More PDFs full of test questions: thb.gov.tw/catalog?node=9ea3 ā¦ 8ad2caf714[/quote]
A lot of those questions on the PDFās are āfillersā, of the āA motorist should drive (1) dangerously (2) responsibly (3) recklesslyā style, which just take up space.
Iāve tried to select out the questions that one could actually get wrong, for the Rules-choice (motorcycle) PDF. Might do some more later.
Some of the āofficialā answers seem wrong, and some of them I donāt understand, but I THINK its better than the last time I looked at this, a few years ago.
054 1 Temporary parking b may not exceed 3 minutes and drivers have to be
ready to move their vehicle at anytime.[/b] (2) may not exceed 10 minutes
and the driver may leave their vehicle. (3) may not exceed 5 minutes.
057 3 If neither the motorcyclist nor their passenger are not wearing a safety
helmet, who will be fined NTD 500? (1) The motorcycle owner. (2).The
passenger. b The motorcycle driver.[/b]
Comment : Double negative, so wrong. Like it matters.
065 3 Motorcycle riders are required to comply with speed limits shown on
signs or markings. On roads that are not marked and do not have traffic
signals, speed markings, or lane lines separating traffic, speed limit is
(1) 20km per hour. (2) 30km per hour. b 40km per hour.[/b]
067 1 Motorcyclists have to comply with the speed limits shown on signs or
pavement markings. If there is no sign nor pavement marking, their speed may not exceed b 50km per hour.[/b] (2) 40km per hour. (3) 30km per hour.
Comment : Note difference between 065 and 067
069 1When driving, motorcyclists b must carry a full set of tools with them.[/b]
(2) do not have to bring any tools with them. (3) There is no law regulating this.
Comment : Oh yeh? Wonder how/if āfull set of toolsā is defined
075 1 On a one-way road without any lane lines separating the fast and slow
lanes, b motorcyclists may use either the far right lane or the far left
lane.[/b] (2) motorcyclists may use the far right lane only. (3) motorcyclists
may use any lane they want.
077 3 If a motorcyclist runs a red light, (1) they will be fined NTD 1,200~
3,600 (2) their driverās license will be suspended for one month. b they
will be fined NTD 1,800 ~5,400 and receive 3 traffic violation points on
their driving record[/b]
080 1 Motorcyclists are required to comply with the speed limits shown on
signs. What is the speed limit in the slow-vehicle lane of a road with a
lane line separating the slow and fast vehicle lanes? b 40km per hour.[/b]
(2) 50km per hour. (3) 60km per hour.
Comment :Seems unrealistically slow. Also seems to conflict with 065 above
081 3 Each tap on your horn must (1) not be longer than 2 seconds. (2) not be
longer than 1 second. b not be longer than half a second.[/b]
085 3 Ignoring the instructions given by a police officer or traffic controller
will result in a (1) one-month suspension of your driverās license. (2)
two-month suspension of your driverās license. b being fined and
receiving a traffic violation on your driving record.[/b]
088 2 On roads with no lane line separating the fast and slow lanes,
motorcyclists must stay (1) in the inner lane. b in the 2 outer lanes.[/b] (3)
in the middle of the inner lane.
Comment : I guess āouter laneā means RHSide of the road.
103 3 If a driver goes through a pedestrian crosswalk without yielding to any
pedestrians, thus causing either injury or death, the driversā criminal
penalty will be increased by (1) 100%. (2) 200%. b 50%.[/b]
106 3 Drivers who violate traffic rules must pay the fine within how many
days after receiving the citation? (1) 20 days (2) 14 days (3) 30 days.
107 1 If a driver hits and injures an on-duty police officer, b they will be
fined and their driverās license will be cancelled[/b]. (2) they will be fined
and their driverās license will be suspended. (3) they will be fined to the
maximum amount allowed by law.
109 3 What happens if you are caught speeding? (1) You will be fined. (2)
You will be fined and your driverās license will be suspended for one
month. b You will be fined and receive 1 traffic violation point on
your driving record.[/b]
115 3 If a driver lends their driverās license to another person, how long will
their driverās license be suspended? (1) 1 month. (2) 2 months. b 3
months.[/b]
116 1 What is the penalty for weaving in and out of traffic or doing a wheelie
on a motorcycle? b The rider will be fined and their driverās license
will be cancelled.[/b] (2) Their driverās license will be suspended. (3) The
rider will be fined.
