Learners Licence
The K53 Learners licence Random Test Generator
The K53 RTG is used to test, study and prepare for your theoretical learners licence test. The program
includes light motor vehicles, heavy vehicles as well as motorcycle theory.
The test is designed to generate random a test each time, therefore no two generated tests will be the
same. However, the program was also designed in such a way that after a minimum of 10 tests has
been completed, all the questions in the database will have been viewed at least once.
Installation: To install the program do the following:

1.
2.
Place the CD into the CD-ROM

Double click the My Computer icon.
3.
Double click the D:\ (CD-ROM) icon.
4.

5.

6.

7.
Now a window will appear with the following icons that you can double click, namely:
Install_R_T_G, and jdk-1_5_0_02-windows-i586-p.exe. This is a java program and you
must first install java in order to run the program. (If you already have a jre installed on your
system it must be a version later than 1.5.02).
Double click the jdk-1_5_0_02-windows-i586-p.exe icon and follow the on screen
instructions to install the JRE.
Click on the I accept the agreement button and press next. Just click all the next buttons
that will appear until the installation is complete.
Double click the Install_R_T_G icon to begin the installation program.
Follow the on screen instructions of the installation program to install the R.T.G on your
system.
There are two ways to start the K53 R.T.G programme. You can click on the icon showed
below. This icon will be on the desktop of you computer.
Or you can use the shortcut made in the start menu. Click start, programs, K53 Random Test Generator
and then the K53_R_T_G icon.
Generate a test To generate a test do the following:
Learners Licence
1.
2.
3.
Choose the appropriate language by clicking on the language of your choice.

Choose the type of learners licence test that you want to generate by clicking on code 1,2,3.
Click on the Click here to start button to generate your test.
The test contains three sections, namely:

1.
Rules of the road (25 questions)
2.
Road signs and road markings (25 questions)
3.
Vehicle controls (5 questions)
Complete the generated test by clicking on the correct answers and using the scrollbar on the right
hand side of the screen to scroll up or down and view the rest of the questions. A question has only one
correct answer.
You will notice that there is a timer at the top right-hand corner of the screen. After one hour the time will
expire and the test will be marked automatically and show your results. If you finish the test before the
time expires, simply click the mark test button at the bottom of the test, to mark the test and show the
results.
In order to pass a test no more than 5 questions may be answered incorrectly for section 1 and 2 (Rules
of the road, and road signs and road markings) and no more than one question may be answered
incorrectly for section 3 (Vehicle controls).
The number of questions answered correctly will be displayed for each section individually. You must
succeed in all sections in order to pass the whole test.
To return to your test to view incorrect answers click on the yellow Go back to test button. Your
answers will be shown as well as the correct answers highlighted in green.
Study
To study for the learners licence test, generate a test and do the following:
1.
Stop the timer by clicking on the timer menu at the top left-hand corner of the screen, and

then selecting stop timer from the menu.
2.

To show the answers, click on the Answers option in the top menu and select Show
answers.
Now there will be no time limit and all the answers will be highlighted in green. You can therefore study
the questions and answers for as long as you like.
It is recommended that you study through at least 10 tests in this manner before you test yourself.
Generate a new test
If you are finished with the test, click on the Test menu option in the top menu and select Generate
test from the menu to go back to the first screen and allow you to select different options and generate
a new test.

Drivers Licence
PROLOGUE
The aim with this CD is primarily to acquaint the holder of a learners licence, of what
he/she has to be able to do on the day when he/she will be tested by a registered testing
officer before a valid driving licence will be issued.
It is imperative that you should first read this booklet prior to watching the visual material.
PRACTICAL LICENCE TEST

Exterior Pre-trip procedure
(Report to the testing officer the following in a conversational manner maximum of three
minutes of the exterior and interior):

The pre-trip inspection, must be done before every departure in an anti-clockwise

way starting at the drivers door, check for any obstacle underneath the vehicle
and behind and in front of the tyres, as well as any oil leakages.
Make sure that each door is working properly and that all doors can open from
the inside and the outside of the vehicle.
Check that all of the windows of the doors work properly, and that the outside
right-hand mirror is:
Moving on to the windscreen you check for cracks, marks and anything that will
obstruct your vision when driving, and check that the wiper blades are
still in order.
There are four things you must mention when checking each tyre, namely:
28
clean,
undamaged,
secure (c.u.s.- formula).
The running surface of the tyre is acceptable (grooves must be at least

