Quick facts
5 more real practice questions
1. A warning sign shows the road narrowing ahead. How should you respond?
- Move to the centre of the road and hold your line
- Speed up to clear the narrow section quickly
- Slow down and be prepared for less room and oncoming traffic closer to you ✓
- Stop and wait until no other vehicles are near
Where the road narrows, reduce speed and be ready to adjust your position.
2. Which headlight setting should you use in thick fog?
- High beam for maximum distance
- Parking lights only
- Dipped (low beam) headlights ✓
- No lights, to reduce reflections
High beams reflect off fog and reduce vision - use dipped headlights (and fog lights if fitted).
3. How can prescription or pharmacy medicines affect your driving?
- They only affect driving if mixed with alcohol
- Some cause drowsiness or slow reactions - check the label or ask your doctor before driving ✓
- Legal medicines can never impair driving
- They affect passengers but not drivers
Many medicines impair driving - check warnings and ask a doctor or pharmacist if unsure.
4. A blue sign with a large white H tells you:
- A hotel offers parking ahead
- A helicopter landing zone is on the road
- A hospital is nearby - expect pedestrians and emergency vehicles ✓
- Heavy vehicles must exit here
The H sign marks a hospital - take extra care and keep entrances clear.
5. A yellow diamond sign shows two arrows joining into one. What does it warn?
- Oncoming traffic must stop for you
- A divided road begins ahead
- Two lanes or streams of traffic merge ahead - be ready to adjust speed and merge in turn ✓
- A passing lane begins ahead
The merge sign warns that traffic joins ahead, so merge courteously like a zip.
