Vermont · Right-of-Way Practice
Right-of-way questions fail more permit test takers than any other topic — because the rules feel like judgment calls until you learn the system behind them. This page breaks down every right-of-way rule tested on the Vermont exam, then lets you practice them with instant AI explanations.
One mindset shift makes these questions easy: right-of-way is always *given*, never *taken*. The test asks who must yield — answer that, and the question solves itself.
Three sample questions from our practice bank. Read the explanation after each.
Question 1 · Knowledge test
How many questions are on the Vermont knowledge test, and how many must you get right?
Correct answer: 20 questions, 16 correct
Vermont: 20 questions, get 16 right (80%) to pass.
Question 2 · Winter driving
When driving on a steep, snowy Vermont mountain road, what should you do?
Correct answer: Slow down and use a lower gear downhill
Snowy mountain roads: slow down, use a lower gear downhill, and add following distance.
Question 3 · Sharing the road
How should you pass a bicyclist sharing the road?
Correct answer: Pass only when safe, leaving several feet of space
Pass cyclists slowly, leaving several feet of space — never crowd them.
It varies by version, but right-of-way and yielding scenarios are consistently among the largest topic groups on the Vermont exam — and the most commonly missed.
Right-of-way is given, not taken. Every question is really asking "who must yield?" — answer that and you'll get it right even when the wording is tricky.
In crosswalks — marked or unmarked — yes. The test loves this rule. Blind pedestrians with a white cane or guide dog have the right of way everywhere, always.
Yes. Our question bank tags every question by topic, so you can run right-of-way-only drills until you score 90%+, then mix them back into full 20-question mock exams.
