Brian Test level 37: analysis of difficult questions and passing strategy

The question does not specifically mention the sign 2.1 (“Main Road”) on the circle, although many drivers subconsciously “think it out”. The test developers exploit this psychological effect.—>

3. Pedestrian on a zebra crossing with markings 1.14.3

Situation: A pedestrian is standing on the sidewalk at an unregulated crossing with markings 1.14.3 (zebra with a “ladder”). You are approaching at 40 km/h. Are you required to stop?

Correct answer: Yes, we must.

Why? Marking 1.14.3 stands for pedestrian crossing where it is forbidden to turn around and overtake. But the main thing is, according to clause 14.1 of the traffic rules, the driver must give way to a pedestrian entering the roadway. Moreover, even the one who took a step from the sidewalk is considered to have “entered”. The test often shows footage of a pedestrian it seems standing on the sidewalk, but in fact his foot is already on the markings.

4. ESP system: when can it be turned off?

Situation: You are driving on a snowy road, the car begins to slip. Is it possible to disable ESP (stability control system) to overcome the area?

Correct answer: Yes, but only for a short time and at a speed not exceeding 30 km/h.

Why? ESP may interfere with deep snow or sand, blocking the wheels at the moment of slipping. However, turning it off at high speed or on asphalt is dangerous - this will lead to loss of control during a sharp maneuver. The test often gives answer options like “you can never turn it off” or “you can always turn it off,” provoking an error.

5. Parking at sign 3.28 with sign 8.2.1

Situation: Sign 3.28 (“No parking”) with a sign 8.2.1 (“Area of Action”). Is it possible to stop here for 5 minutes with the engine running?

Correct answer: Yes, you can.

Why? Sign 3.28 prohibits parking lot (more than 5 minutes), but not stop. Tablet 8.2.1 indicates the area of validity of the sign, but does not change its meaning. The main thing is not to turn off the engine and do not leave the car unattended. This question tests knowledge difference between stopping and parking (clause 1.2 of the traffic rules).

Passing strategy: how to score maximum points

To successfully pass level 37, it is not enough to know the traffic rules - you need understand the logic of the test. Here is a proven strategy that driving school instructors use:

1. Tune in for the time: for the block “Dynamic situations” is given 20 seconds per question. If you don’t have time, skip it and come back later (if the test allows it).
2. Search for "keywords": Each question has 1-2 words that suggest the correct answer. For example, if it is mentioned markup 1.26 (“waffle iron”), the answer is related to the prohibition of stopping at the intersection.
3. Check the options "by contradiction": Eliminate obviously incorrect answers, and then choose from the remaining ones. For example, if in a question about overtaking there is an option “allowed in the absence of oncoming traffic,” it is almost always incorrect.
4. Control your emotions: The questions in the Psychology block are specifically designed to cause irritation. Breathe deeply and respond as neutrally as possible.

Study the latest changes in traffic rules (especially on markings for electric vehicles)|Practice on simulators with dynamic situations|Remember signs 1.13, 1.26, 5.14.1 - they are most common|Adjust the screen brightness - the test contains tasks with hard-to-see parts|Take a pen and paper to take notes (allowed according to the test rules)

-->

Professional advice: if you see a question about automatic transmissions or hybrid cars, pay attention to driving mode (for example, Eco or Sport). In 2026, tasks were added to the test where you need to choose the correct braking or acceleration strategy depending on the mode.

Common mistakes and how to avoid them

Analysis of test reports shows that 80% errors at level 37 are repeated from year to year. Here are the most common:

• 🚫 Ignoring signs under signs. For example, the sign 3.20 (“Overtaking is prohibited”) with a sign 8.4.1 (“Vehicle type”) applies only to trucks, but many answer that overtaking is prohibited for everyone.
• ⏱️ Rushing in dynamic tasks. In questions with animation (for example, sudden braking of the car in front) the first reaction is often wrong. It is better to wait 1-2 seconds and analyze the situation.
• 📏 Incorrect distance estimate. In problems with markup 1.12 (“stop line”), many people incorrectly determine where exactly they need to stop (before the line or before the sign).
• 🔋 Misunderstanding of ADAS. For example, they think that adaptive cruise control can completely replace the driver in a traffic jam.

Another common mistake is failure to take into account regional characteristics. For example, in Moscow and St. Petersburg there are additional restrictions for electric vehicles (markup 1.24.7 — “Charging for electric vehicles”), which drivers from the regions do not know. In the test, such questions are found in the “Markings and Signs” block.

