Traffic Signs and Signals
Classify every Jordanian regulatory sign by shape and colour, stating the required driver action for each category.
Recite the meaning and required response for each warning sign type, including pedestrian, school, curve, and animal-crossing signs.
Interpret traffic-light phases, flashing signals, and hand signals given by police officers directing traffic.
Explain how road works, temporary signs, and flaggers override permanent signs and markings.
Your checkpoint
Score at least 85% on a 40-question self-made signs-and-signals quiz, with every wrong answer rewritten as a one-line rule.
Traffic Signs and Signals & Road Markings and Lane Discipline
Match each lane marking (solid, broken, double, yellow, white) to its overtaking and lane-change permission.
Describe the meaning of stop lines, yield lines, zebra crossings, chevron areas, and box junctions.
Identify edge lines, hatched medians, and directional arrows and state how each constrains lane choice.
Combine a sign with its accompanying road marking and state the combined rule in one sentence.
Your checkpoint
Produce a one-page table of 15 sign-plus-marking combinations with the exact permitted and prohibited manoeuvre for each.
Right-of-Way and Intersection Rules
Apply the priority rules at uncontrolled intersections, T-junctions, and roundabouts in the correct order.
Determine right-of-way when turning across oncoming traffic, at pedestrian crossings, and when emerging from a driveway or private road.
Explain how emergency vehicles, buses leaving stops, and pedestrians already on a crossing change normal priority.
Resolve five written conflict scenarios by naming who yields, who proceeds, and why.
Your checkpoint
Write and correctly solve 10 priority scenarios, each with a one-sentence justification citing the rule applied.
Speed Limits and Safe Following Distance
State the default urban and rural speed limits and the limits for heavy vehicles, buses, and towing combinations.
Calculate safe following distance using the two-second rule and adjust it for rain, night, and heavy load.
Estimate total stopping distance at 40, 60, and 80 km/h and explain how reaction time and wet roads change it.
Identify zones where limits drop automatically, such as near schools, hospitals, and construction sites.
Your checkpoint
Pass a 20-question speed-and-distance quiz at 90% or better, including three stopping-distance calculations shown step by step.
Overtaking, Turning, and Parking Rules
List the conditions under which overtaking is prohibited and identify where it is legal on a two-lane rural road.
Sequence the correct steps for turning left and right, including mirror checks, signalling, and pedestrian observation.
Classify parking violations by type and state where parking, stopping, and waiting are each forbidden.
Explain the rules for overtaking cyclists, pedestrians, and slow-moving vehicles with safe lateral clearance.
Your checkpoint
Draft a checklist of 12 do-and-don't rules covering overtaking, turning, and parking, then self-test on 15 mixed questions.
Traffic Laws, Penalties, and Licensing
Map the licence categories, minimum ages, and the stages required to obtain and renew a Jordanian driving licence.
List the main penalty categories for speeding, using a phone, driving without a licence, and driving under the influence.
Explain the demerit or points system, how points accumulate, and what triggers suspension.
Describe the documents a driver must carry and the obligations after a collision, including reporting to the police.
Your checkpoint
Create a one-page licence-and-penalties reference sheet and score 80% or higher on a 25-question legal-rules test.
Vehicle Safety, Load, and Documentation & Hazard Perception and Safe Driving Behavior
Identify the legally required vehicle documents and safety equipment, including tyres, lights, triangle, and fire extinguisher.
State the load limits and securing rules for roof racks, trailers, and passenger loads.
Recognise high-risk hazards such as hidden driveways, parked-car doors, and blind crests, and describe the correct anticipatory response.
Explain fatigue, distraction, and alcohol effects on reaction time and describe countermeasures for each.
Your checkpoint
Complete a 15-item vehicle pre-drive checklist and a 20-question hazard-perception quiz, scoring at least 85%.
Emergency Situations and First Aid & Traffic Signs and Signals & Right-of-Way and Intersection Rules
Sequence the correct actions at a crash scene: securing the area, calling for help, and protecting casualties.
Describe basic first aid for bleeding, unconscious breathing casualties, and suspected spinal injury without moving them unnecessarily.
Explain how to handle a tyre blowout, brake failure, skidding, and aquaplaning without panic braking.
Run two full timed mock exams and review every error against its source domain.
Your checkpoint
Score 90% or higher on two full-length timed mock exams and submit an error log listing each mistake with the corrected rule.
