Jazan General Dept. of Traffic - Saudi Theory Mock Test 4

Q: How many questions is the Jazan General Dept. of Traffic light vehicle theory test?

The official General Dept. of Traffic light vehicle theory test in Jazan has 35 questions and you need 26 correct (75%) to pass. This practice test has 30 questions.

Q: Is this the real exam?

These are original practice questions to help you revise. They are not the official Saudi exam and the real question bank, format, fees and pass mark are set by the General Department of Traffic (Moroor) and the driving schools, and can change. Always confirm the current requirements with your driving school or the traffic department.

Q: Is this practice test free?

Yes. It is completely free, with no signup or payment, and you can retake it as many times as you like.

Q: What does the Jazan light vehicle theory test cover?

Road signs, traffic signals, right of way, roundabouts, speed limits, seat belts, penalties and safe-driving rules, plus the handling and safety topics specific to your vehicle.

Question 1

You are approaching speed humps in a school zone. A child is on the pavement near the humps. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Slow down significantly for the humps and be prepared to stop if the child steps onto the road. Speed humps in school zones require you to slow down. A child near the kerb may step unexpectedly onto the road. Be prepared to stop, give way, and only proceed when it is safe. Confirm with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Maintain your speed and cross the humps normally

Answer

Sound your horn to warn the child and proceed

Answer

Speed up to pass quickly before the child can react

Question 2

You are the first person to arrive at a collision where a vehicle has caught fire and a person is trapped inside. What is the priority order?

Accepted Answer

Call emergency services immediately (911), warn other traffic, and only attempt to free the trapped person if there is no immediate fire danger and you can do so safely. The correct answer is to call 911 immediately, warn traffic, and then help only if there is no immediate fire risk and it can be done safely. Moving a severely injured person without training can worsen injuries. Your own safety matters too. Confirm crash first-response procedures with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Photograph the scene first, then call emergency services, then attempt rescue

Answer

Attempt to free the trapped person at all costs before doing anything else

Answer

Wait for other motorists to help before taking any action

Question 3

A driver allows an unlicensed person to drive their vehicle in Saudi Arabia. Who is held responsible?

Accepted Answer

Both the vehicle owner and the unlicensed driver can face penalties; the owner for permitting an unlicensed person to drive. Under Saudi traffic law, the vehicle owner is responsible for ensuring that anyone who drives their vehicle holds a valid licence. Permitting an unlicensed person to drive is itself an offence by the owner. The unlicensed driver is also charged for driving without a licence. Both parties can face fines and the vehicle may be impounded.

Answer

Only the unlicensed driver is penalised; the owner bears no responsibility

Answer

Neither is penalised unless an accident occurs

Answer

Only the owner is penalised; the unlicensed driver cannot be charged as they hold no licence

Question 4

What does a double continuous yellow centre line on a Saudi road indicate?

Accepted Answer

Neither direction of traffic may cross or overtake across the line. The correct answer is that crossing is prohibited for traffic in both directions. A double solid yellow line is a stronger prohibition than a single solid line, indicating that overtaking or crossing the line poses a danger from both directions of traffic.

Answer

Only the vehicle on the left may overtake

Answer

The road is a two-way road with priority to the right

Answer

The line marks the edge of a bus lane

Question 5

A military convoy is moving with police escort vehicles fore and aft with flashing lights. You want to turn right across its path at a junction. What must you do?

Accepted Answer

Wait until the entire convoy and its escort vehicles have passed before turning. A military convoy with police escort must not be broken up. Wait until both the convoy and all escort vehicles have completely cleared the junction before making your turn. Do not enter any gap within the convoy. Confirm with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Insert yourself into the convoy gap and turn when clear

Answer

Turn as soon as the lead escort clears the junction

Answer

Flash your lights and the convoy must give way to you

Question 6

What is the main safety function of the headrest (head restraint) in your seat?

Accepted Answer

To limit rearward head movement and reduce whiplash injury in a rear-end collision. The correct answer is to limit rearward head movement and reduce whiplash injury. The restraint should be adjusted so its centre is level with the middle of the back of the head, and positioned as close to the head as is comfortable. An incorrectly set headrest offers little protection. Confirm headrest adjustment with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

To make long drives more comfortable

Answer

To prevent the driver from falling asleep

Answer

To support the neck when checking blind spots

Question 7

A commercial truck driver in Saudi Arabia is caught driving while using a mobile phone. Are the penalties the same as for a private car driver?

