DVSA Driving Theory Test — Questions and Answers

Question 1: When approaching a junction, you see a rectangular blue sign with a large white arrow pointing forwards and a smaller red arrow pointing in the opposite direction. What does this mean for you?

The road ahead narrows
You have priority over oncoming vehicles (Correct answer)
You are on a one-way street
Oncoming traffic has priority

Correct answer: You have priority over oncoming vehicles

This rectangular blue sign indicates that you have priority over vehicles travelling from the opposite direction. It is often used where the road narrows and only one vehicle can pass at a time.

Question 2: What colour are direction signs on primary routes (most A-roads) in the UK?

Brown
Blue
Green (Correct answer)
White

Correct answer: Green

Primary route signs use a green background with white text, indicating A-roads and major through routes.

Question 3: What do blue circular signs on UK roads indicate?

Information only, with no legal requirement
Mandatory instructions that must be obeyed (Correct answer)
A prohibition that drivers must not do
A general warning of danger ahead

Correct answer: Mandatory instructions that must be obeyed

Blue circular signs give mandatory instructions that all drivers must follow, such as 'turn left ahead'.

Question 4: What is the most eco-friendly action to take when you know you will be stationary for more than a couple of minutes?

Switch to neutral but keep the engine running
Keep the engine running to warm the cabin
Turn the engine off (Correct answer)
Rev the engine gently to avoid it stalling

Correct answer: Turn the engine off

Switching the engine off when stationary for more than a minute or two prevents unnecessary fuel burn and reduces exhaust emissions.

Question 5: What should you do if your vehicle's 'check engine' or emissions warning light illuminates while driving?

Ignore it if the vehicle seems to be running normally
Have the vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible (Correct answer)
Top up the engine oil immediately
Reset it yourself using the trip computer

Correct answer: Have the vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible

A check engine or emissions warning light indicates a fault that could increase harmful emissions or damage the engine, and the vehicle should be checked promptly.

Question 6: Which of these is a legal requirement for a 'Class 3' powered mobility scooter to be used on the road?

The user must be over 18 years of age.
The user must have a full car driving licence.
It must be registered with the DVLA. (Correct answer)
It must be fitted with a flashing amber beacon at all times.

Correct answer: It must be registered with the DVLA.

Class 3 mobility scooters, which can travel up to 8 mph on the road, must be registered with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). While they don't require road tax or a driving licence, the user must be at least 14 years old. They must also be equipped with lights, indicators, a horn, and a rear-view mirror for road use.

Question 7: What is the national speed limit on a motorway for a car not towing a trailer?

60 mph
There is no set limit
70 mph (Correct answer)
80 mph

Correct answer: 70 mph

The national speed limit on motorways for cars, motorcycles, car-derived vans, and dual-purpose vehicles is 70 mph. Cars towing trailers or caravans have a lower limit of 60 mph on motorways.

Question 8: Your car breaks down on a motorway with a hard shoulder. After pulling over to the hard shoulder, what is the first thing you should do?

Switch on your hazard warning lights. (Correct answer)
Attempt to carry out simple repairs on your vehicle.
Place a warning triangle 45 metres behind your vehicle.
Get out of your vehicle and stand in front of it to warn oncoming traffic.

Correct answer: Switch on your hazard warning lights.

If you break down on a motorway, the first priority is to warn other drivers. You should switch on your hazard warning lights immediately. You should not use a warning triangle on a motorway. Exit the vehicle from the left-hand side and wait behind the safety barrier.

Question 9: You are driving on a country lane with no pavement. What should you be particularly aware of on a left-hand bend?

Oncoming traffic cutting the corner. (Correct answer)
Pedestrians walking on the right, with their back to you.
The road surface being more worn on the bend.
Pedestrians walking on the left, towards you.

Correct answer: Oncoming traffic cutting the corner.

On a blind or sharp left-hand bend, a common and dangerous hazard is an oncoming vehicle cutting the corner and encroaching into your lane. You should reduce your speed and keep well to the left to mitigate this risk. Pedestrians on a road with no pavement should walk on the right, facing oncoming traffic.

Question 10: What is the overall stopping distance at 60 mph on a dry road?