1 mm deep over 75% of the running surface).
There are no cuts or knobs on the side-wall of the tyre.
Tyre pressure is correct.
The nuts or bolts of the tyre rim are secure.
At the front of the vehicle check that the head lights, indicators and number plate
are still clean, attached and not broken and make sure that the
registration number of the vehicle corresponds with the registration disc number
affixed to the windscreen of the vehicle.
Afrikaans
Bestuurders Lisensie
VOORWOORD
Die doel met hierdie CD is hoofsaaklik om die houer van n leerlinglisensie vertroud te
maak met wat hy/sy in staat moet kan wees om te doen op die dag wat hy/sy deur n
geregistreerde toetsbeampte getoets sal word voordat n geldige bestuurslisensie uitgereik
sal word.
Dit is uiters belangrik dat jy eers di boekie sal lees voordat jy na die visuele materiaal kyk.
PRAKTIESE LISENSIETOETS
Buitevoertuig Voorrit-inspeksieprosedure
(Lewer mondelings op n geselstrant kommentaar aan die toetsbeampte oor wat jy besig is
om te kontroleer). Maksimum tyd hiervoor drie minute, buite en binne.)

Die voorritinspeksie moet voor elke vertrek gedoen word. Altyd in n anti-
kloksgewyse rigting, begin by die bestuurder se deur, kyk vir enige obstruksies
onder die voertuig en voor en agter die wiele, asook enige olielekke onder die
voertuig.
Maak seker dat elke deur in werkende toestand is en dat alle deure van binne en
buite kan oopmaak.
Kontroleer dat al die vensters van die deure in werkende toestand is en dat die
buitespiel regs:
Beweeg dan na die windskerm, kyk vir krake, merke en enige iets wat jou sig kan
versper as jy sou bestuur en kontroleer dat die ruitver heel is.
Daar is vier dinge wat jy moet doen wanneer jy die bande kontroleer, naamlik:
Die loopvlak van die band moet aanvaarbaar wees (groewe moet ten minste 1
mm diep wees oor 75% van die loopvlak).
Daar moet geen snye of knoppe op die kant van die band wees nie.
Die banddruk in orde is.
Die boute en moere van die bandvelling vas is.
Aan die voorkant van die voertuig, kontroleer dat die hoofligte, flikkerligte se
lense en die nommerplaat nog skoon is, vas is en nie gebreek is nie. Maak ook
seker dat die registrasienommer van die voertuig ooreenstem met die
lisensieskyfnommer wat op die windskerm vasgeplak is.
heel
skoon, en
stewig is (hss-formule)
29
English

Under the bonnet you must be able to name and point out the following (if the
testing officer requires it):
Moving anti-clockwise around the vehicle, check that the left front tyre is in the
same condition as the previous one, the windscreen and wiper blade are secure
and undamaged, and check that the licence disk of the vehicle is still valid
and corresponds with the registration plate.
Check each door, mirror and tyre just as you did on the drivers side of the
vehicle.
At the rear end of the vehicle check that the following are attached and not
broken:
State that the vehicle has a jack, properly inflated spare wheel and wheel
spanner inside the boot and that they are in working order.
State that the fuel cap is secure and that the doors, tyre and windows are all in
the same condition as the previous ones; ending where you started.
Radiator and other water levels were checked as well as

Oil level.
Brake fluid, and
Fan belt.
Brake and park light lenses.

Window.
Number plate.
Interior Pre-trip procedure

(Also verbally reported to the testing officer.)

