JPJ Undang-undang Test Passing Tips

Tips to Passing JPJ Undang-undang Test

After attending JPJ’s 5 hours course on “Undang-undang”, most potential students sit for the test on Rules and Regulations.

Though this simple test can easily be attempted by most, nonetheless, some find this test slightly difficult to pass.

The passing mark required is 42. Some failed this test by 1 or 2 marks. Thus, they have to attempt this test twice or thrice over.

As such, my intention in writing this article is to provide tips on how to pass this simple yet intriguing test at first go.

First of all, I’ve been involved as a lecturer for many years.

Therefore, I feel I have the experience and expertise to help those facing this predicament.

The paper itself is divided into 3 parts. Section A (the undang-undang section consists of 15 questions). Actually, this is the easiest section of the three. One should attempt to secure ALL 15 questions correct.

To pass, you should not make any mistake at all.

Section B (on Panduan Berhemat or Prevention of Accidents) comprises 25 questions. Questions are a little longer and slightly more difficult. Nevertheless, study this section carefully.

Being more difficult, you are therefore permitted to make 3 to 4 mistakes. But remember, nothing more than that.

Now, coming to Section C. This tests a student on what’s called the A.P.J 1987 (Akta Pengangkutan Jalan 1987) and the Demerit System. Many students ignore this section completely.

That is where the mistakes lies.

My advice is – this is where the problem exists. These two topics is the keystone to being a good driver. So study well these topics.

It’s not only important to the potential driver, but it is also the gateway to securing a PASS. Again, remember not to make more than 2 or 3 mistakes.

Bearing in mind you have made no mistakes in Section A, only 4 mistakes in Section B. And in Section C, 2 or 3 mistakes. Thus, with a total of 7 mistakes made, you are on the way to securing 42/43 marks required to pass this problematic test.

Try it out and see the difference.

Before approaching this test, make sure you are competent in computer. Seek your driving instructor or Institute’s assistance if you have to.

May my advice to you be of little bit of help to potential “L” drivers. Cheerios!

    Kenapa Undang2 M’sia tidak berkesan?..Skg ramai org tak patuh traffic light. Ini merbahaya kpd pegguna lain yg tak bersalah.
    Denda tak patuh undang2 jalan raya patut di naikkan kepada RM1500 min, tiada rayuan!! Di Qatar, denda nya RM6000. hasilnya amat berkesan! Tidak namapk org langgar trafic light

    I wish to enquire if my Commercial Vehicle No. BDK****(Toyota land Cruiser HZJ80R) can install the tint on the windscree glass. I sent my vehicle to the Puspakom for inspection (Official Resit No. 6140*** & Test Sheet No. A5166***) today at Puspakom Mak Mandin, Penang and Puspakom failed the vehicle solely for the windscreen glass tint which was installed some 8 years ago. In the past I managed to get through the Puspakom Bi-anual tests without fail on the tinted windscreen.

    If such commercial vehicles are not allowed to install tint on the windscreen at all then I would abide by the ruling and dismantle the tint. However, if such vehicle are allowed the tint installation with certain test criteria then I wish to send my commercial vehicle to the relevant JPJ or Puspakom test centres for test again because the Puspakom tester did not use any equipment/apparatus to test the tint but merely said tint was not allowed. I believe the tint on the said commercial vehicle belongs to the allowable level and that is why I wish to check out.

    I sincerely hope that JPJ can assist me with my enquiry and contact me at the above-mentioned email address.

    Thank you.

    I am seriously very confused. I am taking the computerised test in a few days and whatever resources given by the driving school make me pull out my hair. FIrst of all, my Malay is very poor as I have been living overseas till recently. Secondly, the English version of the KPP book is so thin as compared to the Malay one. Thirdly, THE ENGLISH IS SO BAD!!!! The grammatical errors, vocabualry mistakes and spelling errors are annoying me. I mean if u’re going to provide us with the option of taking the test in English, please ensure the resources are accurate. There are so many errors that I feel like just forgoing the test. Even the first day course I attended was all in Malay. Is there a proper English version of KPP? I feel like writing in to JPJ about the quality of the English resources though I doubt they will do anything about it. Someone please advise.

    • admin

      Dear Syed Fatimah,

      J.P.J. in fact has a K.P.P. book in English comprising approximately 150 pages. Obviously, your driving school has failed to provide you the above.

      You should have requested your K.P.P. lecturers to use “bi-lingual” for your advantage. However, whether the lecturers can do “bi-lingual” or otherwise is unknown.

      Your dismay over the entire K.P.P. is most understandable. My advise is, don’t give up so easily!

      Ignore grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, vocab inefficiency, whichever annoy you.

      A driving license is important. No matter what, you should attempt to get it.

      Best of luck.

        i tried to search for the english version of K.P.P….but no luck yet…. can u pls tel me where i can find the english version one…

        • admin

          Dear Fathimah,

          Seek your instructor’s help. The K.P.P. English version should be available from the van selling driving school materials. It comes on test days.

            Hello Cikgu Yap,
            I understadn completely how Fathimath Feels.
            I tried to get the English version fo rmy husband who is a foreigner and do not understand Malays Language. We registered with Inmaju (Seremban) as we heard they are handling all the driving test and such however the book (english version) is beyond words I can hardly understand what the question is my self. and it is a very simplified version o fhte malays book given.
            My husband took the test 3 tims and failed due to not being able to study the questions asked. there was nothing in the thin english book version that were tested other then the road signs.
            We went to the driving school and they said there is only this english book available and no others. We went to JPJ in Seremban and they said the new english book is not in stock anymore.
            So how can my husband get tis book? Any suggestions Cikgu?

