When you drive in New York, you must be ready for anything. Whether navigating busy Manhattan traffic, performing parking maneuvers in Brooklyn, or cruising along the quiet roads upstate, it is crucial to always prioritize safety. Before you can get your learner permit, you need to study the various aspects of driving theory described in the official New York Driver’s Manual (New York DMV Handbook (NY Driver's Manual) 2026). The official written knowledge test consists of 20 multiple-choice questions based on this manual. You must score 70% or higher to pass, leaving little room for error. To ace this exam on your first attempt, you should dedicate a few weeks to studying driving theory with the help of practice tests and other efficient tools.
Our New York DMV Written Test Study Guide practice test can significantly boost your learning potential. This 20-question practice test is untimed, so you won’t have to rush to the end. Complete each session at your own pace without the pressure of a countdown. Beginners unfamiliar with driving theory are more likely to make mistakes during their first few attempts. That is why we provide detailed explanations for each question, helping you understand the reasoning behind each correct answer. We also recommend noting this feedback down in a notebook or notebook app for future reference.
