The Category TM licence covers tractors and motorredskaber from age 16, subject to the stated eligibility rules, and is included with Category B for an 18-year-old holder. The official assessment is an individual oral theory examination plus a practical driving test; no fixed oral item count, duration, or numeric cutoff is published. The listed fee is DKK 1,600. This English MCQ bank adapts the underlying knowledge and cannot simulate the oral or practical performance.

Sample Denmark Category TM Tractor Theory Test Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Denmark Category TM Tractor Theory Test exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the minimum age requirement to obtain a Category TM (Tractor and Motorized Machinery) driving licence in Denmark?
A.15 years old
B.16 years old
C.17 years old
D.18 years old
Explanation: In Denmark, the minimum statutory age to obtain a Category TM driving licence (traktorkørekort) is 16 years old. A candidate can begin theory instruction and take the theory test up to six months before turning 16, but the practical driving test and licence issuance can only occur once the applicant turns 16.
2Does holding an ordinary Danish Category B (passenger car) driving licence entitle the driver to operate Category TM vehicles on public roads?
A.Yes, Category B automatically confers the right to drive Category TM tractors and motorized machinery
B.No, Category TM requires passing a separate tractor practical test regardless of holding Category B
C.Only if the driver has held Category B for at least two consecutive years
D.Only for tractors with an engine power below 50 kW (approximately 68 horsepower)
Explanation: Under the Danish Road Traffic Act (Færdselsloven), holding a valid Category B driving licence automatically grants the right to drive vehicles in Category TM (tractors and motorized machinery / motorredskaber), with or without an approved trailer. A separate tractor test is not required for Category B holders.
3What should a tractor operator do before starting the engine when people may be near the machine or an attached implement?
A.Start immediately so the warning lamps attract attention
B.Raise every implement before looking around
C.Check the surroundings, ensure nobody is in a danger zone, and warn nearby people before starting
D.Rely only on the engine noise to make people move
Explanation: People can be hidden by the bonnet, wheels, trailer, or implement. The operator must check all danger zones and communicate before starting because hydraulic, PTO, or vehicle movement can begin unexpectedly.
4What is the correct response if steering assistance fails while a tractor is being driven on the road?
A.Accelerate so the assistance returns
B.Unlock the split brake pedals and steer with one brake
C.Continue the journey because steering assistance is optional
D.Reduce speed, maintain control, and stop safely for the fault to be repaired
Explanation: Loss of assistance can make steering unexpectedly heavy and may indicate a hydraulic or electrical fault. The driver should reduce speed without abrupt inputs and stop at the first safe opportunity rather than continue normal road travel.
5Before road travel, how should a tractor's independent left and right brake pedals be configured?
A.Disconnected from the braking system
B.Locked together so both sides brake together
C.Set so only the left rear wheel can brake
D.Covered so neither pedal can be used
Explanation: Independent pedals help tight low-speed field turns, but on the road they must be mechanically locked together. A hard application to only one side can cause a sudden yaw or loss of control.
6What is required when a front-mounted implement prevents the driver from seeing traffic safely at a field exit?
A.Enter the carriageway quickly before traffic arrives
B.Sound the horn and assume other traffic will stop
C.Use an approved means of obtaining a safe view, such as a guide or suitable camera/mirror system, and yield before entering
D.Raise the implement until it blocks the windscreen instead
Explanation: The implement must not be pushed into the road merely to obtain a view. Where the driver's position cannot provide safe observation, an approved view aid or a safely positioned guide is needed before exercising the unconditional duty to yield.
7Which check is essential immediately after coupling an agricultural trailer?
A.Confirm that the coupling is positively locked, the safety device is fitted, and all brake and lighting connections are secure
B.Leave the coupling pin unsecured so it can move freely
C.Raise the trailer drawbar with the hydraulic arms while driving
D.Disconnect the trailer brakes to reduce rolling resistance
Explanation: A trailer can separate or become uncontrollable if the hitch, secondary security, brakes, or lights are not correctly connected. The driver must inspect and function-check the completed coupling before road travel.
8Which health documentation is mandatory when applying for a Danish Category TM driving licence at Borgerservice?
A.Only a self-declaration of fitness signed by the applicant's parents
B.A specialized neurological clearance certificate issued by a state hospital
C.An audiologist hearing test report only
D.A valid medical certificate (lægeattest) completed by a registered general practitioner
Explanation: All first-time driving licence applicants in Denmark, including Category TM applicants, must submit an official medical certificate (lægeattest) issued by a general practitioner in a sealed envelope to Borgerservice, verifying vision, hearing, physical mobility, and general health.
9What types of vehicles are covered under a Danish Category TM driving licence?
A.Only two-wheel drive agricultural tractors without implements
B.Agricultural tractors and motorized machinery (motorredskaber), with or without an approved trailer or mounted implements
C.Any vehicle used for agricultural purposes, including four-wheel drive pickups and flatbed trucks up to 7,500 kg
D.Tractors, mopeds, and private passenger cars carrying agricultural produce
Explanation: Category TM covers agricultural and forestry tractors as well as motorized mobile machinery (motorredskaber, e.g., combine harvesters, telescopic handlers, self-propelled sprayers), whether driven alone or coupled to approved trailers or implements.
10How soon before reaching the minimum licensing age of 16 may an applicant begin theoretical training and take the Category TM theory examination?
A.At most one month before turning 16
B.At most three months before turning 16
C.At most six months before turning 16
D.At any age, as long as the practical test is postponed until age 16
Explanation: In Denmark, a candidate can begin instruction and take the Category TM theory test up to six months before their 16th birthday. However, the practical test can only be taken once the candidate has actually reached the age of 16.

