DMV permit practice tests for all 50 states

Every US state requires a written knowledge exam before you get your learner's permit. California's DMV permit test asks 46 questions and allows 8 mistakes; Texas asks 30 through DPS; Florida's permit exam runs 50 questions; New York's is 20. All of them test the same core: right-of-way, speed laws, road signs from the MUTCD, DUI limits and safe-driving judgement from your state's driver handbook.

Free DMV practice tests are the proven way to pass first try. The 350+ questions here are written from state handbooks — stop signs and school buses, 4-way stops, no-zones around trucks, zero-tolerance rules for drivers under 21 — with a plain-English explanation on every answer, plus state packs for California, Texas, Florida and New York.
