Hong Kong LGV Theory Test study plan

Hong Kong LGV Theory Test · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Road signs, signals and markings

  • Classify every Hong Kong regulatory, warning and information sign type by shape and colour, and state what action each demands

  • Memorise the meaning of all road markings, including double white lines, box junctions, zig-zag approaches and bus lane markings

  • Explain the sequence of a full three-colour traffic light, filter arrows, flashing amber and pedestrian signals

  • State the meaning of signals given by police officers, traffic wardens and school crossing patrols

Your checkpoint

A hand-drawn one-page sign and marking summary sheet, self-tested to 90% accuracy on 60 randomly chosen items

Week 2

Rules of the road and driving regulations

  • Apply the hierarchy of speed limits, including restricted zones, and identify the limit that applies to a goods vehicle on each road type

  • State overtaking, lane discipline and dual-carriageway rules, including where a goods vehicle may not use the right-hand lane

  • Explain priority rules at roundabouts, T-junctions and uncontrolled junctions, and the correct use of indicators and mirrors

  • Describe parking, stopping and waiting restrictions, including clearways, loading bays and yellow lines

Your checkpoint

A written table of 25 road scenarios matched to the correct rule and legal limit, reviewed against your own error log

Week 3

Road signs, signals and markings & Rules of the road and driving regulations

  • Combine sign, marking and rule knowledge by answering 100 mixed questions under timed conditions

  • Identify and rewrite every question you answered incorrectly into a personal correction note

  • Explain how temporary signs, roadworks signals and contraflow systems override normal rules

  • Describe the rules for level crossings, tram lanes and pedestrian crossings in Hong Kong

Your checkpoint

A timed 100-question mock paper scored at 85% or better, with a written correction note for every miss

Week 4

Safe driving and hazard awareness

  • Define stopping distances at 30, 50 and 70 km/h and explain how wet roads, loads and vehicle condition change them

  • Identify the main hazard types on urban, rural and highway roads and state the correct response to each

  • Explain the two-second rule and how to apply it when following a heavy vehicle

  • Describe the risks of blind spots, tailgating and overtaking on single carriageways, and how to mitigate them

Your checkpoint

A hazard-spotting log of 20 real or described road scenes, each with the hazard, the risk and the planned response

Week 5

Vehicle knowledge, loading and mechanical checks

  • List the pre-drive walk-around checks for tyres, lights, fluids, brakes and mirrors, and state the legal minimum tread depth

  • Explain the purpose of tachographs, speed limiters and ABS, and the driver's duty to report defects

  • Describe how axle weights, gross vehicle weight and load distribution affect handling and braking

  • State the daily and weekly checks a goods vehicle driver must record and where to report faults

Your checkpoint

A completed sample daily defect report and a written explanation of each item checked, ready to discuss at a lesson

Week 6

Goods vehicle driving and load security & Traffic offences, penalties and driver responsibilities

  • Explain load security principles, including lashing, sheeting and weight distribution, and the risks of an unsecured load

  • State the offences and penalties for overloading, insecure loads, speeding and using a mobile phone while driving

  • Describe the driver's responsibilities for vehicle documents, insurance, licences and record keeping

  • Explain the consequences of driving without due care, dangerous driving and failing to stop after a collision

Emergency procedures and incident handling & Driver fitness, alcohol, drugs and fatigue

  • Describe the correct actions at a breakdown, a collision and a fire, including warning other traffic and protecting the scene

  • State the first-aid priorities and the information to give the emergency services

  • Explain how alcohol, drugs, prescribed medication, illness and fatigue affect driving and the legal limits

  • Plan a realistic rest and break pattern for a long shift and identify the warning signs of fatigue

Your checkpoint

A written incident-response card for three scenarios and a personal fatigue-management plan for a full working week

Week 8

Road signs, signals and markings & Rules of the road and driving regulations & Safe driving and hazard awareness & Vehicle knowledge, loading and mechanical checks & Goods vehicle driving and load security & Traffic offences, penalties and driver responsibilities & Emergency procedures and incident handling & Driver fitness, alcohol, drugs and fatigue

  • Sit three full timed mock papers covering all eight domains and track scores by domain

  • Re-study only the two weakest domains until each reaches 85% in practice

  • Recite the key sign, marking, speed limit and stopping distance facts from memory without notes

  • Review your correction log and confirm every earlier error can now be explained correctly

Your checkpoint

Three mock papers averaging 90% or better, with a domain-by-domain score sheet showing no domain below 80%

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 80% on a 50-question paper limited to road signs, signals, markings and rules of the road

Week 4: Score at least 85% on a 100-question mixed paper and show a correction note for every wrong answer

Week 6: Score at least 85% on a 100-question paper weighted towards vehicle knowledge, loading and offences

Week 8: Average 90% or better across three full mock papers with no single domain below 80%
