The most difficult questions of the 2024 KET tests
Question: Is overtaking allowed in this situation if the tractor is traveling at a speed of less than 30 km/h?
Possible answers:
- Prohibited
- Allowed
Explanation: Road signs take precedence over road markings when participating in traffic. The road sign "No overtaking" has the clarification that reads: "It is forbidden to overtake vehicles, except for single vehicles (single combinations of vehicles) traveling at a speed of less than 30 km/h".
With this in mind, drivers who catch up with really slow-moving farm or other machinery and drive in sections where there is not only a solid line of road markings, but also a "No overtaking" sign, should follow the signs with the right of way, which means that if they are convinced that it is really safe to overtake, they can overtake slow-moving vehicles even when crossing a solid line.
It MUST be noted that this exception only applies when a "No Bending" sign is in effect. If you see a solid line of road markings, but there is no such sign, even a very slow moving vehicle cannot overtake when there is a solid line. In such cases, the only way you can pass the slower moving person is if he pulls over and allows you to pass.
KET points:
1 Ave. 325. "Bending is prohibited". It is forbidden to overtake vehicles, except for single vehicles (single combinations of vehicles) traveling at a speed of less than 30 km/h.
1 Ave. 805. "Validity zone forward". Indicates the length of the zone of validity of the dangerous road section or other road signs with which it is used beyond the road sign.
Horizontal marking 1.1. - A narrow continuous line separates traffic flows in opposite directions and prohibits driving in the oncoming traffic lane on the marked road section; marks the edges of traffic lanes, sections of the carriageway into which entry is prohibited, the limits of vehicle parking spaces and the edge of the carriageway; at road sign no. 413 "Pedestrian and bicycle path" separates the part of the path intended for bicycle traffic from the part of the path intended for pedestrian traffic. Crossing this line is prohibited, except when it marks the edge of the carriageway or a parking space.
Where it goes wrong:
There are no known exceptions to the KET rules.
Question: You are approaching the indicated sign at a speed of 70 km/h. How will you behave?
Possible answers:
- You will brake.
- You take your foot off the accelerator.
- I won't change anything.
Explanation: The maximum speed allowed behind the sign is 70 km/h, so if you are approaching 70 km/h. speed, nothing needs to be changed.
KET point:
Road sign 329 - Limited speed (It is forbidden to drive faster (km/h) than indicated on the road sign)
Where it goes wrong:
You don't look at the given picture, so you don't understand which road sign you are approaching. Or the picture is visible, but the question is not read carefully and the speed is not known.
Question: The driver of which car must give way (the driver of the blue car turns around)?
Possible answers:
- Red.
- Blue
Explanation:
When turning at an intersection where traffic is regulated by a traffic light, the driver must give way to road users moving from other directions according to the permitted traffic signal.
Exception: the turning driver has the right of way only if the driver of another car turning to the right (whose trajectory the turning person crosses) has a prohibited red traffic light and a sign with a green arrow is attached (KET 76).
KET point:
163.1. When turning at an intersection where traffic is regulated by a traffic light, the driver must give way to road users moving from other directions according to the permitted traffic signal.
76. If a sign with a green arrow pointing to the right is attached at the intersection at the red traffic light, drivers are allowed to turn right and the prohibited traffic signal is on, but before entering the intersection they must stop in front of the road sign "Stop line" and (or) "Stop line", if there is none, in front of the pedestrian crossing, the traffic light and start driving again only after making sure that it is safe and will not disturb others vehicles and pedestrians whose direction of movement they cross.
Where it goes wrong:
There is no distinction between traffic lights with an "attached sign with a green arrow" and with a "green arrow in an additional section of the traffic light".
Question: How many carriageways does the road shown have?
Possible answers:
- 2
- 4
- 8
Explanation: The separation lane between oncoming traffic is visible, as well as the acceleration and deceleration lanes, which are at different levels. A total of four carriageways are to be counted.
KET point:

