The Nigeria Highway Code exam at a glance
To get a fresh driver's licence in Nigeria you must be at least 18, train at an FRSC-certified driving school and hold a learner's permit. Since 1 June 2021 the school's training ends with a computer-based theory test (CBT) on the Highway Code: FRSC's July 2021 announcement gives 35 multiple-choice questions in 30 minutes, with 60% needed to pass and a retake after 7 days. You also need a visual acuity and medical fitness certificate, a practical driving test and biometric capture at a Driver's Licence Centre. A learner may drive only with a licensed driver or instructor beside them.

Updated by the Tigertest team. Practice questions follow FRSC's CBT announcement of 8 July 2021 and the National Road Traffic Regulations 2012, checked October 2026. Tigertest's 50-question tests and 75% target are its own, not FRSC figures. Exam rules change, so confirm current details with FRSC: Computer Based Test for licence applicants.
How It Works
Train by Topic
Five training sets cover the Highway Code from licence rules and road signs to expressways and first aid. Questions you miss come back until you have mastered them.
Four Mock Tests
Four 50-question tests with a 75% target, Tigertest's own mark set above FRSC's 60%. No question repeats across tests, and every answer explains the rule behind it.
Built on Nigeria's Own Road Rules
FRSC does not publish how many questions come from each topic, so each mock test follows the Highway Code and the National Road Traffic Regulations 2012, with road signs weighted heaviest. Every rule is Nigeria's own: driving on the right, overtaking on the left, anticlockwise roundabouts, the 45-metre warning triangle, child seats in the back, and no phone calls while moving.

Share FeedbackHow to Pass the Highway Code Test
1. Learn signs by shape first
Triangles warn, circles with a red border forbid, blue circles order, rectangles inform, and the eight-sided STOP sign stands alone. Once you know the shapes, most sign questions are half answered before you read the symbol.
2. Make a table of the numbers
The regulations are full of numbers: 18 for a private licence and 26 for a commercial one, a 45-metre minimum for warning triangles, 5 to 15 metres from the rail at a level crossing, no stopping within 8 metres of a corner, child seats up to age 7, a 2 kg extinguisher in every car, and no more than 5 hours of driving without a break. Write them in one table and quiz yourself.
3. Think right-hand traffic
Nigeria drives on the right, so you overtake on the left, a left turn crosses oncoming traffic, roundabouts run anticlockwise, and a broken-down car goes to the right-hand shoulder. Many wrong answers come from rules learned in left-hand-traffic countries.
4. Aim well above the pass mark
FRSC's CBT pass mark is 60%, but aim for 75% or more in every Tigertest mock test. Drill the questions you missed, retrain your weakest set, then take all four tests before your driving school books your CBT.
Nigeria Driving Test Frequently Asked Questions
What is the theory test for a Nigerian driver's licence like?
Since 1 June 2021 every fresh applicant takes a computer-based test (CBT) at their FRSC-standardised driving school before the school can issue a driving certificate. FRSC's July 2021 announcement says it is 35 multiple-choice questions in 30 minutes, you need 60% to pass, and if you fail you can retake it after 7 days. Check the current format with your driving school or FRSC, as it may have changed since then.
Why are the Tigertest mock tests 50 questions with a 75% target?
Longer tests cover more of the Highway Code in each sitting, and 75% is Tigertest's own target, set above the official 60% so that a pass here leaves a safety margin on the day. It is not an FRSC figure. If you can score 38 of 50 here on every test, the real CBT should hold no surprises.
What do I need to get a fresh driver's licence in Nigeria?
Under the National Road Traffic Regulations 2012 you must be at least 18 for a private licence. You need a learner's permit, training at an FRSC-certified driving school (26 sessions, with the CBT near the end), a visual acuity and medical fitness certificate, a practical driving test, and biometric capture at a Driver's Licence Centre, where you get a temporary licence valid for 60 days. A commercial licence needs you to be at least 26 and already hold a private licence.
What can I do while I hold a learner's permit?
You may drive only with a licensed driver or instructor sitting beside you in the front passenger seat, and you may carry no other passenger. Your vehicle must show the learner's sign: a red letter L on a white background.
Are these the real FRSC CBT questions?
No. Every question is original, written by Tigertest from the National Road Traffic Regulations 2012 and FRSC's own Highway Code material, so it tests the same rules without copying any official or driving school question bank. Signs are described in words, so study the sign pictures in the Highway Code too. It is free revision, not an official test, and it does not book or replace your CBT or driving test.
