Australian Capital Territory, car licence
All 100 ACT learner practice questions, with answers
All 100 original Australian Capital Territory practice questions for the car licence are on this page, in 11 topics, the largest topic being give way and intersections with 10 questions. They were written for this site and dated 28 August 2026, they are not the official question bank, and each one carries the correct answer and the rule behind it.
The ACT car bank includes 100 questions over 11 topics, with three sections tied for the largest count. Give way and intersections, Traffic lights and signs, and Parking and stopping each have 10 questions. Roundabouts, Speed limits, Overtaking and following, Alcohol drugs and fatigue, Signals and lane use, and Pedestrians and vulnerable road users each contain 9. Seatbelts and passengers and Mobile phones and distraction each have 8. Work through the three ten-question topics early, then spread practice across the remaining sections. The ACT test allows little room for error, so broad coverage matters alongside the larger categories.
The official assessment is the ACT knowledge test. It has 35 questions and you need 31 correct to pass. It sits after the Pre Learner Licence Course and before the learner licence stages. Later, the ACT Hazard Perception Test can be taken online from three months after receiving an ACT learner licence, and it must be passed before upgrading to a provisional licence. It presents 25 short videos. Keeping that order clear helps you prepare for the road rules assessment now and understand the further step that follows.
These are original practice questions written for this site, not the official question bank. ACT Government does not publish the ACT knowledge test bank. Each answer shows the correct choice and cites its road rule, while the official handbook remains the authority. With 31 correct needed out of 35, practice across all topics rather than leaving a category untouched. Start with the three sections that each contain 10 questions, then revisit any misses in the nine- and eight-question groups. Use this page to check your understanding, and consult the ACT handbook whenever you need the definitive wording.
Where these questions come from
Original practice questions written for this site. Not the official question bank. They were written against the current Australian Capital Territory road rules, with the rule cited under every answer. ACT Government does not publish the ACT knowledge test question bank, so nothing on this page is the wording you will meet in the sitting.

Why the whole set is on the page
These questions were written for this site, so there is no reason to put them behind an account. Reading them is not the same as being ready for the sitting, though: the ACT knowledge test simulator draws from them in the shape of a sitting, and the 20 tests in the ACT ladder mark each answer with the rule underneath it.
