The picture now shows what the answer is based on
I added highlights to the picture questions. Once you have answered, the picture shows exactly the part that decides the answer.
No need to guess
In a picture question, the traffic situation is shown from the driver's position, and the question is answered yes or no. After you answer, a short explanation is shown. But the picture often has many signs, lights and road users, and the explanation does not always make it clear straight away which of them it refers to.
I did not want anyone to have to guess from the picture why their answer was right or wrong. That is why I added highlights to the pictures.
How it works
Once you have answered, a yellow frame appears around the part of the picture that the answer is based on, and the explanation is shown at the same time. No highlights are shown before you answer, so you still have to read the picture yourself.
An example from the practice exam: the indicator is signalling left, and the question is whether you are allowed to change lanes. The lane on the left looks free, but the answer is no. The lane is reserved for trams until you reach the End of tram lane sign. The highlight shows the sign and the point where the reservation ends.
Only what decides the answer
The highlight is carefully placed on exactly what matters in the picture, and on nothing else. If one sign decides the answer, there is one highlight. If what matters is which side of a traffic sign a vehicle is on, a line is drawn across the road from one edge to the other, level with the sign. In lane questions, the highlight follows the lane, so that lanes running side by side can be told apart.
Highlights are shown in picture practice and in the free trial straight after you answer. In the practice exam, they are only shown once you have finished the exam and are going through your answers. On a phone, you can also zoom in on the picture with your fingers.
