The format above is the one Government of Alberta sets, and it is on the page before anything else, because the numbers are what you plan around. Every row carries the record it was read from and the date it was checked.

  • Your 30 questions are drawn from a much larger pool, so no two sittings look the same.
  • Passing means 25 correct out of 30, which is 83 percent.
  • The kiosk stops the test the moment you reach 25 correct answers or 6 wrong ones, so it can end well before question 30.
  • Alberta lets you sit it from age 14, the earliest in Canada.
  • Registry agents set their own service charge, so the amount you pay varies a little by location.

  • 125 questions written for the Class 7 knowledge test, each with the authority it rests on
  • Free to sit, with no account and nothing held back until you pay
  • Every run free, with the whole bank open and no part held back

The real test is 30 questions. Nothing here is timed unless the real exam is timed, and nothing is held back except the answers the real exam holds back too.

One question from the bank, in full

The question, the answer marked, the reason it is the answer, and the authority it rests on. Nothing is held back on this page and nothing is held back in a run.

AlbertaRules of the road

You come to a residential intersection with no stop signs, no yield signs and no lights in any direction. A car reaches it from your left at the same moment you do. What should you do?

  1. Go ahead, since the driver on your left has to yield to you, but stay ready to stop if they keep coming
  2. Stop and wave the other driver through, because you got there together
  3. Sound your horn and take the intersection before they do
  4. Wait until the intersection is completely empty in every direction

The answer is A

At an intersection with no signs or lights, the driver on the left yields to the driver on the right, so the right of way is yours. Right of way is something another driver gives you rather than something you can take, so keep watching them until you are sure they are slowing.
