How can I memorise the Highway Code?

Question

I need tips on memorising the Highway code - I've got my theory test in 2 weeks time. What's the best approach to memorising something like that?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I found going over all the questions the best way 2 revise the theory test - buy the CD (u can get it on ebay 4 cheap http://search.ebay.co.uk/driving-test_W0QQfcdZ2QQfnuZ1QQsacurZ3QQsalicZ3) or do some free at http://www.dsa.gov.uk/mockpaper/theoryintro.htm

This way when ur doing the test, u'll have seen all the questions b4. The CD also helps u practice the hazard perception bit too...

Answer 2

I hope this helps! I am 61 years old and relocated to the UK from a country whose licensing is not recognised here with the result that after 43 years I had to redo my licence as if I had never driven before. I bought the DVD and practised every day for 1 hour doing trial tests. I passed with 100%. The hazard test was for me more difficult but I still managed to get through. When you get a driving instructor do what you are told even if it does not make sense....it will in the long run. I passed my test first time. Best of luck.

Answer 3

you don't need to memorise the entire thing. the theory test is really easy the only thing i learnt were the stopping distances the rest of the questions are pretty simple to work out

Answer 4

i did mine a few months ago.
you need to keep on reading it constantly im afraid. it is good if you can get people to ask you questions too.
bsm do a book with all the questions in the highway code, if you go into your local bsm centre they have them for sale there for about 7 quid. it is brilliant alot of the questions are obvious i would recomened it 100%. i wouldnt have passed without it. you can test yourself that way on the real questions and get others to test you also. i have borrowed mine to 3 people since and they all passed 1st time, i really want you to go get it and pass. Good luck and i wish you all the best.

Answer 5

All of it is important, you SHOULD know it all anyway by now. Not sure why your instructor has left it to last minute to tell you to read it. The questions can be from ANY part of the highway code so you need to know it all.

Answer 6

Read Summarise Tape.Listen to tape at opportune times eg at toilet,on bus or train etc,but especially just before you go to sleep.Put into action when driving or assimilation.

Answer 7

When trying to memorize any information, the best way is to:
Read the info
Write it down
Hear it from someone (you can record on to a tape)
and tell it to someone (again - a tape if nessercary)

Always worked for me :) Good luck

Answer 8

Read small amounts at a time,two weeks plenty time yet

Answer 9
