- Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
- Based on official Rhode Island Driver's manual
- Triple-checked for accuracy
- Updated for October 2025
In Rhode Island, all drivers, regardless of age, must obtain an instructional permit before applying for a driver’s license. The requirements to obtain an instructional permit include being at least 16 years old and passing a vision test and a computerized Rhode Island DMV written knowledge test on driving theory. If you’re under 18, you have a few other requirements to meet first: You must begin a 33-hour classroom driver’s education course (no driving yet) at age 15 years and 10 months or older. You must complete the course before applying for the instructional permit. Also, your parent, guardian, or adult spouse must accompany you to the DMV to co-sign your application for a permit there.
All questions on the knowledge test are based on the official Rhode Island driver’s manual (Rhode Island DMV Handbook (RI Driver's Manual) 2025).
You should study the manual, but this alone may not ensure you pass the knowledge test. Could you use some help to pass it? Then you’ve certainly come to the right place! Our knowledge test preparation program is just what you need to pass the knowledge test on your first try. We guarantee it – or your money back!
Here is the second of our five Rhode Island DMV Permit Practice Tests. We designed it to help aspiring drivers like you pass the DMV knowledge test. Like the official test, this practice test is multiple choice, based on the official Rhode Island driver’s manual, and up to date as of October 2025.
You can start this practice test right now. Please read the first test question and its answer choices. Select the best or most complete answer. If you’re unsure of the correct answer, ask our AI Assistant to give you a hint or clarify the question. You can also ask your own questions about driving. The Progress Bar will keep track of your score. If you answer the question correctly, it will turn green in the Progress Bar. If you miss the practice question, it will turn red, and the AI Assistant will give you the correct answer and an explanation. You can retake this practice test as often as you wish until you’ve thoroughly mastered the material.