96 metres (315 feet)
53 metres (175 feet)
120 metres (394 feet)
73 metres (240 feet) (Correct answer)

Correct answer: 73 metres (240 feet)

At 60 mph, the typical overall stopping distance on a dry road is 73 metres (240 feet). This includes 18 metres thinking distance and 55 metres braking distance. In wet conditions, these distances at least double.

Question 11: A pelican crossing differs from a puffin crossing because:

It is only used near schools
It detects pedestrians and adjusts the green light timing
It has no lights for pedestrians
It has a flashing amber phase for drivers (Correct answer)

Correct answer: It has a flashing amber phase for drivers

A pelican crossing has a flashing amber light phase, during which drivers may proceed if the crossing is clear of pedestrians. Puffin crossings use sensors to detect pedestrians and do not have a flashing amber phase — they go straight from red to green.

Question 12: What does a circular sign with a red border and a diagonal red bar through it indicate?

A prohibition — that particular action is not permitted (Correct answer)
A mandatory instruction to turn around
An advisory warning to slow down
A speed limit that applies in that area

Correct answer: A prohibition — that particular action is not permitted

A red circle with a diagonal bar is used for prohibition signs, meaning the depicted action is not allowed.

Question 13: You are driving on a country road at 50 mph. How much distance should you allow for thinking distance alone?

9 metres (30 feet)
15 metres (50 feet) (Correct answer)
12 metres (40 feet)
18 metres (60 feet)

Correct answer: 15 metres (50 feet)

At 50 mph, the thinking distance is approximately 15 metres (50 feet). A useful rule of thumb is that thinking distance in feet roughly equals your speed in mph — so at 50 mph, thinking distance is about 50 feet (15 metres).

Question 14: What is the minimum legal tyre tread depth for a car in the UK?

1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. (Correct answer)
1.0 mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre.
1.6 mm across the entire width of the tyre.
2.0 mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre.

Correct answer: 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre.

UK law requires that car tyres must have a minimum tread depth of 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the breadth of the tread and around the entire outer circumference of the tyre.

Question 15: You see brake lights come on several vehicles ahead of you on a motorway. What does this suggest?

The vehicles are keeping the correct distance
There is a speed camera ahead
The road surface has changed
There may be a hazard or traffic queue forming ahead (Correct answer)

Correct answer: There may be a hazard or traffic queue forming ahead

Multiple brake lights ahead on a motorway indicate that traffic is slowing — there may be a hazard, congestion, or a queue forming. You should reduce your speed early and check your mirrors in case you need to change lanes or warn drivers behind you.

Question 16: When must you use your dipped headlights during the day?

Whenever it is raining, regardless of intensity.
Only between sunset and sunrise.
In dull weather or when visibility is seriously reduced. (Correct answer)
When driving through a tunnel with good lighting.

Correct answer: In dull weather or when visibility is seriously reduced.

The Highway Code mandates using headlights when visibility is 'seriously reduced,' which is generally defined as being unable to see for more than 100 metres (328 feet). This includes conditions like heavy rain, fog, or dull weather during the daytime.

Question 17: A police officer stops you and asks to see your Certificate of Motor Insurance. You do not have it with you. What is the most likely outcome?

You will be required to produce the document at a police station within 7 days. (Correct answer)
Your vehicle will be impounded immediately.
You will receive an automatic fine and penalty points.
You will be given a verbal warning and allowed to proceed.

Correct answer: You will be required to produce the document at a police station within 7 days.

If you are stopped by the police and cannot produce your insurance certificate, you will typically be issued with a form (a 'producer') requiring you to present the document at a police station of your choice within 7 days.

Question 18: After a road collision, you suspect a casualty has a neck injury. What should you do?

Move them quickly to a safe place
Give them water to drink
Advise them to keep still and avoid moving their head (Correct answer)
Help them out of the vehicle immediately

Correct answer: Advise them to keep still and avoid moving their head

A suspected spinal or neck injury means the casualty should not be moved unless in immediate danger, as movement can cause further damage.

Question 19: Under the Highway Code hierarchy of road users, who bears the greatest responsibility for the safety of others?