    Saya nak ambil lesen memandu. Tapi saya takut akan kegagalan dalam ujian warna. Bagaimana saya ingin menghadapnya?

    • admin

      Saudara Ahmad Shafiq,

      hadiri kursus K.P.P. 5 jam. Semasa hadapi ujian komputer, anda akan hadapi ujian buta warna. Hendaklah positif. Belum tahu lagi lulus atau gagal.

      Selamat berjaya.

    esok saya ambil test computer uutuk lesen L. Saya takut tak lulus untuk exam nie..macam mane saya nak tangani masalah nie???

    • Cikgu Yap

      Saudari Natasha,

      Anda haruslah merasa yakin! Cuba jawab semua soalan. Tumpukan lebih perhatian kepada Section C (A.P.J. 87, Mata Demerit).

      Selamat maju jaya!

  6. Hamidah Bte Abdullah

    I will be taking the computer test for L soon but I am confused because my BM is not good and getting worried about it

    How do I overcome this fear

    • Cikgu Yap

      If your English is better, do it in English then.

    saya pernah dikenakan saman sewaktu berumur 17 tahun atas kesalahan tiada lesen memandu kereta,tapi masalahnya saman itu saya dah bayar 2 tahun lepas..tahun ni,lesen p saya dah matang,so saya nak tukar utk lesen penuh,tapi kenapa saya still diblacklist lg utk saman 2???mungkin sebab saya bawah umur ke masa itu??boleh tak cikgu bagitahu saya syarat saman memandu bawah umur utk budak yg umur berapa???

    • Cikgu Yap

      Adakah resit bayaran saman yang telah anda bereskan? Sekiranya ada, pergi ke pejabat J.P.J. berdekatan untuk selesaikan parkara ini.

    I am looking for computer Test in English on Google, but I haven’t found it. Pls tell me where to get it.
    Can I get it the CD for Computer test?

    • Cikgu Yap

      The computer test book in English & CD can be obtained from the van that sells driving school paraphernalia. It comes to the institutes only on test days. Make arrangements with a driving school instructor to assist you.

      • bayee

        Hi, does the Enlgish & CD available in all the driving test institutes in Malaysia ? I am in a small town Muar and going to Tangkak driving center, my driving instructor told me there is no English version. Any advice ? Thx !

        • Cikgu Yap

          Your instructor is unfortunately correct. English test books and CDs are only available from the van that comes to institutes once a week.

  9. Bryan

    I’m taking my undang test tomorrow, and I’m taking the English one but there’s no text book for the English version, there’s only a thin yellow book consists of the questions and answer, is that really good enough to help me pass the test? And compared to the Malay test, will the English one be easier or more difficult?

    • Cikgu Yap

      Your fate is in your own hands. And knowing there are few materials for English, yet you still choose it, well, what can I say?

  10. apaapasaja

    i have taken L and P car license,i thk 7yrs ago…but due to i’m very pressured and scared of driving, i very seldom drive…so i thought since i don’t drive i can choose not to renew my car license even after the 2yrs P license probation…

    but then wen im eager to drive back and so i go and renew my license which was ard another1yr later i thk,only then i find out tat i cant renew it already.

    so here,i want to ask is it i must retake the course about everything of the course which is the undang-undang, whatever test, driving on the road and etc??

    this because i’m working now and its hard for me to have anytime to take the course, everything from the starting again and i also have financial problem.

    rm700-1k is a big prob to me. i’m really regret that during that time,i din renew which is a lot cheaper and the time when i took the course which paid by my dad was just rm500….its so much cheaper compared to now…don’t really understand why is it so expensive….sigh

    • Cikgu Yap

      Your license has become null and void years ago. Though cost of taking a license has escalated to Rm700 – RM1000, you rally have no choice. You have to start from scratch and do everything all over again. Even though I would like to help, nothing much I can do except symphatise with you.

    there is one thing im wondering , i passed my undang test this month n im 17years old but haven reach my birthday that day i took the undang test ! then ! after my birthday , i went to khursus 6hours , for car one …then this uncle , told me that JPJ asked me to attend the motor khusus 6hours as well only can get my L license !! i was like WTH? is it how it works cikgu yap ?

    • Cikgu Yap

      You need not attend the motor 6 hour if you don’t want to. The choice is yours.

      • cheesun

        but the uncle said is a must , this is the problem =( he said : ‘JPJ tak bagi awak L license kerana hari itu u ambik undang test u belum birthday lagi , so kena hadir motor khusus 6 jam lagi ‘ !!! and he broke his promise today , he nvr fetch me and off his phone ==

        • Cikgu Yap

          Terserah kepada anda kepada siapa anda ingin mematuhi.

  12. Sara

    Hello, like cheesun, I took the undang-undang test before i turned 17. Will my results be valid or is there a rule stating that you have to be at least 17 to take the test? It would be a real inconvenience if I would have to take the test again when i turn 17. Also, if i fail to place the P sticker on my car, i would get a demerit of 10 points, but what if i am driving someone else’s car since i don’t have a car of my own? Thanks a lot Cikgu Yap.

    • Cikgu Yap

      Your undang result will last 1 year. If you have a car of your own or the car you borrow has No “P”, don’t drive.
