How delightful it is to live in the Land of Enchantment. You can get an eyeful of its stunning natural beauty as you float across the sky in a hot air balloon at the Balloon Fiesta. Unfortunately, without a New Mexico driver’s license, you will need plenty of hot air to experience its outdoor fun and rich cultural heritage. If you don’t want to get stuck up in the air, you’ll need to spend a little time learning the rules of the road.
The New Mexico driver’s knowledge test includes questions about road signs, traffic laws, and driver safety that you will need to know. You must answer 70% of the 25 questions correctly to receive a passing score. While this requirement is slightly lower than required in most states, you shouldn’t think the knowledge test is easier here. Standardized tests are known to include complex and confusing questions. The knowledge test is no exception. You’ll need to prepare yourself for questions that will make you second-guess yourself by the way they are written and the answer choices provided. Without the right kind of preparation, your chances of passing will be quickly deflated.

Our free New Mexico MVD Diagnostic Driving practice test is based on the most recent New Mexico driver’s manual (New Mexico MVD Handbook (NM Driver's Manual) 2026) and up to date as of January 2026. The practice test includes 8 questions like the ones on the New Mexico official knowledge test that leave most New Mexicans stumped. If you miss a question on the practice test, you don’t need to sweat it. The practice test is interactive and provides immediate feedback with a detailed explanation of the correct answer. This approach helps you learn the information and be able to explain it in detail. You won’t be wasting your time guessing any answers on the official test, and you’ll increase your chances of passing on the first try. A study guide will only tell you if your answer is wrong without telling you why. The practice test is your key to driving success.
