NaTIS Code 2 Learner study guide

NaTIS Code 2 Learner · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.

The Code 2 learner's licence is the entry-level Namibian driving credential for people who want to learn to drive a light motor vehicle - a car or light van - under supervision before taking the Code 2 driver's test. It is issued through the NaTIS system, and the learner theory test is a computer-based, multiple-choice exam taken at a NaTIS office. The NaTIS Code 2 Learner study guide has 7 sections and about 2,934 words.

01

Road signs, signals and road markings

This domain tests whether you can read the road before you reach it: recognising each sign family, obeying traffic signals correctly - including when they fail - and interpreting painted markings. Exam questions mix sign descriptions with "what must you do" scenarios, so learn the meaning and the required action.

02

Rules of the road and right of way

Questions here describe a traffic situation and ask who moves first, where you may overtake, or what is illegal. The foundation is simple - South Africa drives on the left - but the marks come from applying that precisely under pressure.

03

Vehicle controls, vehicle condition and pre-trip checks

This domain tests two things: that you can operate each control smoothly and know what it does, and that you can inspect a vehicle and decide whether it is fit to drive. Practical candidates are marked on the cockpit drill and on spotting faults during the pre-trip inspection.

04

Safe driving techniques, following distance and speed management

This domain tests the arithmetic of safety: how much road you need to stop, how far back to sit, and how to choose a speed that fits the conditions rather than the sign. Pick a fixed object ahead - a pole or road marking.

05

Hazard awareness, defensive driving and emergency handling

This domain asks what you saw, what you predicted and what you did. Defensive driving means assuming other road users will make mistakes and always leaving yourself a way out.

06

Alcohol, drugs, fatigue and fitness to drive

Questions test the legal limits, how alcohol and drugs actually affect driving, and whether you can recognise when you or a passenger should not be behind the wheel. Ordinary drivers: 0.05 g per 100 ml of blood , or 0.24 mg per 1 000 ml of breath.

Accidents, documentation and NaTIS licensing requirements

This domain covers what to do at the scene of a crash and the paperwork that keeps you legal: licences, vehicle registration, and the NaTIS system that records them. Switch off, switch on hazards, and place a warning triangle roughly 45 m behind the vehicle - further on a fast road.
