Question 1General provisions, driver duties and documents

Which document confirms that a driver has the right to drive vehicles of the category stated on it?

  1. The vehicle inspection coupon
  2. The compulsory insurance policy
  3. The vehicle registration certificate
  4. The driver's licence Correct answer.

Explanation

A driver's licence is the personal document that authorises its holder to drive vehicles of the categories shown on it. Other papers belong to the vehicle and prove registration, insurance or roadworthiness, not the driver's right to drive.

Question 2General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver is stopped by a GAI inspector. Which document must the driver hand over together with the driver's licence?

  1. A receipt for the last fuel purchase
  2. A medical certificate of fitness
  3. The vehicle registration certificate Correct answer.
  4. A power of attorney for the car

Explanation

The driver must present the licence and the registration certificate for the vehicle being driven. The registration document links the driver to the specific car at the moment of the check.

Question 3General provisions, driver duties and documents

What must a driver do immediately after being involved in a road traffic accident in which people were injured?

  1. Move the injured persons out of the car and continue the trip
  2. Wait in the car until the other driver proposes a settlement
  3. Drive on to the nearest police station without stopping
  4. Stop, render assistance to the injured and call the emergency services Correct answer.

Explanation

A driver involved in an accident with casualties must stop at once, give first aid to the injured and call for medical and police help. Leaving the scene or continuing the journey is a serious violation.

Question 4General provisions, driver duties and documents

Before starting to drive, what must the driver check regarding the seat belts?

  1. That the driver and all passengers have fastened their belts Correct answer.
  2. That the belts are loosely hanging for comfort
  3. That only the front belts are functional
  4. That the belts are removed from the rear seats

Explanation

Before moving off, the driver must make sure that the driver and every passenger are wearing a fastened seat belt where one is provided. The obligation covers all occupied seats, not only the front row.

Question 5General provisions, driver duties and documents

Which of these is a duty of a driver before driving away from a parking place?

  1. Make sure the manoeuvre is safe and does not endanger other road users Correct answer.
  2. Ask a passer-by to direct the car onto the road
  3. Sound the horn to warn everyone nearby
  4. Switch on the hazard lights for the whole manoeuvre

Explanation

Before moving off, the driver must verify that the manoeuvre is safe for other road users and does not force them to change speed or direction. Warning devices and assistants do not replace this personal check.

Question 6General provisions, driver duties and documents

What does the compulsory third-party liability insurance of a vehicle cover?

  1. Repair of the insured vehicle after any accident
  2. Medical treatment of the insured driver
  3. Theft of the insured vehicle from a car park
  4. Damage caused by the vehicle to other persons and their property Correct answer.

Explanation

Compulsory civil liability insurance covers harm the vehicle causes to third parties, their health or their property. It does not pay for the insured driver's own car or personal medical costs.

Question 7General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver intends to drive a car towing a trailer whose permissible maximum mass exceeds 750 kg. What licence category is generally required?

  1. Category C
  2. Category B only
  3. Category M
  4. Category BE Correct answer.

Explanation

Driving a category B car with a trailer heavier than 750 kg generally requires category BE. Category B alone covers only light trailers within the permitted combination limits.

Question 8General provisions, driver duties and documents

What must a driver do when an authorised official signals to stop the vehicle?

  1. Stop only if the signal is given by a police car with flashing lights
  2. Slow down and continue if the driver believes there is no reason
  3. Stop in the indicated place and present the requested documents Correct answer.
  4. Stop after reaching the nearest petrol station

Explanation

A driver must obey a lawful signal to stop, halt in the place indicated and hand over the documents requested. The driver's own opinion about the reason for the check does not cancel the duty.

Question 9General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver becomes tired and drowsy during a long trip. What is the correct course of action?

  1. Increase speed to reach the destination sooner
  2. Stop in a safe place and rest before continuing Correct answer.
  3. Drink coffee while driving and continue without stopping
  4. Open the window and keep driving at the same speed

Explanation

Fatigue sharply reduces attention and reaction time, so the driver must stop in a safe place and rest. Temporary measures such as fresh air or coffee do not remove the risk of falling asleep at the wheel.

