Learn to identify and respond to hazards on Irish roads. Fog, ice, pedestrians, school zones, and emergency situations.
Test your knowledge with real RSA-style questions. Free to start, no account needed.
Start PractisingIn fog, use dipped headlights AND fog lights (not full beam)
On icy roads, brake gently and steer smoothly
Near schools, expect children to appear suddenly
If aquaplaning, ease off the accelerator — don't brake suddenly
Keep extra distance in wet conditions (double the 2-second rule)
Watch for cyclists at junctions — check mirrors and blind spots
Using full beam in fog (reflects back and blinds you)
Braking suddenly on ice or during aquaplaning
Not adjusting speed near schools and playgrounds
Forgetting to check blind spots before changing lanes
Stopping distance in rain is roughly double that of dry conditions
Black ice is most common at dawn and dusk in winter
Speed zones near schools are 30 km/h during school hours
Hazard awareness questions carry extra weight in the test scoring
Use dipped headlights and front fog lights. Never use full beam in fog — it reflects off the water particles and reduces your visibility further.
Ease off the accelerator gently. Do NOT brake suddenly. Hold the steering wheel firmly and wait for the tyres to regain contact with the road.
They are often considered the trickiest category because they test situational judgement, not just memorised facts. Many involve "is_dangerous" scenarios.
Take a timed mock test with 40 questions from all categories — just like the real thing. 35/40 to pass. Can you do it?
