Other Types Of Vehicle Practice Questions
About This Topic
These questions cover sharing the road with vehicles that behave differently from your own: lorries that swing out at corners, buses pulling away from stops, trams, caravans and slow-moving agricultural vehicles. Knowing their blind spots and turning circles tells you where not to be.
What the DVSA tests here
- Why long vehicles straddle lanes at roundabouts and junctions
- Overtaking high-sided vehicles safely in wind and spray

Practising this topic
You can work through 17 questions covering other types of vehicle, with an explanation after every answer to reinforce the rule being tested. The motorcycle theory test blends every topic into a single 50-question paper — you need 43 correct answers to pass, so weak areas are quickly exposed. Once your score settles above the pass threshold, move on to a timed mock test to check the topic holds up under exam pressure.
In the run-up to test day
Riders tend to do best when book study and saddle time reinforce each other, so try to review this topic soon after a lesson or CBT session while the experience is fresh. The Highway Code remains the primary source for every answer, and the official questions rarely stray far from it. As test day approaches, move on to full 50-question mock papers under the 57-minute time limit — they show whether a topic genuinely holds up once it is mixed in with all the others.
