Question 1Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

On a two-lane road in Pakistan, a solid white line runs along the centre. What does this marking tell a motorcyclist?

  1. The lane is reserved for slow-moving traffic
  2. Parking is permitted along the centre of the road
  3. Overtaking is allowed if the road ahead is clear
  4. Overtaking across the line is prohibited Correct answer.

Explanation

A continuous or solid centre line marks a section where crossing is forbidden because visibility or road geometry makes overtaking unsafe. A rider must stay on the correct side of it until the line becomes broken. Parking on the centre line is never allowed.

Question 2Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

You approach a broken white line down the middle of the road. What does it permit?

  1. Riding two abreast permanently
  2. Stopping to pick up passengers
  3. Driving on the right-hand side at all times
  4. Overtaking when the road ahead is clear Correct answer.

Explanation

A broken centre line means overtaking is permitted provided the rider has a clear view and enough space to complete the manoeuvre safely. The line is advisory rather than prohibitive. Riders must still return to the left side once past.

Question 3Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A traffic signal shows a steady red light. What must a motorcyclist do?

  1. Stop only if a police officer is present
  2. Slow down and proceed if no traffic is visible
  3. Stop behind the stop line and wait Correct answer.
  4. Sound the horn and continue

Explanation

A steady red light requires a complete stop before the stop line or crossing. The rider may proceed only when the signal changes to green. Treating red as a yield sign is a common and dangerous error.

Question 4Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

The amber light appears as you approach a signal at normal speed. What is the correct response?

  1. Accelerate hard to beat the red
  2. Reverse away from the junction
  3. Stop if you can do so safely before the line Correct answer.
  4. Continue at the same speed without checking

Explanation

Amber means the signal is about to turn red, so a rider should stop unless doing so would be unsafe, for example when already too close to stop smoothly. Accelerating to beat the light endangers crossing traffic.

Question 5Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A green light is showing but the junction ahead is blocked by stationary traffic. What should the rider do?

  1. Wait behind the stop line until the exit is clear Correct answer.
  2. Wave other drivers through and then follow
  3. Enter the junction and stop in the middle
  4. Use the footpath to bypass the queue

Explanation

Even on green, a rider should not enter a junction unless there is space to clear it. Stopping in the middle blocks cross traffic and can cause gridlock. Waiting behind the line keeps the junction usable.

Question 6Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A flashing amber light at a pedestrian crossing means what for a motorcyclist?

  1. Sound the horn to clear pedestrians
  2. Stop and wait until the light turns green
  3. Give way to pedestrians on the crossing Correct answer.
  4. Proceed at full speed as the crossing is closed

Explanation

A flashing amber at a pedestrian crossing signals that drivers must yield to anyone already on the crossing. Once the crossing is clear, the rider may proceed. It is not an instruction to stop indefinitely.

Question 7Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A red circle with a white horizontal bar across it is displayed on a sign. What does it indicate?

  1. No parking at any time
  2. No entry for vehicles Correct answer.
  3. One-way traffic begins
  4. End of a speed limit

Explanation

The red circle containing a white horizontal bar is the standard no-entry sign. It tells riders they must not proceed past the sign in that direction. It is commonly placed at the exit of one-way streets.

Question 8Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A circular sign with a red border shows the number 60. What does it mean?

  1. Maximum speed is 60 km/h Correct answer.
  2. Minimum speed is 60 km/h
  3. Distance to the next town is 60 km
  4. The road is 60 metres wide

Explanation

A red-bordered circle containing a number is a mandatory maximum speed limit, here 60 km/h. Riders must not exceed it even if conditions seem safe. Minimum speed limits use a blue circle instead.

Question 9Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A blue circular sign shows a white arrow pointing straight ahead. What does this require?

  1. Proceed straight ahead only Correct answer.
  2. Turn right ahead
  3. Overtake on the left
  4. Give way to oncoming traffic

Explanation

Blue circular signs are mandatory instructions. A white arrow pointing ahead means the rider must continue straight and may not turn at that point. Ignoring it can lead into a prohibited movement.

