Free HI DMV Diagnostic Test 2025

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

Surf’s up! Hawaii residents, you may be ready to “hang ten,” but ten won’t be enough for you to pass your driver’s license knowledge test. You need to answer 80% of the 30 questions correctly to receive a passing score. Hawaii prioritizes keeping its roads, and most importantly its drivers, safe from hazardous conditions. Driving decisions made in mere seconds can be the difference between safe travel and misfortune. This reality is the reason you should make sure that you are skillful in making those split-second decisions. Do you know the strengths and weaknesses of your driving skills?

Our free Hawaii DMV Diagnostic practice test gives you a strategic advantage in preparing to take your Hawaii driver’s license knowledge test. Using this practice test, you will be able to identify any areas of improvement that need to be made in your driving skills. The practice test focuses on the fifteen questions that are most often answered incorrectly on the official test. It makes no difference if you’re a teen taking your first test or a senior needing to take a refresher test. The practice test is a real game changer that can help you smoothly ride the wave to success.

While you may think using a study guide would also prepare you, there is a major difference between a study guide and the practice test. Study guides, generally, help you with memorization. The practice test is based on the Hawaii Driver’s Manual (Hawaii DMV Handbook (HI Driver's Manual) 2025) and is up to date as of October 2025. You are provided with an interactive tool that provides you feedback on any questions you answer incorrectly. This approach points out to you the elements of the question that you may not have understood in providing your answer. You are able to use the explanations to actively learn the components of the correct answer and thoroughly explain them. You will be equipped with top-notch preparation to keep ‘shakas up’ and perform well enough on the official test to pass on the first attempt.

Hawaii residents, say Aloha to outdated test preparation materials and become the Big Kahuna of safe driving. You can also get information on practice tests outside of the Islands at https://driving-tests.org/academy/drivers-license.
