What sharing the road rules are on the Oklahoma permit test?

Oklahoma's sharing the road questions come from its own statutes and the Service Oklahoma handbook. QuizLane covers 3 Oklahoma-specific sharing the road items, drawn from 2 distinct source sections, alongside 10 questions on rules that apply in every state.

How many sharing the road questions are on the Oklahoma permit test?

Service Oklahoma does not publish a per-topic breakdown. The test as a whole has 20 questions and you need 15 correct (75%) to pass, so sharing the road is worth studying alongside every other topic rather than in isolation.

Are these official Oklahoma DMV sharing the road questions?

No. These are original study questions written against Oklahoma law and the official handbook, each carrying the section it came from. They are not endorsed by Service Oklahoma and are not copies of the real exam.

Do I need an account to practice Oklahoma sharing the road questions?

No. Practice starts immediately as a guest. An account is optional and only saves your attempt history across devices.

When an Oklahoma school or church bus has flashing red lights and/or a red STOP sign displayed, you must:

Stop and remain stopped until the bus starts moving, the driver motions you on, or the red lights/sign are no longer displayed

Slow to 15 mph and pass carefully

Stop only if children are visible

You generally do NOT have to stop for an Oklahoma school bus when:

The bus is on a different roadway or you are approaching on a divided highway where stop is not required

You are behind the bus in the same lane

Oklahoma’s Move Over / Bernardo-Mills Law requires that when approaching a stationary vehicle with flashing lights pulled to the side of the road, you must:

Move over a lane if safe, or slow down and use caution

Stop in the travel lane until waved through

Honk continuously while passing

3 questions on Oklahoma’s own sharing the road rules

These differ from the rules that hold nationally — they are the ones that catch out drivers who studied another state’s handbook.

1. When an Oklahoma school or church bus has flashing red lights and/or a red STOP sign displayed, you must:
- ASlow to 15 mph and pass carefully
- Stop and remain stopped until the bus starts moving, the driver motions you on, or the red lights/sign are no longer displayed
- CStop only if children are visible
- DHonk and proceed
Answer: Stop and remain stopped until the bus starts moving, the driver motions you on, or the red lights/sign are no longer displayed. The Oklahoma Driver Manual requires you to stop for a bus with flashing red lights and/or a red STOP sign and remain stopped until the bus has started moving, the driver motions for you to proceed, or the red flashing lights go off and/or the sign is pulled back.

2. You generally do NOT have to stop for an Oklahoma school bus when:
- The bus is on a different roadway or you are approaching on a divided highway where stop is not required
- BChildren appear older than 12
- CYou are behind the bus in the same lane

The Oklahoma Driver Manual states you don’t have to stop for a school bus when the bus is on a different roadway, when it is stopped in a loading zone by a controlled-access highway where pedestrians are not allowed to cross, or when approaching traffic is not required to stop for a school bus on a divided highway.

- Move over a lane if safe, or slow down and use caution
