Did you know that Maryland has one of the longest bridges in the United States? Spanning over 4.3 miles across the bay, the Chesapeake Bridge provides an essential route that often gets busy during the summer months. Although this bridge has no High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes, you’ll find plenty of them across the state. Approximately 10% of commuters in Maryland share rides to work, which is a trend highly encouraged by the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA), the government agency responsible for issuing driver’s licenses in this state.

As soon as they turn 15 years and 9 months old, teens can begin the process of obtaining a driver’s license. Before applying, they’ll need to pass a written test and a vision screening. The written test evaluates your knowledge of various aspects of driving, including traffic laws and road signs. We’ll help you with the road signs so you can show up prepared for the MVA knowledge test in Maryland.

The official MVA driver’s handbook (Maryland MVA Handbook (MD Driver's Manual) 2025) explains a few dozen road signs, their purposes and the actions drivers need to take after spotting them. Take your time and memorize each sign. The learning phase shouldn’t be rushed, so we recommend maintaining patience and consistency.
