There is nothing like a Louisiana Saturday night. From the bayou to the French Quarter, there is always a good time to be had devouring delicious seafood, listening to smooth jazz or zydeco music, and enjoying the company of some of the most hospitable people you’ll ever find. However, if your transportation is limited to a pirogue, you’ll be missing all of the fun, cher. You need to ditch that boat and get yourself a Louisiana driver’s license. While you won’t need to dig up Marie Laveau to cast a voodoo spell, you’ll need to find a way to answer 80% of the 40 questions correctly on the Louisiana driver’s license general knowledge test. Don’t worry! There is a valuable resource available to you to add a little lagniappe to your preparation.

This free Louisiana OMV Diagnostic practice test is your pathway to expert analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of your driving skills. The practice test uses 8 of the most commonly missed questions (like the ones you’ll see on the Louisiana driver’s license knowledge test) to measure your readiness. While many are quite obvious, some test questions are often complex and confusing, leading you to misinterpret them and submit a wrong answer. Using the practice test, you can reduce or eliminate this confusion and increase your chance of passing the official test on the first try.

About the Louisiana learner permit

Based on the most recent Louisiana Driver’s Handbook (Louisiana DMV Handbook (LA Driver's Manual) 2025) and up to date as of December 2025, the practice test is the premier resource for getting you ready to take your official knowledge test. It is superior to any study guide because it provides you with feedback on any incorrect answer you submit. Instead of having you memorize the answers to the questions, the practice test will explain the information you need to get them right. The advantage of this approach is that you more effectively commit the information to memory and boost your performance on the official test.

“Laissez les bon temps rouler” isn’t something that should be limited to Louisiana. You can find information on practice tests for the U.S. states and Washington D.C. at https://driving-tests.org/academy/drivers-license.

We know what it takes to pass. And we’ve got the proof.
