1Under Cambodian road traffic rules, what is the primary meaning of an equilateral triangular road sign with a red border, a white background, and a black symbol?
A.A danger warning sign alerting drivers to an upcoming hazard or change in road conditions
B.A mandatory instruction indicating an action that all road users must execute
C.A prohibitory regulation indicating a strict restriction or maneuver ban
D.An informative guide providing directions, distances, or local service locations
Explanation: In Cambodia, danger warning signs are equilateral triangles featuring a red border, white background, and black pictogram. They warn drivers of hazards ahead, such as bends, intersections, or pedestrian zones, requiring reduced speed.
2What is the physical shape and primary color scheme of the standard 'STOP' sign on Cambodian roads?
A.An inverted triangle with a red border and white interior
B.An octagonal sign with a red background and white border and lettering
C.A circular sign with a red border and yellow interior
D.A diamond-shaped sign with a blue background and white lettering
Explanation: The standard 'STOP' sign (ឈប់) in Cambodia is octagonal (eight-sided) with a bright red background, white border, and white lettering. Its unique shape allows drivers to recognize it immediately even if obscured by dirt or viewed from behind.
3What driver action is legally required when approaching an inverted triangular sign with a red border and white background ('Give Way' / Yield)?
A.Slow down and yield right-of-way to all vehicles traveling on the intersecting roadway, stopping if necessary
B.Bring the vehicle to a mandatory complete stop at the stop line before proceeding
C.Accelerate to merge quickly ahead of approaching vehicles on the intersecting road
D.Sound the horn and maintain speed because the sign indicates priority over left-turning vehicles
Explanation: The inverted triangle sign ('Give Way') requires drivers to slow down and give priority to all approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway. A complete stop is only required if cross-traffic is present and cannot be safely cleared without stopping.
4What does a yellow diamond sign with a white border indicate on Cambodian roadways?
A.The road currently being traveled has priority at upcoming intersections
B.The roadway is terminating and all traffic must detour to the right
C.An upcoming school zone requiring a speed reduction to 20 km/h
D.A toll plaza entrance requiring cash or electronic payment
Explanation: A yellow diamond with a white border designates a 'Priority Road'. Drivers on this road have right-of-way over intersecting secondary roads until an 'End of Priority Road' sign (the same diamond crossed by black diagonal bars) is reached.
5What is the meaning of a circular sign featuring a red border, a white background, and a silhouette of a passenger car?
A.No entry for motor vehicles with four or more wheels
B.Parking zone reserved exclusively for passenger motorcars
C.Compulsory minimum speed lane designated for passenger vehicles
D.Vehicle inspection check station for private passenger cars
Explanation: A circular sign with a red border containing a car silhouette is a prohibitory sign forbidding entry to motor vehicles, specifically passenger cars and multi-wheel motor vehicles. Motorcycles may be exempted unless also depicted.
6A circular road sign has a red border, a white background, and two cars depicted side-by-side, where the car on the left is red and the car on the right is black. What does this sign mean?
A.Overtaking of other motor vehicles is strictly prohibited
B.Dual carriageway traffic flow begins ahead
C.Two lanes merging into a single lane from the left
D.Passing permitted only on the left side of the road
Explanation: This sign indicates 'No Overtaking' (ហាមវ៉ាជែង). Drivers must not overtake any motor vehicle with four or more wheels on this stretch of road. The restriction continues until an 'End of Overtaking Prohibition' sign is encountered.
7What does a circular sign with a solid blue background displaying a white arrow pointing curved to the left indicate?
A.Mandatory turn left ahead; all drivers must turn left at the intersection
B.Advisory warning of a gentle curve to the left ahead
C.Prohibition against turning left at the upcoming intersection
D.Left lane reserved exclusively for emergency vehicles
Explanation: Circular signs with a solid blue background and white symbols are mandatory signs (សញ្ញាបញ្ជា). A curved white arrow pointing left means all vehicles must turn left at the indicated intersection or junction.
8What is the legal significance of a circular sign with a solid blue background and the white number '40' displayed inside?
A.Compulsory minimum speed of 40 km/h; drivers must travel at or above this speed under normal conditions
B.Maximum speed limit of 40 km/h; drivers must never exceed this speed
C.Advisory recommended speed of 40 km/h for heavy commercial trucks
D.Route identification marker indicating National Highway 40
Explanation: A blue circular sign with a white number designates a compulsory minimum speed limit (ល្បឿនអប្បបរមាកំណត់). Drivers must maintain at least 40 km/h unless prevailing traffic, weather, or road hazards prevent safe operation.
9What is indicated by a circular sign with a red border, white background, and a blue interior crossed by two red diagonal lines forming an 'X'?
A.No stopping and no parking at any time (clearway)
B.Parking permitted for up to 30 minutes with hazard lights activated
C.No parking permitted, but stopping briefly to drop off passengers is allowed
D.Restricted railway crossing with automated barrier gates
Explanation: A circular sign with a red border and a blue field crossed by an 'X' (two intersecting diagonal red stripes) means 'No Stopping' (ហាមឈប់). Neither stopping nor parking is permitted for any reason except when directed by police or traffic signals.
10What does a circular sign with a red border and a single diagonal red slash across a blue background signify?
A.No parking permitted, though brief stopping to set down or pick up passengers or cargo is allowed
B.Total ban on stopping and parking under all operational circumstances
C.Free public parking area available 24 hours daily
D.End of all previous speed restrictions and passing bans
Explanation: A circular sign with a red border and a single diagonal slash across a blue interior is the 'No Parking' sign (ហាមចត). Vehicles may stop momentarily to pick up or discharge passengers or load/unload goods, but must not remain stationary without a driver.