All road users equally
Cyclists
Drivers of large vehicles (Correct answer)
Pedestrians

Correct answer: Drivers of large vehicles

The 2022 Highway Code update introduced a hierarchy of road users. Those who can cause the greatest harm (drivers of large vehicles, then car drivers) bear the greatest responsibility to reduce the danger they pose to more vulnerable road users.

Question 20: When driving in the left-hand lane on a three-lane motorway, you see a vehicle broken down on the hard shoulder. What should you do?

Move to the middle lane if it is safe to do so (Correct answer)
Flash your headlights to warn other drivers
Continue in the left lane at the same speed
Stop on the hard shoulder to help

Correct answer: Move to the middle lane if it is safe to do so

If you see a vehicle on the hard shoulder, you should move over to the next lane if it is safe, to give them more space. This follows the principle of creating a safety buffer and is recommended in the Highway Code.

Question 21: You are approaching a horse and rider on a country lane. What is the maximum speed at which you should pass?

The speed is not specified, but you must pass 'wide and slow'
30 mph
10 mph (Correct answer)
20 mph

Correct answer: 10 mph

The Highway Code (Rule 215) is very specific about passing horses. You must slow down to a maximum of 10 mph and allow at least 2 metres of space. Horses are flight animals and can be easily scared by vehicles that are moving too fast or are too close.

Question 22: A roof rack with no load fitted to your vehicle will:

Reduce tyre wear
Have no effect on performance or fuel use
Improve fuel economy by reducing drag underneath
Increase fuel consumption due to extra aerodynamic drag (Correct answer)

Correct answer: Increase fuel consumption due to extra aerodynamic drag

Even an empty roof rack creates additional aerodynamic drag, which forces the engine to work harder and increases fuel consumption.

Question 23: You are driving on a single carriageway road with double white lines in the centre. The line on your side is broken. When is it permissible to cross these lines?

To overtake if you can complete the manoeuvre before the line on your side becomes solid. (Correct answer)
To overtake a vehicle travelling at 15 mph.
To park on the right-hand side of the road.
To turn into a side road on the right.

Correct answer: To overtake if you can complete the manoeuvre before the line on your side becomes solid.

According to the Highway Code (Rule 128), if the white line nearest to you is broken, you may cross the lines to overtake, but only if it is safe and you can complete the manoeuvre before reaching a solid white line on your side. Turning into a side road is also permitted, but overtaking is the more comprehensive correct action described. You must not park on the opposite side of the road, and the speed for overtaking slow-moving vehicles is specified as 10 mph or less.

Question 24: You are driving at night on an unlit road. What should you do if you are dazzled by the headlights of an oncoming vehicle?

Look towards the left-hand edge of the road (Correct answer)
Flash your headlights to signal the other driver
Stare directly at the headlights to judge their distance
Speed up to get past the oncoming vehicle quickly

Correct answer: Look towards the left-hand edge of the road

If dazzled by oncoming headlights, you should slow down or stop if necessary, and avoid looking directly at the lights. Looking towards the left-hand edge of the road helps you maintain your lane position without being blinded.

Question 25: A casualty at a crash scene is in shock. Which of these symptoms would you expect?

High body temperature and fast breathing only
A slow, strong pulse and flushed skin
Dilated pupils and very slow breathing
Rapid, weak pulse and pale, cold, clammy skin (Correct answer)

Correct answer: Rapid, weak pulse and pale, cold, clammy skin

Shock is characterised by a rapid, weak pulse, pale and clammy skin, rapid breathing, and a feeling of faintness.

Question 26: After a collision where another person is injured, what document must you provide to anyone with reasonable grounds to ask for it?

Your driving licence
Your insurance certificate (Correct answer)
Your MOT certificate
Your vehicle logbook (V5C)

Correct answer: Your insurance certificate

You are legally required to produce a valid certificate of insurance to anyone who has reasonable grounds to request it following a collision.

Question 27: What information must you give to other parties involved in a collision?

Your name, address, and vehicle registration number (Correct answer)
The make of your vehicle and your date of birth only
Your full medical history
The name of your employer

Correct answer: Your name, address, and vehicle registration number

UK law requires you to give your name, address, and vehicle registration number to any person who has reasonable grounds to require them after a collision.