Comment : Although the wheelie is indeed the mark of the fuckwit, does seem a bit disproportionate.
118 1 If a driver violates traffic rules and thus causes serious injury or death,
how long will their driverās license be suspended? (1) 3 to 6 months. (2)
1 to 2 months. (3) 2 to 4 months.
Comment : Erā¦cf wheelie above??
122 1 If motorcyclists are caught using hand-held cell phones, computers, or
other similar devices to call, talk, digitally communicate, or do other
actions that might hinder driving safety, how much is the fine? (1) 1,000
NTD (2) 1,500 NTD (3) 2,000 NTD.
123 3 If a motorcycle owner knowingly allows a drunk rider to use their
motorcycle, in addition to receiving a fine, how long will their
motorcycle registration be suspended? (1) One month. (2) Two months.

applicants must be (1)16 years or older. (2)18 years or older. (3) 20
years or older.
128 2 If a driver passes another vehicle, makes a U-turn, backs up or drives in
reverse, or stops their vehicle on a railroad crossing, in addition to
receiving a fine, how many traffic violation points will they receive on
their driving record? (1) 1 b 3[/b] (3) 5.
129 1 If a driver forces their way through a railroad crossing, b they will be
fined and receive 3 traffic violation points on their driving record.[/b] (2)
their driverās license will be cancelled. (3) they will only be fined.
130 2 If an automobile driver has received 6 traffic violation points on their
driving record within 6 months, how long will their driverās license be
suspended? (1) 6 months. (2) 1 month. (3) 1 year.
131 3 If an automobile driver has received traffic violation points on their
driving record and their driverās license was suspended twice within a
year for breaking the traffic laws, in addition to receiving more traffic
violation points on their driving record, how will they be punished if
they are caught breaking the traffic laws again? (1) They will be fined.
(2) Their diverās license will be suspended for one month. b Their
driverās license will be cancelled.[/b]
Comment : 3 strikes and youāre out
132 2 If a large motorcycle with displacement over 550cc breaks down when
traveling on an expressway, or has an emergency that renders it unable to continue traveling, in addition to immediately notifying the road administration authority or police to request assistance, the driver is required to turn on the warning lights, move the motorcycle off the road, and place a breakdown sign how many meters behind the motorcycle to allow other vehicles to see the motorcycle from 200 meters away at night? (1) 50 meters; b 100 meters[/b]; (3) 200 meters.
135 2 The higher the speed, the longer the braking distance. If the speed
doubles, the required braking distance (1) doubles. b is 4 times greater.[/b]
(3) is 8 times greater.
136 2 As speed increases, the driverās field of view (1) remains the same. b
becomes narrower.[/b] (3) becomes wider.
Comment : Physically this canāt be true. Mentally, maybe
145 3 Which of the following is mandatory for motorists who drive large,
heavy motorcycles more than 550 cc on highways or expressways? (1)
They must drive in the designated sections as required by the Ministry
of Transportation and Communications (2) They must drive during the
designated hours as required by the Ministry of Transportation and
Communications i All of the above[/i]
Comment: Are LHMCās time restricted? Probably not , but if they were youād have to do as you were told, so I suppose its not wrong
146 3 Which of the following is required for motorists who drive large, heavy
motorcycles more than 550 cc on highways? (1) Motorists must have a
license for large, heavy motorcycles more than 550 cc for more than a
year (2) Motorists must have at least a small vehicle license b All of
the above.[/b]
Comment : 1 is impossible, so this is a mistake. They meant āheavy motorcycleā
Oh waitā¦probably isnāt. They mean you have to have a LHMC ticket for a year before you can take it on a freeway (if you could) or expressway. I was mixing that with the need for a HMC ticket for a year before you can get a LHMC ticket. My mistake.
147 2 How much are motorists who drive large, heavy motorcycles more than
550 cc on highways fined if they drive side by side in the same lane or
overtake another car? (1) 3,000 NTD b 6,000 NTD[/b] (3) 12,000 NTD
Comment : Seems to imply LHMCās canāt overtake, but probably just means they shouldnāt overtake without changing lanes.
