How to pass the AM licence questions
This bank holds 724 exam-style DGT questions updated for 2026 for the AM licence, organised in 5 topics. Each question includes the options, the correct answer and an explanation so you understand why and don't repeat the mistake.
The most effective strategy is to alternate three study modes: reading the syllabus, taking simulations under real conditions (20 questions, 20 minutes, max 2 errors) and reviewing the questions you got wrong. Failed questions enter the smart-review queue until you master them.
The questions update whenever the DGT changes the syllabus. The main 2026 updates concern new rules on personal mobility vehicles (VMPs), urban speed limits and the mandatory V-16 emergency light replacing warning triangles.
Frequently asked questions about the AM licence
- How many questions does the AM licence theory exam have?
- The AM licence theory exam has 20 multiple-choice questions, lasts 20 minutes and allows a maximum of 2 wrong answers to pass. The questions in this bank follow that format, but it is not the official DGT bank.
- What is the minimum age for the AM licence in Spain?
- The minimum age for the Spanish AM licence is 15. You can start studying and enrol at a driving school earlier, but the official exam only takes place once you reach this age.
- What vehicles can I drive with the AM licence?
- With the AM licence you can drive: Mopeds up to 50 cc and light quadricycles.
- How many practice simulations should I do before the AM exam?
- A rough benchmark is at least 15 full simulations in real format (20 questions, 20 minutes, max 2 wrong). In your last 5 consecutive simulations you should miss 1–2 questions at most before booking the official sitting.