It is recommended to pass vehicles traveling slower in the same direction from the left.
Where it goes wrong:
Rules are misinterpreted. A careful reading makes it clear that "It is prohibited for vehicles <...> to overtake vehicles traveling in the same direction from the right <...> when driving on the curb, deceleration or acceleration lane".
The most difficult questions of the 2023 KET tests
Question: This road sign prohibits driving:
Possible answers:
- On mopeds.
- Motorcycles.
- Quad bikes.
- Powerful four-wheelers.
KET point:
1 Ave. 305. Road sign „Motorcycle traffic is prohibited." It is prohibited to ride motorcycles, except for service vehicles. Road sign requirements apply to tricycles, quadricycles, powerful quadricycles, heavy quadricycles and wheeled tractors of category T3b, which are made on the basis of a quadricycle structure and do not have a body (cab)).
Where it goes wrong:
Students often make mistakes by misunderstanding and interpreting road signs in their own way, especially those related to prohibitions and permits.
For example, a road sign "No Motorcycle Traffic" prohibits only motorcycles, but allows other vehicles.
Question: Which vehicles are not prohibited by this sign?
Possible answers:
- For motorcycles without a trailer.
- For bicycles and mopeds.
- For route transport.
- Prohibits traffic for all vehicles.
Explanation: A bicycle is not a motor vehicle, so this road sign is not valid for it either.
KET point:
KET 1 Ave. 303. Motor vehicle traffic is prohibited. The traffic of motor vehicles, tractors and self-propelled machines is prohibited, with the exception of mopeds, motorcycles without trailers, shuttle, service transport, vehicles marked with the distinguishing sign "Person with a disability" or a parking card of a person with a disability.
Where it goes wrong:
The road sign "Motor vehicle traffic is prohibited", it does not prohibit the movement of motorcycles without a trailer, bicycles, mopeds or shuttle transport, it only prohibits the movement of motor vehicles.
Misunderstanding road signs can lead to dangerous situations in various traffic conditions.
Question: Will the red car drive through the intersection in order?
Possible answers:
- Second.
- Fourth.
- The last one.
Explanation: The driver of the red car is on the side road, he will pass the intersection after passing the cars on the main road and the green car, because he is approaching from the right.
KET point:
154. At an intersection of non-equal roads, a driver driving on a side road must give way to vehicles approaching the intersection on the main road.
156. If the direction of the main road changes at the intersection, the drivers driving on the main road must follow the rules of driving through equal road intersections in relation to each other. Drivers driving on side roads must also follow these rules in relation to each other.
Question: In what order will the cars pass through the intersection?
Possible answers:
- Green, blue with white, red.
- Green, blue, white, red.
- Green, white, red, blue.
Explanation:
Note that it asks who will pass the intersection, and will not enter it.
The first one will go green because it's the only one on the main road. Then blue, because the only one no longer has an obstacle on the right, but will stop in the middle of the intersection to give way to the red car. Then the white one will go, because it also no longer has an obstacle from the right, then the red one, and finally the blue one.
KET points:
154. At an intersection of non-equivalent roads, a driver driving on a side road must give way to vehicles approaching the intersection on the main road.
157. When turning to the left (turning around), the driver must give way to vehicles traveling on the same road in the opposite direction directly or to the right, and at an intersection where overtaking is allowed - to overtaking vehicles.
Where it goes wrong:
It is misread that the question asks who will pass the intersection, not enter it
Question: The driver of which car must give way in order to change lanes?
Possible answers:
A white car.
Blue car.
KET point:
104. When changing lanes, the driver must give way to vehicles traveling in the same direction in the adjacent traffic lane. If vehicles traveling in the same direction change lanes together, the driver must give way to the vehicle on the right, except for the cases specified in Clause 112 of the Rules.
112. If there is an acceleration lane for entering the road, the driver must drive on it and merge into the traffic flow (change to the adjacent traffic lane), giving way to vehicles driving through it or moving to the deceleration lane.
Where it goes wrong:
When changing lanes, it is important to correctly understand the rights of way and give way to other road users. Often, students misinterpret these rules, which can lead to dangerous traffic situations.
Question: Who has the right of way on this stretch of road?
Possible answers:
- Yellow car.
- Green car.
Explanation: Since the driver of the green car wants to change lanes (the yellow one goes straight), he must give way.
KET point:
104. When changing lanes, the driver must give way to vehicles traveling in the same direction in the adjacent traffic lane. If vehicles traveling in the same direction change lanes together, the driver must give way to the vehicle on the right, except for the cases specified in Clause 112 of the Rules.
112. If there is an acceleration lane for entering the road, the driver must drive on it and merge into the traffic flow (change to the adjacent traffic lane), giving way to vehicles driving through it or moving to the deceleration lane.
Question: What is the maximum speed you can drive outside the settlement with 2 years of driving experience and driving a truck with a maximum weight of 2.5 tons?
Possible answers:
50 km/h
70 km/h
90 km/h
Explanation: Not in the settlement by cars with a maximum permissible mass of no more than 3.5 t speed of 90 km/h is allowed. The road sign is only valid for cars with a maximum permissible weight of more than 3.5 t.
KET point:
Road sign 329 - Limited speed (It is forbidden to drive faster (km/h) than indicated on the road sign)
Road sign 815 - Trucks (Road sign with the table "Trucks" is valid for trucks and their combinations with a maximum permissible weight of more than 3.5 tons)
KET 131 p. Driving outside settlements is allowed:
131.1. by passenger cars, trucks with a maximum permissible mass of no more than 3.5 t, motorcycles and tricycles on highways in the months of April-October - at a speed not exceeding 130 km/h, in the months of November-March - at a speed not exceeding 110 km/h, on highways in the months of April-October - at a speed not exceeding 120 km/h, in the months of November-March - at a speed not exceeding 110 at a speed of km/h, on roads with an asphalt or concrete surface - at a speed not exceeding 90 km/h, on other roads - at a speed not exceeding 70 km/h;
Where it goes wrong:
The main mistake in solving this question is reading the question incorrectly and carelessly, which leads to an incorrect answer to the question.
For example, this test question says about a truck with a maximum mass of 2.5 tons, not 3.5 tons. If you read the question incorrectly and carelessly, and if you don't notice that the question says about a truck with less tons, the question is answered incorrectly.

