Greece Category D Theory study plan
Greece Category D Theory · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 7 hours per week
Traffic Law and Road Signs
Classify every Greek road-sign group (warning, regulatory, information, priority, temporary) and state the driver obligation each one imposes
Recite the default urban and non-urban speed limits, and the reduced limits that apply near schools, tunnels and at night
Explain right-of-way rules at unmarked junctions, roundabouts and priority-road endings without notes
Solve 60 sign-recognition and priority questions in one sitting and log every error with the rule that was missed
Your checkpoint
A one-page personal error log listing at least 20 missed rules from week 1, each with the correct rule written in your own words
Traffic Law and Road Signs
Apply overtaking, lane-use and motorway rules to written scenarios, including prohibited overtaking cases
State parking and stopping prohibitions and the distance rules near junctions, crossings and bus stops
Interpret police hand signals and traffic-light combinations, including flashing amber and arrow phases
Complete a 40-question timed set on traffic law and score at least 85 percent
Your checkpoint
A timed 40-question mock on Domain 1 with a recorded score and a written review of every wrong answer
Road Safety and Hazard Perception
Identify the main hazard types in the Greek driving environment: narrow mountain roads, unlit rural stretches, livestock, scooters and tourist traffic
Describe safe following distances at 50, 80 and 90 km/h using the two-second rule and wet-road corrections
Explain how speed, load and road surface change braking distance, and apply the stopping-distance figures to scenario questions
Analyse 15 hazard-perception scenarios and name the earliest action that would reduce risk in each
Your checkpoint
A hazard scenario sheet of 15 situations, each with the risk identified and the correct anticipatory action written out
Road Safety and Hazard Perception & First Aid, Emergencies and Accident Procedure
Sequence the correct actions at a crash scene: protect the site, warn traffic, call emergency services, then give aid
State the first-aid steps for bleeding, unconscious breathing casualties and suspected spinal injury, and what not to do
Explain when and how to use warning triangles, hazard lights and reflective vests on Greek roads
Complete a combined 30-question set on road safety and emergency procedure and score at least 85 percent
Your checkpoint
A written accident-scene checklist of 10 ordered steps you can reproduce from memory
Vehicle Categories, Weights, Dimensions and Loads
State the maximum authorised masses and dimensions for the vehicle category you will drive and how they are verified
Explain axle loads, payload distribution and the effect of overloading on stability, braking and tyre wear
Describe the rules for securing and marking loads, including projection limits and required signage
Distinguish the licence categories, their mass limits and the conditions attached to each
Your checkpoint
A reference table of mass, dimension and load limits for your vehicle category, written from memory and then corrected against source material
Driver Hours, Rest Periods and Tachograph
State the daily and weekly driving limits, required breaks and daily and weekly rest periods for professional drivers
Explain how the tachograph records driving, other work, availability and rest, and which manual entries are required
Describe the documents a driver must carry and produce during a roadside inspection
Work through 10 calculation scenarios on daily driving time and rest and get at least 8 correct
Your checkpoint
A worked set of 10 hours-and-rest calculations with correct answers and the rule applied to each
Vehicle Mechanics, Maintenance and Pre-Trip Checks & Environmental Driving and Fuel Efficiency
List the pre-trip checks on tyres, brakes, lights, fluids, mirrors and load, and state the pass or fail criterion for each
Explain tyre pressure, tread depth and wear patterns and their link to grip and fuel consumption
Describe smooth-driving techniques that cut fuel use: gear selection, anticipation, idling avoidance and route planning
Identify the warning symbols on the dashboard and the correct driver response to each
Your checkpoint
A completed pre-trip inspection checklist with at least 15 items, each with a stated pass criterion and the action to take on failure
Professional Driver Conduct, Passenger Safety and Documentation & Traffic Law and Road Signs & Road Safety and Hazard Perception
State the professional conduct duties toward passengers, including boarding, seat belts, assistance and behaviour at stops
List the vehicle and driver documents that must be valid and carried, and the consequences of missing ones
Complete three full-length timed mock exams under test conditions and record each score
Review all logged errors from earlier weeks and confirm each rule can be stated correctly without notes
Your checkpoint
Three completed full-length mocks with scores and a final error log showing every earlier mistake resolved
Milestones
Week 2: Score at least 85 percent on a timed 40-question Domain 1 mock and show the written review of every wrong answer
Week 4: Reproduce the 10-step accident-scene checklist from memory and score at least 85 percent on the combined safety and emergency set
Week 6: Get at least 8 of 10 hours-and-rest calculations correct and state the mass and dimension limits for your vehicle category without notes
Week 8: Score at least 85 percent on all three full-length mocks and show a cleared error log with no unresolved entries
