DVSA Driving Theory Test — Questions and Answers

Question 1: Which of these documents is primarily used to prove who is the registered keeper of a vehicle, but not necessarily the legal owner?

MOT Certificate (VT20)
Driving Licence
Certificate of Motor Insurance
V5C Registration Certificate (Log Book) (Correct answer)

Correct answer: V5C Registration Certificate (Log Book)

The V5C Registration Certificate, often called the log book, is issued by the DVLA and records the details of the vehicle and its registered keeper. It is important to note that the registered keeper is not always the legal owner.

Question 2: A casualty at a crash scene is in shock. Which of these symptoms would you expect?

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

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 3: What does the 'national speed limit applies' sign look like?

A white rectangular sign showing '70 mph'
A white circle with a red border and a diagonal black bar (Correct answer)
A blue circle with '70' written in white inside
A yellow triangle with a speed camera symbol

Correct answer: A white circle with a red border and a diagonal black bar

The national speed limit sign is a white circle with a red border and a single diagonal black bar — the limit itself depends on the road type and vehicle.

Question 4: What is the purpose of emergency refuge areas (ERAs) on smart motorways?

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

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 5: 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 6: You must report a collision to the police within how many days if no officer was present?

72 hours
14 days
5 days (Correct answer)
24 hours

Correct answer: 5 days

Under UK law, if a collision involves injury to another person and no police officer is at the scene, you must report it to a police station within 24 hours — but the legal maximum is 5 days.

Question 7: 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)
Puffin crossings have pedestrian signals on the opposite side of the road.
Toucan crossings are for pedestrians only, while Puffin crossings are for pedestrians and cyclists.

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 8: How should you perform CPR chest compressions on an adult casualty?

5 compressions then 2 breaths
10 compressions then 1 breath
15 compressions then 1 breath
30 compressions then 2 breaths (Correct answer)

Correct answer: 30 compressions then 2 breaths

Current first aid guidelines recommend 30 chest compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths when performing CPR on an adult.

Question 9: What is the national speed limit for a car on a single carriageway?

70 mph
80 mph
50 mph
60 mph (Correct answer)

Correct answer: 60 mph

The national speed limit for cars on a single carriageway is 60 mph. On dual carriageways and motorways, the national speed limit for cars is 70 mph.

Question 10: What does a sign showing a white diagonal arrow on a blue circular background mean?

A one-way street begins ahead
The road curves in the direction of the arrow
A mandatory direction — you must pass to the side indicated (Correct answer)
Overtaking is recommended on the side shown

Correct answer: A mandatory direction — you must pass to the side indicated

A blue circle with a white directional arrow gives a mandatory instruction — drivers must pass the obstruction on the indicated side.

Question 11: How does smooth, anticipatory driving reduce environmental impact compared to aggressive driving?

It increases CO2 output because the engine runs longer
It only reduces noise pollution, not exhaust emissions
It reduces both fuel consumption and exhaust emissions by minimising unnecessary acceleration and braking (Correct answer)
It makes no difference to the environment

Correct answer: It reduces both fuel consumption and exhaust emissions by minimising unnecessary acceleration and braking

Smooth, planned driving reduces the number and severity of acceleration and braking events, directly lowering fuel burn and harmful exhaust emissions.

Question 12: What does a triangular sign containing an exclamation mark (!) indicate?

Road works beginning in 200 metres
A pedestrian crossing is ahead
A general hazard that is not covered by a specific sign (Correct answer)
A speed camera is ahead

Correct answer: A general hazard that is not covered by a specific sign

An exclamation mark in a red triangle is a general warning sign indicating an unspecified hazard ahead.

Question 13: What effect does carrying unnecessary weight in your vehicle have?

It has no measurable effect on a modern car
It improves stability and fuel economy
It only affects handling, not fuel use
It increases fuel consumption and tyre wear (Correct answer)

Correct answer: It increases fuel consumption and tyre wear

Every extra kilogram the engine must move requires more fuel, so removing unnecessary items from the boot reduces running costs.

Question 14: You are waiting at a junction and see a vehicle with a flashing green beacon. What does this indicate?

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

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 15: 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 park on the right-hand side of the road.
To turn into a side road on the right.
To overtake a vehicle travelling at 15 mph.

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 16: 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)
The road surface being more worn on the bend.
Pedestrians walking on the right, with their back to you.
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 17: You are driving on a 'smart motorway' and see a red 'X' displayed on the overhead gantry above your lane. What does this mean?

You should stop and wait for further instructions.
You should move into another open lane as soon as it is safe to do so. (Correct answer)
The national speed limit applies to this lane.
A temporary speed limit is in force for this lane.

Correct answer: You should move into another open lane as soon as it is safe to do so.

A red 'X' shown on an overhead gantry on a motorway indicates that the lane is closed. You MUST NOT drive in a lane that is closed by a red 'X'. You should move into an open lane safely and promptly. Ignoring this sign is dangerous and illegal.

