One of the longest toll highways in the country, the New York State Thruway (Interstate-87/Interstate-90) runs for 496 miles from New York City to the Pennsylvania border. When traffic does not pose a problem, it makes for a memorable road trip. However, you’ll find that driving in the state of New York varies greatly depending on whether you’re in the bustling metropolitan area of New York City or the more rural regions upstate.
In the Big Apple, a taxi driver might accumulate up to 2 million miles over their career. The most experienced veterans of the famous yellow cabs could take you from JFK Airport to Newark Liberty on a foggy morning without even consulting a map. As a beginner driver, navigating the busy roads of the 11th largest city in the world can be quite challenging. Before driving a vehicle becomes something natural for you, we recommend practicing with caution.
The massive screens in Times Square might attract your attention, but when you’re behind the wheel, your eyes must focus on the road signs and pavement markings. There are plenty of them, and chances are that you’ll see a dozen only ten minutes after leaving a parking space. All drivers must memorize the meaning of these road signs, which are thoroughly explained in the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) driver’s manual (New York DMV Handbook (NY Driver's Manual) 2025).
Almost 30% of the written exam necessary for obtaining a driver’s license focuses on these road signs. Take your time to study them, and when you’re ready, give our New York DMV Road Sign practice tests a try. Consisting of 25 questions exclusively on road signs, these practice tests offer you the opportunity to assess your knowledge before taking the official exam.
Each question has multiple answer options, but only one of them is correct. A high-resolution image of a road sign is displayed, asking you to identify its meaning. Do not overthink your choice — if you submit a wrong answer, our automated assistant will help you learn from it. Immediate feedback is provided along with a detailed explanation of the correct answer, allowing you to learn from your mistakes.