Inside the vehicle check that your seat is in the correct position; you can see
in all three the mirrors and, that there are no obstacles underneath your feet or
pedals. Check that your seat belt is working properly; the emergency
brake of the vehicle is activated and that the gear lever is in a neutral position.
Check that you have pressure on both clutch and brake pedals.
Now, on request of the testing officer, check the working order of your vehicles
indicators, brake lights and headlights both in front of the vehicle and at the rear.
Finally check the wipers and hooter of the vehicle (test both physically).
Now we know that our vehicle is safe and working properly and we may begin
our driving.
30
Afrikaans

Onder die enjinkap moet jy die volgende noem of kan uitwys en kontroleer
(indien die toetsbeampte dit sou vereis):
Nog steeds in n anti-kloksgewyse rigting om die voertuig, kontroleer die linker

voorband dat dit presies soos die vorige band is, die windskerm en ruitver vas
en heel is, kontroleer dat die lisensieskyfie van die voertuig nog geldig
is en ooreenstem met die nommerplaat.
Kontroleer elke deur, spiel en band net soos jy aan die bestuurderskant van die
voertuig gedoen het.
Aan die agterkant van die voertuig kontroleer dat die volgende vas en heel is:
Meld dat die voertuig n domkrag het, n korrek gepompte noodwiel en

wielsleutel binne in die bagasiebak het en dat alles in werkende toestand is.
Meld dat die brandstofprop stewig is en die deure, band en vensters in dieselfde
toestand as die voriges is - eindig waar jy begin het.
Verkoeler en ander watervlakke is nagegaan, asook

Olievlak.
Remvloeistof, en
waaierband.
Remlig en parkeerlense.
Agterruit.
Nommerplaat.
Binnekajuit Voorrit-inspeksieprosedure
(Ook mondelings genoem aan die toetsbeampte.)

Binne in die voertuig, kontroleer dat jou sitplek in die regte posisie is, dat jy in
al drie die spiels kan sien en dat daar geen obstruksies onder jou
voete en onder die pedale is nie. Kontroleer dat jou sitplekgordel in werkende
toestand is, die noodrem van jou voertuig geaktiveer is en dat die rathefboom in
n neutrale posisie is. Kontroleer dat jy drukking het op beide die koppelaar- en
rempedale.
Nou, op aanvraag van die toetsbeampte, kontroleer die werkende toestand

van jou voertuig se flikkerligte, remligte en hoofligte aan die voorkant
sowel as aan die agterkant. As finale aksie kontroleer die toeter en die ruitvers
van die voertuig (toets beide fisies).
Nou weet ons dat ons voertuig veilig en in werkende toestand is en dat ons mag
begin bestuur.

English
Driving off to be tested in the yard
Observation (as for the rest of your life)
The basic observation you must be able to master is the five point observation, according
to the following procedure:

Check the blind spot over your left shoulder.

Left-hand mirror.
Rear view mirror in the middle.
Right-hand mirror.
Blind spot over your right shoulder.
Before driving (as for the rest of your life)

As we mentioned earlier there are a few things that we have to check before driving:

Make sure that the emergency brake is applied.

The gear lever is in neutral.
You can see in all three mirrors.
That the seat is in the correct position for driving.
The seat belt is in working order.
The steering method (as for the rest of your life)

Defensive driving (K53) prescribes that the steering wheel must be held in a very specific
manner: The hands should be in the ten to two position, with the thumbs resting on the
outer rim of the steering wheel.
When turning the steering wheel, your arms or hands should preferably never cross each
other. The ideal is to push the steering wheel with the hand furthest away from your
chosen direction of turn and to pull with the hand closest to your chosen direction of turn.
If a wider turn is executed, and the hands have to be adjusted, this push/pull method must
be applied.
Pulling away (as for the rest of your life)
Before you pull into a road, the following must be done:

Switch on the vehicle.
Do the five point observation starting on any side of vehicle checking the blind spot, side
mirror, rear view mirror, side mirror and the other blind spot yet again.

32
Indicate the direction you have chosen to turn into.

Put the vehicle in first gear.
Afrikaans
Beweging na die toetsgronde
Observasie (soos vir die res van jou lewe)
Die basiese observasie wat jy moet bemeester is die vyfpunt observasie wat soos volg
uitgevoer word:

Kontroleer die blindekol oor jou linkerskouer.

Linkerhandse spiel.
Truspiel vir agtersig in die middel.
Regterhandse spiel.
Blindekol oor jou regterskouer.
Voor bestuur (soos vir die res van jou lewe)

Soos vroer genoem, is daar n paar dinge wat ons moet kontroleer voordat ons begin
bestuur:

Maak seker dat die noodrem geaktiveer is.

