Free LLR Test Questions on Safe Driving, Helmets and Accidents

These questions cover safe driving habits that the LLR test loves to ask: alcohol, helmets, braking distance, fatigue and accident duties.

1. Who must wear a helmet on a two-wheeler?

  1. Only the rider
  2. Both the rider and the pillion rider ✔
  3. Only on highways
  4. Only at night

Correct answer: Both the rider and the pillion rider

Both rider and pillion must wear a protective helmet (BIS-certified) with the strap fastened. Sikh men wearing a turban are exempt. A loose or unfastened helmet can fly off in a crash.

💡 Tip: Strap fastened, every ride.

2. How many persons are allowed on a two-wheeler (motorcycle)?

  1. Rider plus one pillion ✔
  2. Rider plus two
  3. Only the rider
  4. Rider plus three

Correct answer: Rider plus one pillion

A motorcycle may carry the rider and one pillion rider. Carrying more than that is an offence called overloading and ruins the balance of the bike.

💡 Tip: Two on a two-wheeler.

3. In a car, seat belts must be worn by:

  1. Only the driver
  2. The driver and the front-seat passengers ✔
  3. Only passengers
  4. No one in the city

Correct answer: The driver and the front-seat passengers

The official test bank answer is "both the driver and the front-seat passengers". Belts stop you being thrown out of the car or into the windscreen. Rear passengers are also safer belted, and the 2019 amendment penalises passengers without belts too.

💡 Tip: Click it before you move.

4. The legal blood alcohol limit for drivers in India is:

  1. 0 mg per 100 ml
  2. 30 mg per 100 ml ✔
  3. 80 mg per 100 ml
  4. 100 mg per 100 ml

Correct answer: 30 mg per 100 ml

Section 185 of the Motor Vehicles Act makes it an offence to drive with more than 30 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. Even below this, alcohol slows reaction time, so the safest rule is not to drink and drive at all.

💡 Tip: If you drink, do not drive.

5. Using a hand-held mobile phone while driving is:

  1. Fine on empty roads
  2. Dangerous and an offence ✔
  3. Allowed for short calls
  4. Allowed in traffic jams

Correct answer: Dangerous and an offence

Even a few seconds looking at a phone means you cover many metres blind. It is an offence and one of the leading causes of distracted-driving accidents. If you must take a call, pull over safely first.

💡 Tip: Park first, talk later.

6. On a wet road, the stopping distance of a vehicle:

  1. Decreases
  2. Increases ✔
  3. Stays the same
  4. Depends only on the horn

Correct answer: Increases

Wet roads reduce tyre grip, so it takes longer to stop. Slow down earlier, brake gently, and keep a much larger gap from the vehicle in front.

💡 Tip: Wet = double the gap.

7. If you feel sleepy while driving, you should:

  1. Turn up the music
  2. Stop in a safe place and rest ✔
  3. Open the window and continue
  4. Drive faster to finish sooner

Correct answer: Stop in a safe place and rest

Tiredness can cause micro-sleeps of a few seconds at highway speed, which is enough to leave the road. Pull over in a safe place, take a short nap or break, and then continue.

💡 Tip: Rest saves lives.

8. After an accident involving an injured person, the driver should:

  1. Leave the spot immediately
  2. Stop, help the injured and inform the police ✔
  3. Hide the vehicle
  4. Only call the insurer

Correct answer: Stop, help the injured and inform the police

Section 134 requires the driver to take reasonable steps to help the injured person, including taking them to hospital, and to report the accident. Hit-and-run carries severe penalties. Good Samaritans who help are protected from harassment.

💡 Tip: Stop. Help. Report.

9. The horn should NOT be used:

  1. To warn of your approach
  2. In silence zones like hospitals and schools ✔
  3. On blind curves
  4. To alert a careless pedestrian

Correct answer: In silence zones like hospitals and schools

Silence zones near hospitals, schools and courts prohibit horns because noise harms patients and learning. Use the horn only when it prevents an accident.

💡 Tip: No horns in silence zones.

10. A safe following distance means:

  1. Staying as close as possible
  2. Keeping enough gap to stop safely if the vehicle ahead brakes ✔
  3. Following at the same speed with bumpers touching
  4. Staying one metre behind at any speed

Correct answer: Keeping enough gap to stop safely if the vehicle ahead brakes

You need time to notice, react and brake. A common guide is a gap of at least two to three seconds in dry conditions, and more at night or in rain. Tailgating is a leading cause of rear-end collisions.

💡 Tip: Two-second rule, more if wet.

11. Which of the following is a defensive driving habit?

  1. Tailgating
  2. Anticipating the mistakes of other road users ✔
  3. Racing at amber lights
  4. Weaving through traffic

Correct answer: Anticipating the mistakes of other road users

Defensive drivers look well ahead, keep a margin, and assume others may do the unexpected. This gives you time to react before a crash happens.

💡 Tip: Expect the unexpected.

12. Before starting a long journey you should check:

  1. Tyre pressure, brakes, lights and fuel ✔
  2. Only the radio
  3. Only the paint
  4. Nothing

Correct answer: Tyre pressure, brakes, lights and fuel

Worn tyres, weak brakes and faulty lights are common causes of breakdowns and crashes. A short check of tyres, brakes, lights, fuel, oil and coolant is worth the time.

