Jordan Driving Theory Heavy study plan

Memorize the meaning and required driver action for every Jordanian regulatory, warning and priority sign class, including the heavy-vehicle-specific prohibitions on mass, height, width and axle load.

Classify road markings by colour and shape (solid, broken, double, yellow kerb, hatched areas) and state whether each permits, forbids or requires an action for a truck.

Recite the statutory speed limits for rigid trucks, articulated combinations and buses on urban, rural and highway roads, plus the minimum following-distance rule.

Explain right-of-way and overtaking rules that apply differently to heavy vehicles, including banned overtaking zones and junction priorities.

Apply traffic-law rules to concrete heavy-vehicle scenarios: roundabouts with long vehicles, level crossings, tunnels and restricted urban access windows.

Demonstrate the four-second following rule and the extended stopping-distance calculation for a laden truck at 60, 80 and 90 km/h.

Identify and counter the main heavy-vehicle collision causes: blind spots, off-tracking, brake fade, load shift and fatigue.

Describe correct procedure for lane discipline, merging and being overtaken on descents and at junctions.

Perform and document a full pre-trip walk-around inspection covering tyres, lights, fluids, couplings, fifth wheel, air lines, mudguards and load restraints.

Explain the function and correct use of heavy-vehicle controls: splitter, range change, exhaust brake or retarder, differential lock and PTO where fitted.

Diagnose common handling faults from symptoms: pulling to one side, vibration, soft pedal, air-pressure loss and steering play.

Describe coupling and uncoupling sequences for tractor-trailer units in the correct order, including landing-leg and air-line checks.

Calculate gross vehicle mass, gross combination mass and individual axle loads from given kerb, payload and distribution figures.

Apply the load-securing principle of lashing capacity versus cargo weight, and select correct restraint method for rigid, bulk and fragile loads.

Explain how load placement changes axle loading, steering grip and braking balance, and identify overload and uneven-load warning signs.

Describe the layout and purpose of a dual-circuit air-brake system, the role of the compressor, governor, reservoirs and drain valves.

Interpret air-pressure gauge behaviour and warning signals, and state the correct response to low-pressure warnings and brake-fade symptoms.

Scan systematically for hazards using the mirror-signal-manoeuvre routine adapted for long vehicles, and rank hazards by risk in real time.

List the correct actions for brake failure, tyre blowout, jack-knife onset, load shift and runaway on a descent.

Describe the correct use of engine braking, retarders and emergency escape routes on long downgrades.

Explain the procedure after a collision or breakdown: warning triangles, hazard lights, passenger or public safety and notification.

State the daily driving limit, mandatory break after continuous driving, weekly and fortnightly limits, and the required daily and weekly rest periods for heavy-vehicle drivers.

Explain how to complete and retain a record of driving, work and rest, and list the penalties and consequences of exceeding hours.

Recognise the signs and causes of driver fatigue and list countermeasures that actually work versus those that do not.

Demonstrate first-aid priorities at a heavy-vehicle incident: scene safety, calling emergency services, bleeding control, airway and shock management.

Describe vehicle fire prevention, correct extinguisher selection and use, and evacuation of a bus or cab.

Apply fuel-efficient driving techniques: progressive gear use, anticipation, cruise control on suitable roads, correct tyre pressure and idle avoidance.

Explain how route planning, load consolidation and reduced idling cut fuel use and emissions on heavy vehicles.

List the documents a heavy-vehicle driver must carry and keep valid: driving licence category, vehicle registration, insurance, periodic inspection certificate and permits.

Explain licence categories, endorsements, medical fitness requirements and the consequences of driving without valid insurance or inspection.

Identify the environmental and legal impact of excessive noise, smoke and fluid leaks, and the driver's duty to report them.

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

Review every incorrect answer and map it to the specific domain and rule it tests.

Re-drill the two weakest domains with targeted question sets until accuracy exceeds 90%.

Recite from memory the critical numbers: speed limits, following distance, hours limits, air-pressure thresholds and weight limits.