Question 28: What is the purpose of emergency refuge areas (ERAs) on smart motorways?

For police speed checks
For drivers to stop and make phone calls
For HGV drivers to take rest breaks
To provide a safe place to stop in an emergency when there is no hard shoulder (Correct answer)

Correct answer: To provide a safe place to stop in an emergency when there is no hard shoulder

Emergency refuge areas are orange-surfaced bays on smart motorways that provide a safe place to stop when the hard shoulder has been removed. They contain an SOS phone connected to Highways England. They are spaced approximately every 1.5 miles.

Question 29: What does a red circle sign containing the number '20' mean?

The maximum speed limit of 20 mph is in force (Correct answer)
A school zone warning — reduce speed to 20 mph when children are present
An advisory speed of 20 mph recommended in poor conditions
A minimum speed of 20 mph must be maintained

Correct answer: The maximum speed limit of 20 mph is in force

A number inside a red circle is a mandatory maximum speed limit — you must not exceed 20 mph in that zone.

Question 30: You are driving past a parked ice cream van on a residential street. What is the main hazard you should be anticipating?

The driver suddenly pulling out without indicating.
Children running out into the road from behind the van. (Correct answer)
The van's refrigeration unit may be leaking.
Litter being dropped from the van's serving window.

Correct answer: Children running out into the road from behind the van.

Ice cream vans attract children, who may be excited and less aware of road safety. They can run into the road unexpectedly, often from behind the van where they are hidden from your view. You must reduce your speed significantly and be prepared to stop.

Question 31: When may you use your vehicle's horn in a built-up area at night?

Only between 6:00 pm and 8:00 am
Never between 11:30 pm and 7:00 am unless a moving vehicle poses a danger (Correct answer)
At any time if you feel it is necessary
Between 11:30 pm and 7:00 am only in an emergency

Correct answer: Never between 11:30 pm and 7:00 am unless a moving vehicle poses a danger

In a built-up area, you must not sound your horn between 11:30 pm and 7:00 am unless another road user poses a danger. The horn should never be used aggressively or as a rebuke.

Question 32: You are driving a car towing a small trailer on a UK motorway. What is the maximum speed at which you are legally permitted to travel?

The same as cars, but you must stay in the left-hand lane
60 mph (Correct answer)
50 mph
70 mph

Correct answer: 60 mph

The national speed limit for a car towing a trailer or caravan on a motorway is 60 mph. This is lower than the 70 mph limit for cars, motorcycles, and car-derived vans not towing a trailer.

Question 33: You are driving in queuing traffic and notice a motorcyclist filtering between the lanes. What is the most appropriate action to take?

Move closer to the vehicle in front to block their path.
Maintain your position and check your mirrors and blind spots before manoeuvring. (Correct answer)
Flash your headlights to let them pass.
Sound your horn to show you are aware of them.

Correct answer: Maintain your position and check your mirrors and blind spots before manoeuvring.

Filtering (or lane splitting) by motorcyclists in slow-moving traffic is not illegal in the UK. Drivers should remain aware of their presence. The correct action is to hold your position and be vigilant, checking mirrors and blind spots frequently, especially before any change in position, as a motorcycle could be alongside you.

Question 34: During a 'show me' question on a practical driving test, the examiner asks you to demonstrate how you would check that the brake lights are working. What is the correct procedure?

Operate the brake pedal and use reflections in windows or ask someone to help check. (Correct answer)
Switch on the ignition, turn on the hazard lights, and walk around the car.
Operate the brake pedal and check for a warning light on the dashboard.
Pump the brake pedal several times to see if the pressure feels correct.

Correct answer: Operate the brake pedal and use reflections in windows or ask someone to help check.

The correct way to check the brake lights is to operate the brake pedal while making use of reflections in windows, garage doors, or other vehicles, or by asking another person to stand at the rear of the vehicle to confirm they are lit.

Question 35: You are approaching a bend and see a warning sign for ice. What should you do?

