About the Saskatchewan knowledge test

Before you can get a learner's licence in Saskatchewan (Class 7, then Class 5), you have to pass SGI's knowledge test. It checks that you know the rules of the road and can read road signs. The practice tests on this page use the same format, and every answer comes with a short explanation.

What the test covers

Sample questions

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

In Saskatchewan, when there are no speed limit signs, the speed limit is:

80 km/h

In the absence of signs, the speed limit is 80 km/h under ideal conditions.

Two vehicles arrive at the same time at an intersection with no signs or signals. Who goes first?

The vehicle on the right

At an uncontrolled intersection, the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right. This also applies at T-intersections.

What is the maximum speed when passing a tow truck or emergency vehicle that is stopped with its lights flashing?

60 km/h

Saskatchewan's slow-to-60 law also applies to Ministry of Highways equipment with lights flashing, and to tow trucks stopped with amber (or amber and blue) lights flashing.

The minimum following distance recommended in Saskatchewan is:

Three seconds

When the vehicle ahead passes a fixed point, count; you should not reach the point in less than three seconds.

What is the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) for a driver in the graduated licensing program (learner and novice)?

Zero

New drivers have zero tolerance for alcohol.

What does a five-sided (pentagon) sign mean?

A school zone or school crosswalk

The pentagon shape is reserved for school zones and school crosswalks. Watch for children and obey the posted school-zone speed.

If a red traffic light is flashing, you must:

Stop completely, then go when it is safe, as at a stop sign

Treat a flashing red light the same as a stop sign.

How to study

  1. Read the official Saskatchewan Driver's Handbook from SGI.
  2. Take a practice test for each part. Each one is a fresh set of questions you haven't seen yet.
  3. Review the questions you missed, then use Smart practice to drill your weak topics.
  4. When you pass both parts several times in a row, you're ready to book the real test.
