Get answers to common questions learners have about practising Special Traffic Zones. This section highlights what is tested, how practice helps, and how to improve your results for the Dutch driving theory exam in the Netherlands.

What are 'special traffic zones' in the Dutch driving theory exam?

Special traffic zones refer to areas with specific rules and signage, such as woonerven (residential areas), speelvelden (playground zones), and zones with environmental speed limits. Understanding these is essential for the Dutch theory test.

Why are woonerven and shared spaces tricky for the theory test?

Woonerven and shared spaces often have unique priority rules and lower speed limits where pedestrians and cyclists may have more freedom. These nuances can be challenging, so targeted practice is key for the theory exam.

Are there special speed limits in these zones?

What is the difference between a woonerf and a regular street?
