Theory insights

The driving theory gives many rules equal space. The tests do not. Two rules can look equally important as you read, but one of them is tested far more often and is also misunderstood by a great many students. That does not show in the theory text, but it does show in the test data.

Over nearly 20 years online, millions of practice tests have been taken. With AI, we can now read all the anonymous answer data in depth and see where students get stuck and which traffic rules are difficult.

All insights are edited and fact-checked by us. You will find them at the bottom of each theory chapter. Below are a few examples.

Stop & park

In this chapter, many students have problems with LOCKED CONTENT. Questions that look very similar on the surface differ dramatically in their pass rates. LOCKED CONTENT, sometimes several layers deep, are what makes the difference. A concrete example: it is prohibited to stop at LOCKED CONTENT

The single hardest question, however, is about something else: a LOCKED CONTENT, where the difficulty is working out LOCKED CONTENT without being confused by the fact that LOCKED CONTENT are not counted. Be careful to distinguish between LOCKED CONTENT and you will avoid that trap in the tests.

Overtaking

There is one specific question in this chapter that causes problems for a great many students. It involves students inventing a prohibition that does not exist – more precisely, they answer that overtaking is always prohibited in LOCKED CONTENT. This is probably a mix-up with LOCKED CONTENT.

The area with the most mistakes, however, is overtaking at pedestrian crossings. The students’ basic assumption that it is prohibited is sound, but the law gives specific exceptions that are important to keep track of. Most points are lost if you miss a simple but important detail about the bullet points with the conditions, namely that LOCKED CONTENT.

Priority rules

The data shows a clear pattern: LOCKED CONTENT is the area that the most mistakes can be linked to. Specifically, students miss LOCKED CONTENT. Students also make simpler mistakes, such as not paying attention to LOCKED CONTENT. Fixing that last point is the easiest way to pick up a lot of points here: so make sure you really do LOCKED CONTENT.

A common mistake is not paying attention to the unusual rule that says LOCKED CONTENT. Scroll up and read the LOCKED CONTENT again.