Maintain your current speed as modern tyres handle ice well
Reduce speed well before the bend and avoid harsh braking, steering, or acceleration (Correct answer)
Brake firmly before entering the bend and accelerate through it
Use your handbrake to slow down on the bend

Correct answer: Reduce speed well before the bend and avoid harsh braking, steering, or acceleration

When there is ice, you should reduce speed well in advance using engine braking and gentle braking. Any sudden inputs — braking, accelerating, or steering — on ice can cause a loss of control. Slow down before the bend, not during it.

Question 36: When overtaking a cyclist on a road with a 30 mph speed limit, what is the minimum distance you should leave?

1.0 metre (approx 3 feet)
1.5 metres (approx 5 feet) (Correct answer)
As much room as you would give a motorcycle
The width of your car door

Correct answer: 1.5 metres (approx 5 feet)

The Highway Code (Rule 163) was updated to state that drivers should leave at least 1.5 metres of space when overtaking cyclists at speeds up to 30 mph, and more space at higher speeds. This is to ensure the safety of the cyclist, who may need to swerve to avoid potholes or other hazards.

Question 37: You are about to drive a fully loaded estate car. The load fills the boot up to the rear window. What should you adjust?

The handbrake cable tension
The gear ratios
The radio aerial
The headlights to compensate for the change in vehicle attitude (Correct answer)

Correct answer: The headlights to compensate for the change in vehicle attitude

A heavy boot load causes the front of the vehicle to rise, angling the headlights upward and dazzling oncoming drivers, so headlight aim must be adjusted.

Question 38: How does an unsecured load in the back of a van affect braking?

It only affects the ride comfort
It can shift forward on braking, increasing stopping distance and risk of injury (Correct answer)
It improves traction and shortens stopping distance
It has no effect on braking distance

Correct answer: It can shift forward on braking, increasing stopping distance and risk of injury

An unsecured load can slide forward under heavy braking, injuring occupants, damaging the vehicle, and affecting the driver's ability to stop safely.

Question 39: What is the key difference between a Toucan crossing and a Puffin crossing?

Puffin crossings have a flashing amber light phase, whereas Toucan crossings do not.
Toucan crossings allow both pedestrians and cyclists to cross, while Puffin crossings are for pedestrians only. (Correct answer)
Toucan crossings are for pedestrians only, while Puffin crossings are for pedestrians and cyclists.
Puffin crossings have pedestrian signals on the opposite side of the road.

Correct answer: Toucan crossings allow both pedestrians and cyclists to cross, while Puffin crossings are for pedestrians only.

The name 'Toucan' is a play on 'two can' cross, meaning both pedestrians and cyclists can use the crossing without cyclists having to dismount. Puffin (Pedestrian User-Friendly Intelligent) crossings are for pedestrians only and have sensors to detect when people are waiting or crossing.

Question 40: You are waiting at a junction and see a vehicle with a flashing green beacon. What does this indicate?

An ambulance on a non-emergency call
A vehicle carrying hazardous materials
A recovery vehicle
A doctor on an emergency call (Correct answer)

Correct answer: A doctor on an emergency call

A flashing green beacon on a vehicle indicates a doctor on an emergency call. While they do not have the same legal exemptions as blue-light emergency vehicles, you should treat them with consideration and allow them to pass where safe.

Question 41: You are driving along a residential road with cars parked on the left-hand side. A ball bounces out into the road ahead. What is the most significant potential hazard you should be prepared for?

A vehicle door opening suddenly from a parked car.
A child running out to retrieve the ball. (Correct answer)
An oncoming vehicle swerving to avoid the ball.
The ball damaging your car's paintwork.

Correct answer: A child running out to retrieve the ball.

A ball bouncing into the road is a classic sign that a child may follow it without checking for traffic. You must anticipate this and be ready to stop immediately. While other hazards exist, a child running into the road is the most immediate and serious danger.

Question 42: While driving, you approach a sign with a red triangle pointing downwards. What is the primary instruction of this sign?

Warning of a hazard ahead
Give way to traffic on the major road (Correct answer)
Information about a tourist attraction
Stop, even if the road is clear

Correct answer: Give way to traffic on the major road

The inverted red triangle is the 'Give Way' sign. You must give way to traffic on the road you are joining. Unlike other triangular signs which warn of a potential hazard, this one gives a direct order to yield priority.

