Alberta Class 7 Practice Test: Free Knowledge Test Practice

About the Alberta Class 7 knowledge test

In Alberta you can get a Class 7 learner's licence from age 14. To get it, you pass a vision screening and a knowledge test at a registry agent office. The test is 30 multiple-choice questions on safe driving, driving laws and road signs, all mixed together. The full practice test on this page works the same way, and every answer comes with a short explanation from the Alberta Driver's Guide.

Sample questions

A few questions from the practice bank. Tap one to see the answer.

Unless otherwise posted, the maximum speed limit on a roadway within an urban area is:

50 km/h

Municipalities may set different limits by bylaw, so watch for signs.

Unless otherwise posted, the speed limit in a school zone when it is in effect is:

30 km/h

Both urban and rural school zones are 30 km/h unless another speed is posted.

Unless other times are posted, playground zones are in effect:

Every day from 8:30 a.m. to one hour after sunset

Playground zones apply every day of the year during these hours, unless the municipality posts other times.

When passing an emergency vehicle or tow truck stopped with its lights flashing, in the lane next to it you must slow to:

60 km/h or the posted speed, whichever is lower

This applies to the lane or lanes immediately next to the stopped vehicles. Speeding fines there are doubled.

During which hours may a Class 7 learner not drive?

Midnight to 5 a.m.

Driving during curfew costs two demerit points for a learner.

A school bus on an undivided highway has its red lights flashing and stop arm out. You must stop about how far away?

20 metres

About four to five car lengths, so drivers behind you can see the lights and students crossing.

Under normal conditions, the minimum following distance is:

Two seconds

Increase it when conditions are less than ideal.
