DC DMV Signs & Road Situations Practice Test 2025

  • Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and senior refresher test.

Road signs command your immediate attention because they preserve public safety and maintain traffic flow. Your District of Columbia driver’s knowledge test will include several questions about various road signs to make sure you can identify them and react appropriately. Inability to perform these tasks places you at risk of committing traffic violations or being involved in an accident. Don’t take your responsibility of understanding road signs lightly!

While there is no shortage of on-line resources to teach you about road signs, you will need to carefully select one that is most capable of training you. Our free District of Columbia DMV Road Signs practice test employs a study method that is tried and true. Want to say goodbye to waiting on the Metro? Learning the different types of road signs will get you on your way. Regulatory signs, such as Yield, alert you to traffic laws that must be obeyed. Warning signs, such as Intersection Merge, advise you of upcoming changes in a road situation. A guide sign, such as a distance marker, informs you of directions, distances, and the location of available services.

Using the Road Signs practice test, you will learn reliable information that you can use to pass your official knowledge test and make you a skillful driver. The practice test is based on the most recent District of Columbia DMV driver’s manual (District of Columbia DMV Handbook (DC Driver's Manual) 2025) and is up to date as of October 2025. Unlike a study guide that teaches you by memorizing the answers, the practice test brings your learning potential further along. The practice test assesses your current knowledge level with 50 multiple-choice questions. Each question contains a picture of a road sign and four possible answers. Any wrong answer will result in you receiving a detailed explanation of the information that would make it correct. You won’t need to rely on any guesswork during your official knowledge test. The practice test provides the information needed for you to confidently answer any question. This approach provides the most thorough preparation for your knowledge test and driving experiences.

We know how Driver's Ed goes

The material is dry. Studying it is tedious. And you don't want to step foot inside the DMV. So you dread it, avoid it, pretend it doesn't exist. Or you go to the DMV and shoot your shot. You walk in. Take a number. Then the number takes your soul.

Noses sneeze. Babies cry. Frustration groans. And when it's finally time to take your test, you're sweating. Thirty minutes later, you're crying. Because despite your best efforts. You failed. Next thing you know, you're chasing a Waymo in circles to get home (embarrassing!).
That ends here.
At Driving Tests, we know emotions can get in the way of doing what you need to do. So we deliver Driver's Ed that makes it easy to start, and even easier to finish. We get you DMV Smart ASAP. Testing you with real, up-to-date questions. Backing up tricky driving situations with easy-to-grasp visuals & engaging practice tests that reaffirm what you know, and test you again on what you don't. So by the time test day comes - you *own* the DMV. Your only worry? Convincing the proctor you didn't cheat ;)