Question 10General provisions, driver duties and documents

What is the driver obliged to do if a passenger refuses to fasten the seat belt in a car equipped with belts?

  1. Start the journey and rely on the passenger's responsibility
  2. Drive only on minor roads
  3. Not start the journey until the passenger fastens the belt Correct answer.
  4. Ask the passenger to sit in the middle of the rear seat

Explanation

The driver is responsible for ensuring that passengers use seat belts, so the journey may not begin while a passenger refuses to buckle up. The passenger's own choice does not release the driver from this duty.

Question 11General provisions, driver duties and documents

In which situation is a driver allowed to hand over control of the vehicle to another person?

  1. When that person holds a valid licence for the relevant category Correct answer.
  2. When the trip is short and on quiet streets
  3. When that person has driven for many years without a licence
  4. When the owner of the car gives verbal permission

Explanation

Control of a vehicle may be transferred only to a person who holds a valid driving licence of the appropriate category. Experience, ownership or the length of the trip cannot replace the licence.

Question 12General provisions, driver duties and documents

What must the driver do with the documents when the vehicle is stopped for a check and the driver is not the owner?

  1. Explain that the owner keeps all papers at home
  2. Show a copy of the purchase contract instead
  3. Present the licence and the vehicle registration certificate as requested Correct answer.
  4. Present only an identity card

Explanation

The driver must present a personal licence and the registration certificate for the vehicle, even when the car belongs to someone else. The check concerns the right to drive and the identity of the vehicle, not ownership.

Question 13General provisions, driver duties and documents

What is the driver required to do if the vehicle's registration certificate has been lost?

  1. Write the details on a sheet of paper and carry it
  2. Refrain from driving until a replacement document is obtained Correct answer.
  3. Continue driving and explain the loss at the first check
  4. Drive only during daylight hours

Explanation

A vehicle may not be used without a valid registration certificate, so driving must stop until a duplicate is issued. A handwritten note or a verbal explanation is not a substitute for the document.

Question 14General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver is involved in an accident with only minor material damage and no injuries. What should the driver do first?

  1. Leave the scene to inform the insurance company in person
  2. Move the cars without any marking of their positions
  3. Stop, switch on the hazard lights and put out the warning triangle Correct answer.
  4. Continue driving if the other driver agrees by gesture

Explanation

Even in a minor accident the driver must stop, make the vehicle visible with hazard lights and a warning triangle, and then handle the formalities. These steps protect the scene from further collisions.

Question 15General provisions, driver duties and documents

Which of these best describes the driver's duty regarding the technical condition of the vehicle before a trip?

  1. Only the mechanic who serviced the car is responsible for its condition
  2. The driver must ensure the vehicle is roadworthy and does not set off with known faults Correct answer.
  3. The driver must check the condition only before long journeys
  4. The driver may set off and have faults repaired after the trip

Explanation

The driver is responsible for the vehicle being in a roadworthy condition and must not begin a trip with faults affecting safety. This duty applies to every journey, and responsibility cannot be shifted to a mechanic.

Question 16General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver's licence shows category B. The driver wishes to ride a motorcycle with an engine capacity of 250 cm3. What is the correct statement?

  1. Category B automatically covers all motorcycles
  2. Category B covers motorcycles if the rider is over 21
  3. Category B covers motorcycles only outside built-up areas
  4. A separate licence category for motorcycles is required Correct answer.

Explanation

Category B authorises cars, not motorcycles, so riding a 250 cm3 motorcycle requires the appropriate motorcycle category on the licence. Age or the type of road does not extend category B.

Question 17General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver has taken medicine that may cause drowsiness. How should the driver act?

