Traffic rules and road signs
Map Domain 1 into four sub-areas (sign families, road markings, traffic signals, general conduct rules) and rate your confidence in each on a 1-5 scale before studying.
Memorise the Danish sign families by shape and colour logic (prohibition, warning, mandatory, information, priority) and state the meaning of 40 common signs from memory.
Recite the core conduct rules for lane use, overtaking, turning position, and use of horn and lights without looking anything up.
Log every sign or marking you cannot explain during a 45-minute walk or drive through town, then resolve each one the same day.
Your checkpoint
A personal sign-and-rule log of at least 40 items with correct meanings written from memory, scored by a self-quiz of 30 signs at 90% or better.
Traffic rules and road signs & Right of way and intersections
Apply the priority rules for unmarked junctions (right-before-left), T-junctions, and exits from private ground, and explain each in your own words.
Interpret yield-line, stop-line, and priority-road sign combinations at 15 junction scenarios drawn from memory on paper.
Explain how signs, signals, and a police officer's directions rank against each other when they conflict.
Complete 60 mixed Domain 1 and Domain 2 practice questions and re-study every wrong answer until you can justify the correct one.
Your checkpoint
A hand-drawn set of 15 junction sketches, each labelled with the correct right-of-way decision and the rule that decides it.
Right of way and intersections
Work through roundabout entry and exit priority, including multi-lane roundabouts and signalling on exit, until you can describe the sequence without notes.
Decide right of way for turning across oncoming traffic, left turns at junctions, and pedestrians at marked and unmarked crossings.
Identify the situations where a bus leaving a stop, an emergency vehicle, or a tram has priority over you.
Answer 40 right-of-way scenarios and record the reasoning for each answer, not just the letter.
Your checkpoint
A one-page decision checklist covering the six right-of-way situations you got wrong most often, with a worked example for each.
Speed, stopping distance and vehicle control
State the general urban and rural speed limits, and the limits that apply near schools, at roadworks, and when towing, without reference.
Compute stopping distance at 30, 50, 80, and 110 km/h using reaction distance plus braking distance, and explain how wet or icy surfaces change the result.
Explain how speed affects injury severity for a pedestrian at 30 versus 50 km/h and use that to justify speed choice in built-up areas.
Describe safe following distance in seconds and how to maintain it in rain, darkness, and heavy traffic.
Your checkpoint
A stopping-distance table for four speeds on dry and wet roads, with a 150-word written explanation of why the table justifies lower speed in towns.
Speed, stopping distance and vehicle control & Vehicle knowledge, tyres, lights and maintenance
Perform and document a pre-drive check covering tyres, lights, brakes, fluids, and mirrors, noting what a legal minimum tread depth and correct pressure look like.
Explain how ABS, ESC, and winter tyres change braking and steering behaviour, and when to fit winter tyres in Danish conditions.
Describe correct use of low beam, high beam, fog lights, and hazard lights in fog, rain, darkness, and tunnels.
Practise two low-speed manoeuvres (parallel parking and reversing into a bay) and note the mirror and shoulder-check sequence for each.
Your checkpoint
A completed vehicle-check sheet from a real car, listing each item checked, its measured or observed condition, and any defect found.
Safety, seat belts, helmets and child restraints & Alcohol, drugs, medication and fatigue
State the legal requirements for seat belts for adults and children, and the rules for child seats by height and age, including when a child may sit in front.
Explain helmet rules and the correct fit of a helmet and protective clothing for moped and motorcycle riders.
State the Danish alcohol limit for driving and describe how one unit of alcohol, time, body weight, and food affect blood alcohol.
List which common medicines and illegal drugs impair driving and explain the consequences of driving under the influence, including licence loss.
Identify the signs of fatigue and describe a concrete countermeasure plan for a long drive.
Your checkpoint
A one-page personal safety card covering belt and child-seat rules, the alcohol limit, three impairing medicine groups, and a fatigue stop rule, written without notes.
Hazard perception and defensive driving & First aid, incidents and emergency procedures
Scan for hazards using the mirror-signal-manoeuvre habit and narrate hazards aloud during three 20-minute practice drives or video walkthroughs.
Identify the five most common crash scenarios for young drivers (junction, overtaking, rear-end, curve, vulnerable road user) and state the defensive response to each.
Demonstrate the emergency sequence at a simulated incident: secure the scene, warn traffic, call 112, and give the location and situation clearly.
Describe first aid for an unconscious but breathing casualty, severe bleeding, and suspected spinal injury, and state when not to move a casualty.
Your checkpoint
A recorded or written hazard commentary for three scenarios, plus a written emergency action script that covers scene safety, the 112 call, and first aid priorities.
Traffic rules and road signs & Right of way and intersections & Speed, stopping distance and vehicle control & Safety, seat belts, helmets and child restraints & Alcohol, drugs, medication and fatigue & Hazard perception and defensive driving & Vehicle knowledge, tyres, lights and maintenance & First aid, incidents and emergency procedures
Take two full-length timed mock tests under exam conditions and score both.
Re-study every missed question from the mock tests until you can explain the correct answer and why the others are wrong.
Revisit your weakest two domains using your own logs from weeks 1-7, focusing only on items still marked uncertain.
Rehearse the emergency script and the safety card aloud one final time so both are recallable under pressure.
Your checkpoint
Two completed timed mock tests with a written error log and a final score of 90% or better on the second attempt.
Milestones
Week 2: Score 80% or better on a 30-question mixed Domain 1 and Domain 2 quiz, and correctly explain the right-before-left rule at an unmarked junction without notes.
Week 4: Reproduce the stopping-distance table for four speeds on dry and wet roads from memory and explain the wet-road increase in one paragraph.
Week 6: Recite the alcohol limit, the child-restraint rules, and three impairing medicine groups from memory with no errors.
Week 8: Score 90% or better on a full-length timed mock test, with every missed question logged and explained in writing.