Question 18: 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?

Your vehicle will be impounded immediately.
You will be required to produce the document at a police station within 7 days. (Correct answer)
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 19: What should you do if you break down on a smart motorway with no hard shoulder?

Stay in the live lane and wait for help
Stand behind your vehicle to warn other drivers
Try to reach an emergency refuge area and call for help using the SOS phone (Correct answer)
Walk along the motorway to the next junction

Correct answer: Try to reach an emergency refuge area and call for help using the SOS phone

If you break down on a smart motorway without a hard shoulder, try to reach an emergency refuge area (ERA). If you cannot, move to the left-hand verge if possible, switch on your hazard lights, and call 999. Stay behind the crash barrier if there is one.

Question 20: You are driving at night on an unlit road. What should you do if you are dazzled by the headlights of an oncoming vehicle?

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

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

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

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

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

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 23: When are you permitted to use the hard shoulder on a motorway for driving?

When directed to by overhead gantry signs on a smart motorway (Correct answer)
Whenever the motorway is congested
During peak traffic hours
When overtaking a slow-moving vehicle

Correct answer: When directed to by overhead gantry signs on a smart motorway

On certain smart motorways (All Lane Running or controlled motorways), the hard shoulder may be opened as a running lane during busy periods. This is indicated by speed limit signs displayed above the hard shoulder on overhead gantries. You must only use it when signs indicate it is open.

Question 24: On a smart motorway, what does a speed limit sign inside a red circle on a gantry mean compared to one without a red circle?

Red circle means mandatory and enforceable, no circle means advisory (Correct answer)
Both are mandatory
Neither is enforceable
Red circle means advisory only, no circle means mandatory

Correct answer: Red circle means mandatory and enforceable, no circle means advisory

A speed limit displayed in a red circle on a gantry is a mandatory, legally enforceable speed limit. A speed limit displayed without a red circle is advisory — it is recommended but not legally enforceable. However, you should still follow advisory limits as they indicate a hazard.

Question 25: 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
Stop, even if the road is clear
Give way to traffic on the major road (Correct answer)
Information about a tourist attraction

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 26: You are driving in heavy rain and your vehicle begins to aquaplane. What should you do?

Accelerate to drive through the water
Brake hard to regain grip
Ease off the accelerator and avoid braking until you regain grip (Correct answer)
Steer sharply to the left

Correct answer: Ease off the accelerator and avoid braking until you regain grip

Aquaplaning occurs when water builds up under the tyres faster than the tread can disperse it, causing a loss of contact with the road. You should ease off the accelerator smoothly and avoid braking or steering until the tyres regain grip.

Question 27: When overtaking a cyclist on a road with a 30 mph speed limit, what is the minimum distance you should leave?

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

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

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

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 29: What colour are the reflective road studs (cat's eyes) that mark the central reservation of a motorway?

Amber (Correct answer)
Red
Green
White

Correct answer: Amber

Amber cat's eyes mark the central reservation on a motorway, warning drivers they are near the central barrier.

Question 30: You are approaching a traffic-calming measure and see a solid blue circular sign with a white arrow pointing left. What must you do?

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

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 31: A driver is in a vehicle that has skidded into a ditch. They are conscious and say their back hurts. What should you do?

Leave them in the vehicle and call the emergency services (Correct answer)
Pull them out of the vehicle immediately
Give them a painkiller from your first aid kit
Get them to walk around to check for injury

Correct answer: Leave them in the vehicle and call the emergency services

Back pain after an impact could indicate a spinal injury, so the safest course is to leave the casualty in place and get emergency services there quickly.

Question 32: You are driving on a country road at 50 mph. How much distance should you allow for thinking distance alone?

12 metres (40 feet)
15 metres (50 feet) (Correct answer)
9 metres (30 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 33: Which of these is a legal requirement for a 'Class 3' powered mobility scooter to be used on the road?

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

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 34: 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.
Make a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN) to the DVLA. (Correct answer)
Inform your local council.
Cancel your direct debits for tax and insurance.

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

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

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

20 mph
The speed is not specified, but you must pass 'wide and slow'
10 mph (Correct answer)
30 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 37: You are driving past a parked ice cream van on a residential street. What is the main hazard you should be anticipating?

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

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 38: You arrive at a petrol station fire. What should you do with your mobile phone?

Keep it on to call for help from the pump
Switch it off before approaching the area (Correct answer)
Use it to film the fire for evidence
Use it freely as phones cannot ignite fuel

Correct answer: Switch it off before approaching the area

Mobile phones should be switched off at petrol stations because there is a small risk that the signal could ignite fuel vapour.

Question 39: You see a circular blue sign with the number '30' in white. What does this sign mean?

End of the 30 mph speed restriction.
Minimum speed limit of 30 mph. (Correct answer)
Maximum speed limit of 30 mph.
Recommended speed of 30 mph.

Correct answer: Minimum speed limit of 30 mph.