Test: Traffic order and driving through intersections
Section: Driving speed on various roads, influence of speed on safe traffic. Overtaking, overtaking, overtaking. Expediency and dangers of bending. Places where overtaking is prohibited, possible mistakes and consequences.
Question:
Drivers of which vehicles break the rules outside the settlement (everyone drives at a speed of 90 km/h)?
Possible answers:
- Bus (correct);
- Red car (correct);
- Overtaking car (correct).
Explanation:
The bus driver is driving at 90 km/h, even though the speed limit is only 80 km/h. The driver of the red car does not keep a safe distance, therefore he violates the KET. The driver of the black car is not allowed to overtake because there is a car approaching in the opposite lane.
KET points:
KET 136. Before starting to overtake, the driver must make sure that:
136.1. none of the drivers following him began to overtake him;
136.2. the driver of the vehicle driving ahead in the same traffic lane does not show the left turn signal;
136.3. the part of the traffic lane necessary for overtaking is free and will not obstruct oncoming vehicles;
136.4. when he finishes overtaking, he will be able to return to his lane without obstructing the overtaking vehicle;
136.5. when overtaking, a safe distance from the overtaking vehicle will be ensured.
KET 131.3. by buses on motorways - at a speed not exceeding 100 km/h, on highways - at a speed not exceeding 90 km/h, on roads with asphalt or concrete surface - at a speed not exceeding 80 km/h, on other roads - at a speed not exceeding 70 km/h;
KET 126. The driver, taking into account the speed, must keep such a distance as not to hit the vehicle in front if it were to brake, as well as leave such a gap from the side that the traffic is safe. It is recommended that the distance to the vehicle in front is not less than the distance covered in two seconds or not less than half of the speedometer reading converted to meters, for example, when the speed is 70 km/h, the distance must not be less than 35 m, unless the traffic conditions require otherwise. It is recommended that drivers of motor vehicles, tractors, self-propelled machines, when going around or overtaking cyclists, leave a lateral distance of at least 1.0 m between vehicles when the driving speed of motor vehicles, tractors, self-propelled machines does not exceed 50 km/h, and a lateral distance of at least 1.5 m when the speed of motor vehicles exceeds 50 km/h.
Where it goes wrong:
Most people correctly answer that you can't bend. Another part of those solving the test notices that the driver of the red car does not keep a safe distance. However, because the bus is going too fast, many people miss it.

Question:
In what order will the cars pass through the intersection?
Possible answers:
- Green, blue with white, red;
- Green, blue, white, red;
- Green, White, Red, Blue (correct);
- Green, red, white, blue.
Explanation:
The first one will go green because it's the only one on the main road. Then blue, because the only one no longer has an obstacle from the right, but will stop in the middle of the intersection to let the red car pass. Then the white one will go, because it also no longer has an obstacle from the right, then the red one, and finally the blue one.
Road signs:
KET - 154. At an intersection of non-equal roads, a driver driving on a side road must give way to vehicles approaching the intersection on the main road.
KET - 157. When turning to the left (turning around), the driver must give way to vehicles traveling on the same road in the opposite direction directly or to the right, and at the intersection where overtaking is allowed, also to overtaking vehicles.
Where it goes wrong:
A tilted intersection and an additional direction are confusing. In fact, everything is simple - first the car drives on the main road, then everyone follows the right-hand rule.

Is it possible to complete a bending maneuver through a solid line?
This question causes a lot of comments and discussions, so we present the correct answer and comments from us and the Ministry of Transport:
Will you be in violation of the KET if you start overtaking on a narrow dotted line, but finish overtaking once the solid line starts?
Answers:
1. You will break.
2. You will not hurt.
Answer 1 is correct. The driver must ensure that he can complete the overtaking maneuver before the solid line begins. In this situation, the driver will definitely not be able to return to his lane before the continuous line begins, so overtaking is prohibited.
We also present the explanation of this situation by the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Lithuania:
Road traffic rules, approved by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania in 2002 December 11 by resolution no. 1950 "On the Approval of Road Traffic Rules" (hereinafter - KET), paragraph 117 established that "... if there is a continuous horizontal marking line (single or double) separating the traffic lanes of opposite directions, the driver must drive to the right of it".
According to KET 3 Annex 1.1. subsection, "a narrow continuous line separates the traffic flows of opposite directions and prohibits driving in the oncoming traffic lane on the marked road section ... . Crossing this line is prohibited, except when it marks the edge of the carriageway or a parking space."
Other exceptions for crossing a solid line (for example, when completing an overtaking maneuver) are not provided for in the KET, so completing a turning maneuver while crossing a solid line is not acceptable from the point of view of traffic safety and does not comply with the listed provisions of the KET.
KET point 1.17 states that "arrows with a curved stem warn of approaching a narrowing of the carriageway or a continuous marking line 1.1 or 1.3, 1.10, which separates traffic flows in opposite directions."
Chapter XVI of KET "Overtaking and traffic in lanes", which regulates the procedure for overtaking vehicles (subsection 140.3), states that overtaking is prohibited on road sections where the road is poorly visible.
In our opinion, the driver of the vehicle must take all necessary precautions before performing the overtaking maneuver, must make sure that the maneuver will be performed without violating the requirements specified in points 136 and 140 of the KET, assess the visibility of the road (uphill, downhill, turn, etc.), the horizontal marking of the road (paragraphs 1.17 and 1.1 of Annex 3 of the KET) and the intensity of traffic. The overtaking maneuver must be performed only on a clearly visible stretch of road and after making sure that the completion of the overtaking will not interfere with other vehicles and will not violate KET requirements.

