Arkansas Driver License Test Study Guide (English), official PDF fetched directly from https://media.ark.org/dps/Arkansas-DL-Manual-English-1.pdf, linked from the Arkansas State Police "Driver Examination" page at https://www.dps.arkansas.gov/law-enforcement/arkansas-state-police/services-programs/driver-examination/ (ASP now operates under the Arkansas Dept. of Public Safety's dps.arkansas.gov domain; the DFA driver-services page at https://www.dfa.arkansas.gov/office/driver-services/ links out to that same ASP page rather than hosting the guide itself) — covering right-of-way, speed/work-zone, signals, seatbelt/DUI/cell-phone/headlight law, the point system, the Instruction Permit/Learner's License/Intermediate License GDL sequence, parking distances, sharing-the-road (bicycle/motorcycle/school bus) rules, and the Child Passenger Protection Act — researched and verified 2026-08-19, re-verified 2026-08-20. CITATION GAP CLOSED 2026-08-20: the prior note cited only "Arkansas Driver License Study Guide (Vol. 1, Ed. 10, July 2026, Arkansas State Police)" with no actual URL/domain; this session fetched the live guide and confirmed the exact PDF host and its publishing agency page above. EXAM FORMAT — RENEWED ATTEMPT 2026-08-20, STILL UNCONFIRMED: the 7.9MB PDF was re-fetched fresh and its full text was successfully extracted (via pdftotext, ~193KB of readable text, not a scan) and searched exhaustively for "question," "pass," "score," and "exam" — the manual documents the exam application process (the $5 written-exam fee, retake/renewal rules, and the driving-skills-test scoring rubric) but never states a knowledge-test question count or passing score/percentage anywhere in its text. Arkansas DFA/State Police still do not publish this figure anywhere found. This module structurally infers a UNIFIED format (no dedicated sign-recognition gate was found in the study guide's design) and uses { signCount: 0, signPassCount: 0, ruleCount: 35, rulePassPct: 0.8 } as an ESTIMATE consistent with other unified-format states in this app — flagged here as unconfirmed pending an official source. Deliberately NOT asserted, because the study guide does not confirm them: general default/unposted speed limits for residential, business-district, rural highway, or interstate roads (only the 40 mph county-road default is confirmed); a textual statutory definition of reckless driving (only its 8-point value is listed); any left-turn-on-red rule; an exact point total that triggers automatic license suspension beyond the 14-point hearing threshold; and a specific rear-facing car-seat age/weight cutoff. Two pairs of facts are modeled as DISTINCT, not averaged or conflated: (1) the move-over law's two different fine caps — up to $1,000 (plus possible jail/community service/6-month suspension) for police/fire/ambulance/emergency vehicles versus up to $500 for ARDOT/utility/tow vehicles; and (2) the two separate 0.04% BAC contexts — the circumstance-triggered 'enhanced DWI' charge (0.04%-0.08%, only when a crash occurred or a serious traffic offense was committed) versus the unrelated 0.02% under-21 zero-tolerance 'Underage DUI' threshold, which needs no such triggering circumstance. META-QUESTION REMOVED 2026-08-20: r105 asked which statute number codifies the Child Passenger Protection Act — a citation-trivia question testing a code section, not a driving fact. Removed rather than replaced, since the manual's Child Passenger Protection Act section (Ark. Code §27-34-104) contains only the two facts already covered by r100/r101, with no further sourceable child-safety detail (seating position, booster specifics, rear-facing thresholds) found anywhere else in the manual. childsafety now has 5 questions, still meeting the 5-question route-node requirement. Re-verify periodically, as Arkansas DFA/State Police handbook content, fees, and thresholds change over time.
