Question 398 · Traffic laws
A license of a new driver shall be extended for two years as a new driver license, if the driver was convicted of the following offence:
- Not stopping where a “right of way” signpost is placed.
- Not placing a “new driver” sign on the vehicle’s rear window.
- Driving a motor vehicle without valid insurance.
- Not stopping before a level crossing, when stopping is imperative.
Correct answer: Not stopping before a level crossing, when stopping is imperative.
Why this is the answer
Failing to stop before a railway crossing when the situation requires it is one of the serious new-driver offences. A conviction extends the new-driver period by two years instead of moving to a regular licence.
