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

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
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
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

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