Accepted Answer

Commercial and heavy vehicle drivers may face stricter enforcement or higher fines given the greater danger posed by distracted driving of a large vehicle. Saudi traffic enforcement recognises that distracted driving of a large commercial vehicle poses proportionally greater risks due to the vehicle's size, weight and braking distance. Commercial and heavy vehicle drivers are subject to the same mobile phone ban and in practice may face more rigorous enforcement. The exact fine structure for commercial drivers can change, so confirm with Moroor via Absher.

Answer

The penalty is identical to that for a private car driver, with no distinction made

Answer

Commercial drivers are exempt from the mobile phone ban if the call is work-related

Answer

Commercial drivers are only fined if caught by a police officer, not by Saher cameras

Question 8

You are driving through an underpass (tunnel) and your vehicle breaks down. What must you NOT do?

Accepted Answer

Leave the vehicle stopped in a live traffic lane without warning devices. The correct answer (the action to avoid) is leaving the vehicle in a live lane without warning. A broken-down car in a tunnel with no warning devices is invisible to approaching drivers until it is too late. Move to the breakdown bay if one exists, activate all lights and hazards, and call for help immediately.

Answer

Switch on hazard lights and attempt to reach the nearest emergency exit

Answer

Call emergency services immediately

Answer

Warn following drivers by turning on all available lights

Question 9

You are approaching an unmarked crossroads at speed. What is the safest approach even before applying right-hand priority?

Accepted Answer

Reduce speed so that you can stop safely if another vehicle appears, then apply right-hand priority. Even if you have priority at an unmarked crossroads you must approach at a speed that allows you to stop safely. Other drivers may not yield, may not see you, or may misapply the rule. Speed reduction is always the first safeguard. Confirm with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Maintain your speed; you have priority if no one is to your right

Answer

Sound your horn to warn cross-traffic and proceed

Answer

Priority rules mean you never need to reduce speed at such junctions

Question 10

Before a long desert highway journey, which pre-trip check is most important to minimise breakdown risk?

Accepted Answer

Checking tyre condition and pressure, engine oil level, coolant level, brakes, and fuel with a spare for remote sections. The correct answer is a full pre-trip inspection covering tyres, oil, coolant, brakes, and fuel. In remote desert areas, a breakdown due to a preventable fault can be life-threatening in extreme heat. Carry a spare tyre, water, and basic tools. Confirm pre-trip safety standards with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Cleaning the windscreen and adjusting the radio presets

Answer

Only the fuel level; modern vehicles rarely break down

Answer

The air conditioning refrigerant level only

Question 11

A driver in Saudi Arabia has their licence suspended due to accumulated violations. How can the licence typically be reinstated?

Accepted Answer

By paying all outstanding fines, completing any required suspension period and in some cases passing a re-examination or a traffic safety course, as directed by Moroor. Reinstating a suspended Saudi driving licence requires the driver to clear all outstanding fines through Absher or Moroor, serve the full suspension period and, depending on the circumstances, complete a traffic safety awareness course or pass a re-examination. The process is managed through Moroor and Absher.

Answer

Licences reinstate automatically after 90 days with no action required from the driver

Answer

By obtaining a letter from the employer confirming the driver needs the licence for work

Answer

By applying to the courts for an emergency driving permit

Question 12

Saudi Arabia requires all vehicles to carry certain safety equipment. Which item from the list below is a mandatory basic requirement?

Accepted Answer

At least one reflective warning triangle. The correct answer is a reflective warning triangle. Saudi traffic regulations require vehicles to carry warning triangles for use in breakdowns and accidents. Additional equipment (fire extinguisher, first aid kit) may be required for commercial vehicles. Confirm current mandatory items with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

A fire extinguisher rated for class D fires

Answer

A full first-aid kit with a defibrillator

Answer

A spare fuel canister of at least 10 litres

Question 13

When should you signal when leaving a roundabout?

Accepted Answer

Signal left when entering if going past the first exit, then signal right just before your intended exit. Saudi roundabouts are driven counter-clockwise. If you are going past the first exit, signal left on entry while you circulate, then cancel it and signal right just before your intended exit. The right signal tells other road users and pedestrians that you are leaving. Confirm exact signalling conventions with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

You do not need to signal when leaving a roundabout

Answer

Signal left throughout your time in the roundabout

Answer

Signal right when entering all roundabouts

Question 14

You are driving at 120 km/h on the highway when the vehicle in front brakes sharply. If your reaction time is 1.5 seconds, approximately how far do you travel before you even begin braking?

