Free Incidents, Accidents & Emergencies mock theory test

1. Straight away, so they can breathe more easily
2. Only if it's essential — for example, to restore breathing
3. As soon as the ambulance is called
4. Whenever the rider asks, regardless of injuries

Answer: B. Removing a helmet can worsen head and neck injuries. Leave it on unless it's essential to keep the casualty's airway open, and get medical help urgently. Reference: The Highway Code — rule 283 and Annexe 7: First aid on the road

1. At least 45 metres, on the same side of the road
2. 5 metres, next to the boot
3. At least 150 metres, on the opposite side
4. Warning triangles are illegal in the UK

Answer: A. Place the triangle at least 45 metres (147 feet) behind the vehicle on the same side of the road to give approaching drivers time to react. Never use one on a motorway. Reference: The Highway Code — rule 274

1. Nothing further, provided you stopped
2. Report it to your insurer within 30 days only
3. Report it to the police as soon as reasonably practicable, and within 24 hours
4. Leave a note on the other vehicle

Answer: C. You must always stop at a collision involving injury or damage. If you don't give your details to anyone with reasonable grounds to ask, you must report to the police as soon as practicable — at most within 24 hours. Reference: The Highway Code — rules 286–287

1. When you're being towed
2. On a motorway or unrestricted dual carriageway, briefly, to warn drivers behind of a hazard or obstruction ahead
3. Whenever you're driving slowly
4. When parking on double yellow lines

Answer: B. Hazard lights are for when you're stationary causing a temporary obstruction — the one moving exception is briefly warning traffic behind of a hazard ahead on a motorway or unrestricted dual carriageway. Reference: The Highway Code — rule 116

1. Drive quickly to the nearest garage
2. Open the bonnet fully to cool the engine
3. Pull over safely, get everyone out and away, and call the fire service — don't fully open the bonnet
4. Pour water over the engine immediately

Answer: C. Opening the bonnet feeds a fire with air. Stop somewhere safe, get everyone well clear, and call 999. Only tackle a very small, accessible fire if you can do so without risk. Reference: The Highway Code — rule 280 and Annexe 7

1. Bleeding
2. Breathing — check for normal breathing for up to 10 seconds
3. Burns
4. Bones

Answer: B. Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation/Compressions. After opening the airway, check for normal breathing; if there is none, start chest compressions and send for help. Reference: The Highway Code — Annexe 7: First aid on the road

1. Apply firm pressure over the wound with a clean pad and raise the limb if possible
2. Wash the wound with water and leave it uncovered
3. Apply a tourniquet immediately
4. Give them a hot drink

Answer: A. Firm, direct pressure with the cleanest material available slows serious bleeding, and raising a limb (if it isn't fractured) helps further. Keep pressure on until help arrives. Reference: The Highway Code — Annexe 7: First aid on the road

1. Stop on the carriageway and pick it up quickly
2. Reverse along the hard shoulder to retrieve it
3. Stop at the next emergency telephone and report it — never try to retrieve it yourself
4. Carry on and report it when you get home

Answer: C. Never stop on the carriageway or walk on a live motorway for a dropped load. Use the next emergency phone (or 999 in an emergency area) so the operator can arrange safe removal. Reference: The Highway Code — rules 279–280
