Poland Category AM Theory Test study plan

Poland Category AM Theory Test · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Traffic law and road signs & Rules of the road and safe driving

  • Identify and name every road-sign group used in the Polish theory test (warning, prohibition, order, information, supplementary plates) and state the correct action for each

  • Explain the priority hierarchy at unmarked junctions and apply the right-hand rule to ten written scenarios

  • Distinguish between mandatory, prohibitory and informative signals given by a traffic controller and by police officers

  • Recall the Polish speed limits for built-up areas, rural roads, motorways and expressways, including limits for AM-category vehicles

Your checkpoint

A hand-written one-page sign-and-priority cheat sheet covering at least 40 signs and all junction priority rules, self-tested with 20 written scenarios at 90% correct

Week 2

Traffic law and road signs & Rules of the road and safe driving

  • Apply right-of-way rules at marked and unmarked pedestrian crossings, including overtaking restrictions before crossings

  • Interpret horizontal road markings (solid, broken, double lines, bus lanes, cycle lanes) and match each to its legal meaning

  • Describe the rules for turning across oncoming traffic, roundabouts and priority roads in Polish law

  • State the legal obligations when approaching a railway level crossing, including the STOP sign and half-barrier rules

Your checkpoint

A 30-question self-made quiz on markings, crossings and roundabouts, answered with written justification for each answer and scored against the official sign catalogue

Week 3

Rules of the road and safe driving & Rider behaviour, hazard perception and risk awareness

  • Explain safe following distances at 30, 50 and 60 km/h using the two-second rule and the effect of wet or icy surfaces

  • Identify the legal blood-alcohol limits in Poland and the consequences of riding under the influence

  • List the situations in which overtaking is prohibited and justify each with the hazard it prevents

  • Recognise the main hazard categories (junctions, pedestrians stepping out, parked-car doors, wet tram rails, gravel, animals) and describe a defensive response to each

Your checkpoint

A hazard log of 25 real situations observed during daily travel, each with the hazard named, the defensive action taken and the legal rule that applied

Week 4

Moped and light quadricycle specifics (AM category) & Vehicle handling and technical knowledge

  • State the technical definition of a moped and a light quadricycle in Polish law (engine capacity, maximum design speed, mass, power) and the licence entitlements for each

  • Identify the mandatory equipment of a moped: lighting, mirrors, horn, brakes, tyres and the registration plate, and describe how each is checked before riding

  • Explain the effect of tyre pressure, tread depth and brake condition on stopping distance and stability

  • Describe how a moped's low mass and small wheels change behaviour on wet roads, in crosswinds and over potholes

Your checkpoint

A completed pre-ride checklist for a moped with at least 12 items, each with the legal minimum or recommended value and the consequence of riding with a defect

Week 5

Vehicle handling and technical knowledge & Rules of the road and safe driving

  • Explain how braking distance changes with speed, load and surface, and calculate stopping distance at 30 and 45 km/h on dry and wet asphalt

  • Describe correct cornering technique for a moped: entry speed, lean, throttle and braking distribution

  • Explain the risks of riding in the blind spot of cars and trucks and the correct lane positioning to stay visible

  • Describe what to do when a tyre punctures, the chain breaks or the brakes fail while riding

Your checkpoint

A written comparison table of stopping distances at four speeds and two surfaces, plus a one-page emergency-procedure sheet for three mechanical failures

Week 6

First aid and emergency response & Administrative and legal obligations of riders

  • Perform the correct sequence for a road crash scene: securing the site, warning other traffic, calling 112 and giving the location

  • Describe first aid for an unconscious but breathing casualty, for a non-breathing casualty (chest compressions) and for severe bleeding

  • Explain the legal duty to render assistance in Poland and the protection from liability when acting in good faith

  • List the documents and equipment a moped rider must carry and the legal consequences of riding without a valid licence, insurance or registration

Your checkpoint

A step-by-step emergency card (crash scene to handover to emergency services) with at least 15 ordered steps, plus a completed document checklist for an AM rider

Week 7

Rider behaviour, hazard perception and risk awareness & Administrative and legal obligations of riders

  • Analyse the most common causes of moped crashes in Poland and describe a specific countermeasure for each

  • Explain the point system for traffic offences, the rules on penalty points for AM riders and the conditions for regaining a licence

  • Describe the rules on carrying a passenger on a moped and the legal requirements for the passenger's helmet and seat

  • Apply the rules on riding in a built-up area at night, in rain and in heavy traffic to three written scenarios

Your checkpoint

A one-page summary of the penalty-point system and licence conditions for AM riders, checked against the current Polish road traffic act, plus five scenario answers scored by a peer or instructor

Week 8

Traffic law and road signs & Rules of the road and safe driving & Vehicle handling and technical knowledge & First aid and emergency response & Rider behaviour, hazard perception and risk awareness & Moped and light quadricycle specifics (AM category) & Administrative and legal obligations of riders

  • Complete two full mock theory tests under timed conditions and score at least 90% on each

  • Review every incorrect answer from the mock tests and write the correct rule and the reason for the error

  • Re-test the weakest three domains with 20 targeted questions each

  • Confirm test-day logistics: the official question format, the pass mark and the documents required at the test centre

Your checkpoint

Two completed timed mock tests with a written error log, a final score report showing at least 90% on both, and a confirmed test-day checklist

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 85% on a 30-question self-made test on traffic law and road signs, with written justification for every answer

Week 4: Explain the legal definitions of a moped and a light quadricycle and the AM licence entitlements without notes, and pass the 12-item pre-ride checklist unaided

Week 6: Demonstrate the crash-scene sequence in the correct order and list all mandatory AM rider documents and equipment from memory

Week 8: Score at least 90% on two timed mock theory tests and show a written error log covering every missed question
