About the Bhutan Driving Theory Test Exam

The Bhutan Driving Theory Test is the official computer-based driver knowledge examination administered by the Bhutan Construction and Transport Authority (BCTA, formerly the Road Safety and Transport Authority) under the Road Safety and Transport Act 1999 and the Road Safety and Transport Regulations 2021. The official eTest comprises 20 multiple-choice questions worth 2 marks each (40 marks total) drawn at random from BCTA's question bank and completed in 30 minutes. It is divided into four sets: Rules and Regulations (30%, 6 questions), Safe Driving Practice and Vehicle Handling (20%, 4 questions), Traffic Signs and Road Markings (30%, 6 questions), and Mechanical and Technical Aspects of Vehicles (20%, 4 questions). Candidates must score at least 50% in every set and at least 24 of 40 marks overall — at least 12 correct answers. Core Bhutanese rules include keeping to the left edge of the road (Section 347), overtaking on the right (Section 350), a 30 km/h default in built-up areas and 50 km/h for light vehicles and two-wheelers outside them (Sections 300–301), a BAC limit of 0.08 g/100 ml for ordinary licence holders of more than three years with zero tolerance for newer and professional drivers (Sections 436–437), and downhill vehicles stopping to give way to uphill traffic on mountain roads (Section 349). This free 100-question bank is an English-language study adaptation that covers the same four official sets in more depth than the 20-item official test; it is a study aid, not a simulation of the official eTest.

How do the Bhutan Driving Theory vocabulary games work?

There are 4 games built on 20 Bhutan Driving Theory terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.

Where do the Bhutan Driving Theory terms come from?

OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Bhutan Construction and Transport Authority (BCTA), Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.

What is the structure and passing mark of the Bhutan driving theory test?

The official BCTA driving theory test is a computerized examination consisting of 20 multiple-choice questions worth 2 marks each (40 marks total) with a 30-minute time limit. To pass, candidates must achieve at least 50% in each of the four question sets (Rules and Regulations, Safe Driving, Traffic Signs, Mechanical Aspects) and score at least 24 out of 40 marks overall (at least 12 correct questions).

What are the speed limits in Bhutan under the Road Safety and Transport Regulations 2021?

Section 300 sets 30 km/h inside a built-up area where no speed limit sign applies. Section 301 sets 50 km/h for light vehicles and two-wheelers and 35 km/h for medium and heavy vehicles where no sign applies outside a built-up area. These are defaults, not entitlements: a posted sign overrides them under Section 302, some town centres post lower limits, and drivers must reduce speed further for road, weather and mountain conditions. Over-speeding carries 35 penalty units (Nu. 1,750).
