D: Stop. The octagon shape is used only for STOP signs. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Signs, page 28.

A: Come to a full stop before proceeding, then yield and go with caution. When traffic control lights are not working, come to a full stop, yield to pedestrians and vehicles already stopped or in the intersection, then proceed with caution. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Signals, page 30.

D: Counterclockwise. All traffic moves in one direction around the roundabout: counterclockwise. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Roundabouts, page 44.

B: Drive at a reasonable and proper speed for traffic, weather, visibility and road conditions. The Basic Rule requires a reasonable or proper speed considering traffic, weather, visibility, road surface and type of road, which may be less than the posted limit. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Controlling Speed, page 35.

A: Two seconds. At 40 mph or less, stay at least two seconds behind the vehicle ahead; this is a minimum. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Defensive Driving Tips, page 42.

B: Signal and accelerate to or near the speed of freeway traffic, yielding to traffic already on it. Use the merge lane to find an opening, signal and accelerate to or near freeway speed; don't stop unless necessary. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Freeway Driving, page 36.

B: It does not give anyone the right-of-way; it only says who must yield. Nevada law never grants the right-of-way; it only spells out who must yield. Even when others should yield to you, you still have to do all you can to avoid a crash. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Right-of-Way, page 34.

C: Traffic already circulating in the roundabout. Entering traffic must yield to traffic already circulating within the roundabout. Nevada Driver's Handbook (Official Driver Handbook, DMV 700): Roundabouts, page 44.
