Brunei Highway Code Theory study plan
Brunei Highway Code Theory · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Road signs, signals and road markings
Classify every road sign type (warning, regulatory, informational, temporary) and state the required driver response for each without referring to notes
Recite the meaning of the main traffic light phases and flashing signals, and describe what to do at each
Interpret common road markings (solid and broken lines, box junctions, stop and give-way lines, hatched areas) and explain the rule each imposes
Complete 60 sign-and-marking recall questions with at least 90 percent accuracy
Your checkpoint
A self-made one-page sign and marking summary sheet, plus a scored 60-question recall test result recorded with the date and score
Road signs, signals and road markings & Traffic rules, right of way and intersections
Apply give-way and priority rules at junctions, roundabouts and uncontrolled intersections by working through at least 15 written scenarios
Sequence the correct actions for turning across oncoming traffic, emerging from a side road and joining a roundabout
Identify which signals and markings override general priority rules and explain why in each case
Score at least 85 percent on a 40-question mixed signs-and-priority quiz
Your checkpoint
A written scenario log of 15 junction decisions, each with the correct action and the rule that justifies it
Traffic rules, right of way and intersections & Safe driving behaviour, speed and following distance
State the speed limits for built-up areas, rural roads and expressways, and describe how to judge a safe speed below the limit
Calculate the two-second following gap at several speeds and explain how wet or night conditions change it
Describe overtaking, lane discipline and safe gap-selection rules, and list the situations where overtaking is prohibited
Complete 50 speed-and-following-distance calculation and rule questions with at least 85 percent accuracy
Your checkpoint
A following-distance and stopping-distance reference table you built yourself, checked against the official guidance
Safe driving behaviour, speed and following distance & Hazard awareness and defensive driving
List at least 12 specific hazards to scan for in urban, rural and residential settings and describe the early cue for each
Explain the see-think-do hazard routine and apply it in writing to five described driving scenes
Describe how to manage blind spots, mirrors and shoulder checks before and during manoeuvres
Explain how to handle tailgaters, oncoming wide vehicles and obstructed lanes defensively
Your checkpoint
A hazard-spotting worksheet covering five written scenes, each with identified hazards, the early cue and the planned response
Hazard awareness and defensive driving & Vehicle safety, maintenance and documents
Describe pre-drive checks for tyres, lights, brakes, fluids and mirrors, and state the warning sign of a failing component for each
Explain the documents a driver must carry or keep valid (licence, insurance, road tax, inspection) and the consequence of each being out of date
Identify common dashboard warning lights and state whether each means stop, seek service soon or monitor
Explain how vehicle loading, tyre pressure and worn tread affect braking and steering
Your checkpoint
A completed vehicle safety checklist with at least 15 items, each paired with the warning sign of failure and the correct action
Alcohol, drugs, fatigue and driver fitness & Sharing the road with pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists
State how alcohol and drugs impair judgement, reaction time and vision, and describe the legal and practical consequences of driving impaired
Recognise the signs of driver fatigue and list at least five countermeasures, distinguishing effective ones from myths
Describe safe passing distances and expected behaviour around pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists, including at crossings and junctions
Explain the specific risks of large vehicles, blind spots and children near schools and residential streets
Your checkpoint
A one-page fitness-to-drive and vulnerable-road-user summary covering impairment signs, fatigue countermeasures and passing distances
Emergency procedures, incidents and first aid basics & Road conditions, weather and night driving
Sequence the correct actions at an incident scene: securing the area, calling for help, and giving basic first aid within your competence
Describe how to handle a breakdown safely, including warning other traffic and where to wait
Explain how rain, flooding, poor visibility and night conditions change speed, gap and lighting choices
Describe how to use headlights correctly at night and in rain without dazzling other drivers
Your checkpoint
A written incident-response script covering three scenarios (collision, breakdown, flooded road), each with ordered actions and first-aid basics
Road signs, signals and road markings & Traffic rules, right of way and intersections & Safe driving behaviour, speed and following distance & Hazard awareness and defensive driving & Vehicle safety, maintenance and documents & Alcohol, drugs, fatigue and driver fitness & Sharing the road with pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists & Emergency procedures, incidents and first aid basics & Road conditions, weather and night driving
Complete three full-length timed mock tests and record the score and error pattern for each
Re-study every missed question by domain and write the correct rule in your own words
Revisit your weakest two domains until mock scores reach at least 90 percent on each
Recite the highest-risk rules (priority, following distance, impairment limits) from memory without prompts
Your checkpoint
Three scored timed mock tests with a written error log and a final weak-area revision list
Milestones
Week 2: Can classify all sign types and resolve give-way scenarios at 85 percent or better on a mixed quiz
Week 4: Can apply the hazard routine in writing to five scenes and score 85 percent or better on speed and following-distance questions
Week 6: Can state impairment and fatigue rules and vulnerable-road-user passing distances from memory with no notes
Week 8: Three timed mock tests completed with a written error log and at least 90 percent on the two weakest domains
