Sample Alberta Class 7 Test Questions
What does a flashing green light at an intersection mean?
A flashing green light means you have the right-of-way to go straight or turn. Oncoming traffic faces a red light. Pedestrians may still be crossing, so proceed with caution.
How many metres before a turn must you signal in Alberta?
You must signal at least 30 metres before turning in a residential area, and 150 metres before turning on a highway. Always signal before changing lanes.
What is the minimum following distance on a highway in Alberta?
The recommended following distance is at least 2 seconds behind the vehicle in front. In poor conditions (rain, snow, fog), increase to 4–6 seconds. Use the two-second rule: pick a fixed point and count after the car ahead passes it.
What is the speed limit in a school zone in Alberta?
The speed limit in a school zone is 30 km/h during school hours (8:00 AM–5:00 PM on school days). Always watch for children and crossing guards.
What should you do when you see a stopped school bus with flashing red lights?
Stop your vehicle at least 20 metres away from the school bus and wait until the red lights stop flashing and the stop arm is withdrawn before proceeding. This applies to both directions on undivided roads.

Common Alberta Class 7 Test Mistakes
- Guessing on road signs — Signs account for ~30% of the test. Memorize the shape, colour, and meaning of every sign.
- Forgetting the auto-stop rule — The test ends at 6 wrong answers. Rushing increases errors. Read every question carefully.
- Not knowing GDL restrictions — Class 7 curfew, zero BAC, and supervisor rules are always tested.
- Skipping the handbook — Many questions use exact wording from the Alberta Driver's Handbook. Read it at least once.
- Only using one study mode — Use Exam Mode to simulate test conditions, Practice Mode to learn from explanations, and Smart Mode to focus on weak areas.
