Iraq Motorcycle Driving Theory · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Traffic Laws, Signs and Road Markings

  • Classify every Iraqi road sign category (warning, regulatory, prohibitory, mandatory, informational) and sketch three original examples of each from memory

  • Recite the meaning of the main road markings you will meet in urban and rural riding, including solid and broken lane lines, stop lines, and pedestrian crossings

  • State the default speed limits and the situations where they are lowered, and explain which signs override them

  • Describe right-of-way rules at unmarked junctions, roundabouts, and T-junctions without looking at notes

Your checkpoint

A hand-drawn one-page sign and marking cheat sheet covering at least 30 items, self-quizzed to 90% accuracy

Week 2

Traffic Laws, Signs and Road Markings & Licensing Rules, Documentation and Penalties

  • Explain the legal meaning and rider obligations attached to each traffic light phase, including flashing amber and arrow signals

  • List the documents a rider must carry and describe what each one proves during a roadside check

  • Identify the penalties attached to the most common riding offences such as running a red light, no helmet, and riding without a licence

  • Distinguish the rules for overtaking, lane discipline, and turning across oncoming traffic in built-up areas

Your checkpoint

A written 20-question self-test on signals, documents, and penalties, scored and with every wrong answer rewritten correctly

Week 3

Road Safety and Defensive Riding

  • Define the two-second following rule and practise judging it against a fixed roadside point at 30, 50, and 80 km/h

  • Explain the effect of wet, oily, and dusty surfaces on braking distance and adjust your riding plan for each

  • Describe the correct road position when approaching a blind bend, a crest, and a parked line of cars

  • List the specific hazards of riding in dense city traffic, including doors opening, pedestrians between vehicles, and sudden lane changes

  • Demonstrate hand signals and explain when they supplement or replace indicators

Your checkpoint

A written hazard log of 15 real situations you observed or rode through, each with the defensive action you took or would take

Week 4

Road Safety and Defensive Riding & Hazard Perception and Emergency Handling

  • Apply the see-think-do hazard routine to at least ten written scenarios and record the decision at each stage

  • Identify the three main causes of loss of control on a motorcycle and describe how to prevent each

  • Explain how to read the road surface ahead for gravel, standing water, painted lines, and metal covers

  • Describe safe behaviour at level crossings, roadworks, and temporary traffic arrangements

  • Rank a set of given hazards by the time and space you would have to react to each

Your checkpoint

A timed 30-question mock test on road safety and hazard perception, target score 85% or higher

Week 5

Hazard Perception and Emergency Handling & Motorcycle Vehicle Knowledge and Maintenance

  • Describe the correct sequence for emergency braking on a motorcycle and the conditions under which the front brake should be used more than the rear

  • Explain how to handle a front-wheel skid, a rear-wheel skid, and a locked wheel, and what to do if the bike begins to fall

  • Perform and document the pre-ride checks covering tyres, brakes, chain or belt, lights, mirrors, and fluid levels

  • Explain what tyre pressure, tread depth, and chain tension do to handling and stopping distance

  • Identify the early warning signs of brake fade, worn steering bearings, and failing suspension

Your checkpoint

A completed pre-ride inspection checklist filled in against an actual motorcycle, with every defect found noted and explained

Week 6

Motorcycle Vehicle Knowledge and Maintenance & Rider Protective Equipment and Visibility

  • Explain how a four-stroke engine, clutch, gearbox, and final drive work together well enough to describe what a slipping clutch or a jumping chain feels like

  • Diagnose five common breakdown symptoms from a written description and state the safe roadside action for each

  • List the components of approved rider protection and explain what each protects against in a fall

  • Justify helmet fit and fastening, and explain why an unfastened or damaged helmet offers little protection

  • Describe how to make yourself visible through clothing, reflectives, headlight use, and road position, including in low sun and at night

Your checkpoint

A two-part written summary: a fault-diagnosis table of five symptoms with causes and actions, plus a visibility and protection plan for day and night riding

Week 7

First Aid and Post-Collision Procedures

  • State the immediate steps at a collision scene in order, from securing the scene and calling for help to assessing casualties

  • Explain how to move a casualty only when there is immediate danger, and why spinal movement must be avoided

  • Describe how to control severe bleeding, treat for shock, and keep an unconscious but breathing casualty safe

  • Explain what to do and what not to do when a motorcycle helmet must be removed from an injured rider

  • List the details to record after a collision and the obligations that follow, including stopping, exchanging particulars, and reporting

Your checkpoint

A written first-aid and post-collision action card of no more than one page, recalled from memory and checked against your notes

Week 8

Traffic Laws, Signs and Road Markings & Road Safety and Defensive Riding & Motorcycle Vehicle Knowledge and Maintenance & Rider Protective Equipment and Visibility & Hazard Perception and Emergency Handling & First Aid and Post-Collision Procedures & Licensing Rules, Documentation and Penalties

  • Complete three full-length timed mock exams under exam conditions and record the score for each domain

  • Re-study only the domains where your mock scores fall below 85% and rewrite the missed questions in your own words

  • Recite the key rules, limits, and penalties from memory in a single 30-minute session

  • Review your week 1 cheat sheet, week 6 summary, and week 7 action card, correcting anything now known to be wrong

Your checkpoint

A final score sheet across three mock exams showing 90% or higher overall and no single domain below 85%

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 85% on the 20-question self-test on signals, documents, and penalties, and be able to name the document each check requires

Week 4: Score at least 85% on the 30-question road safety and hazard mock, and explain the see-think-do routine without notes

Week 6: Complete the pre-ride checklist unaided and correctly diagnose at least four of five written breakdown symptoms

Week 8: Achieve 90% or higher overall across three full mock exams with no domain below 85%
