Most common mistakes in Alabama
Top wrong answers based on practice attempts in Alabama.
✕
Confusing right-of-way rules
At 4-way stops, the car that arrives first goes first. If tied, the one on the right has the right of way.
✕
Ignoring school zone speed limits
Speed limits near schools are strictly enforced. Missing this question is one of the most common failures.
✕
Wrong BAC limits
The 0.08% BAC limit isn't universal — under 21 it's lower. The test always picks the strictest applicable case.
✕
Parking rules confusion
Curb colors and parking distance from fire hydrants, crosswalks, and driveways trip up most first-timers.