148 1 To pass the blood alcohol level test, the breathalyzer test must show that
a driverās blood alcohol level does not exceed: (1) 0.15mg / liter (2) 0.25
mg / liter (3)0.55 mg / liter
Selected Mechanical Knowledgee Choice Q+A
In the ārealā world, mechanical questions would be āuniversalā, since mechanical realities pretty much are (with perhaps minor variations due to climate).
This would mean that, if you had reasonable mechanical knowledge, you could rely on answering these questions correctly.
However, this isnāt the real world. This is Taiwan, where, due to a combination of bizarre content (so much HGV/diesel stuff in a motorcycle test?), translation problems, Chinglogic, and perhaps culturally imposed cluelessness, this bit isnāt very straightforward.
This selection attempts to pick questions that one might, with a reasonable level of mechanical knowledge, still get wrong.
In many cases this would be because the āofficialā answer (and/or the question) is, IMO, absolute bollocks.
(Note: The single digit after the 3-digit question number indicates the ācorrectā answer)
002 3 Diesel engine compression refers to (1) compressing pure diesel fuel. (2)
compressing a mixture of air and diesel fuel. (3) compressing pure air.
Comment : presumably because the fuel is injected separately, but at some points in the cycle a mixture is being compressed.
005 2 Which of the following is the normal operating temperature of a diesel engine?(1) 70 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. (2) 75 to 95 degrees Celsius. (3) 140 to 180 degrees Celsius.
Comment : presumably refers to coolant temp.
009 2 If the vehicle runs out of diesel fuel when the engine is running, you need to (1)add fuel to the tank. (2) fill up the fuel tank and get rid of any air in the fuel lines.(3) Both statements are correct.
Comment : Since 1 is contained in 2, Both statements are in fact, and inevitably, correct.
012 1 If the air pressure in the tires is too low, which of the following will happen? (1) The sidewalls of the tires will wear out faster. (2) The tire treads will wear down faster. (3) This will have no damaging affect on the tires.
Comment : Simplistic. Itāll be 1 and 2
018 3 If brake oil in one braking system of a dual-braking system is leaking, what will happen? (1) The braking system will still work for three tires. (2) Both of the breaking systems will fail completely. (3) The brakes will still work for the tires on one end of the car.
Comment : IIRC the split is usually diagonal, so this is wrong
027 1 If the clutch pedal gap increases too much, (1) you will have hard time shifting.(2) the engine will put out less horsepower (Hp). (3) the clutch will slip.
Comment : I suppose āclutch pedal gapā means pedal free travel
029 1 The air pressure difference between the two double-mounted tires at the rear of a large truck should not be higher than (1) 5%. (2) 15%. (3) 25%. Otherwise, the tires will more easily have a blowout.
Comment: This is a motorcycle test question?
031 1 To park a manual drive vehicle, you must shift into (1) Park Ā§. (2) Reverse Ā®). (3) Neutral (N) and use the hand (emergency) brake at the same time.
Comment : āmanual drive vehiclesā donāt have (1) Park Ā§ so this is wrong
032 3 Under normal driving conditions, the engine temperature (1) is higher in the winter. (2) is lower in the summer. (3) varies.
Comment : not by much
039 3 What kind of oil do you put in a 4-stroke engine? (1) Oil mixed with gasoline.(2) Lubrication oil. (3) Regular oil.
Comment : Meaningless Q + A / distinction
040 3 What is the normal color of smoke discharged by a 4-stroke gasoline engine? (1) Black. (2) Blue and white. (3) Itās colorless.
Comment : Then it isnāt āsmokeā
046 2 How do you make it impossible to start a gasoline engine? (1) Cut off the fuel supply. (2) Disable the spark plugs. (3) Reduce the master cylinder pressure.
Comment : 1+2 will both do it, unless you consider that an engine started on residual fuel has had its fuel supply cut off. (it hasnāt, not yet)
049 2 What are the advantages of having a turbocharger? (1) It improves the
performance of an idling engine. (2) It enhances the performance of an engine
running at medium or high speeds. (3) It improves the performance of an engine running at a constant speed.
Comment : 3 also true.
