Driving Test Questions

The practice questions in this driving test are based on the content below:

When you’re driving and you need to make a U-turn at a roundabout, don’t simply rush in. First, signal that you’re turning right, then wait your turn by giving way to the cars already on the roundabout. If you’re curious about how things work, our site has a section about driving theory in the Bahamas that might help. Sometimes, on the road, you’ll have to stop because there’s a bus dropping off passengers. Always expect people to appear from behind it and cross the road. It’s basic knowledge for drivers, really.

Now, if you end up trying to pass someone and they’re not having it, just back off. Pulling back is much better than becoming aggressive–and making things worse. Keeping everyone safe on the road is of significant consequence, and we discuss how to successfully deal with overtaking on our radio show. Actually, the whole point of overtaking is to do it quickly and safely. You want to get past the other car and give them plenty of space. For the ins-and-outs of passing cars, look no further than our general driving theory test, online. Ever reached your turn-off, only to find it’s congested with cars that aren’t moving? Stay amazing and wait to let other drivers cross. We cover situations like this in our Bahamas driving theory test. See a “No Overtaking” sign? That’s there to tell you it’s too risky because you might not see oncoming traffic, there are a significant quotient of people around, or other reasons. We’ve got a breakdown of road signs in our traffic signs theory section if you need it.

Thinking of driving after a drink? The law says even a bit of alcohol can reel back your driving skills significantly. Crushing the myth that a tiny drink doesn’t impact driving is something we touch on concerning Bahama’s highway code. And, if you’re driving behind someone at night, make sure to dip your headlights. Blaring your brights into their car is a no-go. For more tips on what to do when driving after dark, you should really see our post on driving safely in the Bahamas at night. Going the right speed is really important for keeping it safe for everyone on the road. You’ll see speed limits are an enormous topic in the Bahamas driving theory test.

If ever you’re feeling sleepy while behind the wheel, the top advice is to pull over and take a quick power nap. It refreshes you enough to keep going. Need more data on dealing with tiredness? Our section on driver fatigue has got you covered.

Parking on a bustling street at night? Flip on your parking lights to let other drivers know where you are. It’s a simple thing–but it makes all the difference. Check our page for more tips on parking in the Bahamas.

Pedestrians and drivers are both at risk in the area…the numbers killed every year are pretty equal. Driving carefully around people walking is of the very highest importance, and we discuss this in our overview for the Bahama’s permit test.

Sharing the road is a two-way street. If you’re rolling slow, like on a bicycle or a farm vehicle, stick to the side so faster vehicles can zip past. For more on how to coexist peacefully on the road, delve into our general driving theory study guide. One golden rule? Never pass someone just to speed ahead of them for a left turn. It’s dangerous and, frankly, not intelligent and informed. It’s yet another thing drivers frequently get wrong on the Bahamas’ roads.

To round it all off, a discerning reader may begin to register these are not simply random components of advice. Or, in a very basic essence, they’ll understand it regards keeping everyone on the road safe, including yourself. Check us out for a more thorough take on driving rights and wrongs in the Bahamas.
