In New Mexico, you’ll encounter a mix of highways, rural roads, and even some challenging mountain passes. As a beginner, your driving skills can only be improved with practice. Before you can get behind the wheel of your favorite vehicle, you must go through the licensing process and master the various aspects of driving theory described in the official MVD driver’s manual (New Mexico MVD Handbook (NM Driver's Manual) 2025). All 25 questions on the official written knowledge exam are based on this handbook, which every aspiring driver should read at least once. However, the most determined students prefer to look for alternatives to traditional study methods and strengthen their knowledge through practice tests.
Our New Mexico MVD permit practice tests closely reflect the content and format of the official written knowledge exam. With this intuitive tool, you can significantly increase your learning potential. Each practice test consists of 40 multiple-choice questions. To pass, you must score at least 72%, but it is perfectly normal to fail on your first few attempts. There’s no limit to how often you can train. You benefit from unlimited attempts and direct access from anywhere in the world. All you need is a device that supports a browser and has an active internet connection.
If you struggle to understand some of the complex aspects of driving theory, our AI coach can assist you whenever you need it. Request real-life examples and detailed explanations at any time. Stuck on a difficult question? Ask for a hint that nudges you in the right direction without revealing the correct answer. You will also receive personalized answers to your individual questions to ensure you fully understand each concept.
Our practice tests are easy to use even by those who are not skilled with computers. We have opted for a simple and straightforward interface and added several features to enhance your experience. For your convenience, we have omitted any timer so you can learn at your own pace without being rushed by a countdown.
