Questions Learners Have About Blind Hills & Summits

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Blind Hills & Summits, including how questions match the official theory exam in Iceland, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is a 'Blindhæð' in Icelandic traffic?

A 'Blindhæð' (blind hill or blind crest) is a section of road where the crest of a hill significantly restricts your view of oncoming traffic or hazards beyond it, requiring extra caution.

Why is it important to slow down before a blind hill?

Slowing down before a blind hill gives you more time to react to unexpected obstacles or oncoming vehicles that may appear suddenly from the other side, preventing collisions.

Is overtaking allowed on a blind hill in Iceland?

No, overtaking is strictly forbidden when approaching or on a blind hill or summit due to the extremely limited visibility, which makes such a manoeuvre highly dangerous.

What should I do if the road has no center line on a blind hill?

If there is no center line, or if the road is narrow and gravel, it is especially important to keep as far to the right as safely possible to create maximum space for any oncoming traffic.

How does driving on gravel roads affect safety on blind hills?

Gravel roads often have narrower lanes and reduced grip, which increases the danger on blind hills. You must reduce speed significantly and keep even further to the right than on paved roads.
