Lebanon Driving Theory Test study plan
Lebanon Driving Theory Test · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 7 hours per week
Traffic signs, signals and road markings
Classify every warning, regulatory and priority sign category and state the required driver action for each without notes
Distinguish the meaning of solid, broken, double and coloured lane and edge markings and describe the legal action each permits or forbids
Interpret traffic-light configurations including flashing amber, arrow signals and pedestrian phases, and state who must yield in each case
Explain the role of a traffic officer's signals and rank them above lights and signs when they conflict
Your checkpoint
A self-made one-page sign-and-marking cheat sheet covering at least 40 signs and 10 marking types, scored at 90% or better on a 30-question self-quiz
Traffic signs, signals and road markings & Right-of-way and intersection rules
Identify unmarked and marked intersection types and state which vehicle has priority at each
Apply the priority-to-the-right rule and list the exceptions where signs, lights or a roundabout override it
Describe correct behaviour at roundabouts, including entry yielding, lane choice and exit signalling
Explain pedestrian crossing priority, including at zebra crossings and when turning across a footpath
Sequence the correct actions when approaching an intersection with restricted visibility
Your checkpoint
A written walkthrough of 10 intersection scenarios (sketched in text) naming the priority holder and the legal basis for each decision
Right-of-way and intersection rules & Speed limits and safe following distance
State the default urban and rural speed limits and the limits that apply near schools, hospitals and in residential zones
Calculate safe following distance using the two-second rule and adjust it for rain, night and heavy vehicles
Estimate stopping distance as thinking distance plus braking distance at 40, 60 and 90 km/h
Explain when driving below the posted limit is still too fast for conditions
Describe speed behaviour in tunnels, on mountain roads and in fog
Your checkpoint
A stopping-distance table for three speeds under dry and wet conditions, plus 10 solved following-distance word problems with correct answers
Overtaking, lane use and turning manoeuvres
List the conditions under which overtaking is prohibited and identify where the manoeuvre may legally begin and end
Describe the mirror-signal-manoeuvre sequence for overtaking a single vehicle and for returning to the lane
Explain lane discipline on multi-lane roads, including keeping right and when left-lane use is permitted
Sequence the correct procedure for right and left turns, including signalling, positioning and checking blind spots
Describe safe behaviour when being overtaken and when passing parked vehicles or cyclists
Your checkpoint
A step-by-step overtaking and turning checklist written from memory, validated against a 20-question practice set at 80% or better
Alcohol, drugs, fatigue and distracted driving & Hazard perception and defensive driving
State the legal blood-alcohol limit and describe how alcohol, prescription drugs and recreational drugs impair perception and reaction time
Identify the signs of driver fatigue and list the only reliable countermeasures versus ineffective ones
Categorise the main distractions (phone, navigation, passengers, eating) and state a prevention strategy for each
Scan for developing hazards in described scenes and rank them by the action they demand
Apply a defensive-driving routine such as observation, anticipation and space cushioning to at least five described situations
Your checkpoint
Five written hazard-perception scenarios, each with the hazard identified, the required response and the reaction window explained
Vehicle safety, lights, tyres and basic maintenance
Identify dashboard warning lights and state which require an immediate stop versus a service visit
Check tyre tread depth, pressure and sidewall condition and state the legal minimum tread
Describe how to verify lights, brakes, steering, coolant and oil before a journey
Explain the effect of worn tyres, faulty lights and misaligned headlights on safety and legality
Describe correct use of headlights, fog lights, hazard lights and indicators in poor visibility
Your checkpoint
A completed pre-journey vehicle checklist with measured tyre pressures and tread depths, plus a 15-item warning-light identification quiz at 100%
Accident procedures, first aid and emergency response & Lebanese traffic law, penalties and licence categories
Sequence the legal duties after a collision, including stopping, securing the scene, warning other traffic and exchanging details
Describe how to assess an unconscious casualty, check breathing and place them in the recovery position
Explain how to control bleeding, immobilise a suspected fracture and recognise shock
State the penalties for the main offences: drink-driving, speeding, using a phone, failing to stop and driving without insurance
Match licence categories and their restrictions to the vehicles they cover
Your checkpoint
A written accident-response and first-aid protocol in correct order, plus a penalty table covering at least eight offences with their sanctions
Documents, insurance and vehicle registration & Traffic signs, signals and road markings & Right-of-way and intersection rules
List the documents that must be carried or be valid when driving and state their renewal triggers
Explain compulsory third-party insurance cover versus optional cover and the consequences of driving uninsured
Describe vehicle registration and periodic inspection obligations and what invalidates them
Complete two full timed mock exams under test conditions and review every wrong answer
Re-drill the weakest sign and priority items until error rates fall below 10%
Your checkpoint
Two completed timed mock exams with a written error log and a final score of 85% or better on the second attempt
Milestones
Week 2: Score 90% or better on a 30-question signs-and-markings quiz and correctly resolve 10 intersection priority scenarios without consulting notes
Week 4: Pass a 25-question mixed quiz on right-of-way, speed, following distance, overtaking and turning at 80% or better
Week 6: Complete the pre-journey checklist unaided and score 100% on the warning-light quiz
Week 8: Score 85% or better on a full timed mock exam and show an error log covering every missed question
