South Australia, motorcycle licence
All 70 SA rider practice questions, with answers
Every original rider question on this site for South Australia, grouped by topic, with the correct answer marked and the reason under each one.
Where these questions come from
Original practice questions written for this site. Not the official question bank. They were written against the current South Australia road rules for riders, with the rule cited under every answer. Service SA does not publish a motorcycle question bank, so nothing on this page is the wording you will meet in the sitting.
Questions and pass mark: Being verified. No question count or pass mark for the rider knowledge test in South Australia has been confirmed against Service SA, so this page does not state one.

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 SA motorcycle practice test simulator draws from them in the shape of a sitting, and the 8 tests in the SA rider ladder mark each answer with the rule underneath it.