A circular sign with a blue background indicates a mandatory instruction. In this case, it signifies a minimum speed limit. You must not drive slower than the speed indicated, unless it is unsafe to do so. Maximum speed limits are shown in a red circle.

Question 40: When driving in wet conditions, what is the minimum time gap you should leave between your vehicle and the one in front?

A one-second gap
A two-second gap
A four-second gap (Correct answer)
A three-second gap

Correct answer: A four-second gap

The Highway Code advises that in wet weather, you should double the normal two-second gap to at least a four-second gap. This is because your vehicle will take longer to stop on a wet surface, and the increased distance provides a safer stopping margin.

Question 41: You are approaching a zebra crossing where a pedestrian is waiting to cross. Which of the following actions is the correct one to take?

Sound your horn to let them know it is not safe to cross.
Speed up to pass the crossing before they decide to step out.
Continue at the same speed as they have not stepped onto the crossing.
Slow down and prepare to stop if they step onto the crossing. (Correct answer)

Correct answer: Slow down and prepare to stop if they step onto the crossing.

According to the Highway Code, you must give way when a pedestrian has moved onto a zebra crossing. As a driver, you should anticipate that a waiting pedestrian will cross, so you must slow down and be prepared to stop to allow them to do so safely.

Question 42: You have just bought a brand-new car. When will it need its first MOT test?

After it has been driven 12,000 miles.
On the first anniversary of its registration.
When the manufacturer's warranty expires.
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 43: What is the minimum distance you should leave when overtaking a cyclist?

At least 1.0 metre
At least 0.5 metres
At least 1.5 metres (Correct answer)
At least 2.0 metres

Correct answer: At least 1.5 metres

The Highway Code (updated 2022) states that when overtaking a cyclist at speeds of up to 30 mph, you should leave at least 1.5 metres of space. At higher speeds, you should leave even more room.

Question 44: What effect does tiredness have on your driving ability?

It improves concentration as you try harder to focus
It only affects you on long motorway journeys
It has no effect if you keep the window open
It significantly increases your reaction time and impairs judgement (Correct answer)

Correct answer: It significantly increases your reaction time and impairs judgement

Tiredness significantly increases reaction times, impairs judgement, and can cause microsleeps where you briefly lose consciousness. It is a major factor in road collisions. The only effective countermeasure is to stop and rest.

Question 45: What does a catalytic converter do in a vehicle's exhaust system?

It increases engine power output
It reduces fuel consumption by recycling exhaust gases
It filters particulate matter from diesel engines only
It reduces harmful exhaust emissions by converting toxic gases into less harmful substances (Correct answer)

Correct answer: It reduces harmful exhaust emissions by converting toxic gases into less harmful substances

A catalytic converter uses chemical reactions to convert harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons into less harmful carbon dioxide and water.

Question 46: What is the legal minimum tread depth for car tyres in the UK?

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

Question 47: What shape are warning signs used on UK roads?

Circular with a red border
Square with a blue border
Triangular with a red border (Correct answer)
Rectangular with a green border

Correct answer: Triangular with a red border

Warning signs in the UK are triangular with a red border, alerting drivers to hazards ahead.

Question 48: When must you use dipped headlights?

Whenever you switch on any lights
Only when it is completely dark
When visibility is seriously reduced, and at night on unlit roads (Correct answer)
Only on motorways at night

Correct answer: When visibility is seriously reduced, and at night on unlit roads

You must use dipped headlights when visibility is seriously reduced (generally when you cannot see for more than 100 metres) and at night on unlit roads. You should also use them at dusk and dawn.

Question 49: You are on a one-way street and see a blue sign for a contraflow bus lane. What does this indicate?

You must move into the bus lane immediately.
Buses may be travelling in the opposite direction to you. (Correct answer)
The one-way street is about to become a two-way street for all traffic.
You are approaching a bus-only roundabout.

Correct answer: Buses may be travelling in the opposite direction to you.

A contraflow bus lane on a one-way street is a lane reserved for buses (and sometimes other authorised vehicles) travelling in the opposite direction to the main flow of traffic. Drivers should be alert for buses approaching from the 'wrong' way in this lane.

Question 50: At a 'Stop' sign, what must you do before proceeding?

Flash your headlights and move forward cautiously
Slow down and give way only if traffic is approaching
Stop completely before the line, then proceed when safe (Correct answer)
Sound your horn to warn other road users

Correct answer: Stop completely before the line, then proceed when safe

A 'Stop' sign legally requires you to come to a complete stop at the line before checking it is safe to proceed.

Question 51: How does an incorrectly inflated tyre affect fuel consumption?

Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance and raise fuel consumption (Correct answer)
Tyre pressure only affects braking, not fuel use
Over-inflated tyres always increase fuel consumption
It has no effect on fuel consumption

Correct answer: Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance and raise fuel consumption

Under-inflated tyres have a larger contact patch and higher rolling resistance, forcing the engine to work harder and burn more fuel.
