NaTIS Code 2 Learner

It lets you drive a light motor vehicle on public roads while accompanied by a suitably licensed supervising driver, as required by Namibian rules. It is a learning permit, not a full licence: you still need to pass the driver's test to drive unsupervised.

You sit at a computer at a NaTIS office. Each question appears on screen with several answer options, and you select the one correct answer. There is no essay writing or oral questioning, so practise answering on a screen under light time pressure rather than only from a textbook.

Those are administrative settings that NaTIS can change, so no fixed figure should be trusted from a study guide. Check the current number of questions, time limit and pass mark with your local NaTIS office or the Roads Authority's official website before you book.

Most failures come from rushing signs that look similar or misreading a right-of-way scenario, not from obscure facts. If you can identify every sign and marking instantly and reason through an intersection calmly, the test is very manageable. Treat it as a recognition test, not a memory marathon.

Rewrites are normally possible, but the waiting period, fee and booking procedure are set by NaTIS and can change. Confirm the current retake rules at a NaTIS office when you book, and use the gap to drill the section you failed rather than rereading everything.

Start with road signs, signals and markings, then rules of the road and right of way - together they carry about half the paper and support everything else. Add vehicle controls and pre-trip checks, then safe driving and hazard awareness, and finish with alcohol, fatigue and accident documentation.

Confusing warning signs with regulatory ones, ignoring road markings when a sign is absent, choosing the polite option instead of the legal right-of-way answer, and guessing at following-distance figures. Another frequent error is memorising question wording rather than the underlying rule, which collapses when the question is phrased differently.

No. The vehicle section tests practical awareness: what the controls do, what to check before driving, tyre condition, lights and warning signs of a fault. You need to recognise a problem and know the safe response, not explain how an engine works.

Answer a full set without notes, mark every wrong or guessed answer, and write one line explaining why the correct option is right. Reread only those weak topics, then retest. Spacing sessions over several days beats one long cram, because sign recognition needs repetition.