⚠️ Attention: If the question mentions motorway (sign 5.1), remember that on it prohibited: reversing, practice driving, stopping outside special places and towing with a flexible hitch. Even experienced drivers often miss these nuances.

How to Prepare for Level 37: Helpful Resources

For effective preparation, it is not enough to solve traffic tickets. Here verified sourcesthat will help:

• 📚 Official website of the traffic police (section “Examination tickets”) - published there current changes in the tickets, which then appear in Brian Test.
• 🎥 YouTube channel "Russian Driving School" — there are analyzes of complex situations with animation, similar to level 37 tasks.
• 📱 Brian Test: Trainer app (available on Android and iOS) - simulates real questions with a timer.
• 📊 Forum "Drom" (section "Traffic Rules") — drivers share there screenshots of new questions and discuss the pitfalls.

Important: don't use "replies" (ready-made answers), which are distributed in telegram channels. Brian Testa Algorithm changes the order of questions and answer options for each user, so cheat sheets often lead to errors.

If you need to practice dynamic situations, we recommend simulators like Euro Truck Simulator 2 (it realistically models the behavior of other road users) or Assetto Corsa with mod Traffic Density.

⚠️ Attention: In 2026, a block of questions on interaction with unmanned vehicles (for example, how to behave if a car is driving ahead with the mode turned on Autopilot). These tasks are not yet included in standard traffic rules tickets, but they can be found in specialized courses (for example, on the platform Stepik).

What to do if you haven't passed level 37?

It's normal not to pass level 37 on the first try. According to statistics, only 35% of users cope without retaking. Here's what to do if you're among the remaining 65%:

1. Analyze errors: After a failed attempt, the test shows which blocks you scored the lowest in. Concentrate on them.
2. Change your strategy: If you were in a hurry, try answering more slowly, and vice versa.
3. Use the 5 Second Method: Before choosing an answer, close your eyes for 5 seconds and imagine the situation in real life. This helps avoid automaticity.
4. Try another device: Some users note that questions are perceived differently on a tablet or PC than on a phone.

If you don't pass several times in a row same question, most likely the problem is in it wording. Try:

• 🔍 Read the question carefully out loud - often when voicing, ambiguity becomes clear.
• 📌 Write it down on paper all key details: signs, markings, speed, weather conditions.
• 🤔 Think about what you would do driving school instructor in this situation (usually this is the correct answer).

One last piece of advice: if you are taking a test for insurance company or employer, check if you can use reference materials (for example, a printout of traffic regulations). Some organizations allow this, but do not advertise it.

FAQ: answers to frequently asked questions about level 37

Is it possible to skip level 37 and move on to the next one?

No, Brian The test is built on the principle “if you don’t pass the previous one, the next one won’t open”. This is done to ensure that the user does not skip difficult steps that test critical skills (for example, reaction in emergency situations).

How many attempts are given to pass level 37?

The number of attempts depends on the purpose of testing:

• For personal use (training): unlimited.
• For driving school or insurance company: usually 3-5 attempts, after which re-learning may be required.
• For employment (for example, to a taxi company): often only 1-2 attempts.

Check with the test organizer for conditions.

Is it true that at level 37 there are questions to which there is no correct answer?

This is a myth, but with a caveat. In the test there is always a right answerbut sometimes he less obviousthan other options. For example, in a question about a road accident with victims, there may not be an ideal solution, but one of the options minimizes risks (for example, “call an ambulance and do not touch the victim”).

If you don't think there is a right answer, it's likely there's something you haven't taken into account (such as weather conditions or road type).

How are Level 37 questions different in 2026 from previous years?

In 2026, the following was added to the test:

• 🚗 ADAS block: questions about adaptive cruise control, car parking, blind spot monitoring systems.
• ⚡ Markings for electric vehicles: signs 6.22 (“Charging place”), 1.24.7 (“Lane for electric vehicles”).
• 🌧️ Situations with poor visibility: problems about driving in fog with fog lights or daytime running lights.

In addition, the number of questions with videos has increased (previously there were only static pictures).

Is it possible to challenge the result if you are sure that the answer is correct?

Technically yes, but it's difficult. To challenge you need:

1. Take a screenshot of the question and your answer.
2. Write to Brian Testa in support with justification (with reference to the traffic rules clause).
3. If the question concerns regional rules (for example, Moscow restrictions), attach supporting documents.

However, in practice less than 5% of appeals are successful, since the questions are drawn up taking into account federal traffic regulations.
