K53 Book : Manual For The Learners and Driving Licence Tests DL
The New Official k53 Manual For The Learners and Driving Licence Tests DL
Before you take driving lessons on a public road, you must prove to the authorities that you know and understand some basic things about driving and road law. The learner’s licence test is how you can prove this. When you pass this test you will qualify for a learner’s licence to show that you are permitted to drive on a public road, provided a suitably qualified and licenced driver accompanies you.
To pass the learner’s licence test you will need to:
- know all the rules of the road; 8 understand the basics of the K53 defensive driving system;
- know what the various vehicle controls are used for (steering wheel, gears, footbrake, etc.); and
- know the meanings of the road traffic signs, signals and painted road markings, and how the driver should respond to each of them.