  1. Reduce the dose on the day of the trip and drive as usual
  2. Avoid driving while the effect lasts, in line with the medical warning Correct answer.
  3. Drive only with a passenger who can take over
  4. Drive more slowly to compensate for the effect

Explanation

Medicines that impair attention or cause drowsiness make driving unsafe, and the driver must refrain from driving while the effect lasts. Slower speed or a passenger does not remove the impairment.

Question 18General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver is asked by an official to step out of the car for an examination of the state of intoxication. What is the correct behaviour?

  1. Agree only if a lawyer is present at the roadside
  2. Comply with the lawful request and follow the prescribed procedure Correct answer.
  3. Refuse and drive away because no accident occurred
  4. Offer to continue the trip on foot instead

Explanation

A driver must comply with a lawful request to undergo examination for intoxication carried out under the established procedure. Refusal is treated as a serious violation and does not avoid liability.

Question 19General provisions, driver duties and documents

A driver causes damage to another person's property with the vehicle. Which duty applies?

  1. Continue driving because no person was hurt
  2. Report the damage only at the next annual inspection
  3. Stop, inform the owner or police and provide the required details Correct answer.
  4. Leave a note only if the owner is absent for a long time

Explanation

Causing property damage obliges the driver to stop, inform the affected person or the police and supply the necessary details for compensation. The absence of injuries does not allow the driver to leave.

Question 20General provisions, driver duties and documents

Under the general provisions of Belarusian traffic rules, what is the maximum permitted period for a driver to submit a vehicle for a technical inspection after the previous inspection certificate expires?

  1. Within 5 days after the expiry date
  2. Within 30 days after the expiry date
  3. Immediately on the exact expiry date, with no grace period
  4. No later than the last day of the month in which the previous inspection expires Correct answer.

Explanation

Belarusian rules tie the periodic technical inspection to a calendar deadline: the vehicle must be presented no later than the final day of the month in which the previous inspection validity ends. This gives the owner the whole of that month to arrange the inspection while the vehicle remains legally usable. Missing that deadline means the vehicle may no longer be operated on public roads until it passes inspection.

Question 21Road signs

What does a circular sign with a red border and the number 60 in the centre indicate?

  1. The minimum permitted speed is 60 km/h
  2. A recommended speed of 60 km/h
  3. The maximum permitted speed is 60 km/h Correct answer.
  4. The speed limit applies only to lorries

Explanation

A red-bordered circle is a prohibitory sign, and a number inside it sets the maximum speed allowed from the point where the sign stands until the next change. Drivers must not exceed that value and may be penalised for doing so.

Question 22Road signs

A triangular sign with a red border showing a black exclamation mark warns of what?

  1. A parking area reserved for emergencies
  2. A compulsory direction of travel ahead
  3. The end of all restrictions
  4. A general danger not covered by a specific warning sign Correct answer.

Explanation

Red-bordered triangles are warning signs, and the exclamation mark is the generic danger symbol used where no more specific pictogram applies. The driver should slow down and be ready to react to an unspecified hazard.

Question 23Road signs

You approach a sign showing a white arrow curving to the left inside a blue circle. What does it require?

  1. A left-turn lane ends shortly
  2. Left turns are recommended but optional
  3. Turn left ahead is prohibited
  4. You must proceed only in the direction of the arrow Correct answer.

Explanation

A blue circle carrying a white arrow is a mandatory sign, so the arrow shows the only direction in which you are permitted to continue. Ignoring it is a traffic offence rather than a mere suggestion.

Question 24Road signs

What is indicated by an octagonal red sign bearing the word STOP?

  1. You must come to a complete stop and give way Correct answer.
  2. Stopping is prohibited beyond this point
  3. You must stop only if another vehicle is visible
  4. You should slow down and continue if the road looks clear

Explanation

The octagonal red sign is the only sign that requires a full stop at the marked line regardless of whether traffic is visible. After stopping, the driver must yield to vehicles on the road being entered.

Question 25Road signs

A downward-pointing red-and-white triangle means which of the following?

