Bulgaria Theory Test D study plan
Bulgaria Theory Test D · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 7 hours per week
Traffic rules and road signs
Classify every Bulgarian road sign by shape, colour and group (warning, priority, prohibition, mandatory, information), writing a one-line meaning for each in your own words.
State the default national speed limits for built-up areas, outside built-up areas, motorways and expressways, and list the conditions that lower them.
Explain right-of-way at unmarked junctions, roundabouts and priority-road endings, and solve 20 written give-way scenarios without errors on more than two.
Recite the rules on overtaking, lane discipline and safe following distance, including the two-second rule and its wet-road variant.
Your checkpoint
A hand-drawn or printed sign-and-rule summary sheet covering all sign groups plus a 30-question self-test scored at 80% or better.
Traffic rules and road signs & Safe driving and hazard perception
Apply junction, traffic-light and pedestrian-crossing rules to 40 written scenarios, justifying each answer with the specific rule that decides it.
Identify the sequence of hazard-perception cues (roadside activity, brake lights ahead, sightline loss on bends) in 15 described situations and rank each by risk.
Describe how speed, surface, weather and visibility change stopping distance, and compute stopping distance for three given speeds.
List the situations where overtaking is prohibited and the places where stopping and parking are banned.
Your checkpoint
A scored 50-question mixed test on traffic rules and hazard perception, with every wrong answer rewritten as a corrected rule statement.
Road markings and traffic signals & Traffic rules and road signs
Distinguish longitudinal, transverse and special road markings by colour and pattern, and match each to the rule it enforces.
Interpret every traffic-light combination including flashing amber, green arrow, tram signals and lane-control signals.
Explain how signals from traffic controllers override signs, markings and lights, and list the priority order of instructions.
Resolve 25 written conflicts between a sign, a marking and a light, choosing the controlling instruction each time.
Your checkpoint
A one-page decision table of markings and signals plus a 25-item conflict-resolution quiz scored at 90% or better.
Vehicle categories, documentation and load regulations & Vehicle construction, maintenance and technical checks
Match each driving-licence category to the vehicles it covers and state the age and medical conditions attached to each.
List the documents a driver must carry, the validity periods for licences and insurance, and the consequences of driving without them.
Compute permissible load from kerb weight, gross vehicle weight and axle limits, and state the rules on projecting loads, roof racks and trailers.
Name the components checked in a pre-drive inspection and the warning signs of brake, tyre, steering and lighting faults.
Your checkpoint
A completed vehicle-and-documents checklist plus 20 load-calculation and technical-fault questions answered correctly.
Driver fitness, alcohol, drugs and fatigue & First aid and emergency behaviour
State the legal alcohol limits for novice and experienced drivers and describe how alcohol, drugs and medicines degrade reaction time and judgement.
Recognise the signs of fatigue and list the rest-break rule you will apply on long drives, including the recommended maximum continuous driving time.
Sequence the first-aid steps at a crash scene: securing the site, alerting emergency services, triage and the recovery position.
Demonstrate on a manikin or describe step by step how to control severe bleeding, treat burns and handle a suspected spinal injury.
Your checkpoint
A written emergency action card (site safety, call sequence, first-aid steps) plus a 20-question fitness-and-first-aid test scored at 85% or better.
Passenger transport, working time and tachograph rules & Vehicle categories, documentation and load regulations
Explain tachograph record types, the daily and weekly driving limits, mandatory breaks and daily rest periods for passenger transport.
Outline the working-time rules that apply to mobile workers and how they interact with tachograph limits.
List the safety duties of a passenger-carrying driver: boarding and alighting, securing luggage, seat belts and behaviour management.
Identify which documents and records must be kept available for inspection during a passenger-carrying journey.
Your checkpoint
A worked weekly tachograph schedule for a sample driver, checked against all driving, break and rest limits, plus a 15-question test.
Environmental protection and fuel-efficient driving & Safe driving and hazard perception
Apply eco-driving techniques (smooth acceleration, early gear changes, anticipation, correct tyre pressure) and estimate the fuel saving each gives.
Explain how vehicle choice, maintenance and load affect emissions and fuel consumption.
Analyse 15 hazard-perception scenarios involving vulnerable road users, night driving and adverse weather, and state the defensive action for each.
Describe how fatigue, distraction and speed interact with hazard perception in real crash sequences.
Your checkpoint
A personal eco-driving and hazard-anticipation plan plus a 30-question combined test on domains 5 and 9 scored at 85% or better.

Sit three full-length mock exams under timed conditions and record the score and the domain of every missed question.
Re-study only the domains where mock scores fall below 85%, using your own summary sheets.
Rehearse the first-aid and emergency sequence and the tachograph limits from memory until recall is error-free.
Confirm exam-day logistics: required documents, identification and the test format.
Your checkpoint
Three timed mock exams with a final score of 90% or better on the last attempt and a written list of remaining weak points.
Milestones
Week 2: Score at least 80% on a 50-question test drawn only from domains 1 and 5, and explain every missed answer aloud without notes.
Week 4: Score at least 85% on a 40-question test covering domains 1, 2, 3 and 6, and complete the vehicle-and-documents checklist from memory.
Week 6: Score at least 85% on a 40-question test covering domains 3, 4, 7 and 8, and produce a tachograph schedule with no limit violations.
Week 8: Score 90% or better on a full timed mock exam covering all nine domains, with no domain below 80%.
