When winter arrives in Michigan, snowstorms can drop up to 180 inches of snow in the Upper Peninsula. As a licensed driver, you must plan your route in advance and equip your car with winter tires and an emergency kit. Snowplows and salt trucks are on duty 24/7, keeping the roads clear and ensuring safe driving conditions. When you encounter one of these vehicles, you are required by law to maintain a safe distance of at least 200 feet.

Aspiring drivers must familiarize themselves with local laws and study the official Michigan driver’s manual (Michigan DMV Handbook (MI Driver's Manual) 2025) before they take the official written knowledge exam. You must answer all 50 questions and score at least 88% to pass. The most determined students use various resources to increase their learning potential. If you struggle with understanding some of the complex concepts of driving theory, you should adopt a different approach to your learning phase.

Our Michigan SOS permit practice tests can be a game changer when used regularly. Each practice test consists of 40 multiple-choice questions based on the official Michigan driver’s manual. This intuitive tool closely reflects the content and format of the official written knowledge exam, so you’ll know what to expect on exam day. Ignore your score on your first few attempts and pay attention to the detailed explanation provided with every question. You get unlimited attempts to train with our practice tests, so you can take advantage of this opportunity and train as often as your schedule allows.

About the Michigan learner permit

Start today and dedicate the following weeks to studying driving theory. Although our practice tests can help you pass the official written knowledge exam, this shouldn’t be your final goal. Becoming a safe and responsible driver on Michigan’s roads takes more than a score on a theory test. You must put in the effort to master this subject. When winter comes, you’ll confidently handle the challenges that will arise along the way and negotiate Michigan’s roads safely.

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