  1. You have priority over all other traffic
  2. Give way to traffic on the road you are joining or crossing Correct answer.
  3. Stop completely before proceeding
  4. No entry for all vehicles

Explanation

The inverted triangle is the give-way sign: the driver must let traffic on the priority road pass before entering or crossing it. A full stop is required only when necessary to yield.

Question 26Road signs

What does a blue square sign with a white letter P indicate?

  1. A designated parking place Correct answer.
  2. A pedestrian crossing zone
  3. A police checkpoint
  4. No parking at any time

Explanation

The white P on a blue background is the information sign marking a place where parking is permitted. Any time limits or conditions are added on supplementary plates below the sign.

Question 27Road signs

A red circle containing a white horizontal bar means what?

  1. One-way road begins
  2. No entry for vehicles Correct answer.
  3. Road closed to pedestrians only
  4. Stop and wait for a signal

Explanation

The red circle with a white bar is the no-entry sign, placed at the end of a road that vehicles may not enter from this direction. It is commonly seen at exits of one-way streets.

Question 28Road signs

On a sign showing a red circle with a black car and a red diagonal line, what is prohibited?

  1. Use of horns by cars
  2. Entry for motor vehicles Correct answer.
  3. Overtaking by cars
  4. Parking of cars

Explanation

A red diagonal line across a vehicle symbol inside a red circle prohibits that category of vehicle from entering the road or zone. The sign applies from its location until a sign cancelling it appears.

Question 29Road signs

You see a warning sign for a slippery road. How should you adapt your driving?

  1. Maintain speed but switch on the hazard lights
  2. Increase speed to pass the section quickly
  3. Sound the horn continuously while crossing
  4. Reduce speed and avoid sudden braking or steering Correct answer.

Explanation

On a slippery surface grip is reduced, so stopping distances grow and sudden inputs can cause a skid. Smooth, gentle braking and steering at lower speed keep the tyres within their available grip.

Question 30Road signs

A supplementary rectangular plate below a speed-limit sign shows a lorry symbol. What does this mean?

  1. Lorries are banned from the road
  2. The limit applies only to lorries Correct answer.
  3. Lorries must use the left lane
  4. The limit applies to all vehicles except lorries

Explanation

Supplementary plates restrict or explain the sign above them, so a lorry symbol limits that speed restriction to lorries only. Other vehicles remain bound by the general limit in force.

Question 31Road signs

What is the effect of a sign showing the same speed number with a grey diagonal band across it?

  1. The previously indicated speed limit ends Correct answer.
  2. The speed limit applies only at night
  3. A minimum speed now applies
  4. The speed limit is doubled

Explanation

A diagonal band across a sign cancels the restriction it repeats, so the earlier speed limit stops applying at that point. The general limit for the road type then governs your speed.

Question 32Road signs

A blue circular sign shows a white bicycle. What obligation does it create?

  1. Cyclists may ride only at walking pace
  2. Cyclists must give way to motor traffic
  3. Cycles are prohibited beyond this point
  4. A cycle path that cyclists must use begins here Correct answer.

Explanation

Blue circles are mandatory signs, so the bicycle symbol designates a path reserved for cyclists and requires them to use it. Other road users must keep off that facility.

Question 33Road signs

You are driving and pass a sign showing a red circle with a black diagonal line through the letter P on a blue background. What does it mean?

  1. Parking is reserved for disabled drivers
  2. Parking is allowed on the pavement
  3. Parking is prohibited Correct answer.
  4. Parking is permitted for a limited time

Explanation

A blue square with the letter P crossed by a red line is the no-parking sign, which forbids leaving the vehicle parked along that stretch. Stopping briefly to pick up or set down may still be allowed unless a stricter sign applies.

Question 34Road signs

A round sign with a red border shows a black arrow bending to the right with a red diagonal line across it. What is prohibited?

  1. Turning right at the junction ahead Correct answer.
  2. Going straight on
  3. Reversing into a side road
  4. Turning left at the junction ahead

Explanation

The arrow inside the red circle shows the movement being regulated, and the diagonal line cancels it, so a right turn is forbidden. You must choose another permitted direction at the junction.

