Long vehicles swing out before turning, buses need room to pull away, and trams cannot steer around you at all. Motorcycles feature because their small profile makes them easy to miss at junctions and in queuing traffic. Once you're passing this topic comfortably, try a [full mock test](/theory/mock-test) under real timed conditions, brush up on [UK road signs](/theory/road-signs), or browse the [full question bank](/theory/questions). Ready to drive? See our [intensive driving courses](/courses). ## Other types of Vehicle Question 1 of 22 ### It is harder to overtake a large vehicle than a car. Why is this? A The large vehicle will take longer to accelerate B The large vehicle will have a speed limiter C The large vehicle will have air brakes D It will take longer to overtake the large vehicle Previous ## What the DVSA tests on other types of vehicle - Long vehicles swinging wide at junctions and roundabouts - Overtaking lorries and the spray and buffeting involved - Buses pulling out and priority at bus stops - Trams, tram lanes and the surfaces around rails - Slow agricultural vehicles on rural roads ## Common mistakes in this topic - Filling the gap when a lorry moves right to turn left - Overtaking a tram on the wrong side or crossing rails at a shallow angle - Following a large vehicle closely and losing sight of its mirrors - Cutting in too soon after overtaking a long vehicle **Instructor tip:** If you cannot see a lorry driver's mirrors, assume the driver cannot see you — that logic answers most of this band. ## Passed your theory? Get the practical booked 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.
