DC DMV Written Test Simulator – Study Online 2025

The District of Columbia has a good public transportation system, including Metrobus and Metrorail. However, if you need to go somewhere that the Metro doesn’t go, or you would just prefer to drive yourself, you’re going to need a driver license.

To get a driver license, you must meet a series of requirements. One major requirement is to pass the official knowledge test for an instruction permit. This credential will allow you to practice supervised driving so you can pass the road skills test for a driver license. Perhaps you’re thinking, “I’ll just read the official driver’s manual (District of Columbia DMV Handbook (DC Driver's Manual) 2025) a couple of times before the knowledge test, and I’ll pass it easily.” Think again! In DC, about 47.3% – nearly half – of those who took the knowledge test in recent years failed it on their first attempt. No doubt many of them just read the manual, but it wasn’t adequate preparation.

We have a suite of interactive tools to help you pass the knowledge test by enabling you to absorb and memorize all the important information. It includes an audiobook version of the official driver’s manual that you can listen to anywhere. It also includes a series of practice tests based on the official manual, presented to you in increasing order of difficulty. Each of these practice tests comes with our automated assistant to help you answer the questions by supplying you with hints and explanations.

If you’ve been studying with all these tools, you may be ready to take the official knowledge test. But let’s make sure you are before you go to the DMV for the test!

This Exam Simulator test closely resembles official exam conditions. The test consists of 30 questions based on the official manual, just like those on the official District of Columbia DMV permit test. The passing score is 75%, just like the official permit test.