Question 10Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A triangular sign with a red border shows two children running. Where would a rider most likely encounter it?

  1. Near a school or playground Correct answer.
  2. Beside a railway crossing
  3. Outside a hospital
  4. At a motorway exit

Explanation

Triangular red-bordered signs are warnings. The children symbol warns of a place where children may be crossing, typically near schools, playgrounds or parks. Riders should reduce speed and be ready to stop.

Question 11Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a triangular warning sign showing a bicycle. What hazard should be anticipated?

  1. Cyclists may be crossing or sharing the road Correct answer.
  2. Cycling is banned beyond the sign
  3. A bicycle shop is ahead
  4. A cycle race is officially closed

Explanation

A bicycle symbol inside a warning triangle alerts riders that cyclists may enter or cross the carriageway. The correct response is to slow down and give cyclists room. It is a hazard warning, not a prohibition.

Question 12Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A red-bordered triangle shows a symbol of a road narrowing on both sides. What action is appropriate?

  1. Reduce speed and prepare for reduced space Correct answer.
  2. Move to the centre and hold the line
  3. Overtake any vehicle ahead immediately
  4. Increase speed to pass before the narrowing

Explanation

A road-narrows warning tells the rider that the carriageway ahead becomes narrower, so space to manoeuvre is reduced. Slowing down gives time to judge gaps and avoid squeezing other road users. Rushing through a narrowing is hazardous.

Question 13Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A circular blue sign shows a motorcycle symbol. What does it indicate?

  1. Route or lane intended for motorcycles Correct answer.
  2. Motorcycle parking only
  3. Motorcycles are prohibited
  4. Motorcycle taxis are permitted

Explanation

Blue circles carry mandatory instructions, and a motorcycle symbol indicates a route or lane designated for motorcycles. Riders should follow it where directed. Prohibition would be shown with a red circle and a diagonal slash.

Question 14Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a sign that reads GIVE WAY with an inverted triangle. What does it require?

  1. Stop completely for at least five seconds
  2. Yield to traffic on the main road before joining Correct answer.
  3. Proceed without checking if the road looks clear
  4. Take priority over traffic from the right

Explanation

A give-way sign requires the rider to yield to traffic already on the main carriageway before entering or crossing. A full stop is only mandatory at a STOP sign. Yielding means giving others priority, not simply slowing a little.

Question 15Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A stop line is painted across the lane together with a STOP sign. Where must the motorcycle come to rest?

  1. Before the stop line Correct answer.
  2. On top of the stop line
  3. Past the line inside the junction
  4. Wherever the rider prefers

Explanation

At a STOP sign the rider must bring the motorcycle to a complete halt before the stop line and only proceed when it is safe. Stopping on or beyond the line can encroach on the junction. The line marks the legal limit of the approach.

Question 16Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A yellow box junction marking is painted at a busy intersection. What is the rule for a motorcyclist?

  1. Use the box for parking briefly
  2. Stop inside the box to wait for a gap
  3. Treat the box as a normal lane
  4. Do not enter unless the exit is clear Correct answer.

Explanation

A yellow box junction is designed to keep the intersection clear. A rider may enter only if the exit road is clear enough to leave the box without stopping. Waiting inside the box blocks cross traffic.

Question 17Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A solid yellow line is painted along the edge of the carriageway. What does it normally indicate?

  1. The lane is for buses only
  2. Overtaking is encouraged
  3. Stopping and parking restrictions apply Correct answer.
  4. The road ends ahead

Explanation

Yellow edge lines in many systems signal parking and stopping controls along that side of the road. Riders should check nearby plates for times and exemptions. The marking restricts where the vehicle may be left, not how it is driven.

Question 18Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a broken yellow line on the rider's side of the centre and a solid yellow line on the other side. What does this mean?