Correctly answered: 7233
Answered incorrectly: 15966
Test: Road signs, labeling and traffic regulation
Section: Classification, purpose, form, color, meaning, validity and construction of road signs. Driver caution.
Question:
Are you allowed to pass this sign?
Possible answers:
Yes, if you work in that area;
Not if you drive a car (correct);
Yes, if you drive a shuttle (correct);
Yes, if you drive a vehicle marked with a "Disabled" sign.
Explanation:
KET clearly states that the road sign "No entry" prohibits the entry of all vehicles, except shuttle transport. Neither working in that area, nor driving a car marked with the "Disabled" sign, does not invalidate the driving ban.
Where it goes wrong:
It is mixed with the road signs "No traffic" and "No motor vehicle traffic", the first of which does not prohibit the entry of disabled persons, and the second - also for service (working in that area) transport:
There is also a lot of mix-up, as the answers together include the statement "Yes if you drive a shuttle" and the negative "No if you drive a car", both of which are correct and should be marked.

Test: Road signs, labeling and traffic regulation
Section: Classification, purpose, form, color, meaning, validity and construction of road signs. Driver caution.
Question:
Which of the following traffic signs prohibit turning at an intersection, except for shuttle traffic?
Possible answers:
1;
2 (correct);
3;
4 (correct);
5.
Explanation:
Road sign 1 "Entering the road with a traffic lane for route transport" does not prohibit turning.
Road sign 2 "Go to the right" allows you to go only to the right, so U-turns are prohibited.
Road sign 3 "Entering the road with a traffic lane for route transport" does not prohibit turning.
Road sign 4 "No U-turn" does, of course, prohibit U-turns.
Road sign 5 "Entering a one-way road" does not prohibit turning around.
Where it goes wrong:
It is believed that if only route transport is allowed to drive in one direction at the intersection, turning around is also prohibited. It is also mistakenly considered that when approaching a one-way road, you cannot turn around at the intersection. In both cases, turning around is allowed.
Meanwhile, when you reach the 2nd sign, you are only allowed to drive to the right, so turning around is also prohibited. And sign 4 directly prohibits turning around.

Test: Traffic order and driving through intersections
Section: Rules for driving through even and uneven unregulated intersections.
Question:
In which directions is the car driver allowed to drive?
Possible answers:
To the left;
To the right (correct);
Turn left and turn around;
Driving is allowed in all directions.
Explanation:
The car is driving on a one-way road, so it cannot turn around, because it would be driving against the traffic. He can turn left only from the second (left) lane. The picture shows that the car is parked in the first lane (and not in the second, as it should be, counting from the right), so it cannot turn left in this situation either.
Road sign:
503. One-way traffic. A road or carriageway where vehicular traffic flows in one direction over its entire width.
KET point:
XIII - 106. Before turning to the right, to the left or turning (except for a turn to an intersection where traffic flows in a circle), the driver must first pull over to the appropriate edge of the carriageway intended for driving in that direction. Road signs and/or horizontal markings may replace this requirement.
Where it goes wrong:
It is thought that the car is parked on a two-way road, so it is noted that it is possible to turn left from this lane and turn around.

Question:
How should cyclists act when they are blinded by the headlights of an oncoming vehicle?
Possible answers:
Do not enter another traffic lane (correct);
Slow down (correct);
Stop when necessary (correct);
Drive without slowing down.
Explanation:
The same rules apply to a bicycle as to a car: if the car in front is blinding, the bicycle driver must not enter the other traffic lane, slow down and stop if necessary.
KET point:
XII - 96. A dazzled driver must turn on the emergency light alarm and slow down before entering the next lane, and stop if necessary.
Where it goes wrong:
The thinking is that a bicycle has different rules in this situation than a dazzled car driver. The only difference is that the bike does not have an emergency alarm to activate in this situation.

Section: Rules for driving through even and uneven unregulated intersections. Possible errors and a threat to traffic safety.
Question:
Is the yellow car allowed to pass the intersection first?
Possible answers:
Allowed if he moved first (correct);
Allowed if missed by the driver of the red car (correct);
It is allowed if it is missed by the driver of the green car.
Explanation:
This is a rare situation in reality. All cars parked at the intersection have the same right of way, but if they all drive together, they would cause a traffic accident. Therefore, priority is given to the one who simply starts the ride first (by decision or if he misses him).
KET point:
III - 4. The behavior of road users is based on mutual respect and caution. 155. At the intersection of roads of equal value, the driver must give way to vehicles approaching from the right.
Where it goes wrong:
It is not clear why the yellow car has priority. In fact, all cars parked at this intersection have priority. And who will go first depends simply on who moves first or who misses what.

