What types of questions are on the theory test for AM driving license?

Are you going to get a driving license for a moped or EPA and are wondering what types of questions are on the test? Here we go through how the theory test is structured.

What does the AM driving license theory test include?

To obtain an AM driving license, which allows you to drive a class I moped and EPA tractor, you must complete a theory test. The AM theory test assesses your knowledge in five different areas, covering topics such as traffic rules, vehicle knowledge, maneuvering, and traffic safety.

How many questions are on the AM theory test?

The moped driving license theory test consists of 70 questions, but 5 of these are test questions and do not affect your final score. This means that the maximum number of points you can achieve is 65 points.

To pass the AM theory test, you need at least 52 correct answers out of the 65 available points.

What types of questions are on the AM theory test?

The questions on the AM theory test are divided into five main categories:

  • Personal conditions: 5 questions about how your own abilities affect your driving.
  • Environment: 4 questions about how moped driving affects the environment and how to drive in a more eco-friendly way.
  • Traffic rules: 33 questions about traffic laws, such as right of way, speed limits, and road signs.
  • Traffic safety: 17 questions on how to avoid accidents and drive safely in different traffic situations.
  • Vehicle knowledge and maneuvering: 6 questions about the vehicle’s functions, braking systems, lighting, and how to handle the vehicle in practice.

How much time do you have for the AM theory test?

For the moped and EPA tractor driving license theory test, you have 50 minutes to complete the exam.

Is it possible to apply for extended test time?

If you have reading and writing difficulties, ADHD, dyslexia, or other needs, you can apply for extended test time. In this case, you will have 75 minutes instead of the standard 50 minutes to complete the test.

You must apply for extended test time at Trafikverket, and in most cases, you need to provide a certificate proving your need for extra time.

Can you take the theory test orally?

If you have severe reading difficulties or other barriers, you can apply for an oral theory test. This means that a test administrator will read the questions and answer options aloud to you.

The application for an oral test is submitted through Trafikverket, and you need to provide a certificate, for example, from a special education teacher or doctor.

More information about customized theory tests is available on Trafikverket’s website.

What happens if you fail the theory test?

If you do not get at least 52 correct answers, you must reschedule and take a new test. You can take the theory test as many times as needed, but you must pay a fee for each attempt.

How do you best prepare for the theory test?

To pass the AM driving license theory test, it is important to:

  • Study driving theory and practice AM license test questions.
  • Take practice tests to get a feel for how the questions are structured.
  • Learn traffic rules and understand traffic safety for mopeds and EPA tractors.