057 2 If the fluid level in the overflow tank of the cooling system gets too high, itās
probably because (1) the radiator is leaking. (2) the radiator cap was not completely tightened. (3) the vehicle cooling system doesnāt have a thermostat.
Comment : Uh?
059 3 The air filter is designed to (1) prevent dust from getting into the cylinders. (2) prevent combustion and fire in the exhaust pipe. (3) Both statements are correct.
Comment : WTF? - I suppose this is a mis-translated / misunderstood reference to a āflame arrestorā function of the air filter in the event of a backfire. Dunno if modern paper elements are really effective in that role, but I suppose ye olde wire mesh/oilbath ones might have been.
Still wouldnāt start a āfire in the exhaust pipeā, unless the engine was running backwards and the intake manifold became the exhaust pipe. This super-esoteric situation (in a diesel) actually appears as a test question elsewhere:
In a MOTORCYCLE test, already. 
062 1 Which is the best cooling water for engines? (1) Distilled water. (2) Hard water.(3) Water mixed with minerals.
Comment : Iāve seen this disputed, but I suppose its received opinion
066 2 If you use the clutch too often, which of the following parts will probably
become damaged? (1) The clutch bearings. (2) The clutch. (3) The clutch fork.
Comment : Assuming you can āuse the clutch too oftenā (?) why not all of them?
067 2 When clutch is worn out, it (1) becomes looser. (2) becomes tighter. (3) makes no difference.
Comment : Dunno what ā(2) becomes tighter ā means. Suppose the pedal travel is reduced?
069 3 If thereās no gap between the brake pedal and the floorboard, the (1) brakes wonāt function well. (2) the brakes will function better. (3) the brakes will stick and not work.
Comment : Meaningless question/distinction
070 1 The clutch in a rear-wheel drive vehicle is located (1) in front of the
transmission. (2) behind the transmission. (3) inside the transmission.
Comment : ātransmissionā is apparently being mis-translated as gearbox here ( or thatās American English? ā which is sort of an institutionalised mis-translation) because the clutch is part of the transmission.
077 2 If you drive a car normally, as the mileage increases, the clutch will (1) gradually become looser. (2) gradually become tighter. (3) remain the same.
Comment : Again, dunno what ā(2) become tighter ā means here. Suppose the pedal travel is reduced?
080 1 The longer you drive a vehicle, the gap between the brake pedal and the
floorboard (1) will become larger. (2) will become smaller. (3) stay the same.
Comment : Uh? Pretty sure hydraulic brakes are self-adjusting and the brake pedal height should not change with pad/shoe wear, though the level of brake fluid in the master cylinder reservoir drops. This isnāt a ref to cable-brakes on mcās, since they donāt have āfloorboardsā. Scooters do but hardly any of them have brake pedals.
081 2 Unbalanced tires are likely to cause (1) the engine to seriously vibrate. (2) the car to pull to one side during braking. (3) nothing.
Comment : Iād bet on 3 (in reality, not in this test)
087 2 You should change the engine oil and the transmission fluid (1) when the engine is shut off and cold. (2) after you have started the vehicle and the engine is starting to warm up. (3) anytime, no matter whether the engine is hot or cold.
Comment : This implies you change fluids with the engine running, FFS
092 3 The differential in a front-wheel drive vehicle is located (1) behind the clutch. (2) at the rear end of the drive shaft. (3) inside the transmission.
Comment : 1 and 3
093 3 Which of the following is the main purpose served by rear axle ratio? (1) To make it easier to reduce speed. (2) To enable the left and right wheels to spin at different speeds when turning. (3) Both statements are correct.
Comment : Both statements are utter bollocks, as is the question
096 1 If you get grease on your tires, you should clean the grease off with (1) clean water. (2) regular gasoline. (3) diesel.
Comment : Good luck with that
108 3 Battery fluid consists of (1) pure sulfuric acid. (2) distilled water. (3) sulfuric acid mixed with distilled water.
Comment : Ambiguous: could be either 2 or 3. Stuff you buy labeled ābattery fluidā is distilled water
127 2 If you remove the battery terminal cables when the engine is running, which of the following will burn out? (1) The battery. (2) Any electrical devices turned on at that time. (3) The ignition coil.
Comment : due to unfiltered voltage spikes from the alternator
128 1 A fuel injection engine is ignited by (1) spark plugs. (2) a glow plug. (3) high temperature self-combustion.