  1. The rider must change lanes immediately
  2. The rider may overtake if it is safe Correct answer.
  3. Only buses may overtake
  4. The rider must never overtake

Explanation

Where the line nearest the rider is broken, overtaking is permitted when safe; the solid line applies to traffic on the opposite side. The broken line grants the permission on that side only. Riders must still judge visibility and space.

Question 19Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A sign shows a red circle with a motorcycle inside and a diagonal red slash. What is the effect?

  1. Motorcycles must switch on headlights
  2. Motorcycles may park here
  3. Motorcycles must use the left lane
  4. Motorcycles are prohibited from proceeding Correct answer.

Explanation

A red circle with a diagonal slash through a vehicle symbol is a prohibition sign. Here it bans motorcycles from continuing past the sign. Riders must find an alternative route.

Question 20Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a level crossing with a warning sign showing a gate or barrier. What is the safest action?

  1. Slow down, look both ways and stop if a train is approaching Correct answer.
  2. Speed across before the barrier lowers
  3. Weave around a lowered barrier
  4. Ignore the sign if the road looks clear

Explanation

Level crossing warnings require riders to reduce speed, look and listen for trains, and stop if one is coming. Barriers and lights must always be obeyed. Attempting to beat a train is extremely dangerous.

Question 21Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A blue rectangular sign shows a white letter P. What does it indicate?

  1. A police post is ahead
  2. Passing is not allowed
  3. Pedestrians are prohibited
  4. Parking is permitted in that area Correct answer.

Explanation

A blue rectangular sign with a white P marks a permitted parking area. Supplementary plates may show time limits or fees. Riders should check those plates before leaving the motorcycle.

Question 22Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a sign showing a horn with a red diagonal line through it. What is required?

  1. Do not use the horn in this area Correct answer.
  2. Sound the horn continuously
  3. Use the horn only at night
  4. The horn must be tested here

Explanation

A horn symbol crossed out in red indicates a no-horning zone, often near hospitals, schools or residential areas. Riders must avoid sounding the horn unless there is an immediate danger. The restriction protects people nearby from noise.

Question 23Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

At a signalised junction a rider wants to turn left. A green arrow pointing left is displayed alongside a red circle. What should the rider do?

  1. Turn left, yielding to pedestrians crossing that road Correct answer.
  2. Sound the horn and proceed straight
  3. Turn left only after the red changes to amber
  4. Wait for the full green circle before moving

Explanation

A green arrow authorises movement in the direction shown even while other aspects remain red. The rider may turn left but must still give way to pedestrians already crossing. The arrow applies only to that movement.

Question 24Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider is in a lane marked with a white bicycle symbol painted on the surface. What does the marking mean?

  1. The lane is for overtaking only
  2. The lane is closed to all traffic
  3. Motorcycles may park there
  4. The lane is designated for cyclists Correct answer.

Explanation

A bicycle symbol painted on the carriageway marks a cycle lane or cycle route. Motorcyclists should avoid occupying it unless permitted by local rules. Keeping out of it protects cyclists.

Question 25Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a triangular warning sign showing an exclamation mark. How should the rider respond?

  1. Assume the road is closed
  2. Stop immediately and abandon the route
  3. Ignore it because it carries no meaning
  4. Slow down and look for the specific hazard ahead Correct answer.

Explanation

A warning triangle with an exclamation mark indicates an unspecified hazard ahead. The rider should reduce speed and be prepared for anything from a sharp bend to roadworks. A supplementary plate often names the hazard.

Question 26Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a traffic signal showing a steady red circle with a green arrow pointing right. What does the signal permit the rider to do?

  1. Proceed only in the direction of the green arrow, after yielding to traffic already in the junction Correct answer.
  2. Stop completely and wait, because a red circle overrides any arrow shown with it
  3. Wait until the full green circle appears before moving in any direction
  4. Proceed straight ahead only, because the red circle applies to turning traffic

Explanation

A green arrow is a direction-specific permission: it allows movement only along the arrow while the red circle continues to hold back all other movements. The rider must still give way to vehicles and pedestrians already lawfully in the junction before turning.

