Sample Myanmar Traffic Rules Theory Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Myanmar Traffic Rules Theory exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 30+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1According to the RTAD Driver Guide, when may a driver cross a single broken centreline on a two-way road?

A.Only to enter a bus lane

B.To turn or overtake when the movement is safe

C.Only after stopping on the line

D.Whenever the road ahead is hidden

Explanation: RTAD permits crossing a single broken centreline to turn and to overtake when it is safe. The line must not be straddled while driving, so the driver should complete the permitted movement and return to the proper lane.

2What does the RTAD Driver Guide require at a single continuous centreline?

A.Cross only for a U-turn

B.Cross only to pass a slow vehicle

C.Do not cross, straddle, turn across, or overtake across it

D.Treat it like a broken line outside towns

Explanation: A continuous centreline prohibits crossing, straddling, turning across it, making a U-turn across it, and overtaking across it. The restriction applies because the marking identifies a place where crossing the opposing flow is not permitted.

3Which action is prohibited at the central double lines described by RTAD?

A.Reducing speed before a bend

B.Crossing the lines to overtake

C.Maintaining a position within the lane

D.Watching for limited visibility

Explanation: RTAD states that central double lines must not be crossed and that overtaking, U-turns, straddling, standing, and parking are prohibited there. The guide notes that these lines are used at hazards such as bends and hidden hilltops.

4A paired centreline has a broken line on your side and a continuous line beside it. What does RTAD permit from your side?

A.Cross to turn when safe, but do not overtake or make a U-turn across the pair

B.Cross to overtake whenever no vehicle is visible

C.Cross only to park on the opposing side

D.Treat both lines as a single broken centreline

Explanation: RTAD's rule for the paired continuous-and-broken marking differs from its rule for a single broken line. From the broken-line side, a driver may cross to turn when safe from oncoming traffic, but may not overtake, straddle the pair, or make a U-turn across it.

5What lane-change rule applies to continuous lane lines before an intersection stop line?

A.Lane changes are allowed if the signal is green

B.Lane changes are allowed one lane at a time

C.Lane changes are not allowed across the continuous lines

D.Only buses may change lanes there

Explanation: RTAD says lanes may be changed one at a time across broken lane lines without impeding following traffic. It separately prohibits changing lanes across the continuous lane lines used before an intersection stop line.

6In the RTAD Driver Guide, what do yellow lines used to demarcate a traffic lane identify?

A.A bus-only lane

B.A lane open only for overtaking

C.A general parking lane

D.A lane reserved for motorcycles

Explanation: The RTAD Driver Guide identifies traffic lanes demarcated by yellow lines as bus-only lanes. Drivers should distinguish this lane marking from yellow pedestrian and island markings, which serve different purposes.

7Pedestrians are crossing at a zebra crossing. Where does the RTAD Driver Guide require the approaching vehicle to stop?

A.With its front wheels on the crossing

B.At least 5 metres before the crossing or yellow broken line

C.Exactly 1 metre after the crossing

D.Beside the pedestrian on the crossing

Explanation: RTAD instructs drivers to approach cautiously and slow from at least 50 metres away. When pedestrians are crossing, the vehicle must stop at least 5 metres before the zebra crossing or yellow broken line and proceed only after they have cleared.

8What is the difference between white/red and yellow/black roadside kerb markings in the RTAD Driver Guide?

A.White/red permits parking; yellow/black permits overtaking

B.White/red prohibits halting and parking; yellow/black permits temporary halting but not parking

C.Both permit parking for up to ten minutes

D.Both apply only to buses

Explanation: RTAD prohibits both halting and parking beside white/red kerbs. Beside yellow/black kerbs, temporary halting is allowed but parking is prohibited, particularly where blockage is possible near busy public places.

9If an authorized traffic controller's direction conflicts with a road signal, what must a driver follow?

A.The controller's direction

B.The road signal in every case

C.The instruction from another driver

D.The fixed road marking even when the controller directs otherwise

Explanation: Myanmar Motor Vehicle Rule 140 requires drivers to obey road signs, markings, and signals, but also to follow the directions of the person controlling traffic under the rules. An authorized controller can manage an unusual or temporary traffic situation that the fixed signal does not reflect.

10On which side of the road do Myanmar Motor Vehicle Rules normally require vehicles to keep?

A.The left-hand side

B.The centre unless overtaking

C.The right-hand side

D.Either side on two-way roads

Explanation: Rule 141 states that vehicles normally keep to the right-hand side of the road. A driver must still select an appropriate lane and comply with markings, signs, and one-way controls.

Myanmar Traffic Rules Theory: Suggested Study Strategy

1Use RTAD's published sign and road-marking meanings rather than importing rules from another country.

2Distinguish a single broken centreline from paired continuous-and-broken lines; RTAD assigns different turning and overtaking rules.

3Study exact RTAD figures only when published, including 40 km/h in town and 80 km/h outside town on qualifying roads under the cited rules.

4Treat the MCQs as knowledge review and confirm current local test logistics with the testing office.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does RTAD publish the number of theory questions or the passing score?

No fixed nationwide item count, duration, or cut score appears in the official RTAD sources reviewed. OpenExamPrep therefore labels those logistics as not published instead of substituting its practice-bank count.

What official material supports this practice bank?

The bank uses RTAD's Driver Guide, Motor Vehicle Rules, licence requirements, vehicle standards, and the Road Safety and Motor Vehicle Management Law 2020. RTAD has not published percentage topic weights.

Is this an official English translation of the RTAD test?

No. It is independent English-language MCQ study practice. RTAD does not publish an official test-language list in the sources reviewed, and the resource does not simulate the official delivery environment.

What are the published Class B eligibility basics?

RTAD lists age 18, a valid learner or other qualifying licence held for at least 3 months, and completion of RTAD traffic-rules instruction or a registered driving-school course.