Question:
What should a driver do if he notices an approaching car with activated special sound signals and a blue beacon?
Possible answers:
Stop on the right side of the road, and when there is none - on the right side of the carriageway on a road where there are no more than 4 lanes for traffic in both directions (correct).
To stop on a road with a dividing lane to pass a car approaching in the same direction (correct).
Stop on the road with a dividing lane to pass a car approaching in the opposite direction.
Stop to pass a car on a road with more than 4 lanes of traffic in both directions.
Explanation:
When driving special transport with activated beacons and special sound signals, it is necessary to stop on the right side of the road or at the right edge of the carriageway. However, this only applies to roads with a maximum of 4 lanes in each direction. Also, if the road has a dividing lane, it is not necessary to pass a special vehicle approaching in the opposite direction.
KET point:
III - 12. Road users must immediately give way to approaching special vehicles with activated blue and red (or only blue beacons) and special sound signals and their accompanying vehicles. Drivers of vehicles on roads where there are no more than 4 lanes for traffic in both directions must stop on the right side of the road, when there is none, at the right edge of the carriageway (on roads with a dividing lane, only vehicles moving in the same direction must stop).
Where it goes wrong:
It is considered necessary to stop on the side of the road even when the road has more than 4 traffic lanes. In addition, it is mistakenly believed that on roads with a dividing lane, you need to pass and stop a special vehicle approaching in the opposite direction.

Question:
Towing is prohibited:
Possible answers:
Metal cable
After placing a part of the towed vehicle on the trolley (correct);
2 meter long rigid towbar;
Flexible with a drag across the scapula (correct).
Explanation:
You can only tow through the ice with a rigid tow truck, because cars can easily collide when towing with a flexible one. It is forbidden to tow a part of the towed vehicle on the trolley.
KET points:
XXVIII - 215. The length of the flexible tow must be from 4 m to 6 m, it must be marked with brightly colored flags (panels) or must be brightly colored and not narrower than 50 mm. Rigid towing must not be longer than 4 years.
XXVIII - 217. Towing is prohibited:
217.2. flexibly tow a vehicle if at least part of the roadway is covered with snow or ice, as well as a vehicle whose main brakes are broken;
217.10. after placing a part of the towed vehicle on the trolley.
Where it goes wrong:
The answer is as if the question is "towing is allowed:". It is also mistakenly believed that it is permissible to tow a part of a towed car on a trolley. If the car is transported on a trolley, all wheels must be on it.

Question:
Are both cars allowed to drive together?
Possible answers:
Allowed;
Prohibited because the blue car must pass the red car (correct);
Not allowed because the red car must pass the blue car;
It is allowed if the red car turns into the first lane at the roundabout.
Explanation:
The blue one must pass the red car because it is an obstacle to the blue car from the right (no matter which lane the red car will enter at the roundabout). There are no side road signs before the roundabout, so you have to follow the right-hand rule.
KET points:
XIII - 106. Before turning to the right, to the left or turning (except for a turn to an intersection where traffic flows in a circle), the driver must first pull over to the appropriate edge of the carriageway intended for driving in that direction. Road signs and/or horizontal markings may replace this requirement.
XVIII - 155. At the intersection of equal roads, the driver must give way to vehicles approaching from the right.
Where it goes wrong:
As most roundabouts are preceded by right-of-way signs, it is mistakenly assumed that a car entering the intersection must give way. However, if there are no signs, the right side rule is followed.

Question:
On which road should you stop on the right side of the road (if there is none - on the right edge of the carriageway) if a car with special blue or red lights and sound signals is approaching in your direction of travel?
Possible answers:
On a road where there are no more than four lanes of traffic in both directions (correct);
On a road with a dividing lane, when there are three traffic lanes in the direction of your movement;
On a road with two lanes in both directions (correct).
Explanation:
When driving special transport with activated beacons and special sound signals, it is necessary to stop on the right side of the road or at the right edge of the carriageway. This is only valid on roads with a maximum of 4 lanes in each direction. If the road has a dividing lane, there is no need to pass a special vehicle approaching in the opposite direction.
KET points:
III - 12. Road users must immediately give way to approaching special vehicles with activated blue and red (or only blue beacons) and special sound signals and their accompanying vehicles. Drivers of vehicles on roads where there are no more than 4 lanes for traffic in both directions must stop on the right side of the road, when there is none, at the right edge of the carriageway (on roads with a dividing lane, only vehicles moving in the same direction must stop).

Question:
The main causes of motorcycle skidding are:
Possible answers:
Strong and sudden braking (correct);
Excessive acceleration (correct);
Excessive lean during turns (correct);
Driving in the rain.
Explanation:
It's much easier to start sliding than to stop. Driving at the appropriate speed, anticipating hazards and braking in time will help prevent a skid or loss of vehicle control.
Where it goes wrong:
The rain itself is believed to be the cause of the slide. In fact, the sliding is influenced by too sudden braking, acceleration or maneuvering the steering wheel.

A four-wheeled vehicle with a maximum power of 4 kW (correct);
A four-wheeled vehicle with an unladen mass of 320 kg (correct).
Explanation:
A light quadricycle is a four-wheeled vehicle that:
design speed is 40 km/h
engine displacement is 50 cm³
the maximum power is 4 kW
mass without load is 320 kg
SEAKI point:
28. Light quadricycle - a four-wheeled motor vehicle, the mass of which (without battery batteries, if it is an electric motor-driven vehicle) without load does not exceed 350 kg, the maximum design speed does not exceed 45 km/h and the working volume of the engine does not exceed 50 cm3 (in the case of a spark (forced) ignition engine), the maximum useful power does not exceed 4 kW (in the case of another type of internal for a combustion engine), the maximum nominal power does not exceed 4 kW (in the case of an electric engine).
Where it goes wrong:
It is wrongly noted that the maximum speed of a light quad is 50 km/h and the displacement is 40 cm³. In fact, the maximum speed is 45 km/h, and the working volume is not more than 50 cm³. It is also forgotten that its maximum power is 4 kW and its weight is 320 kg.