Question 27Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A signal head displays a flashing red circle at a junction. What must a motorcyclist do?

  1. Continue through without slowing because flashing means caution only
  2. Treat it exactly like a steady green and keep the same speed
  3. Stop, then proceed only when it is safe, as at a give-way or stop condition Correct answer.
  4. Switch off the engine and wait for a police officer to wave the rider on

Explanation

A flashing red signal requires a full stop before entering the junction, after which the rider may proceed only when the way is clear. It is used where the normal signal has been switched to a special mode, so riders must not assume priority.

Question 28Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A traffic warden is standing in the road facing a rider with both arms raised horizontally. How should the rider respond?

  1. Stop and remain stopped until the warden's signal changes Correct answer.
  2. Sound the horn and proceed because the warden is not a police officer
  3. Continue past the warden slowly on either side
  4. Reverse away from the junction to clear the lane

Explanation

Arms raised horizontally toward approaching traffic is the standard manual signal for traffic to stop. A rider must obey the manual signal of a uniformed officer or authorised warden exactly as a red light.

Question 29Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a police officer at a junction with the right arm extended horizontally and the palm facing the rider. What does this mean?

  1. Traffic from that side may proceed slowly
  2. Traffic approaching from that side must stop Correct answer.
  3. The officer is about to wave traffic through from behind
  4. The officer is signalling a vehicle to pull over for a check

Explanation

An arm extended toward a stream of traffic with the palm presented is a stop signal for that stream. Riders must halt and wait for the officer's next signal rather than edging forward.

Question 30Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a pedestrian crossing where the signal shows a flashing amber globe instead of the usual red or green. What is the correct action?

  1. Proceed at normal speed because amber means the crossing is closed
  2. Give way to pedestrians on the crossing and proceed only when it is clear Correct answer.
  3. Stop and wait until a steady green appears
  4. Stop only if a pedestrian is already halfway across

Explanation

The flashing amber phase at a pedestrian crossing means pedestrians have priority but drivers may proceed once the crossing is clear. A rider should slow, check both directions and move off only when no one is on the crossing.

Question 31Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees an overhead lane signal showing a red diagonal cross above the lane. What does it require?

  1. Stop immediately in the lane and wait for it to change
  2. Use the lane only for overtaking
  3. Leave that lane, because it is closed to traffic Correct answer.
  4. Continue in the lane but reduce speed sharply

Explanation

A red diagonal cross over a lane means that lane is closed and must not be used. Riders should move to an open lane when it is safe rather than stopping in the closed lane.

Question 32Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

An overhead lane signal shows a green downward arrow above a rider's lane. What does this indicate?

  1. A hazard lies ahead and the lane will close shortly
  2. The lane is reserved for buses only
  3. The lane is open and the rider may use it Correct answer.
  4. The rider must change lanes at once

Explanation

A green downward arrow confirms the lane is open for normal traffic. It conveys permission to use the lane, not a warning of closure or a reservation for other vehicles.

Question 33Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a junction where a sign shows a red circle containing a white arrow curving to the left with a red slash across it. What does this mean?

  1. Turning left is prohibited at this junction Correct answer.
  2. The rider must turn left ahead
  3. Left turns are permitted only for buses
  4. A left-hand bend is approaching

Explanation

A red circle with a slash through a direction arrow is a prohibition sign: that manoeuvre is not allowed. Here the left turn is banned, so the rider must choose another route or turn.

Question 34Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a circular sign with a red border showing two vehicles side by side, one overtaking the other, with a red slash across the overtaking vehicle. What does it prohibit?

