Information about the Theory Test
You can start taking driving lessons before you take your theory test. However, you cannot apply for the practical driving test until you have passed the theory test.
What does the test cover?
The theory test is made up of two parts, the multiple choice part and the hazard perception part. The multiple choice part is delivered using a touch screen computer and mouse and the hazard perception part records your responses through the use of a computer mouse button.

You need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. If you pass one part and fail the other you will fail the whole test, and you will need to take both parts again. Relevant literatures are available to read during theory test revision time. Click here to view our recommended reading material.
PART ONE - Multiple Choice
Before the test starts you will be given instructions on how the test works. You can also choose to go through a practice session of the multiple choice questions to get used to the layout of the test. At the end of the practice session the real test will begin.
A question and several answer options will appear on-screen and you have to select the correct answer to the question by touching the screen. Some questions may require more than one answer.
You will be asked 50 questions in 57 minutes. You can navigate between questions and ‘flag’ questions that you want to come back to later in the test.
Pass mark required: 43/50
After the multiple choice part you can choose to have a break of up to three minutes before the hazard perception part starts.
