How the Teoriavalmis content is built
The Teoriavalmis content was prepared starting from the requirements: what a driving licence holder must know, be able to do and understand under laws and regulations. This page presents the structure of the knowledge base, the coverage of the content and an example of how a change in a source is updated in the content.
Knowledge base
Each question is linked to a point in a law or regulation
The Road Traffic Act, the driving licence legislation, Traficom's regulations and the applicable EU legislation were reviewed point by point. On that basis, requirements were recorded for what a driving licence holder must know, be able to do and understand. The study material, questions and picture tasks are linked to these requirements and sources.
Example: driving a tractor on a motorway
A graph of the Teoriavalmis knowledge base. The points represent laws and official sources, source notes, road signs, requirements, study material, questions and picture tasks. The lines represent the stored references between them.
The picture shows a sample of the knowledge base. Each point represents one item and each line a stored reference.
- LawRoad Traffic Act, section 58: permitted vehicle traffic on motorways and semi-motorways
- Source noteA vehicle whose maximum permitted or maximum design speed is no more than 70 km/h may not be driven on a motorway or a semi-motorway.
- RequirementAn ordinary category T tractor is not driven on a motorway or a semi-motorway, because its speed is no more than 70 km/h.
- Study material · TIs the route suitable for your vehicle?
- Question · T
You are driving a tractor with a maximum design speed of 40 km/h. Your satnav suggests a route along the motorway. Are you allowed to use the motorway?
- AYes, if you drive in the far right-hand lane and keep a steady speed.
- BYes, you may use the motorway outside built-up areas if traffic is light.
- CNo, because a vehicle limited to 70 km/h or less may not use a motorway.
Correct answer: C
Coverage
Every learning objective has study material and at least one question
The learning objectives for the verbal part of the theory test were recorded on the basis of laws and regulations. Missing study material or questions are added before publication.
Learning objectives by topic area
| Topic area | Moped licence AM/120 | Tractor licence T |
|---|---|---|
| Road traffic regulations | 151 | 117 |
| The driver | 10 | 8 |
| The road | 6 | 2 |
| Other road users | 13 | 7 |
| General rules and regulations and other matters | 24 | 29 |
| Precautions necessary when alighting from the vehicle | 2 | 1 |
| Mechanical aspects with a bearing on road safety | 25 | 18 |
| Vehicle safety equipment | 14 | 21 |
| Rules regarding vehicle use in relation to the environment | 19 | 32 |
Not every requirement applies to every driving licence category
The exclusions have been made carefully with the driving licence categories in mind, and each exclusion has a recorded justification. Examples of exclusions for the moped licence:
- Driving situations with a light quadricycle→ A light quadricycle belongs to a different driving licence category (AM/121).
- Rules for driving on a motorway→ Mopeds may not be driven on a motorway.
- Responsibilities in commercial transport→ These belong to professional transport.
The figures concern the verbal part of the theory test. Covered means that the learning objective has study material and at least one published question. As of 15 November 2026.
The picture tasks cover all 10 topic areas of the theory test's traffic situation pictures
- Driving straight ahead
- Turning right
- Turning left
- Giving way when driving straight ahead
- Giving way when turning right
- Giving way when turning left
- Overtaking
- Changing lanes
- Stopping
- Parking
Source change
When a law or regulation changes, the references show how the change affects the content
The example is Traficom's new regulation that concerns, among other things, the construction and equipment of mopeds.
