View All PlansIn Hawaii, there are three tests that all new drivers must pass before they can become eligible for a driver’s license: a vision test, a knowledge test on driving theory, and a road test. However, you must first obtain an instruction permit before you can obtain a driver’s license if you’re under 18 or your county (e.g., Honolulu) requires it. You must be at least age 15½ to get a permit. It will allow you to practice driving under supervision. You must pass the vision and knowledge tests for an instruction permit. (If you hold a permit, you pass the road test for a license.) If you’re under 18, you must also get consent from your parents or other responsible adult. However, the details of this requirement depend on your county; contact them for more information.
The official knowledge test has 30 multiple-choice questions based on the official driver’s manual (Hawaii DMV Handbook (HI Driver's Manual) 2025). The passing score is 80%. The test covers traffic signs and signals, Hawaii traffic laws, the rules of the road, and safe driving practices.
This is our fourth Hawaii Permit Practice Test. We designed it to help aspiring drivers like you pass the DMV knowledge test. This practice test is also multiple choice and based on the official Hawaii driver’s manual. It covers freeway driving, handling emergencies, pedestrians, right-of-way rules, passing, pavement markings, road signs, and safety equipment, among other topics.
Feel free to call on our AI Assistant for help with any practice question. You can ask it for a hint or a clarification. You can also ask it your own questions about driving. If you still miss the question, the AI assistant will give you the correct answer and an explanation of it.
We can’t give you a PDF list of the exact test questions and answers you’ll encounter on your knowledge test. To create a knowledge test, the DMV draws questions randomly from a vast database of candidate questions, so we can’t predict the exact questions you’ll face. However, our practice test questions have proven to be close to the official knowledge test questions that have appeared in the past. Plus, we have two PDF “cheat sheets” (i.e., quick references, not for actual cheating!) that you can download: “The Top 100 Most Common US DMV Questions” and “The 121 Most Common US Road Signs Questions.” You will likely encounter at least some of these questions on your knowledge test. The correct answer is provided for each question listed.
