BiH Theory B Study Tips from Top Performers

1Pay extreme attention to Oblast III (Intersections): 10 questions are worth 5 points each (50 points total). Answering 3 intersection questions wrong results in 15 lost points, dropping your score below the 108-point (90%) pass threshold.
2Know the statutory speed limits: 50 km/h in settlements (naselje), 80 km/h on regional/open roads, 100 km/h on expressways (motoput), and 130 km/h on motorways (autoput).
3Remember that low-beam headlights or daytime running lights (kratka / dnevna svjetla) are legally mandatory 24 hours a day in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
4Understand the BAC limits: 0.00 g/kg (0.00‰) for drivers under 21 or with less than 3 years of driving experience and professional drivers; 0.30 g/kg (0.30‰) for experienced non-professional drivers.
5Master the priority hierarchy: Police officer hand signals override traffic lights; traffic lights override traffic signs; traffic signs override general rules (such as the right-hand rule).
