Hungary KRESZ A1 study plan

Hungary KRESZ A1 · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Traffic rules and regulations (KRESZ) & Traffic signs, signals and road markings

  • List and explain the KRESZ priority rules (jobbra-balra szabály, main road, roundabout, uncontrolled junction) in your own words

  • Identify every category of Hungarian traffic sign by shape and colour and give two concrete examples per category

  • Practise 40 mixed priority and sign-recognition questions and log every error with the rule it tested

  • Draw a diagram of a four-way uncontrolled junction and mark who yields in six different arrival scenarios

Your checkpoint

A one-page hand-drawn priority cheat sheet plus an error log of 40 answered questions, with each mistake traced to a KRESZ rule or sign category

Week 2

Traffic rules and regulations (KRESZ) & Traffic signs, signals and road markings

  • Apply speed-limit, following-distance and overtaking rules to ten written scenarios set on Hungarian road types (lakott terület, autópálya, autóút, főút)

  • Interpret road markings (continuous and broken lines, bus lane, cycle lane, stop line, give-way triangle) and match each to the rule it enforces

  • Explain the meaning of traffic-light combinations including flashing yellow and the green-arrow signal

  • Complete 60 timed mixed questions on rules and signals with at least 85% accuracy

Your checkpoint

A scored 60-question timed test with a written correction note for every wrong answer

Week 3

Traffic rules and regulations (KRESZ) & Traffic signs, signals and road markings

  • Explain right-of-way and behaviour rules for pedestrians, cyclists and horse-drawn or agricultural vehicles at crossings and junctions

  • Describe the rules for level crossings, tram priority and railway signals

  • Classify 30 signs by their legal obligation (warning, prohibition, mandatory, information, priority) without looking at notes

  • Ride or drive a familiar route and narrate aloud every sign and marking you pass for 15 minutes

Your checkpoint

A 15-minute recorded commentary ride (or written route log) naming at least 25 signs and markings and the correct action for each

Week 4

Hazard perception and situational awareness & Traffic rules and regulations (KRESZ)

  • Scan for and describe ten typical hazard scenarios (dooring, blind junction, wet tram rails, gravel on a bend, oncoming overtaking) and state the correct avoidance action for each

  • Calculate stopping distance at 30, 50 and 80 km/h and explain how wet or gravel surfaces change the result

  • Identify the three most common accident causes for motorcyclists in urban Hungarian traffic and describe a countermeasure for each

  • Answer 40 hazard-perception scenario questions and justify each choice aloud

Your checkpoint

A hazard journal of ten scenarios, each with a sketch, the correct response and the KRESZ rule that applies

Week 5

Motorcycle vehicle knowledge and riding technique & Safe riding and protective equipment

  • Perform and document a pre-ride check (tyres, brakes, chain, lights, fluids, controls) using the ABC or POWDER routine

  • Explain how countersteering, trail braking and cornering lines work and describe the correct body position for a wet-road bend

  • List the legal and practical requirements for a Hungarian-approved helmet, gloves, jacket, boots and high-visibility clothing

  • Describe how alcohol, fatigue and cold affect reaction time on a motorcycle and state the legal alcohol limit for riders in Hungary

Your checkpoint

A completed pre-ride checklist performed on a real or borrowed motorcycle, signed and dated, plus a 10-point protective-equipment list with the reason for each item

Week 6

First aid and emergency response & Documentation, legal responsibilities and penalties

  • Demonstrate the DRABC sequence and the correct recovery position on a training dummy or volunteer

  • Explain how to control severe bleeding, treat a suspected spinal injury and remove a helmet safely after a motorcycle crash

  • Describe the Hungarian emergency call procedure (112), what information to give and what to do until help arrives

  • List the documents a rider must carry (jogosítvány, forgalmi engedély, kötelező biztosítás, műszaki vizsga) and explain the penalties for riding without them

Your checkpoint

A written first-aid and emergency action card you could keep in your jacket, plus a completed 20-question first-aid and legal quiz

Week 7

Traffic rules and regulations (KRESZ) & Hazard perception and situational awareness & Motorcycle vehicle knowledge and riding technique

  • Complete two full-length mock exams under timed conditions and score at least 90% on both

  • Review every missed question and re-study the underlying rule until you can explain it without notes

  • Ride two practice sessions of at least 45 minutes each, deliberately practising one weak hazard or technique area per session

  • Explain the point system (büntetőpontok) and the consequences of repeated offences on a motorcycle licence

Your checkpoint

Two scored mock exams with a written review sheet showing the rule behind every error and the score trend between the two attempts

Week 8

Environmental awareness and eco-riding & Traffic signs, signals and road markings & Documentation, legal responsibilities and penalties

  • Describe eco-riding techniques (smooth throttle, early gear changes, correct tyre pressure, avoiding unnecessary idling) and estimate their effect on fuel use

  • Re-run a 60-question sign and marking test and reach 95% accuracy

  • Confirm your test appointment, required documents and the exam format, and list what to bring on the day

  • Take one final full mock exam and review only the remaining weak areas

Your checkpoint

A final mock-exam score of at least 95% plus a one-page exam-day checklist covering documents, appointment details and your three weakest topics with fixes
