SGI Written Test Quiz

This online SGI written test quiz, with multiple choice questions, is intended to help you prepare for the Saskatchewan Class 7 learner’s Novice 1 license test required before you can get your driver’s license. This free practice written driving test is a lesson that is essential for getting your Saskatchewan driver’s license at your local licensing office. Please note, however, that this is not the actual test, and you will not receive your license if you pass this practice test. You’ve come to the right place, whether getting your Commercial Driver’s License, Learner’s Permit, or Motorcycle License. It is all FREE!

The Basics of Defensive Driving:

Keep your visuals sharp:

Defensive driving is about looking for potential trouble. Who is overspeeding or driving recklessly beside you? Where is that sneaky motorcycle? What does that pre-caution sign mean? The side and rear view mirror is there for a reason: to help you identify blind spots. It seems like an obvious reminder, but how often have you heard, “That vehicle just appeared out of nowhere”? While approaching an intersection, never assume it is safe to proceed. Why? Once in a while, there is always a disobedient driver who will go through the light. An excellent defensive driver can sniff trouble before it happens by scanning while driving. Be on the lookout!

Keep an eye on the speed limit:

Speed limits are set depending on the road’s location and traffic, which must be obeyed. The maximum speed limit on provincial highways is typically 110 km/h, while cities and towns have lower limits depending on the road’s location. Drivers must always be aware of the weather conditions, particularly during winter, when ice and snow create hazardous driving conditions. Additionally, wearing seatbelts while driving or riding in a vehicle is mandatory. It is also essential to follow the rules regarding distracted driving and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, which are strictly enforced in Saskatchewan. Road safety is a top priority in Saskatchewan province, and strict measures are taken to ensure driver compliance.

WHAT TO EXPECT ON A WRITTEN LEARNERS PRACTICE TEST

On the Saskatchewan driving test, you can always expect to be tested on the:

Speed limit:

It will probably haunt you if you don’t grasp the speed limit restrictions in your driver’s manual. Every driver’s manual has a speed limit chart of specific zones or roads. Because of that, expect to be asked about the speed limit in certain areas, such as school zones or residential areas, on your Saskatchewan driving test.

Distracted driving:

Distracted driving, such as using a handheld device or eating while driving, is prohibited and can result in hefty fines. It is also mandatory for all occupants of a vehicle to wear seatbelts.

Winter driving:

Regarding winter driving, Saskatchewan experiences harsh winters with snow and ice-covered roads. Drivers must have proper winter tires and adjust their driving habits accordingly. It is recommended to drive at a slower speed and to increase following distances during winter months. Stopping distances are also increased, so it is essential to allow adequate time to brake and avoid collisions.

Overall, Saskatchewan’s traffic and road rules prioritize safety on the road. All drivers must adhere to these rules to ensure a safe commute for themselves and others.
