# Where on a motorway would you find green reflective studs?

DVSA-style practice question · Road and Traffic Signs

## The answer options

-   Between the carriageway and hard shoulder 
-   Between the central reservation and carriageway 
-   At slip-road exits and entrances**Correct** 
-   Between driving lanes 

## Why that is the answer

Green reflective studs indicate where slip roads leave and join the main motorway carriageway, as well as entrances to laybys and service areas. They help drivers identify junctions in poor visibility or at night. Red studs mark the left edge of the carriageway next to the hard shoulder, while amber studs border the central reservation on the right. Remembering these colour codes from the Highway Code helps you stay positioned correctly.

## How this comes up in the real test

Questions from road and traffic signs appear throughout the 50-question multiple-choice section, and the wording changes between versions. Learn the rule rather than the sentence: the DVSA can ask the same point from the opposite direction, and a memorised answer falls over the moment the phrasing moves.

The pass mark is 43 out of 50, so seven wrong answers is your entire margin. If a whole category is shaky, run the topic practice below until you are getting every question right for the right reason, then go back to full mocks under the clock.

Your theory certificate lasts two years. Most learners who use it quickly do it with an intensive course — a block of hours with a DVSA approved instructor and a practical test at the end, instead of one lesson a week for months.
