As professionals, heavy vehicle drivers must be committed to being responsible road users for whom safety is the prime concern. They have to make sound decisions in the face of potentially dangerous situations. We recommend studying the ‘Driving a Heavy Vehicle‘ manual to properly prepare for the knowledge and road tests.

What Topics Does the Test Cover?

The heavy vehicle knowledge test covers a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:

Traffic laws and regulations
Road signs and signals
Vehicle control and operation
Safe driving practices
Hazard perception and emergency procedures

It is important to thoroughly review all these topics before taking the exam. The official handbook provided by SAAQ is an excellent resource for studying, as it contains all the necessary information that will be covered on the test.

Tips for Preparing

Study regularly: Cramming all the information in one sitting can be overwhelming. Instead, set aside time each day to review a few handbook sections.
Take practice tests: Many online resources offer practice tests similar to the official exam. This will help you become familiar with the format and types of questions asked.
Review your mistakes: Note any questions you got wrong on practice tests, and review those sections more thoroughly.
Ask for help: If you have questions about certain topics or concepts, don’t be afraid to ask a professional driving instructor or experienced truck driver for assistance.
