Ohio road signs
Ohio road signs for the knowledge test
Traffic signs are one of the two subjects Ohio BMV explicitly names for its 40-question knowledge test. Study sign meaning, shape, color and the action required, then use the official sample test to check recall.
- 40 totalknowledge-test questions
- Traffic signstested subject

Learn the sign, not just the picture
- Regulatory signs that tell drivers what is required or prohibited.
- Warning signs for hazards and changing road conditions.
- Guide and route signs used for direction and services.
- Traffic signals and pavement markings that control lane movement and stopping.
You must be able to read traffic signs printed in English
Ohio BMV offers the knowledge test in several languages and can arrange interpreter-supported testing for other languages, but it states that customers must understand directions and read traffic signs printed in English.
Use the official sample knowledge test too
After studying signs in the Ohio Digest, use BMV's Sample Driver License Knowledge Test. Road to Permit is an independent study resource and does not reproduce or claim to contain the official exam.
