You have heard the horror stories. People have gone into the DMV to take the motorcycle test, only to fail it. They didn’t fail because of a lack of brain power. The reason they failed is very simple. They didn’t study enough.

Of course, you can spend your nights studying and still not pass because you did not do it the correct way. Don’t just put your nose in a book. You need to take practice tests.

What Is the Practice Test?

This practice test was designed to look just like the real test. The questions are lifted from the official District of Columbia Motorcycle Handbook and look similar to the questions you will get when you take the official test at the DMV.

Since this is still a practice test, we encourage you to use hints as you go through the questions to get some help. Use the help at first, but as you get near to your test day, stop using the hints. Answer the questions on your own to make sure you know the answers.

If you choose an incorrect answer, the test will show you the correct answer. Write it down and study that topic more. It could come up on the official DC exam, and you want to make sure you get it right when you’re at the DMV.
