Angola Driving Code Theory study plan

Angola Driving Code Theory · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Road signs, signals and markings

  • Classify every Angolan road sign into its shape/colour family (danger, regulation, information, priority) and state the driver action each demands

  • Recall the meaning of priority signs (stop, give way, priority road) and explain how each overrides general right-of-way rules

  • Read traffic-light phases including flashing amber and arrow signals, and describe the correct response to each

  • Interpret common road markings (continuous and broken lines, stop lines, pedestrian crossings, hatched areas) and their legal effect

Your checkpoint

A one-page self-made reference sheet grouping 40+ signs and markings by family with the required driver action beside each, scored at 80%+ on a self-quiz

Week 2

Road signs, signals and markings & Traffic rules and priority (right of way)

  • Apply the default right-of-way rule (yield to the right at unmarked junctions) to at least 15 written junction scenarios

  • Sequence the correct order of movement at junctions controlled by signs, lights, roundabouts and traffic officers

  • Explain how to enter, circulate and exit a roundabout, including signalling and lane choice

  • Describe overtaking rules: when it is permitted, when it is forbidden, and how to signal and complete a pass safely

Your checkpoint

A written set of 20 junction and priority scenarios, each answered with a justified order of movement, reviewed against the rule set

Week 3

Traffic rules and priority (right of way)

  • State the rules for pedestrian crossings, giving way to pedestrians and to emergency vehicles

  • Describe speed-limit rules by road type and zone, and identify where limits drop automatically

  • Explain stopping, parking and waiting restrictions and where they apply

  • Apply rules for level crossings, buses, and following distance in traffic

Your checkpoint

A 15-question self-test on priority and traffic rules completed closed-book with a written correction note for every wrong answer

Week 4

Road safety and defensive driving

  • Identify the main causes of collisions and match each to a preventive defensive-driving habit

  • Apply the two-second (and wet-road extended) following-distance rule and demonstrate the calculation

  • Describe hazard perception techniques: scanning, mirror use, blind spots, and anticipating other road users

  • Explain the effects of speed, weather, night driving and road surface on stopping distance

Your checkpoint

A hazard-perception log of 10 written road scenarios with the hazard identified, the anticipated risk and the defensive action chosen

Week 5

Vehicle knowledge, maintenance and safety equipment & Driver conduct, alcohol, drugs and fatigue

  • List the pre-journey vehicle checks (tyres, brakes, lights, fluids, mirrors) and the fault each check detects

  • Explain the purpose and correct use of seat belts, child restraints, helmets and warning triangles

  • Describe how alcohol, drugs and medicines impair driving and state the Angolan legal alcohol limit and its penalties

  • Recognise the signs of driver fatigue and list the countermeasures (rest breaks, avoiding long night drives)

Your checkpoint

A completed pre-journey checklist card plus a written summary of alcohol, drug and fatigue rules with the legal limit and consequences stated

Week 6

Accidents, first aid and emergency procedures & Traffic law, penalties and documentation

  • Sequence the correct actions at an accident scene: protect the site, warn traffic, call emergency services, avoid further danger

  • Demonstrate the basic first-aid priorities (airway, breathing, bleeding, shock) and when not to move an injured person

  • State the legal duties of a driver involved in an accident (stopping, giving details, reporting)

  • List the documents a driver must carry and the penalties for driving without licence, insurance or vehicle inspection

Your checkpoint

A written accident-response procedure card covering scene safety, emergency call, first aid and legal reporting steps, checked for completeness

Week 7

Traffic law, penalties and documentation & Vehicle categories, licensing and environmental awareness

  • Match vehicle categories to the licence class required and the age/experience conditions attached

  • Explain the point/penalty system, licence suspension and disqualification consequences for common offences

  • Describe environmental rules and good practice: emissions, noise, waste oil disposal, economical driving

  • Identify the documentation and inspection requirements for keeping a vehicle legally on the road

Your checkpoint

A one-page licence-and-penalty matrix mapping vehicle category to licence class, key offences and their penalties, verified against the rule set

Week 8

Road signs, signals and markings & Traffic rules and priority (right of way) & Road safety and defensive driving & Vehicle knowledge, maintenance and safety equipment & Driver conduct, alcohol, drugs and fatigue & Accidents, first aid and emergency procedures & Traffic law, penalties and documentation & Vehicle categories, licensing and environmental awareness

  • Complete full-length timed mock exams under exam conditions and record the score for each attempt

  • Identify the two weakest domains from mock results and re-drill them with targeted questions

  • Review every missed question and write the correct rule beside it

  • Confirm readiness by scoring consistently above the pass threshold across at least three mocks

Your checkpoint

Three timed mock exam score sheets with a written review of every error and a final go/no-go readiness statement

Milestones

Week 2: Score 80%+ on a closed-book quiz covering signs, signals, markings and junction priority

Week 4: Score 75%+ on a mixed quiz of domains 1-3 and submit the hazard-perception log

Week 6: Score 75%+ on a mixed quiz of domains 4-7 and complete the accident-response card

Week 8: Score above the pass threshold on three consecutive timed full mock exams
