Free Practice Questions for Hungary KRESZ Category T Theory Exam

KRESZ Traffic Rules, Speed Limits & Road Prohibitions

General road traffic rules under Decree 1/1975 (KRESZ) applicable to agricultural tractors and slow vehicles. Topics include speed limits (agricultural tractors max 40 km/h; slow vehicles max 25 km/h; tractors towing trailers max 40 km/h; slow vehicles towing a trailer max 25 km/h), strict prohibition on motorways (autópálya) and express roads (autóút) where vehicles unable to sustain 60 km/h are banned, right of way at intersections, rules for entering paved roads from dirt/farm tracks (dűlőút / földút), yielding to through traffic, clearing mud before entering paved roads, turning maneuvers, passing and being overtaken, railway level crossings (vasúti átjáró) approach and clearance safety, towing limitations (max 2 trailers for tractors, max 1 trailer for slow vehicles), and passenger transport bans on trailers and tractors without designated factory seats.

Technical Specifications, Braking Systems & Signage

Statutory vehicle construction, technical equipment, and braking systems under Decree 6/1990 (KöHÉM). Detailed coverage of agricultural tractor classification (black-on-white license plate) versus slow vehicle classification (red background with white characters), slow-moving vehicle rear reflective identification plate (UN ECE 69 truncated red fluorescent triangle with retro-reflective border), pneumatic brake systems (single-line pressure-drop system versus modern dual-line supply/control system with red and yellow coupling heads), overrun inertia brakes (ráfutófék) restricted to max 3.5 tonnes gross trailer mass, breakaway safety cables (szakadófék), parking brakes, tyre inflation pressure and load index, lighting and signaling equipment, working lights prohibition during road transit, and tractor-trailer coupling mechanisms (rockinger hitch, drawbar eye, and spherical K80 ball couplings).

Agricultural Implements, Three-Point Hitch & PTO Shaft Safety

Safe operation, transport, and coupling of mounted, semi-mounted, and trailed agricultural implements under the KAV curriculum. Key subjects include three-point linkage mechanics (lower link arms, top link, lift rods, and sway stabilizers / check chains), mandatory mechanical transport lock (mechanikus szállítási reteszelés) during road travel to eliminate hydraulic drop hazards, front axle ballasting to maintain steering control (minimum 20% front axle weight), Power Take-Off (PTO / TLT - Teljesítményleadó tengely) operating speeds (540 rpm, 540E, 1000 rpm), full-length PTO shaft protective guards and cones, anti-rotation check chains anchored to implement and tractor chassis, tractor spline master shields, hydraulic quick couplers, and oversized agricultural vehicle rules under Decree 13/2010 (amber flashing light for machinery >2.55 m, warning marker boards, and escort vehicle requirements >4.5 m).

Occupational Health and Safety & Tractor Stability (Munkavédelem)

Workplace safety regulations (munkavédelem), tractor ergonomics, and fatal hazard prevention in agricultural machine operation. Covers Roll-Over Protective Structures (ROPS / borulásvédő keret és fülke) and mandatory seat belt wearing to prevent driver ejection and crushing during rollovers, foldable ROPS operating protocols, slope stability and rollover dynamics (center of gravity elevation, centrifugal tipping on curves, slope traversing limits), 3-point contact rule when ascending or descending tractor cabs, high-pressure hydraulic fluid injection hazards (150–250 bar skin penetration, compartment syndrome, surgical emergency, never using bare hands for leak detection), maintenance safety beneath raised machines (mandatory mechanical lock struts, never relying on hydraulic cylinders alone), and safe engine shutdown procedures.

Agricultural Cargo Transport, Securing & Harvesting Fire Protection

Safe loading, transport of agricultural commodities, and fire prevention pursuant to KRESZ and OTSZ. Topics include stable bale transport, the 4.00 m loaded-height ceiling, the 2.50 m vehicle-and-load width ceiling for the ordinary open-load exception, lashing and strap inspection, covering loose material against spill, and current harvesting fire-prevention equipment and housekeeping duties.
