Original PureCar visual practice · Northern Ireland

Learn the rule from the road scene, not just the wording.

These are original PureCar vector diagrams built specifically for NI learners. Practise junctions, roundabouts, vulnerable road users, motorways, weather and developing hazards without using copied official test images.

Visual road scenarios

Open a scene to understand what it is testing, then use the randomised visual practice test.

T-junction priority driving theory diagram
Junctions

T-junction priority

At a give-way junction you must not enter the main road until it is safe.

Roundabout: traffic from the right driving theory diagram
Roundabouts

Roundabout: traffic from the right

At a normal roundabout you should give priority to traffic approaching from your right unless signs or markings say otherwise.

Pedestrian on a zebra crossing driving theory diagram
Pedestrians

Pedestrian on a zebra crossing

You must give way to pedestrians who are on a zebra crossing.

Cyclist passing parked cars driving theory diagram
Vulnerable road users

Cyclist passing parked cars

Cyclists may need to move out around parked cars or doors. Give them space and overtake only when safe.

Passing a horse rider driving theory diagram
Vulnerable road users

Passing a horse rider

Horses can be startled. Slow down, leave plenty of space and avoid revving or sounding the horn.

Child near parked vehicles driving theory diagram
Hazard awareness

Child near parked vehicles

Children can move unpredictably and may be hidden by parked vehicles. Slow early and prepare to stop.

Following distance on a wet road driving theory diagram
Weather

Following distance on a wet road

Stopping distances increase on wet roads, so you should leave much more space.

Driving in fog driving theory diagram
Weather

Driving in fog

In poor visibility you should reduce speed, increase separation and use the correct lights.

Joining a motorway driving theory diagram
Motorways

Joining a motorway

Use the acceleration lane to build an appropriate speed and merge into a safe gap without forcing other traffic to alter course.

Temporary lane closure driving theory diagram
Roadworks

Temporary lane closure

Temporary traffic management signs and markings must be followed. Merge safely and predictably.

Yellow box junction driving theory diagram
Junctions

Yellow box junction

You should not enter a box junction unless your exit is clear, apart from the specific right-turn exception.

Return left after overtaking driving theory diagram
Dual carriageways

Return left after overtaking

On multi-lane roads you should normally keep left unless overtaking or signs direct otherwise.

Turning right across oncoming traffic driving theory diagram
Junctions

Turning right across oncoming traffic

When turning right you must give way to oncoming traffic if your turn would cross its path.

Obstruction on your side driving theory diagram
Meeting traffic

Obstruction on your side

If the obstruction is on your side, you should normally give way when necessary to pass safely.

Emergency vehicle approaching from behind driving theory diagram
Hazard awareness

Emergency vehicle approaching from behind

Help emergency vehicles make progress, but do not put yourself or others at risk or break traffic rules.

Cyclist near a blind bend driving theory diagram
Overtaking

Cyclist near a blind bend

Do not overtake where you cannot see far enough ahead to complete the manoeuvre safely.

Possible ice on a bridge driving theory diagram
Weather

Possible ice on a bridge

Bridges can freeze before surrounding roads. Reduce speed in good time and use smooth controls.

Amber traffic light driving theory diagram
Signals

Amber traffic light

Amber means stop unless you have already crossed the line or are too close to stop safely.

Mini-roundabout driving theory diagram
Roundabouts

Mini-roundabout

Treat a mini-roundabout like a normal roundabout and give way to traffic from the right unless signs say otherwise.

Level crossing red lights driving theory diagram
Signals

Level crossing red lights

Flashing red lights at a level crossing mean stop. Never try to beat the signals or barriers.

Parked car door hazard driving theory diagram
Hazard awareness

Parked car door hazard

Opening doors can force cyclists to change direction suddenly. Reduce speed and create space.

Pedestrian emerging between parked cars driving theory diagram
Hazard awareness

Pedestrian emerging between parked cars

Pedestrians emerging from between parked vehicles may be difficult to see and can step into your path.

Large vehicle turning left driving theory diagram
Hazard awareness

Large vehicle turning left

Large vehicles may need extra room to turn and can have significant blind spots. Do not squeeze alongside.

Why PureCar is using diagrams

Visual questions can test judgement that plain text does not show as clearly.

Position and priority

See exactly where vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians are positioned instead of imagining a junction from a paragraph.

Developing hazards

Learn to recognise situations where a safe driver should slow down before the danger becomes immediate.
