32 cards. Read the term and the definition here. The deck at the top of this page is optional.

Right-hand priority rule

At an uncontrolled intersection, you must yield to vehicles approaching from your right. This rule applies unless signs or signals indicate otherwise.

Two-second rule

Maintain at least a two-second gap behind the vehicle ahead in good conditions. In rain or at night, double the gap to four seconds.

Default urban speed limit

In built-up areas (cities, towns, villages), the default speed limit is 60 km/h unless signs indicate a different limit.

Warning sign shape

Warning signs are triangular with a red border and white background. They alert drivers to hazards ahead, such as curves or pedestrian crossings.

Continuous white line

A continuous white line along the center of the road means no crossing or overtaking. You must stay in your lane.

Flashing red light

A flashing red traffic light requires you to stop and yield to cross traffic before proceeding. Treat it like a stop sign.

Overtaking prohibition locations

Overtaking is prohibited at pedestrian crossings, on bridges, in tunnels, at railway crossings, and where visibility is restricted.

Tire tread depth minimum

Tires must have a tread depth of at least 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tread and around the entire circumference.

Accident scene first action

First ensure your own safety: park safely, turn on hazard lights, and put on a reflective vest before exiting to help others.

Warning triangle placement

Place a warning triangle at least 50 meters behind the accident on a straight road, or further if visibility is poor.

Legal blood alcohol limit

The legal blood alcohol limit for drivers is typically 0.05% (or lower for novice drivers). Driving under the influence is strictly prohibited.

Eco-driving acceleration

Smooth acceleration reduces fuel consumption and emissions. Avoid sudden starts and stops to drive more efficiently.

Roundabout priority

At a roundabout, yield to traffic already on the roundabout unless signs indicate otherwise. Enter only when safe.

Stop line meaning

A stop line is a solid white line across the lane. You must stop before it at a stop sign or red light.

Handheld phone use

Using a handheld mobile phone while driving is illegal. Use hands-free devices only if permitted by law.

Fog driving precautions

In fog, reduce speed, increase following distance, and use fog lights only when visibility is seriously reduced.

Pedestrian crossing rules

At a pedestrian crossing, drivers must yield to pedestrians on the crossing or about to enter it. Overtaking is prohibited.

Yellow box junction

A yellow box junction prohibits entering unless your exit is clear, except when turning right and waiting for a gap.

Turning left priority

When turning left, yield to oncoming traffic going straight or turning right. Only proceed when the way is clear.

Safe following distance

A safe following distance increases with speed. At 90 km/h, a two-second gap is about 50 meters.

Mandatory safety equipment

A valid first-aid kit, fire extinguisher, warning triangle, and reflective vest are mandatory safety equipment in many jurisdictions.

CPR at accident scene

If an injured person is not breathing, start CPR if trained and continue until help arrives. Check responsiveness and breathing first.

Required documents while driving

Drivers must carry a valid driving license, vehicle registration, proof of insurance, and identification at all times.

Hazard perception scanning

Scan the road ahead and check mirrors regularly to anticipate hazards such as pedestrians, animals, or vehicles entering the road.

Traffic controller signals

A traffic controller's signals override traffic lights and road signs. A raised arm means stop for all directions.

Overtaking procedure

Before overtaking, ensure the lane ahead is clear, no one is overtaking you, and you can complete the maneuver without impeding others.

Motorway speed limit

On motorways, the default speed limit is 110 km/h unless posted otherwise. Outside built-up areas, it is 90 km/h.

Tire pressure check

Check tire pressure when tires are cold. Incorrect pressure affects handling, fuel consumption, and tire wear.

Moving injured persons

Do not move an injured person unless there is immediate danger (e.g., fire). Moving them can worsen spinal injuries.

Accident reporting duty

After an accident involving injury or significant damage, you must stop, provide assistance, and report to the police.

Cruise control benefit

Use cruise control on highways to maintain constant speed and reduce fuel consumption.

Directional arrow markings

Directional arrows on the road indicate permitted lane movements. Drivers must follow the arrow for their lane.
