Transport Malta Driving Theory Test · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
Transport Malta's driving theory test is the knowledge step you must clear before you can take the practical driving test for a Maltese driving licence. It is aimed at learner drivers and riders: first-time candidates, people adding a category such as A or BE, and holders of foreign licences who need a Maltese one. The Transport Malta Driving Theory Test study guide has 6 sections and about 2,258 words.
01Road Signs and Road Markings
This domain tests whether you can read a sign or marking at a glance and turn it into the correct action, not merely name it. Transport Malta's Code of the Road groups signs by shape and colour, and the exam reuses that logic heavily, so learning the system beats memorising pictures.
439 words, about 2 min02Traffic Laws and Regulations
This domain tests the rules that decide who goes first, how fast you may go, and under what conditions you may drive. Malta drives on the left, and every priority rule in the exam follows from that.
369 words, about 2 min03Safe Driving and Hazard Awareness
This domain tests whether you can read a developing situation and leave yourself room. Most marks are lost on following distance, speed choice and observation rather than on obscure facts.
377 words, about 2 min04Vehicle Safety and Maintenance
This domain tests the checks a driver is expected to make and the meaning of warning lights - the faults that cause real roadside breakdowns and roadworthiness failures. Tyres: legal minimum tread is 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the breadth and around the whole circumference.
348 words, about 2 min05Documents, Insurance and Penalties
This domain tests which papers must be valid, what insurance actually covers, and what follows when you drive without them. A valid driving licence for the category of vehicle being driven, carried or produced as required.
346 words, about 2 min06Emergency Procedures and First Aid
This domain tests a fixed, ordered response: protect the scene, call for help, then treat - and knowing what not to do. Stop, switch off the engine, hazard lights on.