Question 35Road signs

What does a yellow diamond sign with a white border signify?

  1. The end of a built-up area
  2. A danger zone begins
  3. You are on a road that has priority at junctions Correct answer.
  4. A compulsory stop ahead

Explanation

The yellow diamond marks a priority road, meaning traffic on it has the right of way at junctions until a sign cancels the status. A grey diagonal band across the diamond shows where priority ends.

Question 36Road signs

A warning sign shows a bend to the left. Where should you position and how should you approach?

  1. Reduce speed before the bend and keep well within your lane Correct answer.
  2. Keep to the right edge and maintain speed
  3. Brake sharply only after entering the bend
  4. Overtake slower vehicles on the bend

Explanation

Speed should be reduced before the curve so the vehicle is stable and within its lane throughout the turn. Braking while already turning reduces grip and can cause a skid or a drift into the opposite lane.

Question 37Road signs

A square blue sign shows a white arrow pointing straight ahead with the word 'one way' implied by the layout. What information does it give?

  1. Traffic on this road moves only in the direction of the arrow Correct answer.
  2. Only buses may use the road
  3. Traffic may move in either direction
  4. The road ahead is closed

Explanation

The one-way sign informs drivers that all traffic on the carriageway flows in the direction shown by the arrow. This affects lane choice, overtaking and where you may position the vehicle.

Question 38Road signs

You approach a sign showing a pedestrian crossing warning triangle, and a pedestrian is waiting at the crossing. What must you do?

  1. Flash your headlights to make the pedestrian wait
  2. Sound the horn and pass behind the pedestrian
  3. Continue at the same speed because the sign is only advisory
  4. Slow down and give way so the pedestrian can cross Correct answer.

Explanation

The warning sign alerts you to a marked crossing ahead, and once a pedestrian is waiting or already on it you must yield. Approach at a speed that lets you stop comfortably within the distance you can see.

Question 39Road signs

A red-bordered circular sign shows the number 3.5 t with a lorry symbol. What does it prohibit?

  1. Vehicles wider than 3.5 metres
  2. All vehicles carrying more than three passengers
  3. Vehicles longer than 3.5 metres
  4. Vehicles whose actual laden mass exceeds 3.5 tonnes Correct answer.

Explanation

The tonnage on a prohibitory sign refers to the maximum authorised mass of the vehicle, so vehicles above 3.5 tonnes may not proceed. Lighter vehicles are unaffected by this restriction.

Question 40Road signs

A sign shows a red circle with a black and red car pair, the red car on the left. What does it mean?

  1. Overtaking is prohibited Correct answer.
  2. Two-way traffic ahead
  3. Overtaking is permitted only by lorries
  4. No parking on the left side

Explanation

The paired car symbols with one in red indicate an overtaking prohibition from the sign until it is cancelled. The ban applies to overtaking motor vehicles other than two-wheeled machines without a sidecar.

Question 41Road signs

A blue circular sign shows a white arrow pointing straight ahead and a white arrow bending right. What does it permit?

  1. Only going straight on
  2. Going straight on or turning right Correct answer.
  3. Turning right only after stopping
  4. Only turning right

Explanation

Each arrow on a mandatory sign shows a direction that is permitted, so the combination allows either continuing straight or turning right. Any direction not shown by an arrow is forbidden.

Question 42Road signs

A warning triangle shows a traffic-light symbol, but the signal is not visible from your position. What is the correct interpretation?

  1. The sign is obsolete and may be ignored
  2. The lights are permanently green
  3. Signals control the junction ahead, so be ready to stop Correct answer.
  4. The sign marks a pedestrian zone

Explanation

The sign warns that the junction ahead is controlled by traffic lights that may be hidden by a bend, hill or vegetation. You should adjust speed so you can stop if the signal turns red as it comes into view.

Question 43Road signs

You pass a priority-road diamond sign and later see the same diamond crossed by a grey diagonal band. What has changed?