Die rathefboom in neutraal is.
Jy in al drie die spiels kan sien.
Dat die sitplek in die korrekte posisie is vir bestuur.
Dat die sitplekgordel in werkende toestand is.
Die stuurmetode (soos vir die res van jou lewe)

Die Defensiewe Bestuurmetode (K53) skryf voor dat die stuurwiel op n spesifieke manier
vasgehou moet word: Die hande moet in die tien voor twee posisie wees, met die duime
wat rus op die buiterand van die stuurwiel.
Wanneer die stuurwiel gedraai word, moet die hande en arms liefs nooit gekruis word nie.
Dit is ideaal om die stuurwiel met die hand verste weg van jou gekose draairigting te stoot
terwyl die hand die naaste aan jou gekose draairigting die stuurwiel moet trek.
Wegtrek (soos vir die res van jou lewe)
Voordat jy in n openbare pad in beweeg, moet jy die volgende doen:

Skakel die voertuig aan.
Doen die vyfpunt observasie, begin aan enige kant van die voertuig kyk in die blindekol,
kantspiel, truspiel, die ander kantspiel en die ander blindekol by wyse van herhaling.

Sein in die rigting wat jy gekies het.

Skakel die voertuig in eerste rat.
Kontroleer die blindekol in die rigting waarheen jy draai.
Slegs dan mag die noodrem gedeaktiveer word en weggetrek word.
33
English

Check the blind spot in the direction you are turning into.
Only then can you lower the emergency brake and pull away.
Clutch control (as for the rest of your life)

Make sure that you establish clutch control, before you deactivate the emergency brake.
When you feel the vehicle wants to start moving while the clutch pedal is slowly released,
then you have clutch control and whilst keeping your foot on the clutch pedal in the same
position and deactivating the emergency brake, the vehicle will start moving automatically.
YARD TEST
(Maximum 17 minutes, remember you have already used three minutes for the pre-trip
inspections.)
Before each manoeuvre there are certain procedures that you must perform before you can
start, namely:

Activate the emergency brake of your vehicle.

Put the gear lever in a neutral position.
Do the five point observation where you check the following:
Indicate in the direction you are going to turn into.

Put the vehicle in the right gear.
Do the five point observation again.
Deactivate the emergency brake.
Now you can start moving (but remember as soon as you start turning to check
the appropriate blind spot).
Left blind spot.

The left-hand outside mirror.
The rear view mirror.
Right-hand mirror.
The right blind spot.
Alley Docking
Alley Docking to the LEFT
Stop the vehicle in the demarcated block as marked on the road.
After stopping:

34
Activate the emergency brake.

Put the gear lever in neutral.
Do the five point observation.
Afrikaans
Koppelaarbeheer (soos vir die res van jou lewe)
Maak seker dat jy koppelaarbeheer uitoefen, voordat jy die noodrem deaktiveer. Wanneer
jy voel dat die voertuig wil begin beweeg, terwyl die koppelaarpedaal stadig uitgelaat
word, dan het jy koppelaarbeheer terwyl jou voet op die koppelaarpedaal in dieselfde
posisie gehou word en die noodrem gedeaktiveer word. Die voertuig sal dan outomaties
begin beweeg.
DIE WERFTOETS
(Maksimum 17 minute, onthou jy het alreeds drie minute vir die voorritinspeksies gebruik.)
Voor elke beweging moet jy sekere prosedures uitvoer voordat jy kan begin, naamlik:

Aktiveer die noodrem van jou voertuig.

Plaas die rathefboom in n neutrale posisie.
Doen die vyfpunt observasie, waar jy die volgende kontroleer:
Sein in die rigting waarheen jy gaan draai.

Skakel die voertuig in die regte ratposisie.
Doen die vyfpunt observasie weer n keer.
Deaktiveer die noodrem.
Nou mag jy begin beweeg (onthou kry koppelaarbeheer), maar onthou om die
toepaslike blindekol te kontroleer voordat jy begin draai.
Blindekol links.
Buitespiel links.
Die truspiel.
Buitespiel regs.
Blindekol regs.
Gangparkering
Gangparkering na LINKS
Stop die voertuig in die afgebakende blok, soos op die padoppervlakte gemerk.
Nadat jy gestop het:

Aktiveer die noodrem.

