Belgium Driving Theory Test (Category B) 2026: Practice test 6

1. Question 1 of 25

   What does this sign mean?

   • ACrossroads with priority to the right
   • BNo stopping
   • CHospital zone
   • DRailway crossing: trains have priority
   Show answer

   Answer: D. Railway crossing: trains have priority

   The red and white cross stands right at a level crossing. Trains always have priority, so stop if one is coming.

2. Question 2 of 25

   What does this sign mean?

   • AMinimum speed 50 km/h begins
   • BThe 50 km/h limit ends; the general limit for that road applies
   • CSpeed limit 50 km/h starts
   • DNo vehicles over 50 tonnes
   Show answer

   Answer: B. The 50 km/h limit ends; the general limit for that road applies

   The grey number with diagonal black stripes ends the limit shown. The normal limit for that type of road applies again.

3. Question 3 of 25

   The rear of your car starts to slide in a bend. What should you do?

   • ABrake as hard as you can
   • BEase off the accelerator and steer in the direction you want to go
   • CTurn the wheel sharply the other way
   • DAccelerate hard
   Show answer

   Answer: B. Ease off the accelerator and steer in the direction you want to go

   Look where you want to go, steer gently in that direction and lift off the accelerator. Do not brake hard.

4. Question 4 of 25

   Why is even a small amount of alcohol risky for drivers?

   • AIt makes people think they can still drive safely when they cannot
   • BIt makes people drive too slowly
   • CIt improves concentration for a short time
   • DIt only affects night vision
   Show answer

   Answer: A. It makes people think they can still drive safely when they cannot

   Alcohol weakens self-control: even a little makes people more likely to think they are fine to drive.

5. Question 5 of 25

   You see that you will need to slow down ahead. What is the most fuel-efficient way?

   • APut the gear lever in neutral and coast
   • BLift off the accelerator early and let the car slow down in gear
   • CKeep accelerating, then brake hard
   • DSwitch off the engine while moving
   Show answer

   Answer: B. Lift off the accelerator early and let the car slow down in gear

   Slowing in gear uses engine braking. Coasting in neutral, especially downhill, is dangerous and wastes fuel.

6. Question 6 of 25

   On a three-lane motorway in a country that requires an emergency corridor, where should the vehicles in the middle lane move when traffic stops?

   • ATo the left
   • BTo the right
   • COnto the hard shoulder
   • DStay exactly in the centre
   Show answer

   Answer: B. To the right

   Only the far-left lane moves left. The middle and right lanes move right, so the corridor forms left of the middle lane.

7. Question 7 of 25

   Some countries, such as Germany and Poland, require drivers to form an emergency corridor (rescue lane). When must you do this?

   • AAs soon as traffic slows to walking pace or stops, even before you hear sirens
   • BOnly when the police tell you
   • COnly when an ambulance is directly behind you
   • DOnly on roads with three or more lanes
   Show answer

   Answer: A. As soon as traffic slows to walking pace or stops, even before you hear sirens

   The corridor must be formed early so rescue vehicles can reach a crash quickly. Check the rules of each country you drive in.

8. Question 8 of 25

   You are dazzled by the headlights of an oncoming vehicle. What should you do?

   • ALook straight into the lights
   • BClose your eyes for a moment
   • CSlow down and look towards the right edge of the road
   • DSwitch to main beam to dazzle them back
   Show answer

   Answer: C. Slow down and look towards the right edge of the road

   Look down and to the right and follow the road edge. Dazzle can leave you nearly blind for several seconds.

9. Question 9 of 25

   An ambulance with blue flashing lights and a siren comes up behind you. What should you do?

   • ASpeed up to stay ahead of it
   • BIgnore it unless it uses the horn
   • CStop at once in the middle of the lane
   • DMake room for it, and stop if needed, while keeping others safe
   Show answer

   Answer: D. Make room for it, and stop if needed, while keeping others safe

   Vehicles on an emergency call using blue lights and a siren have priority. Move aside safely and let them pass.

10. Question 10 of 25

    • AOff the road, behind the safety barrier if there is one
    • BIn front of the car to wave at traffic
    • COn the hard shoulder next to the car
    • DInside the car with seat belts on

    • CMinimum speed 30 km/h
    • DRecommended speed 30 km/h
    Show answer

    A white number on a blue disc is a minimum speed. You must drive at least this fast unless conditions make it unsafe.

12. Question 12 of 25

    What does this sign mean?

    • AInformation point
    • BSpeed camera
    • COther danger; a plate below often explains it
    • DAccident blackspot: road closed
    Show answer

    • BOn a street with a parking sign
    • COn a pedestrian crossing
    • DIn a car park

    • AUse main beam to see further
    • BUse only parking lights
    • CUse your fog lights
    • DUse dipped beam so you do not dazzle the driver in front

    • CFlash your headlights
    • DSound your horn and keep your speed
    Show answer

    Answer: A. Slow down and be ready to stop, as they may run into the road

    Children are small, hard to see and can act suddenly. Reduce your speed near them.

    Where is overtaking especially dangerous and usually forbidden?

    • AOn a straight road with good visibility
    • BOn a motorway in the left lane
    • CAfter a sign ending a no-overtaking zone

    Never overtake where you cannot see enough clear road ahead, such as before a crest or a bend.

18. Question 18 of 25

    Which driving style saves the most fuel?

    • ADriving in the highest suitable gear at low engine speed
    • BDriving in a low gear at high engine speed
    • CChanging gear as late as possible
    • DAccelerating hard between traffic lights
    Show answer

    Answer: A. Driving in the highest suitable gear at low engine speed

    Use the longest gear you can at low revs. Shift up early after moving off.

19. Question 19 of 25

    You reach a level crossing marked only with a St Andrew's cross, without lights or barriers. What should you do?

    • AAssume the line is closed
    • BCross at speed, because there are no barriers
    • CStop on the tracks to look both ways
    • DSlow down, look and listen for trains, and cross only when it is safe
    Show answer

    Answer: D. Slow down, look and listen for trains, and cross only when it is safe

    At a passive crossing you must decide yourself when it is safe. Trains always have priority.

20. Question 20 of 25

    About how many pedestrians and cyclists survive being hit by a car at about 30 km/h, compared with about 50 km/h?

    • ANearly everyone at both speeds

    • CAbout 90% at 30 km/h, but only about 20% at 50 km/h
    • DAbout 50% at 30 km/h and 40% at 50 km/h
    Show answer

    Answer: C. About 90% at 30 km/h, but only about 20% at 50 km/h

    Small speed differences make a huge difference to survival. This is why many towns use 30 km/h limits.

    • CStop only if a pedestrian is crossing
    • DSound your horn and continue slowly
    Show answer

    Answer: A. Stop, because the officer's signals override lights and signs

    Signals from a police officer come before traffic lights, signs and the general rules.

    Why should you look twice for motorcycles at junctions?

    • AThey are small and their speed is hard to judge
    • BThey always have priority
    • CThey cannot use indicators
    • DThey are not allowed at junctions
