Before you can cruise on the scenic Great River Road behind the wheel of your favorite vehicle, you must obtain a driver’s license. The Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) is responsible for licensing drivers across the state. As you begin your learning phase, you should spend a few days learning the basic aspects of driving theory from the official Missouri Driver Guide (Missouri DOR Handbook (MO Driver's Manual) 2025). This resource describes traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices for aspiring drivers unfamiliar with this subject. We recommend reading its contents multiple times. But if reading printed text doesn’t work for you, we offer a helpful alternative.

Our Missouri DOR Written Test Study Guide practice test is an interactive tool designed to boost your learning potential. It consists of 20 questions based on the official driver guide. There are multiple answer choices, but only one is correct. Since we have omitted any timer from this practice test, there’s no need to rush. Read every question twice and only select an answer when you’re confident in your choice.