Question:
Under normal driving conditions, you should brake:
Possible answers:
Applying the rear brake first, then the front (correct);
At the turn;
After depressing the clutch handle and engaging the front brake;
When the motorcycle is upright and moving in a straight line (correct).
Explanation:
The motorcycle is more stable in a vertical position and moving in a straight line. This is the best time to brake. Generally, both brakes should be used, applying the rear brake first (to stabilize the motorcycle) and then the front brake immediately (for more effective braking).
Where it goes wrong:
It is mistakenly believed that braking in a corner is safe. This can cause the motorcycle to start sliding sideways. Also, when braking, it is necessary to press the rear brake first, because when braking with the front brake, it is possible to lose stability or fall forward over the handlebars of the motorcycle.

Question:
What can happen if you brake hard with only the front brake while riding a motorcycle?
Possible answers:
The stopping distance will be longer (correct);
You can fall over (correct);
Front brakes can overheat and fail;
The front tire of the motorcycle will explode.
Explanation:
It is mandatory to brake the motorcycle with both brakes, this ensures a faster stopping. If we brake suddenly with only the front brakes, it is possible to overturn on the side or overturn.
Where it goes wrong:
It's a misconception that braking with just the front brake can cause front brake failure or a flat tire. Indeed, the brakes and tire will probably withstand such a load, but braking only with the front brake can significantly reduce the stability of the motorcycle.

Question:
It is very cold and the road looks wet. You should:
Possible answers:
Continue driving at the same speed;
Drive more slowly in the highest possible gear (correct);
Drive in the lowest possible gear.
Increase engine speed.
Explanation:
Freezing of precipitation water on the road is called slush. It can be difficult to see. Bald ice can be recognized by the fact that there is almost no tire noise and it becomes very easy to drive. You must reduce your speed and avoid sharp turns, braking and acceleration. Driving in as high a gear as possible will reduce the risk of wheel spin.
Where it goes wrong:
Contrary to popular belief, low gear and high RPM make the motorcycle less stable on ice. And by reducing the speed, it is possible to reduce the effect of the lateral inertia force, which can cause the motorcycle to start to be carried to the side.

Provides an opportunity to assess the environment during heavy traffic;
Protects against wind and rain;
The motorcycle is more visible.
Explanation:
Mirrors on both sides ensure a good view behind the motorcycle.
Where it goes wrong:
It is often noted that the mirrors on both sides of the motorcycle provide an opportunity to assess the environment in heavy traffic. However, this is an injustice because they only allow you to see the view behind the motorcycle and not the entire environment. It also does not protect against wind and rain, mirrors do not make the motorcycle more visible.

Question:
You should not drive with the clutch depressed for longer than necessary because it:
Possible answers:
Accelerates gearbox wear;
Increases fuel consumption;
Reduces your ability to control the motorcycle (correct);
Reduces tire adhesion to the road surface.
Explanation:
Driving with the clutch lever depressed is called coasting. It reduces the ability to control your driving and you can accelerate on your own. The motorcycle can accelerate quickly when going downhill. If you drive from inertia, then the engine will not be able to contribute to the braking.
Where it goes wrong:
It is commonly believed that releasing the clutch reduces the grip of the tires on the road surface. In fact, it reduces the stability and braking efficiency of the motorcycle.

Question:
Will the motorcycle driver pass through the intersection in order of priority?
Possible answers:
First (correct);
Second;
The third.
Explanation:
The driver of the purple car cannot drive through the intersection, because when turning left, he must pass the green car going straight in the opposite direction on the equivalent road. The motorcycle driver's arm is bent (he indicates that he is turning to the right), there are no obstacles.
KET points:
XI - 84. The signal for turning to the right corresponds to the right hand extended to the side or the left hand extended to the side and bent perpendicularly upwards at the elbow.
XVIII - 155. At the intersection of equal roads, the driver must give way to vehicles approaching from the right.
Where it goes wrong:
The raised left arm of the rider is misleading. A motorcyclist is considered to be showing a left turn signal. Indeed, if the arm is bent at the elbow, the rider intends to turn to the right.

What is the most effective way to brake a motorcycle on dry roads?
Possible answers:
When braking with both brakes equally;
When braking with both brakes, pressing harder on the front brake;
Using the rear brake, then the front brake (correct);
When braking with both brakes, press harder on the rear brake.
Explanation:
Starts braking with the rear brake. Gently, without blocking. In this way, the weight starts to be transferred from the rear to the front, the springs of the front shock absorbers are lightly compressed, thus stabilizing the motorcycle and preventing the rear wheel from lifting. A little while after applying the rear brake, the front brake is applied.
Where it goes wrong:
It's a misconception that braking with just the front brake can cause front brake failure or a flat tire. Indeed, the brakes are designed to withstand such a load, but braking only with the front brake can significantly reduce the stability of the motorcycle.

b) transfer the engine torque to the transmission;
c) disconnect the engine from the transmission when switching gears;
d) reduce the rotational oscillations transmitted by the engine crankshaft to the transmission;
e) protect the motor from overloads.
Where it goes wrong:
If we are driving downhill, releasing the clutch may not reduce, but may do the opposite: increase the speed of the car. In this case, a more efficient way is to engage a lower gear and apply additional braking with the brake pedal.
It is not safe to drive with the clutch engaged, so it is only intended to briefly disconnect the engine from the transmission: e.g. when braking or shifting gears.

