Free New Mexico Driver’s Handbook Practice Test (2025)

  • Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and senior refresher test

Driving in New Mexico’s heat can be challenging for new drivers. The strong sun and hot roads affect both your car and your focus. You should check your tires regularly, as heat can cause them to wear out faster or even blow out. As a licensed driver, you must always prioritize safety. The official New Mexico Driver’s Handbook (New Mexico MVD Handbook (NM Driver's Manual) 2025) describes the various aspects of driving theory in detail. You should read its contents multiple times to learn about safe driving practices, traffic laws, and road signs.

Our New Mexico Driver’s Handbook Practice Test consists of 20 multiple-choice questions based on this manual. You can use both resources simultaneously to boost your learning potential. With unlimited attempts and nonstop access, there’s no limit to how often you can train with this intuitive tool. To maximize your chances of passing the official written knowledge test on your first attempt, we recommend developing a daily study routine and following it consistently.

To reflect the latest updates brought by MVD rules or state law, we have recently updated this practice test for October 2025. You will always practice with the latest version, as accuracy is essential in driving theory. During an active training session, you can use several features to customize your testing experience. A slider lets you modify the font size. Make the text bigger until it becomes easier to read to prevent digital eye strain and its uncomfortable symptoms. This slider can be found in the test settings menu by clicking the three dots in the top-right corner of the page.

A detailed explanation of the correct answer is provided for each question. Please read it twice and note this feedback in a notebook or notebook app. Revisit the material during future practice sessions to learn from your mistakes and identify areas that need improvement.

Our practice tests can make the difference between a failed attempt and passing the official written knowledge test on your first try. However, becoming a safe and responsible driver in the Land of Enchantment takes time and effort. Before you can explore this beautiful state from behind the wheel, you must study and master driving theory.

We know how Driver's Ed goes

The material is dry. Studying it is tedious. And you don't want to step foot inside the DMV. So you dread it, avoid it, pretend it doesn't exist. Or you go to the DMV and shoot your shot. You walk in. Take a number. Then the number takes your soul.

Noses sneeze. Babies cry. Frustration groans. And when it's finally time to take your test, you're sweating. Thirty minutes later, you're crying. Because despite your best efforts. You failed. Next thing you know, you're chasing a Waymo in circles to get home (embarrassing!).
That ends here.
At Driving Tests, we know emotions can get in the way of doing what you need to do. So we deliver Driver's Ed that makes it easy to start, and even easier to finish. We get you DMV Smart ASAP. Testing you with real, up-to-date questions. Backing up tricky driving situations with easy-to-grasp visuals & engaging practice tests that reaffirm what you know, and test you again on what you don't. So by the time test day comes - you *own* the DMV. Your only worry? Convincing the proctor you didn't cheat ;)