About the Denmark Category TM Tractor Theory Test Exam

Denmark's Category TM assessment evaluates the traffic knowledge, spatial judgment, and technical safety required to operate tractors and motorredskaber on public roads. Færdselsstyrelsen conducts the theory component orally and then assesses driving in a separate practical test. Topics include licence scope, speeds and road restrictions, dimensions, lighting and marking, visibility, manoeuvring, coupling, brakes, PTO guarding, hydraulics, and rollover protection. Official delivery pathways include Danish, English, German, Faroese, and Greenlandic under Færdselsstyrelsen's stated language and interpreter rules; German TM tests are limited to the named southern test sites.

Assessment

Færdselsstyrelsen conducts the Category TM theory examination orally. A separate practical test follows and typically lasts about 30–45 minutes on the authority's public test page. The oral assessment can cover traffic rules, signs, tractor and motorredskab equipment, brakes, coupling, visibility, and safe operation. This English-language four-option bank is an MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation, oral-format simulation, or substitute for oral or practical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum age to obtain a Category TM licence in Denmark?

The minimum age is 16 years old. An applicant may begin driving instruction and take the theory examination up to six months before turning 16, but the practical driving test and licence issuance can only take place once the applicant is 16.

If I already hold a Danish Category B car licence, do I need a Category TM licence?

No. Holding a valid Danish Category B car licence automatically entitles you to drive Category TM tractors and motorized machinery (motorredskaber) with or without an approved trailer.

How is the Danish Category TM theory test conducted?

Færdselsstyrelsen conducts Category TM theory orally. The authority's public material does not specify a fixed item count or numeric error threshold for this individual oral assessment.

How long is the Category TM theory examination?

Færdselsstyrelsen does not publish a fixed duration for the individual oral theory examination. Its public driving-test page describes the separate practical test as typically about 30–45 minutes.

What is the standard maximum speed for an agricultural tractor on Danish roads?

Under Færdselsloven § 43, the standard maximum speed limit for agricultural tractors and mobile machinery on public roads is 30 km/h. Tractors and trailers specifically inspected, registered, and approved for high-speed operation (T-hastighed / Tempo 40) may travel at up to 40 km/h.

Can an agricultural tractor drive on a Danish motorway or expressway?

No. Tractors and motorized machinery are strictly prohibited from driving on Danish motorways (motorveje) and expressways (motortrafikveje) under all circumstances.

What are the rules regarding mud and soil on tyres after working in fields?

Under Færdselsloven § 87, drivers are legally obligated to clean their tyres before entering public paved roads and to immediately clean up any mud or soil deposited on the asphalt to prevent skidding hazards for other motorists.