Question 43: You have just bought a brand-new car. When will it need its first MOT test?

On the first anniversary of its registration.
When the manufacturer's warranty expires.
After it has been driven 12,000 miles.
On the third anniversary of its registration. (Correct answer)

Correct answer: On the third anniversary of its registration.

A new car in the UK does not require an MOT test until the third anniversary of its first registration date. After this, it must be tested annually.

Question 44: Which of the following is NOT permitted to use a UK motorway?

A motorcycle with a 150cc engine.
A learner driver accompanied by an approved driving instructor in a dual-control car.
A double-decker bus.
A cyclist. (Correct answer)

Correct answer: A cyclist.

Motorways MUST NOT be used by certain classes of road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, horse riders, and riders of motorcycles under 50 cc. Since June 2018, learner drivers can drive on motorways if accompanied by an approved instructor in a suitable car.

Question 45: You are driving on a single carriageway road and see a circular white sign with a single black diagonal stripe through it. What does this sign mean?

No entry for vehicular traffic
National speed limit applies (Correct answer)
End of motorway
Waiting restrictions apply

Correct answer: National speed limit applies

A white circular sign with a single black diagonal stripe indicates that the national speed limit applies. For a car on a single carriageway, this is 60 mph. On a dual carriageway or motorway, it's 70 mph.

Question 46: You will not be using your car for several months and plan to keep it in your garage. To avoid paying for vehicle tax and insurance, what must you officially do?

Return the number plates to the DVLA.
Cancel your direct debits for tax and insurance.
Inform your local council.
Make a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN) to the DVLA. (Correct answer)

Correct answer: Make a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN) to the DVLA.

To legally keep an untaxed and uninsured vehicle off a public road, you must make a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN) to the DVLA. This declares that the vehicle is not in use.

Question 47: You approach an unmarked crossroads where another vehicle is approaching from the right. Who has priority?

The vehicle that arrived at the junction first.
No one has automatic priority. (Correct answer)
The vehicle approaching from the right.
You have priority as you are on their left.

Correct answer: No one has automatic priority.

The Highway Code (Rule 146) states that at an unmarked crossroads, no driver has priority. You should slow down, be prepared to stop, and only proceed when it is safe, taking into account the speed and position of other road users.

Question 48: A casualty is bleeding heavily from an arm wound. What is the most effective immediate action?

Pour cold water over the wound
Apply a tourniquet above the wound
Elevate the arm and apply firm pressure (Correct answer)
Give the casualty a warm drink

Correct answer: Elevate the arm and apply firm pressure

Elevating the injured limb and applying firm direct pressure is the recommended first aid for controlling severe bleeding.

Question 49: You are approaching a traffic-calming measure and see a solid blue circular sign with a white arrow pointing left. What must you do?

Give way to traffic from the left
Keep to the left of the sign (Correct answer)
Keep to the right of the sign
Turn left at the next junction

Correct answer: Keep to the left of the sign

A blue circular sign gives a mandatory instruction. An arrow pointing down and to the left, often used on traffic islands or at the start of a dual carriageway, means you must keep to the left of the sign.

Question 50: You notice a vehicle behind you is following very closely. What is the safest response?

Brake sharply to warn them
Speed up to create a gap behind you
Switch on your rear fog lights
Increase the distance between you and the vehicle in front (Correct answer)

Correct answer: Increase the distance between you and the vehicle in front

If a vehicle is tailgating you, the safest response is to increase the gap between you and the vehicle in front. This gives you more time to brake gently if needed, reducing the risk of the tailgater hitting you from behind.

Question 51: What is the legal minimum tread depth for car tyres in the UK?

2.0 mm across the full width of the tread
1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tread (Correct answer)
1.0 mm across the central three-quarters of the tread
1.6 mm across the full width of the tread

Correct answer: 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tread

The legal minimum tread depth for car tyres in the UK is 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tread width, around the entire circumference. Driving with tyres below this is an offence carrying a fine and penalty points per tyre.
