This is a very good way to prepare oneself for the theoretic test. I bought 48 hours access on prøve.no and took the tests anumber of times the last two days before my test. I had also read the book beforehand, and this combination was obviously correct for me; passed with 4 mistakes. I think the tests on this website were more difficult than the actual test. Gold!

Thank you so much for the fantastic help you have given me! Today I passed the theory class B on the first attempt, without stressing about it. I even thought you had harder questions than the actual theory test, many pluses from me!

Frequently asked questions

How many errors can you have on the theory test for light truck?

You can have a maximum of 5 errors out of 30 questions on the class C1 theory test, meaning you need to answer at least 25 of 30 correctly. The pass threshold is the same at Statens vegvesen.

How long does the theory test for light truck take?

You have 75 minutes for the class C1 theory test at Statens vegvesen. Most candidates finish in 30–50 minutes, but take your time — there is no bonus for finishing early.

How many questions are on the theory test for light truck?

The class C1 theory test has 30 questions covering braking technique, load securing, driving and rest time rules, vehicle technology, traffic rules and risk awareness for light trucks (3500–7500 kg).

How much does the theory test for light truck cost?

Statens vegvesen charges a fee for the theory test; you can find the current price on vegvesen.no. In addition there is the practical driving test, and professional drivers must complete the Driver CPC (yrkessjåførkompetanse).

Do I need professional driver qualification (YSK) to drive a light truck?

A class C1 driving licence lets you drive a light truck (3500–7500 kg) privately. For commercial freight transport you also need the professional driver qualification (YSK) — initial training plus 35 hours of continued training every five years. Prøve.no offers a YSK test.

Can I take the theory test for light truck in English or another language?

No. Statens vegvesen offers the class C1 theory test in Norwegian only (Bokmål and Nynorsk) – other languages exist only for certain light classes. You can apply for an adapted test, for example with audio support, extended time or an interpreter. Prøve.no has practice questions in Norwegian, English, Ukrainian, Polish and Arabic, so you can learn the material in your own language while getting used to the Norwegian wording you will meet at the exam.

What is the minimum age for a class C1 driving licence?

The minimum age for a light lorry (class C1) is 18. The age limits are set in the driving licence regulation (førerkortforskriften).

What happens if I fail the theory test?

If you fail the theory test, you must wait two weeks before taking a new theory test at Statens vegvesen.

How long is the theory test valid?

Once you have passed the theory test, you must pass the practical driving test within three years. If you do not, you must take the theory test again.

Where and how do I take the theory test?

You take the theory test at a traffic station (trafikkstasjon). You book an appointment on vegvesen.no after applying for a driving licence, and you must show valid ID. There is a fee for the test.

Are any aids handed out at the class C1 theory test?

At the test station you are handed a calculator, scrap paper and a pen or pencil for the calculation questions. Unlike class C, no road list (vegliste) is handed out at the C1 test – the weight questions are solved with plain arithmetic from figures you are given, such as those in the registration card. Your own aids are not allowed, except a dictionary.

Do I need a medical certificate for a class C1 licence?

Yes. Class C1 has group 2 health requirements, and you must provide a medical certificate from a doctor both the first time and at every renewal. The licence is issued for up to 5 years at a time. From age 66 it is issued at most until the day before you turn 71, and after 70 it is renewed one year at a time. You never re-sit the theory test at renewal — a new medical certificate is all that is needed.
