Where would you like to drive once you obtain an unrestricted Arkansas Class D driver’s license? To Crater of Diamonds State Park to dig for diamonds? Or maybe you’d enjoy a scenic drive on Scenic Highway 7 through the Ouachita Mountains and the Ozark National Forest. Or explore the vibrant nightlife of Little Rock, Fayetteville, or Hot Springs. Or commute to work by car, perhaps in finance or government (Little Rock), retail or logistics (northwest Arkansas), or agriculture or manufacturing (Pine Bluff). We can help you start down the road (pun intended) to a driver’s license. In Arkansas, all new drivers, regardless of age, must obtain an instruction permit to practice supervised driving before they may take the skills (road) test for a driver’s license. To obtain an instruction permit, you must meet a set of requirements. These include being at least 14 years old, passing a vision test, and passing an official written knowledge test on driving theory.

The Arkansas DMV written test has 25 multiple-choice questions based on the official driver’s manual (Arkansas DMV Handbook (AR Driver's Manual) 2025). The passing score is 80%.
