Driving Test

After an 18 hour theory class I am now studying for my driving exam.  It is a very different process than the tests in the United States - covering a lot of information we are not required to know.  In addition, the questions are worded in such a way that you have to read slowly and carefully.  You get 30 minutes to answer 30 questions.  Over the next couple of weeks I will post some of the more "interesting" questions as I prepare to take my theory exam.  I am praying to be ready to test the first week of April.

1. If you remove the key while the vehicle is in motion, what happens?
  • a.  Only the engine turns off.
  • b.  The engine turns off and the steering wheel locks.
  • c.   You save fuel.

2.  Are you permitted to drive a farm tractor weighing over 3,500 kilograms of maximum authorized mass with a class B (that is what I am trying to get) driving license?
  • a.  No, because it exceeds the 3,500 kilograms of maximum authorized mass.
  • b.  Yes, if the maximum authorized speed does not exceed 40 kilometers per hour.
  • c.  Yes, if it is carrying fewer than nine people, including the driver.
3.  When changing direction at a junction you come upon a flock or herd crossing the carriageway.  there is no animal crossing sign posted.  Who has the right of way?

  • a.  I do, as no animal crossing is posted.
  • b.  The livestock.
  • c.  It depends on whether they are on my left or right.


4.  What does this sign indicate?  
  • a.  A level crossing with or without barriers, for more than one train track.
  • b.  A level crossing with barriers, for one or more than one train track.
  • c.  A level crossing without barriers for more than one train track.

5.  You should not take alcohol before driving because, even in small quantities, alcohol can cause, among other things, ....
  • a.  reaction time to increase, while not reducing the distance covered in that time.
  • b.  reaction time to decrease, as well as the distance covered in that time.
  • c.  both reaction time and the distance covered in that time to increase.



Answers:  1.  b, 2. c, 3. b, 4. c, 5. c
