Safety tips and traffic rules aren’t the only things you need to know before heading to the British Columbia driver licensing office to pass your learner’s permit knowledge exam. The BC Driver Handbook also includes information about fines, penalties, DUI regulations, and reasons a BC driver might lose his or her driving privileges. The BC Fines, Limits and Regulations test below will help you boost your knowledge of the rules of the road and what will happen if you break them. Just like the other BC driving practice tests, the Fines and Regulations test provides potential drivers with a hint and an explanation of the correct answer for each of the 50 questions.