  1. Using the right-hand lane at any time
  2. Overtaking other motor vehicles on this stretch of road Correct answer.
  3. Carrying a pillion passenger
  4. Riding two abreast in a group

Explanation

The sign bans overtaking of motor vehicles, typically on stretches with limited visibility or narrow carriageway. A motorcyclist may still pass a pedal cycle or a stationary obstruction where it is safe and legal to do so.

Question 35Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a sign showing a red circle with the number 40 inside on a road where the national limit would otherwise apply. What is the effect?

  1. A maximum speed of 40 km/h applies from the sign onwards Correct answer.
  2. The 40 km/h limit applies only to heavy vehicles
  3. A minimum speed of 40 km/h applies
  4. The rider should ride at exactly 40 km/h

Explanation

A red-bordered circle with a number is a mandatory maximum speed limit in kilometres per hour. It applies to all motor vehicles on that road until a different limit or an end-of-limit sign appears.

Question 36Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider passes a circular white sign with a black diagonal band running through the number 60. What does this sign indicate?

  1. The road is closed to motorcycles beyond this point
  2. A 60 km/h limit begins here
  3. The previous 60 km/h restriction ends here Correct answer.
  4. A recommended speed of 60 km/h applies

Explanation

A white circle with a black diagonal band cancels the restriction it shows, so the 60 km/h limit no longer applies beyond the sign. The rider then follows the general limit for that road type.

Question 37Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A triangular warning sign shows a motorcycle with a wavy line beneath the wheels. What hazard should the rider anticipate?

  1. A steep downhill gradient ahead
  2. A compulsory motorcycle parking area
  3. A motorcycle-only route ahead
  4. A slippery road surface ahead Correct answer.

Explanation

The wavy skid symbol on a warning triangle warns of a slippery or skid-prone surface. A rider should reduce speed, avoid sudden braking or steering inputs and increase the following distance.

Question 38Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A triangular warning sign shows a single arrow bending sharply to the right. What does it warn of?

  1. A sharp right-hand bend ahead Correct answer.
  2. A right-hand lane merge
  3. A compulsory right turn ahead
  4. A roundabout ahead

Explanation

A triangular sign with a bending arrow warns of a bend in the road in the direction shown. The rider should adjust speed before the bend and keep to the correct side of the carriageway.

Question 39Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a triangular warning sign showing a hump-backed bridge. What is the appropriate response?

  1. Accelerate to clear the crest before oncoming traffic arrives
  2. Maintain speed because the sign is advisory only
  3. Reduce speed and be prepared for a blind crest with limited forward view Correct answer.
  4. Move to the centre of the road to improve the view

Explanation

A hump-backed bridge warning alerts riders to a steep rise that restricts forward visibility. Slowing down gives time to react if a vehicle or obstruction appears beyond the crest.

Question 40Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a triangular warning sign showing a tractor. What should the rider expect?

  1. The road surface becomes an unpaved track
  2. Slow-moving agricultural vehicles may be on or entering the road Correct answer.
  3. A farm produce market is located ahead
  4. Tractors are prohibited beyond the sign

Explanation

The tractor warning sign alerts riders to slow-moving agricultural traffic that may be crossing or turning into the road. Riders should be ready to slow and to overtake only when there is clear space and visibility.

Question 41Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A triangular warning sign shows a cross symbol over a railway track. What does it warn of?

  1. An unguarded level crossing ahead Correct answer.
  2. A bridge over a railway ahead
  3. A railway station entrance ahead
  4. A tram-only route ahead

Explanation

A warning triangle with a crossed track symbol indicates a level crossing without barriers or gates. Riders should slow, look both ways and be prepared to stop if a train is approaching.

Question 42Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider approaches a level crossing where a red light is flashing and the barrier is beginning to lower. What must the rider do?

  1. Stop before the barrier or stop line and wait until the crossing is clear Correct answer.
  2. Proceed if no train is visible in either direction
  3. Weave around the barrier before it descends fully
  4. Stop on the crossing itself and wait for the barrier to rise

Explanation

A flashing red light at a level crossing means stop and remain stopped until the lights cease and the barriers are fully raised. Never enter the crossing area while the warning is active, even if no train is in sight.

