Sample question from test 4
signs
Where should a driver go when an Illinois KEEP RIGHT sign points around an obstruction?
- To the side indicated by the arrow, around the traffic island, median, or obstruction
- Into the opposing lane whenever that lane is empty
- To the left of the obstruction regardless of the arrow
- Only onto the shoulder, even when a lane is open
Answer: To the side indicated by the arrow, around the traffic island, median, or obstruction. The KEEP RIGHT sign tells drivers where to travel when a traffic island, median, or other obstruction occupies the middle of the roadway. The arrow identifies the side to use, so a driver should guide the vehicle around the obstruction on that indicated side. An empty opposing lane does not make it lawful to use the wrong side, and the left-side choice ignores the sign. The shoulder is not the default route either. Slow enough to position safely, watch surrounding traffic, and follow the arrow through the narrowed area.
