Free Arkansas DMV Permit Practice Test 2025

A vision screening and an on-site written permit knowledge test are the first steps toward obtaining your Arkansas DMV learner’s permit, and we can guide you through this process. The knowledge test consists of 25 multiple-choice questions covering traffic laws, road signs and markings, safe driving practices, driving under adverse conditions, and sharing the road, as outlined in the state’s Arkansas DMV 2025 Driver’s Manual. To pass, you must score at least 80% (20 correct responses). If you fail the knowledge test, you must wait until the next day and pay a retest fee. Our practice resources can help make sure that doesn’t happen.

Arkansas’s Graduated Driver’s License (GDL) program presents driving privileges incrementally to minors by way of an instruction permit, intermediate license, and full license. The instruction permit is granted to teens at least 14 years of age who pass the vision screening and written knowledge test. Permit holders must be accompanied by a licensed adult who is at least 21 years old and seated in the front passenger seat. After holding the permit for at least six months and turning 16, the driver can take the skills test to qualify for an intermediate license. In this phase, the driver is not permitted to drive between 11 PM and 4 AM without a supervised driver unless for a school, church, or work event. During the first six months, drivers are limited to one unrelated passenger and must not use mobile devices (including hands-free options). Full driving privileges are granted once the driver turns 18 and has maintained their intermediate license for at least one year with no violations.

Updated for January 2025, our free online Arkansas DMV Permit Practice Test mimics real exam conditions and provides instant feedback for incorrect responses, a proven technique to speed learning. Once you feel prepared, go to the DMV to submit an application for the learner’s permit. Bring your Social Security number, proof of legal presence (birth certificate), proof of identity, and proof of Arkansas residency. If you’re under 18, also bring proof of school enrollment and your parent or guardian to give their signed consent. A guardian whom you bring must provide proof of their relationship to you. Submit the documents, pass a vision screening, pay the fee, and take the official written test.