  1. The speed limit has been removed
  2. Your road no longer has automatic priority at junctions Correct answer.
  3. A compulsory stop now applies at every junction
  4. The road has become a one-way street

Explanation

The grey band cancels the priority-road status, so from that point the general right-hand or sign-posted rules decide who gives way. Drivers must watch for give-way or stop signs and for traffic emerging from side roads.

Question 44Road signs

A red circle contains a black lorry symbol and a supplementary plate reading '500 m'. How should this be understood?

  1. The restriction applies only beyond 500 metres from the sign
  2. The lorry prohibition begins 500 metres ahead Correct answer.
  3. Lorries must leave the road within 500 metres
  4. Lorries may proceed for 500 metres then must stop

Explanation

A distance on a supplementary plate states how far ahead the associated sign takes effect, so the prohibition starts 500 metres further on. Until that point lorries may still use the road lawfully.

Question 45Road signs

A sign shows a red circle with a white bar, and beneath it a plate reading 'except trams'. What is the effect?

  1. The plate cancels the sign for all vehicles
  2. Only trams are prohibited from entering
  3. Trams are also prohibited from entering
  4. Trams may enter although other vehicles may not Correct answer.

Explanation

A supplementary plate beginning with 'except' creates an exemption from the sign above for the category named. The no-entry rule therefore continues to bind all vehicles other than trams.

Question 46Road signs

A triangular sign with a red border shows a black symbol of a lorry tipping material onto a heap. What hazard does this warn of?

  1. A quarry entrance where lorries cross the road
  2. A steep uphill gradient unsuitable for loaded lorries
  3. Loose chippings or a gravel surface on the road ahead Correct answer.
  4. A weighbridge where heavy vehicles must stop

Explanation

Triangular signs with a red border are warning signs, and the tipping-lorry symbol specifically warns of loose chippings or an unpaved, gravel-strewn surface ahead. Such a surface reduces grip and can throw stones up at following traffic, so speed should be reduced and braking distances increased.

Question 47Road signs

A blue rectangular sign displays a white symbol of a bus. What does this sign tell you?

  1. A bus stop or bus terminus is located here Correct answer.
  2. Only scheduled buses may use this lane
  3. An overtaking ban applies to buses
  4. Buses are prohibited from using this road

Explanation

Blue rectangular signs give information or indicate a facility, and the white bus symbol marks a bus stop or terminus. Drivers should expect buses to pull in and out and passengers to be waiting or crossing near the sign.

Question 48Road signs

A circular sign with a red border contains a black symbol of two children. What does it require of you?

  1. Children must not walk along this road
  2. Playground areas are closed to vehicles
  3. A school bus stop is ahead
  4. Children are likely to be crossing or near the road, so slow down Correct answer.

Explanation

This is a warning sign for children, typically placed near schools, playgrounds or other places where children may be in the road. The correct response is to reduce speed and be ready to stop suddenly, since children may act unpredictably.

Question 49Road signs

A blue circular sign shows a white arrow pointing to the left. What does this sign mean?

  1. Left turns are permitted but not required
  2. You must turn left Correct answer.
  3. A left bend is ahead
  4. Turn left ahead is prohibited

Explanation

Blue circular signs are mandatory signs, and a white arrow on a blue circle directs traffic in the direction shown. Here the driver must turn left; continuing straight or turning right is not allowed at that point.

Question 50Road signs

A red-bordered circular sign shows a black pedestrian symbol with a red diagonal line across it. What is the effect of this sign?

  1. Pedestrians must cross only in groups
  2. Pedestrians are prohibited from walking on the carriageway at this point Correct answer.
  3. A pedestrian crossing is ahead and pedestrians have priority
  4. Pedestrians must use the footpath on the opposite side

Explanation

A red circle with a diagonal line is a prohibition sign, and the pedestrian symbol means pedestrians may not use the carriageway here. This is typically used where a safer route such as a footpath or subway exists nearby.
