A.Stop
B.Yield
C.School crossing
D.Railroad advance warning
Explanation: Texas lists the equilateral triangle as the shape used exclusively for YIELD signs. A yield sign tells you to slow, be prepared to stop, and give the right-of-way to traffic or pedestrians that must go first.
3In the Texas standard colors table, what is the main meaning of red on road signs?
A.Motorist services guidance
B.Construction and maintenance warning
C.Stop, yield, or do what is posted
D.Public recreation and scenic guidance
Explanation: The Texas Driver Handbook identifies red as the color for stop, yield, or doing what is posted on the sign. Red is used on critical regulatory signs such as STOP, YIELD, DO NOT ENTER, and WRONG WAY.
4A yellow road sign in Texas usually communicates what type of message?
A.General warning or caution
B.A hospital or fuel service is nearby
C.A route number or destination guide
D.A no-parking regulation only
Explanation: Texas uses yellow for general warning or caution signs. These signs alert drivers to conditions ahead, such as curves, intersections, school areas, lane reductions, animals, or slippery pavement.
5What is green used for on Texas road signs?
A.School crossing warnings
B.Indicated movements permitted and direction guidance
C.Construction and maintenance warnings
D.Reserved disabled parking only
Explanation: The Texas standard colors table says green indicates permitted movements and direction guidance. Green signs commonly guide drivers by showing routes, destinations, exits, and permitted lane movements.

A.Motorist services guidance
B.General warning or caution
C.No-passing zones
D.Railroad advance warning

A.Public recreation guidance
B.Construction and maintenance warning
C.Hospital and service guidance
D.Railroad crossing location

8A brown sign in the Texas standard color table generally means what?
A.Regulation
B.Construction warning
C.Public recreation and scenic guidance
D.Stop or yield
Explanation: Brown signs are used for public recreation and scenic guidance. They help direct drivers to parks, historic areas, scenic routes, and recreation-related destinations rather than giving traffic-control commands.

A.Existing or possible hazards on or near the road
B.A place where all traffic must stop
C.A destination and distance guide
D.A railroad crossing location at the tracks

A.Railroad advance warning
B.School advance or school crossing
C.No passing zone

Explanation: The Texas Driver Handbook identifies the pentagon as the shape for school advance and school crossing signs. When you see one, slow down, watch for children, and be ready to stop suddenly if necessary.

About the Texas Road Signs Practice Exam

This Texas road signs practice set prepares drivers for the signs, traffic signals, pavement markings, railroad crossing, pedestrian control, and work-zone material in Chapter 5 of the official Texas Driver Handbook. Texas DPS describes the Class C knowledge exam as the written exam for original applicants and states that applicants must score 70 percent or better on any knowledge exam. DPS does not publish a separate official road-signs-only Class C exam, so this page is framed as targeted practice for the signs, signals, and markings portion of the broader knowledge test.

Texas Road Signs Practice Study Tips from Top Performers

1Read Chapter 5 of the Texas Driver Handbook first, then drill signs by function: traffic control, warning, guide, railroad, pavement marking, and work-zone control.
2Memorize shapes and colors before details: octagon for STOP, triangle for YIELD, diamond for hazards, pentagon for school, round for railroad advance warning, pennant for no passing, orange for work zones, and blue for motorist services.
3Separate similar signals carefully: flashing red requires a complete stop, flashing yellow means caution, steady yellow means stop if you can do so safely, and a flashing yellow left-turn arrow requires yielding.
4Practice pavement markings until yellow means opposing traffic or left edge, white means same-direction lanes or right edge, broken lines are permissive when safe, and solid or double-solid lines restrict crossing.
5Do not skip railroad and work-zone details: Texas uses 15-to-50-foot railroad stops, emergency notification signs, flaggers, channelizing devices, arrow panels, and doubled fines in work zones when workers are present.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Texas DPS have a separate official road signs test?

Texas DPS publishes a Class C driver license knowledge exam and the Texas Driver Handbook chapter on signals, signs, and markers. DPS does not publish a separate official road-signs-only Class C exam, so this practice bank is targeted preparation for that portion of the broader knowledge test.

What score do I need on the Texas knowledge exam?

The Texas Driver Handbook states that applicants must score a grade of 70 percent or better to pass any knowledge exam. This page focuses only on signs, signals, and pavement markings, so it should be used with broader Texas permit-test practice.

How much does the Texas road signs test cost?

Texas DPS does not list a separate fee for a road-signs-only test. DPS lists Class A, B, or C driver license fees of $16 for under-18 new applicants and $33 for new applicants ages 18 to 84.

What Texas road signs topics should I study?

Study Texas Driver Handbook Chapter 5: traffic signals, sign colors, sign shapes, warning signs, regulatory signs, guide signs, railroad warning signs, pavement markings, construction and maintenance devices, channelizing devices, flaggers, and slow-moving vehicle emblems.

Why does this practice include FHWA MUTCD topics?

Texas handbook examples use standardized traffic-control devices, and FHWA's Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices is the national official standard for traffic signs, signals, and markings. The MUTCD is used here to support terminology while Texas DPS materials remain the primary driver-test source.
