Navigating the Windy City requires patience and awareness, two of the most important skills every driver should develop. In cities like Chicago, traffic congestion is common during rush hours. Beginners who lack behind-the-wheel experience might get overwhelmed in such situations, but you must remain calm and remember your training. The official Illinois DMV driver’s handbook (Illinois DMV Handbook (IL Driver's Manual) 2026) prepares you for the challenges of driving in busy urban environments.
To begin the graduated license program, you must pass a written knowledge test that contains 35 multiple-choice questions. This test is free; however, you’ll have to pay $20 for a learner’s permit, $15 for the road test, and license fees depending on age and license type. As you start with the learning phase, it is crucial to avoid rushing. Study at your own pace, and when you’re ready, evaluate your knowledge with our Illinois DMV permit practice tests.
