32 cards. Read the term and the definition here. The deck at the top of this page is optional.
- Red octagon sign
- A stop sign. You must come to a complete stop behind the line, yield to traffic on the priority road, and proceed only when the way is clear.
- Inverted triangle sign
- A give way (yield) sign. Slow down, be ready to stop, and give priority to traffic on the road you are joining or crossing.
- Yellow box junction rule
- Do not enter the box unless your exit is clear. The exception is a right turn blocked only by oncoming traffic, where you may wait inside the box.
- Solid white centre line
- A line you must not cross. Overtaking or turning across a solid white line is prohibited because the line marks a stretch where visibility or safety is restricted.
- Steady amber signal
- Stop unless you are so close that stopping would be unsafe. It warns that the red light is about to appear, so do not accelerate to beat it.
- Uncontrolled junction priority
- Where no signs or signals control a junction, yield to traffic approaching from your right. At a T-junction the road ending gives way to the through road.
- Roundabout entry rule
- Give way to traffic already circulating on the roundabout, approaching from your right. Enter only when there is a safe gap, then signal left to leave.
- Two-second following rule
- Stay at least two seconds behind the vehicle ahead in dry conditions. Double it to four seconds in rain, and increase it further at night or on gravel.
- Turning vehicle priority
- A vehicle turning right must give way to oncoming traffic going straight or turning left. Turning vehicles always yield to through traffic.
- Helmet fit test
- With the chin strap fastened, the shell should not shift, and the front should not lift when pushed up from the rear rim. A loose helmet offers little protection.
- Helmet replacement rule
- Replace a helmet after any impact that compresses the liner, and after about five years of normal use, because the protective foam degrades over time.
- Pillion passenger rules
- A pillion must sit astride on a proper seat with footrests, hold the rider or grab rail, wear a fastened helmet, and must not be an infant.
- Load security rule
- Any load must be securely fastened, must not obstruct lights, indicators, mirrors or controls, and must stay within the manufacturer's stated weight limit.
- Car blind spot check
- If you cannot see a car driver's mirrors, the driver cannot see you. Avoid riding alongside a car; stay behind or move well ahead.
- First rain hazard
- The first minutes of rain are the most slippery, because oil and dust float on the surface. Reduce speed and increase following distance until it washes away.
- Wet road grip hazards
- Painted markings, metal drain covers, tram rails and loose gravel lose grip when wet. Cross them upright, avoid braking on them, and keep the bike steady.
- Night riding beam rule
- Use dipped beam when following or meeting traffic. Use main beam only when there is no oncoming traffic and no vehicle directly ahead of you.
- T-CLOCS pre-ride check
- A pre-ride inspection: Tyres, Controls, Lights, Oil, Chassis, Stands. Check tyre pressure and tread, brake and clutch operation, and all lights before riding.
- Counter-steering principle
- At speed, push the handlebar on the side you want to turn toward. The motorcycle leans into the turn and follows the curve.
- Combined braking technique
- Apply both brakes together; the front brake provides most stopping power. On slippery surfaces, use the rear brake more gently to avoid a front-wheel skid.
- Cornering slow-in fast-out
- Reduce speed before the bend, look through the curve, and accelerate gently on the way out. Hard braking while leaned over risks a skid.
- Chain maintenance check
- Check chain tension and lubrication regularly. A slack or dry chain can jump the sprocket or snap, causing loss of drive or a locked rear wheel.
- Learner permit conditions
- A learner must hold a valid permit, display an L plate, be accompanied by a licensed driver, and must not ride on a motorway.
- Documents to carry
- Carry your driving licence, the vehicle registration book and a valid insurance certificate. Driving uninsured or without a licence is an offence.
- Zero alcohol rule
- Do not ride after drinking any alcohol. Even small amounts impair balance, coordination and reaction time, and driving under the influence is a serious offence.
- Fitness certificate requirement
- A vehicle must hold a valid fitness certificate and road tax where required. Expired documents can result in a fine and detention of the vehicle.
- DRABC assessment order
- Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation. Check the scene is safe, then assess the casualty in that order before starting CPR.
- CPR compression ratio
- Give 30 chest compressions at about 5-6 cm depth and 100-120 per minute, followed by 2 rescue breaths. Continue until help arrives.
- Helmet removal caution
- Do not remove a crashed motorcyclist's helmet unless it blocks the airway. Removing it can worsen a suspected neck or spine injury.
- Severe bleeding control
- Press firmly on the wound with a clean cloth or dressing, add layers if it soaks through, and elevate the limb if no fracture is suspected.
- Burn first aid
- Cool a burn with clean running water for at least 10 minutes. Do not apply ice, butter or ointments, and do not burst any blisters.
- Emergency number Pakistan
- Rescue 1122 is the emergency medical and rescue service in Pakistan. Call it first at a crash, after making the scene safe.
