Test design and learning experience oversight

Andrei Zakhareuski

Co-founder & CEO, Driving-Tests.org

Questions are created and maintained by the Driving-Tests.org content team following our multi-layer editorial process and updated whenever the Maryland MVA changes its handbook or website information. Official sources we check: 

All aspiring drivers in Maryland must take the official written knowledge exam. It consists of 25 multiple-choice questions, which you must answer within a time limit. A minimum score of 88% or higher is required to pass, leaving little room for error. All questions are based on the Maryland Driver’s Manual (Maryland MVA Handbook (MD Driver's Manual) 2026), an official resource published by the Department of Transportation (MVA).

Your knowledge of traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices will be evaluated at the MVA location. To ace this exam on your first attempt, you should dedicate several weeks to your learning phase. In this phase, the most determined students use practice tests to boost their learning potential. Master driving theory with the help of our Maryland Driver’s Handbook Practice Test, an intuitive tool designed to closely reflect the content and format of the official exam.

To reflect the latest updates brought by MVA rules or state law, we have recently updated this practice test for January 2026. All you need to gain access is a compatible device and a stable internet connection. Users who are unskilled with computers can easily control this practice test. We have provided a simple and straightforward interface to make this practice test accessible to everyone.

The voice-over function can be activated from the test settings menu. An artificial voice will read the questions and answer choices aloud, making it easier for you to maintain focus and retain information. Students with auditory memory benefit greatly from this feature, but you can also use it to reduce eye strain during an extended study session.

As you begin your learning phase, you should read the official driver’s manual multiple times. Spend a few days learning the basics, and use our Maryland Driver’s Handbook Practice Test in the following weeks. Reinforce your knowledge through repetition and build the knowledge needed to become a safe and responsible driver. Ace the official written knowledge test on your first attempt and take the next step in your licensing journey with confidence.