About the Cambodia Category B Driving Test Exam

The Cambodian Category B driving licence (ប័ណ្ណបើកបរប្រភេទ ខ) is issued by MPWT under the Law on Road Traffic. Article 40 authorises passenger vehicles with not more than nine occupants including the driver, goods vehicles of not more than 3.5 tonnes, and towing a trailer of not more than 0.75 tonnes. Applicants must be at least 18, pass a computerised theory test and a practical steering test, and hold a medical fitness certificate. A Category B licence does not authorise motorcycles over 125 cc. MPWT does not publish the selectable sitting languages on its service page; this bank is independent OpenExamPrep English-language MCQ study for the published road-traffic rules, not an official translation or a practical-test substitute.

Cambodia Category B Driving Test: Suggested Study Strategy

1Learn sign families by shape: triangles warn, inverted triangles yield, octagons stop, red-bordered circles prohibit, and blue circles mandate.
2Memorise Article 21: slow at every junction; give priority to the right if neither road has priority; at a T-junction the terminating road yields; circulating roundabout traffic has priority.
3Treat Sub-Decree No. 86 as the car speed table: 40 km/h in towns, 80 km/h elsewhere, 90 km/h on divided-lane roads, unless a posted sign is lower.
4Study Article 43's 12-mark card. Helmet/seat-belt failures cost 1 mark; 0.25–0.39 mg/L breath alcohol costs 3 marks; 0.40 mg/L breath costs 6 marks and also triggers Article 77 criminal penalties.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does a Cambodian Category B licence cover?

Under Law on Road Traffic Article 40 and the MPWT FAQ, Category B covers passenger vehicles with not more than nine people including the driver, goods vehicles not over 3.5 tonnes, and towing a trailer not over 0.75 tonnes. It does not authorise motorcycles over 125 cc.

How is the official Category B test structured?

MPWT states that the driving-licence exam has two stages: a computerised theory test, then a practical steering test. Candidates who fail theory cannot take the practical test. MPWT does not publish the theory item count, time limit, or pass mark on the service page.

What are the official Category B fees?

The MPWT fee table lists 90,000 Riels for Cambodian Category B applicants and 180,000 Riels for foreign applicants. Duplicate or renewal of Type B is 30,000 Riels. Exchanging a valid foreign licence costs 120,000 Riels and yields a one-year Cambodian licence.

Is this practice bank an official MPWT exam or translation?

No. It is independent English-language multiple-choice study by OpenExamPrep for Category B topics drawn from MPWT rules and the Law on Road Traffic. It is not an official paper, not a format simulation of the practical test, and not a substitute for MPWT's Cambodia Driving Rules materials.
