Which document may the police ask you to produce after you've been involved in a collision?
- A Your vehicle registration document
- B Your driving licence
- C Your theory test certificate
- D Your vehicle service record
Why this is the answer
You must stop if you've been involved in a collision that results in injury or damage. The police may ask to see your driving licence and insurance details at the time or later at a police station.
Why the other answers don't fit
- A
- Your vehicle registration document — The registration certificate is not among the documents you are asked to produce.
- C
- Your theory test certificate — Once you hold a full licence it proves nothing they need.
- D
- Your vehicle service record — A private record with no legal standing at all.
Where this comes from

Where this question comes from
The question, its options and the explanation are reproduced word for word from the DVSA revision question bank under licence. The licence requires them to appear unaltered, so we cannot reword them and neither can anyone else — that is why you will meet the same wording on other sites. Everything else on this page is written by Theory Hub: the explanation of why each wrong answer is wrong, the topic guide and the revision notes.
