Practice Test 12

You've just been overtaken by this motorcyclist. What should you do if the rider cuts in sharply?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - You've just been overtaken by this motorcyclist. What should you do if the rider cuts in sharply? If another vehicle cuts in sharply, ease off the accelerator and drop back to allow a safe separation distance. Try not to overreact by braking sharply or swerving, as you could lose control. If vehicles behind you are too close or unprepared, it could lead to a crash.

Where would you see this sign?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vulnerable road users - Where would you see this sign? Vehicles that are used to carry children to and from school will be travelling at busy times of the day. If you're following a vehicle with this sign, be prepared for it to make frequent stops. It might pick up or set down passengers in places other than normal bus stops.

Why is it important to wear suitable shoes when you're driving?

You've stopped at a railway level crossing. What should you do if the red lights continue to flash after a train has gone by?

How should you dispose of a used vehicle battery?

You're in a line of traffic. What action should you take if the driver behind is following very closely?

What type of vehicle could you expect to meet in the middle of the road?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - What type of vehicle could you expect to meet in the middle of the road? The highest point of the bridge is in the centre, so a large vehicle might have to move to the centre of the road to have enough room to pass safely under the bridge.

What must you do if you come across roadworks that have a temporary speed limit displayed?

You're following a large vehicle as it approaches a crossroads. What should you do if the driver signals to turn left?

Why should you reduce your speed here?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - Why should you reduce your speed here? Traffic could be turning off or pulling out ahead of you, to the left or right. Vehicles turning left will be slowing down before the junction, and any vehicles turning right may have to stop to allow oncoming traffic to clear. Be prepared for this, as you might have to slow down or stop behind them.

Where would it be unsafe to overtake?

What should you do when you're approaching this crossing?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vulnerable road users - What should you do when you're approaching this crossing? Be courteous and prepare to stop. Don't wave people across, because this could be dangerous if another vehicle is approaching the crossing.

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? Avoid blocking tram routes. Trams are fixed on their route and can't manoeuvre around other vehicles or pedestrians. Modern trams travel quickly and are quiet, so you might not hear them approaching.

Who's responsible for making sure that a vehicle isn't overloaded?

You're driving on a motorway at night. Which lights should you have on if there are other vehicles just ahead of you?

Your vehicle breaks down on a motorway and you manage to stop on the hard shoulder. What should you do if you use your mobile phone to call for help?

You're following a lorry on a wet road. What should you do when spray makes it difficult to see the road ahead?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Other types of vehicle - You're following a lorry on a wet road. What should you do when spray makes it difficult to see the road ahead? Large vehicles can throw up a lot of spray when it's wet. This makes it difficult for drivers behind to see the road ahead. You'll be able to see more by dropping back further, out of the spray. This will also increase your separation distance, giving you more room to stop if you have to.

Why is travelling in neutral for long distances (known as coasting) bad driving technique?

When would you use the right-hand lane on a three-lane motorway?

What shape are traffic signs giving orders?

Which colour follows the green signal at a puffin crossing?

You're following a long vehicle approaching a crossroads. What should you do if the driver signals right but moves close to the left-hand kerb?

A police officer asks to see your documents. You don't have them with you. How many days do you have to produce them at a police station?

What should you do if you have to make a journey in foggy conditions?

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? You should change lanes as directed by the sign. Here, the right-hand lane is closed but the left-hand and centre lanes are available. Merging in turn is recommended when it's safe and traffic is going slowly; for example, at roadworks or a road traffic incident. When vehicles are travelling at speed, this isn't advisable and you should move into the appropriate lane in good time.

You're driving on an icy road. What distance from the car in front should you drive?

At traffic lights, what does it mean when the amber light shows on its own?

It's very windy. What should you do if you're behind a motorcyclist who's overtaking a high-sided vehicle?

What should you do as you approach this cyclist?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - What should you do as you approach this cyclist? Keep well back and give the cyclist time and room to turn safely. Don’t intimidate them by getting too close or trying to squeeze past.

The road outside this school is marked with yellow zigzag lines. What do these lines mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vulnerable road users - The road outside this school is marked with yellow zigzag lines. What do these lines mean? Parking here would block other road users' view of the school entrance and would endanger the lives of children on their way to and from school.

You're driving on the motorway. What should you do if luggage falls from your vehicle?

How should you drive when you're driving along a road that has road humps?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Safety and your vehicle - How should you drive when you're driving along a road that has road humps? Road humps are there for a reason – to protect vulnerable road users by reducing the speed of traffic. Don’t accelerate harshly between the humps. Put the safety of others first and maintain a reduced speed throughout the zone.