Comment : Should say āgasoline fuel injection engineā, to exclude diesels
132 1 If the alternator starts making a squeaking noise, (1) either the bearings are worn out or the front axle is bent. (2) thereās too much spring action in the carbon brush spring. (3) thereās not enough spring action in the carbon brush spring .
Comment : āFront axleā presumably is supposed to mean alternator rotor shaft here
From the Mechanical Knowledgee Simulated Test
Vehicles are more fuel efficient when driven at high speeds. Therefore, you should drive as fast as you want.
I said F, they say T??
A very dirty air filter will cause the vehicle to burn more fuel and have less engine power (Hp).
I say T, they say F??
Before you check the oil, you should park your car on a flat area and only check the oil while the engine is still running.
They say T, which is nuts
With an ABS braking system, itās easier to control the vehicle when you stop abruptly.
They say F. Whatās it for, then?
Seems to be pretty random.
Have you looked at the new updated car Test?
thb.gov.tw/sites/ch/modules/ ā¦ a55d709ed3
The Road Rules - multiple choice part is insanely difficult, they now include the punishment for every road infraction, despite them being all almost identical (look for category ā2ā questions). 460+ questions, and now a majority are now not only non-guessable, but they require some serious memorization.

Thatās next. I passed the old one a while ago, but failed the car āpracticalā a couple of times, and have just driven on an IDP. I donāt like the sound of your description AT ALL.
However, āinsanely difficultā, while itās bad news if you want to pass the test, is sort-of justifiable/acceptable.
Whatās hard to accept, from anā¦erā¦western perspectiveā¦is having to learn stuff that is meaningless and/or demonstrably/obviously WRONG.
This exercise is tending to confirm my guesses about the cultural reasons for the attitudes of my students here.
Lip service to ācritical thinkingā in syllabi notwithstanding, in general they REALLY donāt like to think, and donāt expect to have to. They resent it as an unusual and unreasonable imposition.
This MIGHT be because they have been subjected to this sort of shite all their lives, and have found that thinking has no utility.

I think it is really important to get a drivers license. If you get into an accident without one the fines are huge and you will be financially held responsible even if it is not your fault. The hospital is if you live in Hsinchu. If you live in another city, just find out what hospital you need to go to.
-
First go to RT mart or another place that takes pictures (get a set that has half large pictures and half small pictures ) It mentions which ones can be used for a license. You need this for your medical and your drivers test.
-
Second, go for a medical at this hospital and be sure to tell them it is for your license. You can go at 8:30pm at night for sure (thatās when I went) and probably during the day also.
Hospital pin
ę°ēé«é¢
No. 120, Ximen St, North District
Hsinchu City, 300
- Study the following links:
For those of you interested in taking your driverās test, here is some info:
tealit.com/idl_dl/pdfs/Car%2 ā¦ e%20Choice.pdf
tealit.com/idl_dl/pdfs/Car%2 ā¦ or%20False.pdf
tealit.com/idl_dl/pdfs/Car%2 ā¦ tification01.pdf
tealit.com/idl_dl/pdfs/Car%2 ā¦ tification.pdf
- Go to the DMV in Hsinchu on a Wednesday or Friday at the following times to take the test:
8:40am, 10:40am, 12:40pm, or 3:40pm
Arrive about 20 minutes prior to that time so that you have time to pay and check in.
You will first take the written test on a computer (must get 85% or higher) and then the driving test.
You must pass the written part of the test to be able to move onto the driving part. If you fail, you must wait 7 days before you can retest.If you fail just the writing portion, you do not need to retake the written test, but be sure to keep all your paperwork.
Before taking the driving test refer to these videos first:
youtube.com/watch?v=āZYkTKyVDM
youtube.com/watch?v=jKKDh2LrNI0
youtube.com/watch?v=2X3tRH1UFls
Couple of tips: Be sure to open the car door slightly before getting in and check to the right and left before you get in (simulating checking for cars and scooters). Once you get in buckle your seat belt and lock the door. Then release the parking brake, put the car in drive and check all blind spots before proceeding. Be sure to use your turn signal on ALL turns, even when parallel parking. When driving into the S-shape, do not touch the sensors going forward, backing up it doesnāt matter.
