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.
