DR Congo Driving Theory Test study plan

Classify every sign family (danger, prohibition, obligation, indication, priority, temporary roadworks) and state the driver action each demands

Memorise the Congolese speed limits for built-up areas, rural roads and motorways, and match each limit to its regulatory sign

Read the meaning of the main road markings: continuous and broken centre lines, edge lines, zebra crossings, stop lines and hatched areas

Decode traffic-light sequences including flashing amber, filter arrows and pedestrian signals, and state who has priority at each phase

Identify priority-road signs, stop signs and yield signs and explain how each changes right-of-way at an unmarked junction

Interpret temporary roadworks signage and manual signals given by uniformed officers directing traffic

Distinguish warning signs for bends, humps, level crossings, school zones and livestock from prohibition signs with similar silhouettes

Explain how road markings and signs combine (for example a solid line plus a no-overtaking sign) and which one prevails

Apply the default priority rules at intersections: priority to the right, priority roads, roundabouts and T-junctions

State the correct order of action at a stop sign, a yield sign and an uncontrolled crossing

Describe overtaking rules: permitted zones, prohibited zones, safe lateral clearance for cyclists and pedestrians, and returning to the lane

Explain following-distance rules and how to convert speed into a safe gap in seconds

Apply pedestrian priority rules at zebra crossings, at junctions when a vehicle turns, and for children and elderly pedestrians

Describe how to enter and exit a roundabout, including lane choice and signalling

Identify the five most common hazard types in Congolese urban traffic: pedestrians, moto-taxis, unmarked potholes, livestock and overloaded vehicles

Demonstrate the hazard-perception routine of scan, predict, decide and act on written scenarios

List the pre-journey checks for tyres, brakes, lights, fluids, mirrors and seat belts, and state the pass/fail threshold for each

Explain the effects of rain, mud, gravel, poor visibility and night driving on braking distance and steering control

Describe the correct response to a tyre blowout, brake fade, aquaplaning and a jammed accelerator

Explain the purpose and correct use of seat belts, child restraints, helmets for motorcyclists, warning triangles and reflective vests

Explain the warning lights on the dashboard and which ones require an immediate stop

Describe basic maintenance intervals for oil, coolant, brake fluid, tyre pressure and tread depth

State the correct sequence after a collision: secure the scene, warn other traffic, assess casualties, call emergency services and exchange details

Describe first-aid actions for bleeding, unconscious but breathing casualties, suspected spinal injury, burns and shock, including what not to do

List the documents a driver must carry: driving licence, vehicle registration, insurance certificate, technical inspection certificate and any required permits

State the consequences of driving without a licence, without insurance, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and of using a phone while driving

Explain the point or penalty system, licence suspension and vehicle impoundment rules as they apply to common offences

Describe the licence categories, the conditions for obtaining each, and the renewal and medical-fitness requirements

Re-run every earlier self-test and log every wrong answer by domain

Re-study only the two weakest domains until each self-test reaches 90%

Complete two full timed mock exams under exam conditions with no notes

Review the accident-response card and the offence table one final time before test day
