You're approaching traffic lights and the red light is showing. What signal will show next?

What will reduce fuel consumption?

You're about to start a journey in freezing weather. What part of your vehicle should you clear of ice and snow?

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? Temporary restrictions on motorways are shown on signs that have flashing amber lights. At the end of the restriction, you'll see this sign without any flashing lights.

You’re driving in heavy traffic. It has rained, but now bright sun is causing glare on the wet road. A car overtakes, then pulls back sharply into the traffic just in front of you. Further on, there’s a roundabout with two lanes on approach. You need to take the first exit, turning left. A large vehicle in front signals left but straddles both lanes. The traffic is still heavy, and there’s a zebra crossing up ahead. People are waiting to cross.

You're about to drive your car. What should you do if you can't find the glasses you need to wear?

What's the maximum fine for driving or riding without insurance?

What should you do when you see these horse riders in front?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vulnerable road users - What should you do when you see these horse riders in front? Be particularly careful when approaching horse riders – slow down and be prepared to stop. Always pass wide and slowly, and look out for signals given by the riders. Horses are unpredictable: always treat them as potential hazards and take great care when passing them.

You’ve just bought your first car, a good second-hand vehicle. It has passed its MOT but the vehicle tax needs to be paid. You arrange and pay for the highest level of insurance cover available. You receive a cover note from your insurance company. You then go to the local post office to pay the vehicle tax.

You're waiting to come out of a side road. Why should you look carefully for motorcycles?

What should you do when you meet an oncoming vehicle on a single-track road?

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? Where there's a cycle route ahead, a sign will show a bicycle in a red warning triangle. Watch out for children on bicycles and cyclists rejoining the main road.

When should you use the left-hand lane of a motorway?

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? This sign is found where a shallow stream crosses the road. Heavy rainfall could increase the flow of water. If the water looks too deep or the stream has spread over a large distance, stop and find another route.

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? This sign is shown where slow-moving vehicles would impede the flow of traffic; for example, in tunnels. However, if you need to slow down or even stop to avoid an incident or potential collision, you should do so.

What must you do if your ability to drive is impaired during a period of illness?

You need to top up your battery with distilled water. What level should you fill it to?

What does this motorway sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this motorway sign mean? Look out for signs above your lane or on the central reservation. These will give you important information or warnings about the road ahead. To allow for the high speed of motorway traffic, these signs may light up some distance from any hazard. Don't ignore the signs just because the road looks clear to you.

You're driving on a motorway. What does it mean if the car in front shows its hazard warning lights for a short time?

You want to turn left at this junction. What should you do if your view of the main road is restricted?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - You want to turn left at this junction. What should you do if your view of the main road is restricted? You should slow right down, and stop if necessary, at any junction where your view is restricted. Edge forward until you can see properly. Only then can you decide whether it's safe to go.

You're driving on a road with several lanes. What do these signs above the lanes mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - You're driving on a road with several lanes. What do these signs above the lanes mean? On some busy roads, lane control signals are used to vary the number of lanes available to give priority to the main traffic flow. A green arrow indicates that the lane is available to traffic facing the signal. A white diagonal arrow means that the lane is closed ahead and traffic should move to the next lane on the left. A red cross means that the lane is closed to traffic facing the signal.

What restrictions apply if you're towing a trailer on a three-lane motorway?

Why should you try and park in a secure car park?

Where would you find green reflective studs on a motorway?

You're having difficulty finding a parking space in a busy town. Can you park on the zigzag lines of a zebra crossing?

You're waiting to emerge from a junction. The windscreen pillar is restricting your view. What should you be particularly aware of?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Alertness - You're waiting to emerge from a junction. The windscreen pillar is restricting your view. What should you be particularly aware of? Windscreen pillars can completely block your view of pedestrians, motorcyclists and cyclists. You should make a particular effort to look for these road users; don’t just rely on a quick glance.

What should you do while you're driving or riding along a motorway?

What does this sign mean?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Road and traffic signs - What does this sign mean? It will take up to 10 times longer to stop when it’s icy. Where there's a risk of icy conditions, you need to be aware of this and take extra care. If you think the road may be icy, don’t brake or steer harshly, as your tyres could lose their grip on the road.

When may you sound your vehicle's horn?

It’s early evening and the street lamps are lit. You’re driving home at 30 mph, although there are no speed-limit signs. The road is a single carriageway and you’re alone in your vehicle. Sleet is falling steadily and it’s cold. Ahead, a vehicle is spreading salt on the road. In town there are high-occupancy vehicle lanes, which you don’t use. Your home is level with a zebra crossing but you park beyond its markings, further down the road.

You're travelling in very heavy rain. How is this likely to affect your overall stopping distance?
