New questions will be added to the driving test from the start of July.
Revised and updated questions will also become part of the test and learner drivers will be required to carry out pre-drive checks.
The new questions will cover items such as wipers, demisters, foglights and head restraints.
Also included will be questions about anti-lock brakes and the correct use of the car's controls and switches.
Chief driving examiner Trevor Wedge said: "We committed to reviewing the questions in the 'Show Me Tell Me' section of the practical test and we have now finished that review.
"The extra questions reflect the need to show a basic knowledge about the various safety checks a driver should make before driving a vehicle."