💡 Tip: Check before you go.

13. If your vehicle starts to skid, you should:

  1. Brake hard
  2. Ease off the accelerator and steer gently in the direction of the skid ✔
  3. Accelerate
  4. Turn the steering sharply the other way

Correct answer: Ease off the accelerator and steer gently in the direction of the skid

Braking hard locks the wheels and makes the skid worse. Take your foot off the accelerator and steer smoothly in the direction you want to go.

💡 Tip: Gentle hands, gentle feet.

14. In fog, you should use:

  1. Dipped headlights or fog lamps ✔
  2. High beam
  3. No lights
  4. Hazard lights while driving

Correct answer: Dipped headlights or fog lamps

High beam reflects back off the fog and reduces visibility. Use low beam or fog lamps, slow down, and increase the following distance.

💡 Tip: Low beam in the mist.

15. When driving at night, you should:

  1. Drive at a speed that lets you stop within the distance you can see ✔
  2. Keep the cabin light on
  3. Use high beam always
  4. Drive faster as roads are empty

Correct answer: Drive at a speed that lets you stop within the distance you can see

Your headlights light only a limited distance. If you drive faster than you can stop in that distance, you will hit an obstacle you can see too late.

💡 Tip: Stop within what you can see.

16. If your brakes fail while driving, the best first action is to:

  1. Pump the brake pedal and shift to a lower gear ✔
  2. Switch off the engine at once
  3. Turn the steering to the right
  4. Speed up

Correct answer: Pump the brake pedal and shift to a lower gear

Pumping may build pressure. Shifting down uses the engine to slow you. Then use the handbrake gradually and steer away from traffic. Switching off the engine can lock the steering on some vehicles.

💡 Tip: Pump, downshift, handbrake.

17. Children under 12 should travel:

  1. In the rear seat, wearing a seat belt or child restraint ✔
  2. On the front lap of an adult
  3. Anywhere in the car
  4. Standing in the rear

Correct answer: In the rear seat, wearing a seat belt or child restraint

This is recommended safety practice rather than a test-bank rule. A front airbag can seriously injure a small child, so the rear seat with a belt or child seat is safest.

💡 Tip: Kids at the back, strapped in.

18. A tyre that is under-inflated will:

  1. Increase fuel use and risk of tyre damage ✔
  2. Give better grip always
  3. Reduce braking distance
  4. Have no effect

Correct answer: Increase fuel use and risk of tyre damage

Low tyre pressure increases rolling resistance, makes the tyre overheat, and can lead to a blowout. Check the pressure regularly when the tyres are cold.

💡 Tip: Right pressure = safe and economical.

19. While driving, you should look:

  1. Well ahead and use the mirrors frequently ✔
  2. Only at the bonnet
  3. Only at the speedometer
  4. At your phone

Correct answer: Well ahead and use the mirrors frequently

Looking far ahead gives you time to react. Check mirrors and blind spots regularly and before every change of lane or speed.

💡 Tip: Eyes up, mirrors often.

20. Which is a safe way to drive in heavy rain?

  1. Reduce speed and use dipped headlights ✔
  2. Speed up to get through it
  3. Turn off the lights
  4. Follow closely behind the vehicle ahead

Correct answer: Reduce speed and use dipped headlights

Rain reduces both visibility and grip. Slow down, switch on low-beam headlights so you can be seen, and increase the gap.

💡 Tip: Slow, lit, spaced.

21. Driving after consuming drugs or medicines that cause drowsiness is:

  1. An offence and dangerous ✔
  2. Safe if you drive slowly
  3. Safe at night
  4. Allowed on highways

Correct answer: An offence and dangerous

Section 185 covers alcohol and drugs. Some cold or allergy medicines make you sleepy, so read the label and avoid driving if it warns of drowsiness.

💡 Tip: Read the label.

22. If a tyre bursts while driving, you should:

  1. Hold the steering firmly, ease off the accelerator, and brake gently ✔
  2. Brake hard immediately
  3. Turn sharply to the left
  4. Speed up

Correct answer: Hold the steering firmly, ease off the accelerator, and brake gently

Sudden braking or sharp steering can flip the vehicle. Hold the wheel firmly, lift off, slow down gradually, and pull over when safe.

💡 Tip: Grip, lift, ease, stop.

23. Using high beam on a city road with street lights is:

  1. Unnecessary and may dazzle others ✔
  2. Compulsory
  3. Required at night
  4. Required at junctions

Correct answer: Unnecessary and may dazzle others

Street lights already illuminate the road. High beam is meant for dark, empty roads and must be dipped for oncoming or leading vehicles.

💡 Tip: City = low beam.

24. Which of these is an example of aggressive driving?

  1. Frequent honking and tailgating ✔
  2. Keeping a safe gap
  3. Giving way to pedestrians
  4. Using indicators

Correct answer: Frequent honking and tailgating

Aggressive driving includes tailgating, honking unnecessarily and weaving. It raises the chance of a crash and of road rage.

💡 Tip: Stay calm, stay safe.