Doen die vyfpunt observasie.
Sein na LINKS.
Skakel die rathefboom in die truposisie.
Doen weer die vyfpunt observasie.
35
English

Indicate to the LEFT.

Put the gear lever in the reverse position.
Now you can start moving, but as soon as you start turning, check
your blind spot over your RIGHT shoulder, because you are
moving backwards, whilst turning left.
Make sure that you do not start turning too early or too soon, as you will hit one of the
obstacles (posts) or the pavement.
An immediate termination of your practical test may be one of the following:

Your vehicle hits an obstacle.

Your vehicle rolls forward or backwards if you are supposed to stand
still, or rolls in the opposite direction in which you intend to drive.
If you mount the kerb.
Any uncontrolled or dangerous action.
Any violation of a traffic law.
Any violation of a road traffic sign.
Exceeding the number of attempts on a manoeuvre.
Without stopping, reverse slowly through the posts, without hitting them, until you almost
reach the end of the alley.
After stopping:


Indicate to the RIGHT.
Put the gear lever in first gear.
Now you can start moving towards the demarcated block on your
RIGHT, but as soon as you start turning, check your blind
spot over your LEFT shoulder, because you are moving forward.
Alley Docking to the RIGHT

Stop the vehicle in the demarcated block as marked on the road.
After stopping:

Afrikaans

Nou mag jy begin beweeg, maar onthou om die oomblik as jy begin draai die
blindekol oor jou REGTERskouer te kontroleer omdat jy agteruit begin
beweeg en na links draai.
Maak seker dat jy nie te vroeg begin draai nie, jy mag dan dalk een van die paaltjies of die
randsteen raak.
Die onmiddellike beindiging van jou praktiese toets mag die gevolg van een van die
volgende wees:

Jou voertuig raak n hindernis (paaltjie).

Jou voertuig rol vorentoe of agtertoe as jy veronderstel is om doodstil te staan, of
rol in die teenoorgestelde rigting waarin jy wil ry.
As jy bo-op die randsteen beland.
Enige onbeheerde of gevaarlike aksie uitvoer.

Turning to the LEFT
As you approach a LEFT turn, you must:


and the blind spot to the LEFT,
and indicate to the LEFT.
After stopping:


Pull away slowly.
Remember to check your blind spot to the LEFT as the last action, before
turning.
Stopping at a stop sign without the proper road markings

When there is no road marking at a stop sign and no line to stop behind, make yourself an
imaginary line parallel to the stop sign and stop at least a metre away from the imaginary
line.
The correct and incorrect way of turning
There are two incorrect and unsafe ways of turning, namely:

Cutting a corner, thus turning too soon and maybe colliding with another vehicle,
or
taking the turn too wide resulting in hitting the pavement.
Now view the correct way of turning.

The yellow cross on the road
You may never stop on top of a yellow cross road marking. You may only stop in front of it
or behind it. If you stop on top of it, you are obstructing the traffic that is supposed to turn
there resulting into the immediate termination of your road test.

Stop by n stopteken sonder die behoorlike padmerke

Wanneer daar geen padmerke by n stopteken is en geen lyn waaragter jy moet stop nie;
bepaal vir jouself n denkbeeldige lyn parallel met die stopteken en stop dan ten minste n
meter agter daardie denkbeeldige lyn.
Die korrekte en verkeerde manier om te draai
Daar is twee verkeerde en onveilige maniere om te draai, naamlik:

Om n draai te sny, jy draai te vroeg en mag dalk bots met n ander voertuig, of
om n draai te wyd te neem, wat tot gevolg het dat die randsteen getref word.
Kyk nou na die korrekte manier van draai.

Die geel kruis op die padoppervlakte
Jy mag nooit bo-op n geel kruis wat op die padoppervlakte geverf is, stop nie. Jy
mag slegs voor of agter dit stop. As jy bo-op dit stop, is jy besig om ander verkeer wat
veronderstel is om daar te draai, se weg te versper en druip jy onmiddelik jou padtoets.
