Average pass rate for motorcycle tests in North Carolina: 73%.
Average pass rate for this test: 35%.
Hard
10 min

If you are going to get your NC motorcycle permit or license, you have to pass an exam that goes over a number of fines and limits. If you fail to pass this test, you won’t get your license or permit. That means you need to prepare before the big day. Don’t just waltz into the North Carolina DMV on test day and expect to pass it. Instead, take the Fines and Limits Motorcycle Practice Test so you’ll be prepared.

Test Your Knowledge

Many people go into the practice exam with the belief that they already know quite a bit of information. They think they know everything there is to know about fines and limits, only to be surprised by their practice test scores. Fortunately, the DMV doesn’t know how you perform on your practice exam, so you can get a bad score and then try again.

Make sure you use the hints as you go through the practice exam. They will provide you with some help you can use as you move from one question to the next. In addition, if you get a question wrong, the test will highlight the correct answer and provide an explanation. Read over the explanation carefully so you will be ready to answer that question on test day.