Also, be sure to bring your ARC and driverās license from your home country to the DMV.
Hope this helps!
This doesnāt appear to make sense.
Of course, in THIS context, nonsense is par-for-the-course, so that doesnāt mean it isnāt true, but Iād guess you meant
āIf you just fail the driving/riding portion, you do not need to retake the written testā¦ā
OK, I know. WHY is such an uncool-uptight-western-anal-logical question. Butā¦erā¦WHY would I want to do that?
Pro - um- helps keep the door shut and bodyshell more rigid in a crash.
Pro - um - gives me some protection from baseball-bat wielding taxi-drivers.
Con - um - increases my chances of being trapped in a burning vehicle.
Is it actually specified in the Taiwan driving or test regulations? Should I insist the tester locks their door as well?
(Should I fix their door lock?)
Re the bullshit āMechanical Knowledg-gee Testā, Iād misunderstood/been mis-informed.
This test doesnāt seem to be part of the motorcycle test, since I wasnāt asked to do it when I sat the computer-based written bit.
Dunno who its for but Iād guess maybe truck drivers.
Damn!
One of those vids says you can no longer take the test using your own car.
When did they bring that one in?
Makes it MUCH more difficult, and of course a nice little monopoly-enhancer for the schools.
That actually makes sense though doesnāt it? Youāre not allowed to own a car until you have a valid driving license. Unsure if student driving license counts.
Also it removes some variables; I can imagine people breezing through the test in a tiny Smart car for example, or complaining their SUV doesnt fit on the track.
Yes you are (or were). Iāve bought (and registered) three without a Taiwan license. I had an IDP which was (sometimes) valid, but never had to produce it.
You probably can no longer register one in your name, but AFAIK that doesnāt stop you owning one.
It wouldnāt stop you being driven by a friend or instructor to a test centre either. You used to be able to test in your own car. Its mentioned in several older threads, and Iāve seen people doing it. Didnāt do it myself, because I didnāt have a car when I tried the test, and the unfamiliar semi-knackered car I rented didnāt help.
Currently you can use your own machine for the āordinaryā motorcycle test. They probably wonāt bother to change that for a while because thereās not so much money in it.
IF the test had any relevance to driving, IF that was the vehicle they were going to be driving on the road, then itād make most sense for them to be tested in it. IF an SUV doesnāt fit on the track, it tends to emphasise the irrelevance of the track.
It DOES make sense, though.
It makes sense, as I said, because it enhances the driving schools near-monopoly bizniz model, which is what the whole institutionalised scam is for.
What other function could the Taiwan driving test have?
Got one of the office-ladies to check for me (reinforcing my bloody-nuisance persona).
Apparently (usual lost-in-translation/YMMV caveats applied) you can still test in your own car in Tainan.
The fact that the opposite is on an official-looking video may be an indication of the shape of things to come though, and makes me think Iād better get my grades in and get testing.
As you were (probably)
The office lady above checked the website and told me it said I could test in my own car.
Hereās the webpage
mvdis.gov.tw/m3-emv/mustknow/car

I suggested the website might be out of date.
So she phoned the DMV and spoke to someone (?) who apparently confirmed I could test in my own car.
This morning I was in the Tainan DMV with the GF, asking about test times, and they apparently told her I could NOT test in my own car.
So it depends on who you talk to and /or how and where they they source and interpret the rules, which are written in Chinese, which probably gives them some smoke and mirrors capability.
But Iād guess our informant yesterday didnāt have the latest scoop on the scam.
SLightly offtopic but also kinda relatedā¦
Is it still true that the theory test is good enough for 50cc scooters, and no practice test is required?
Itās going to be much easier to get an International Driving Permit than to take the scooter exam in Taiwan to get a local TW license:
I put up an Anki deck for studying for the scooter written driving test here: ankiweb.net/shared/info/1274417947
I tagged about 120 questions as easy, medium, or hard, as well as a couple as both hard and wrong =). Focusing on the hard and medium ones should help you study a little more efficiently.
In July this year they added 1,000 questions to the scooter rules section, and I found it pretty tough to pass consistently, so I made this deck. Iāll create and share one for cars too.
If anyone wants to point out additional questions that are hard, please drop a comment here, thanks!!
