What is worth knowing here
- Mountain passes and tunnel driving — gradient priority, tunnel lighting rules and convoy discipline all apply.
- Snow-season closures make the adverse-weather chapter directly practical.
The theory test
Most states run a short multiple-choice paper on a computer terminal — commonly 10 questions with 6 correct needed to pass, in about 10 minutes. Some states set a longer paper, and several now allow the test to be taken from home after an Aadhaar-based identity check.