Accepted Answer

About 50 metres. The correct answer is about 50 metres. At 120 km/h you cover 33.3 metres per second, so 1.5 seconds of reaction time means travelling approximately 50 metres before your foot touches the brake. Braking distance is additional. This illustrates why large following distances are essential at highway speeds. Confirm stopping-distance figures with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

About 20 metres

Answer

About 100 metres

Answer

About 10 metres

Question 15

What is the simplest and most reliable way for a driver in Saudi Arabia to stay informed about any new traffic fines registered against their vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Regularly checking the Absher government app or portal, which displays all violations linked to the driver's ID and vehicle in real time. Absher is the primary digital platform for Saudi government services and is the recommended tool for tracking traffic fines. Violations are linked electronically to the owner's National ID or Iqama and appear promptly in Absher. Regular checks allow drivers to pay fines early, avoid accumulated charges and prevent surprises at Istimara renewal time.

Answer

Waiting for a paper notice to arrive by post from the General Department of Traffic

Answer

Calling the Saher helpline weekly and asking for a verbal update

Answer

Checking only at the time of Istimara renewal once per year

Question 16

What does this sign mean?

Accepted Answer

Bring the vehicle to a complete stop before proceeding. The red octagonal STOP sign requires every driver to bring the vehicle to a complete stop at or before the stop line every single time, regardless of whether other traffic is present. It is the only sign in the GCC system with an octagonal shape, making it instantly recognisable. Confirm current enforcement requirements with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Give way to traffic on the main road

Answer

No entry for all vehicles

Answer

Traffic signals are ahead

Question 17

On a multi-lane road in Saudi Arabia, which lane should you normally use when not overtaking?

Accepted Answer

The rightmost lane available. The correct answer is the rightmost lane. Saudi traffic law requires drivers to keep to the right unless overtaking. Occupying a middle or left lane unnecessarily is an offence and obstructs other traffic.

Answer

The centre lane at all times

Answer

Any lane you find comfortable

Answer

The leftmost lane to stay away from junctions

Question 18

You arrive at an unmarked crossroads at the same time as another vehicle coming from your right. Who has priority?

Accepted Answer

The vehicle coming from your right has priority. At an unmarked crossroads with no signs or signals, you must give way to traffic approaching from your right. This right-hand priority rule applies when all roads are equal and no other rule overrides it. Always confirm with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor) for current local guidance.

Answer

The vehicle coming from your left has priority

Answer

The larger vehicle has priority

Answer

The vehicle travelling faster has priority

Question 19

What is the recommended minimum following distance behind the vehicle in front on a dry road at highway speeds?

Accepted Answer

At least 2 to 3 seconds. The correct answer is at least 2 to 3 seconds. This gap gives you time to perceive a hazard and bring your vehicle to a stop before reaching the vehicle ahead. Count the seconds as the vehicle in front passes a fixed point on the road. Always confirm current Saudi requirements with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

At least 1 second

Answer

At least 5 seconds

Answer

One car length for every 10 km/h of speed

Question 20

What is Saudi Arabia's policy on driving under the influence of alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Zero tolerance: any detectable alcohol is a serious criminal offence with severe penalties including arrest, jail and deportation for expatriates. Saudi Arabia enforces an absolute zero-tolerance policy on alcohol. The Kingdom prohibits alcohol entirely under Islamic law, so any driver found with alcohol in their system faces criminal prosecution, heavy fines, imprisonment and, for non-Saudi residents, deportation. There is no legal limit: any detectable amount is an offence.

Answer

A blood-alcohol limit of 0.05% applies, the same as most European countries

Answer

First-time offenders receive only a fine and a warning

Answer

Alcohol is only prohibited for Saudi nationals, not for expatriate residents

Question 21

What must you do when you see this sign?

Accepted Answer

Slow down and give way to traffic on the road you are joining. The downward-pointing triangle is the Give Way sign. You must slow down and yield to any vehicle or pedestrian on the road you are joining. Unlike a STOP sign, you do not always have to come to a complete halt, but you must be ready to stop if the road is not clear.

Answer

Stop completely every time, even when the road is clear

Answer

You have priority - continue without slowing

Answer

Sound your horn before entering the junction

Question 22

You are driving at normal speed on a three-lane expressway and you have just finished overtaking. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Return to the right lane as soon as it is safe. The correct answer is to return to the right lane as soon as it is safe. Saudi regulations follow the keep-right rule: the passing (left) lane is only for overtaking. Lingering in it after completing an overtake is illegal.

