1Under Ordinance No. 40 Art. 23b, how many questions are on the IAAA ADR driver exam for модул „Основен" (basic module)?

A.30 questions

B.15 questions

C.50 questions

D.20 questions

Explanation: Art. 23b of Ordinance No. 40 sets 30 questions for the first-time basic module (модул „Основен"). The 15-question paper is the refresher (удължаване) basic-module test, not the initial sitting. Specialised tank, Class 1 and Class 7 modules are scored separately.

2How much time does IAAA allow for the 30-question ADR basic-module test?

A.45 minutes

B.90 minutes

C.60 minutes

D.30 minutes

Explanation: Ordinance No. 40 Art. 23b gives 60 minutes for the 30-question basic module. The specialised tank, Class 1 and Class 7 papers are 30 minutes each, and the refresher basic paper is 30 minutes.

3What is the pass rule for the IAAA ADR basic module (модул „Основен")?

A.At least 70 percent of available points, as for DGSA consultants

B.No more than 6 wrong answers on the 30-question paper

C.No more than 3 wrong answers on the 30-question paper

D.A scaled score of 80 after IAAA adjusts for difficulty

Explanation: Art. 23b awards a pass (оценка „ДА") on the basic module when the candidate has no more than 6 wrong answers. That is at least 24 of 30. IAAA does not use a 70 percent consultant-style points rule or a scaled score for driver papers.

4How many training hours does Ordinance No. 40 require for first-time ADR driver qualification in модул „Основен"?

A.8 teaching hours

B.13 teaching hours

C.24 teaching hours

D.19 teaching hours

Explanation: Art. 15e sets 19 teaching hours for first-time basic-module training. Eight hours is the refresher basic course. Thirteen hours is the first-time tanks module. Candidates sit the IAAA exam only after this approved course.

5A driver has passed only the IAAA basic module. Which additional first-time courses does Ordinance No. 40 require before that driver may sit the specialised papers for tanks, explosives, or radioactive material?

A.Tanks 13 hours, Class 1 eight hours, and Class 7 eight hours, each as a separate specialised module

B.A single 19-hour add-on that covers tanks, Class 1 and Class 7 together

C.Tanks 8 hours, Class 1 13 hours, and Class 7 19 hours

D.No extra course: the basic certificate already authorises tanks, Class 1 and Class 7

Explanation: Art. 15e and Art. 23 require separate specialised modules: tanks 13 hours, Class 1 eight hours, and Class 7 eight hours. Art. 23 also requires a pass on the basic module before those specialised exams. The basic certificate alone does not authorise tank, explosive, or radioactive specialisations.

6Where and after what training is the official IAAA ADR driver exam taken?

A.Online from any EU computer after a self-study workbook

B.At the consignor's warehouse immediately after loading practice

C.In IAAA regional Control Activity – DAI exam rooms, after an approved ADR course

D.At the Ministry of Interior traffic-police station without prior training

Explanation: Art. 15k places driver exams in IAAA regional-office cabinets. Candidates must have completed the approved course (Art. 15k and Art. 15g). The official sitting is in Bulgarian. This English bank is a study adaptation, not an official translation or remote exam.

7In Bulgarian and UNECE road-transport law, what does ADR mean?

A.The Association of Dangerous-goods Road hauliers

B.The Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road

C.The Accident and Disaster Response code for motorways

D.The Automotive Directive on residual cargo

Explanation: Ordinance No. 40 § 1 defines ADR as the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road, as last amended. Bulgaria applies it to domestic and international road carriage of dangerous goods. It is a UN treaty, not a trade association or an accident-response protocol.

8Which Bulgarian authority issues the ADR driver certificate and conducts the driver exam?

A.The Nuclear Regulatory Agency for every class

B.Customs at the Kapitan Andreevo border crossing

C.The Ministry of Environment and Water alone

D.Executive Agency Road Transport Administration (ИААА / IAAA)

Explanation: IAAA (Изпълнителна агенция „Автомобилна администрация") organises driver exams, issues the certificate, and inspects dangerous-goods road carriage. Interior and nuclear authorities have extra roles for Class 1 and Class 7, but they do not replace IAAA as the driver-certificate body.

9Which Bulgarian instrument sets the conditions and procedure for road carriage of dangerous goods, including ADR driver training and exams?

A.Ordinance No. 40 of 14 January 2004

B.Ordinance No. 41 on passenger CPC training only

C.The Road Traffic Act chapter on speed cameras

D.A municipal Sofia taxi by-law

Explanation: Ordinance No. 40 of 14 January 2004 is the Bulgarian implementing instrument for ADR road carriage, DGSA duties, driver training, exams, vehicles, documents and control. IAAA publishes the driver theme list under that ordinance.

10How long is an IAAA ADR driver certificate valid, and from which date does that period run?

A.10 years from the date the approved course started

B.3 years from the date of the specialised tanks exam only

C.5 years from the date of the last successful basic-module exam

D.Until the driver licence itself expires, with no separate ADR clock

Explanation: Art. 26 sets a 5-year validity running from the date of the last successful basic-module exam. Later tank, Class 1 or Class 7 qualifications are added to the same certificate without changing that expiry, unless a new basic exam is passed under the renewal rules.

Bulgaria ADR Driver: Suggested Study Strategy

1Memorise the basic-module format: 30 questions, 60 minutes, at most 6 wrong.

2Learn the 13 IAAA basic-course theme titles in order — they are the official blueprint.

3Orange-plate, label, and mixed-load rules are high-yield because they appear across several themes.

4Do not sit the exam without the approved 19-hour basic course; Ordinance No. 40 requires training first.

5Tank, Class 1 and Class 7 need extra courses; passing the basic module alone does not authorise those specialisations.