KET XXVII - 208. The load in the vehicle must be placed and, if necessary, secured and covered in such a way that:
208.1. would not impair the driver's visibility;
208.2. would not damage the stability of the vehicle and would not interfere with its driving; 208.3. uncovered external light devices, light reflectors, license plate signs, distinctive signs and signals;
208.4. would not fall, drag, make noise, pollute the road and the environment; 208.5. would not pose a danger to people or material values, would not damage road facilities and technical traffic regulation measures.
KET XXVII - 209. If the position and condition of the cargo in the vehicle does not meet the requirements of point 208 of the Rules, the driver must immediately eliminate the deficiencies, and if this cannot be done, stop driving.
Where it goes wrong:
It is considered that covering the light devices is not a serious violation of the requirements for the carriage of goods, and therefore it is allowed to drive. In fact, it is forbidden to continue driving, and it is possible only after removing the defect (by exposing the light devices).
The most difficult test questions of the IV quarter of 2016
The most effective way to prepare for the driving theory exam in "Regitra" - solve KET tests, for example, on the website https://www.ketbilietai.lt/en/ketbilietai-tests/. It is very good if each question has a related KET point, even better is an explanation. This helps to understand the Road Traffic Rules faster and prepare for the exam faster. Still, there are questions that are rarely answered correctly the first time. We selected them and asked professional driving instructors to comment.
The most difficult questions of category B
Question: An ambulance is approaching the intersection with its lights (blue and red) on. Do you have to give way?
Possible answers: You must; You don't have to.
Correct answer: You don't have to.
Explanation: Other cars must give way to special vehicles only when they have activated blue and red (or only blue) lights AND special sound signals. If a police car is ONLY with blue and red (or only blue) lights on, it has no priority.
Where it goes wrong: It is not known that it is necessary to pass special transport only when they are with activated special sound signals.
Question: You are transporting two nine-year-old children and their parents in your car. Who is responsible for ensuring that children wear seat belts?
Possible answers: I, as a driver; Children; Front seat passenger; Parents of children.
Correct answer: Me as a driver.
Explanation: The driver is responsible for ensuring that both adults and children wear seat belts.
Where it goes wrong: In practice, older children take care of fastening their seat belts themselves, while young children are usually fastened by the adults sitting closest to them. However, according to the KET rules, the driver must make sure that the children are fastened, and only then start driving.
Question: Who must give way in the situation shown? (cyclist turns left)
Possible answers: Car driver; Cyclist.
Correct answer: Car driver.
Explanation: In this situation, you just have to follow the right side rule. Since the cyclist does not have an obstacle on the right side, he goes first.
Where it goes wrong: It is common that a car has more rights on the road than a bicycle. However, in this situation, both vehicles are equivalent (because they both travel on equivalent roads), so the bicycle goes first.
Question: Who is allowed to drive in the shuttle lane that is marked with the symbol 4+ together with the letter "A"?
Possible answers: For cars carrying 3 or more passengers; For bicycles and mopeds; For cars carrying 4 or more road users; For cars with 3 or more road users.
Correct answers: For cars carrying 3 or more passengers; For bicycles and mopeds; For passenger cars with 4 or more passengers.
Explanation: According to KET, bicycles and mopeds are allowed in the A lane. If the lane is marked with the symbol 4+, it can be used by a car with 4 or more road users.
Where it goes wrong: Firstly, it is simply not often known that the A lane is also suitable for bicycles and mopeds. Second, it is ignored that the answers use two concepts: "passengers" and "traffic participants", which are not the same. Road users are all people sitting in a car, and passengers are everyone except the driver. Therefore, the lane marked with the 4+ symbol can be used by passenger cars carrying 3 or more passengers or 4 or more road users (including the driver). Therefore, the answer "For passenger cars with 3 or more road users." does not fit here anymore.
Question: In what order will the vehicles go through the intersection (the white car has a green traffic light)?
Possible answers: Brown combined with green, white; Green, brown, white; White, brown together with green.
Correct answer: White, brown together with green.
Explanation: All cars have a green traffic light, but according to the KET, green and brown must pass the white car in front when turning left.
Where it goes wrong: Here, the inclined roads of the intersection are often confusing. To keep it simple, just imagine that both roads with cars are in one line.
Question: The driver of which car must give way?
Possible answers: The driver of the yellow car; The driver of the blue car.
Correct answer: The driver of the yellow car.
Explanation: Both cars are on the side road, so the yellow car has to give way because it has an obstacle on the right.
Where it goes wrong: There is no change in direction of the main road at this intersection, so the yellow is assumed to be on the main road.
Question: It is necessary to mark the vehicle with the "LT" sign:
Possible answers: Only when driving abroad, if the license plate does not have the abbreviation "LT"; Always; Not necessary.
Correct answer: Only when driving abroad, if the license plate does not have the abbreviation "LT".
Explanation: When driving abroad, it is not necessary to mark the vehicle with the sign "LT" if the abbreviation "LT" is on the license plate.