Question 43Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a blue circular sign showing a white arrow pointing down and to the left at a junction island. What does it require?

  1. Pass to the left of the island or obstruction Correct answer.
  2. Stop before the island
  3. Turn left at the next junction
  4. Give way to traffic from the left

Explanation

A blue circular keep-left sign directs traffic to pass on the specified side of an island, bollard or obstruction. It is a mandatory direction of movement, not a turn instruction.

Question 44Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a blue circular sign showing a white pedestrian symbol. What does it mean?

  1. Pedestrians have no priority on this road
  2. A route reserved for pedestrians, which motorcycles must not use Correct answer.
  3. A pedestrian crossing is 100 metres ahead
  4. Pedestrians must walk on the right-hand side

Explanation

Blue circular signs give mandatory instructions, and a pedestrian symbol means the route is for pedestrians only. A motorcyclist must not ride along it; a crossing warning would instead appear as a triangular sign.

Question 45Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a rectangular sign with a white background and a black diagonal stripe running from top left to bottom right. What does this sign mark?

  1. A one-way street begins
  2. A no-overtaking zone begins
  3. The national speed limit applies from this point Correct answer.
  4. A dual carriageway begins

Explanation

The national speed limit sign is a white rectangle with a black diagonal band, and it replaces a signed lower limit. The rider must then apply the national limit for that road and vehicle class.

Question 46Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a blue rectangular sign showing a white arrow pointing straight up with the word ONE WAY. What does it confirm?

  1. Traffic on that road flows only in the direction of the arrow Correct answer.
  2. The road has a single lane in each direction
  3. The road is reserved for buses
  4. The rider must turn back at the next junction

Explanation

A one-way sign confirms that all traffic on that carriageway moves in the arrow's direction. Riders must still keep to the correct lane and obey any lane markings or signals.

Question 47Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a broken white line painted along the centre of a two-way road. What does this marking normally permit?

  1. Overtaking at any time without restriction
  2. Parking along the centre of the road
  3. Driving on either side of the line as a permanent arrangement
  4. Overtaking when it is safe and the way ahead is clear Correct answer.

Explanation

A broken white centre line separates opposing streams and may be crossed to overtake when visibility and space allow. The rider must still judge each overtake on its own merits and return to the correct side.

Question 48Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a double solid white line along the centre of the road. What is the rule?

  1. Neither line may be crossed to overtake or change sides Correct answer.
  2. The lines may be crossed when the road is empty
  3. Either line may be crossed to overtake slow vehicles
  4. Only the nearer line may be crossed

Explanation

Double solid white centre lines prohibit crossing for overtaking or changing to the opposing side. They are used where visibility or road layout makes such a manoeuvre unsafe.

Question 49Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees a white line of short dashes painted across the entry to a side road, together with a broken line across the main road. What does this marking indicate?

  1. A give-way line where the rider must yield to traffic on the main road Correct answer.
  2. A stop line requiring a complete halt in all cases
  3. A bus stop clearway
  4. A pedestrian crossing boundary

Explanation

Broken transverse lines at a junction mark a give-way position where entering traffic must yield. A stop line, by contrast, is a continuous line and requires a full stop before proceeding.

Question 50Traffic Signs, Signals and Road Markings

A rider sees the word SLOW painted in large white letters on the approach to a hazard. What is the correct response?

  1. Sound the horn and continue at the same speed
  2. Stop immediately where the word is painted
  3. Reduce speed before reaching the hazard area Correct answer.
  4. Maintain speed because the marking is only a suggestion for cars

Explanation

Road markings reading SLOW reinforce a warning sign and call for a genuine reduction in speed before the hazard. Riders should ease off the throttle and cover the brakes rather than brake abruptly on the marking itself.