Answer

Stay in the middle lane so you can overtake again quickly

Answer

Move to the left lane for safety

Answer

Remain in your current lane until the next junction

Question 23

At an unmarked equal junction, three vehicles arrive at the same time from the north, east, and west (there is no vehicle from the south). Under the give-way-to-the-right rule, which vehicle has priority to go first?

Accepted Answer

The vehicle coming from the west, because it has no vehicle on its right. Give way to the vehicle on your right. The vehicle from the west is heading east, so its right side faces the empty south approach; with no one on its right it has priority and goes first. The vehicle from the north must give way to the west vehicle, and the vehicle from the east must give way to the north vehicle. Confirm the exact procedure with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

The vehicle coming from the north

Answer

The vehicle coming from the east

Answer

All three must stop and wait for a signal from another driver

Question 24

Under what conditions should you at least double your following distance to 6 seconds or more?

Accepted Answer

When driving in rain, fog, sandstorm, or when fatigued. The correct answer is when driving in rain, fog, sandstorm, or when fatigued. In these conditions your reaction time is longer and your brakes are less effective, so doubling the gap to 6 seconds or more gives a vital safety margin. Confirm current Saudi guidelines with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Only on gravel roads

Answer

Only when overtaking a truck

Answer

Only at night in a city

Question 25

An expatriate driver is convicted of a drink-driving offence in Saudi Arabia. Which additional consequence beyond fines and imprisonment is highly likely?

Accepted Answer

Deportation from the Kingdom. For expatriate residents, a drink-driving conviction routinely leads to deportation after serving any custodial sentence. Saudi Arabia treats alcohol-related offences as serious criminal matters, and immigration authorities typically cancel the residency permit (Iqama) of those convicted.

Answer

A compulsory defensive-driving course only

Answer

Community service and a warning letter to the employer

Answer

A temporary suspension of the driving licence for 30 days

Question 26

What does this sign tell you?

Accepted Answer

The maximum speed allowed is 40 km/h. A black number inside a red circle is a maximum speed-limit sign. Here the limit is 40 km/h. This limit is common in residential zones and near schools in Saudi Arabia. Driving above the posted limit is a traffic violation and can result in fines and black points.

Answer

The minimum speed on this road is 40 km/h

Answer

You are 40 km from the city centre

Answer

The speed limit applies only between 40-minute intervals

Question 27

Which of the following is the correct way to enter a roundabout in Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

Give way to vehicles already circulating inside the roundabout. The correct answer is to give way to traffic already inside the roundabout. Saudi traffic law requires drivers approaching a roundabout to yield to circulating vehicles before entering. Always check for gaps before proceeding.

Answer

Vehicles entering have priority over those already inside

Answer

Sound your horn and enter without stopping

Answer

Flash your headlights to warn drivers inside, then enter

Question 28

You are about to enter a roundabout. Traffic is already circulating inside. Who has priority?

Accepted Answer

Vehicles already circulating inside the roundabout have priority. Circulating traffic inside a roundabout has priority over vehicles trying to enter. You must give way and wait for a safe gap before entering. Confirm with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor), as some older roundabouts in Saudi Arabia may have different signage.

Answer

Vehicles entering the roundabout have priority

Answer

The vehicle to your right at the entry has priority

Answer

Both vehicles have equal priority

Question 29

At 100 km/h on a dry road, approximately how far does a typical car travel from the moment the driver sees a hazard to the moment the car stops completely?

Accepted Answer

Around 100 to 120 metres. The correct answer is around 100 to 120 metres. Total stopping distance combines thinking distance (the distance covered while you react) and braking distance (the distance covered while brakes slow the car). At 100 km/h both distances are substantial. Always confirm exact figures with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor).

Answer

Around 70 to 80 metres

Answer

Around 20 to 30 metres

Answer

Around 200 metres

Question 30

A driver is caught using a hand-held mobile phone while driving on a Saudi road. What type of penalty does this attract?

Accepted Answer

A traffic fine and recorded violation points against the driving licence. Using a hand-held mobile phone while driving is prohibited under Saudi traffic law. The offence results in a monetary fine and violation points on the licence. Exact fine amounts can change, so confirm the current schedule with the General Department of Traffic (Moroor) via Absher.

Answer

Only a verbal warning from the traffic officer

Answer

Immediate vehicle impoundment for 30 days

Answer

A criminal prosecution identical to a reckless driving charge