Where it goes wrong: Since "LT" stickers are often stuck on cars, it is thought that they are necessary when driving abroad. In fact, they are only necessary when the abbreviation "LT" is not on the license plate, for example, on old cars.
Question: Are you allowed to drive with winter tires during the summer season?
Possible answers: It is allowed, but they must be without spines; Prohibited.
Correct answer: It is allowed, but they must be without thorns
Explanation: In summer, it is forbidden to drive only with studded tires.
Where it goes wrong: It is mistakenly believed that it is forbidden to drive on winter tires in the summer. In fact, winter tires are allowed in summer, as long as they are not studded.
Question: In this case, is it mandatory to show the turn signal when exiting the roundabout?
Possible answers: Optional, as it is driven straight; Optional; Mandatory because you are exiting the roundabout.
Correct answer: Mandatory because you are exiting the roundabout.
Explanation: In this case, the exit is from an intersection where the action takes place in a circle, so it is necessary to show the turn.
Where it goes wrong: It is mistakenly assumed that the first lane does not belong to this roundabout. It actually owns all the lanes and the sign shows that it is indeed a roundabout. So, according to KET, it is necessary to show a turn when leaving it.
Question: Is the yellow car allowed to pass the intersection first?
Possible answers: Allowed if he moved first; It is allowed if it is missed by the driver of the red car; It is allowed if it is missed by the driver of the green car.
Correct answer: Allowed if he moved first; It is allowed if the driver of the red car passes it.
Explanation: This is a rare situation in reality. All cars parked at the intersection have the same right of way, but if they all drive together, they would cause a traffic accident. Therefore, priority is given to the one who simply starts the ride first (by decision or if he misses him).
Where it goes wrong: It is not clear why the yellow car has priority. In fact, all cars parked at this intersection have priority. And who will go first depends simply on who moves first.
Difficult test questions for categories A, A1, A2, AM
Question: Is a motorcycle passenger allowed to ride without a helmet?
Possible answers: Yes; No; Yes, if driving in the countryside; Yes, if you drive in the yards of apartment buildings.
Correct answer: No.
Explanation: It does not matter whether the motorcycle is being ridden on the highway, in the courtyards of apartment buildings, or somewhere else, both the driver and passengers must wear and fasten helmets.
Where it goes wrong: Because in reality you often see motorcycle passengers without helmets, which is not only prohibited according to the KET, but also very dangerous.
Question: On which side of the carriageway is it allowed to drive a motorcycle, moped?
Possible answers: At any edge of the carriageway; On the left edge of the carriageway in front of the direction of travel of vehicles; On the right edge of the carriageway and only in the direction of movement of vehicles; Motorcycles and mopeds are only allowed on sidewalks.
Correct answer: On the right edge of the carriageway and only in the direction of vehicle movement.
Explanation: Persons who ride in wheelchairs, drive a motorcycle, moped, bicycle, pull (push) a sledge or a wheelchair on the sidewalk or the edge of the carriageway must move only in one row and only in the direction of movement of vehicles.
Where it goes wrong: It is confused with pedestrians, who in such a situation have to go in front of the traffic. However, a person driving a motorcycle or moped is not considered a pedestrian.
Question: What conditions ensure better visibility when riding a motorcycle in the dark.
Possible answers: Helmet without protective glass; Clean protective glass of the helmet; The protective glass of the helmet is raised; Tinted protective glass of the helmet.
Correct answer: Clean protective glass of the helmet.
Explanation: Better visibility in the dark is ensured only by a clean protective helmet glass. Driving without glass or with the windshield up is worse because visibility is obstructed by wind, precipitation and everything else. The tinted protective glass of the helmet also reduces visibility.
Where it goes wrong: It is believed that when driving without a glass or with the glass raised, the road can be seen better. In fact, it's the opposite. Especially when driving with tinted glass.
Question: Riding a motorcycle is prohibited if:
Possible answers: Unfastened helmet; The helmet strap has no chin protection; The helmet has been used for more than 4 years.
Correct answer: Unfastened helmet.
Explanation: A motorcycle helmet may or may not have a neck brace, chin guard, or safety glass. The validity period of a motorcycle helmet is unlimited.
Where it goes wrong: The thinking is that the helmet has an expiration date, or that it must have a chin guard. In fact, it just has to be buttoned up.
Question: How do you go over an unexpected pothole on a motorcycle?
Possible answers: Holding the steering wheel straight; Maximum braking; Maximum braking and straight steering wheel; Try to avoid the obstacle with a sudden movement.
Correct answer: Holding the steering wheel straight.
Explanation: If the pit is seen right next to it, it is too late to try to avoid it. Attempting to go around can cause you to run dangerously off the road, and sudden braking can cause you to lose control of the motorcycle. Therefore, the correct answer is to simply keep the steering wheel straight.
Where it goes wrong: In such a situation, you instinctively want to brake or try to go around the pothole. However, this is only valid if you have seen it beforehand. If this happens suddenly, the safest way to avoid falling and losing control of the motorcycle is to not brake and keep the handlebars straight.
