RI DMV Written Test Simulator – Study Online 2025

To get a driver’s license, you must meet a whole bunch of requirements. One crucial requirement is to pass the official Rhode Island 40-question computerized test for an instruction permit. Your instruction permit will allow you to practice supervised driving. However, passing the permit test isn’t as easy as you might think. Too many aspiring drivers who just read the official driver’s manual (Rhode Island DMV Handbook (RI Driver's Manual) 2025) shortly before the computerized test end up failing it.

To help you pass on your first try, we have a suite of interactive tools you can use to ensure you absorb and memorize all the relevant information. It includes an audiobook version of the official driver’s manual that you can listen to anywhere. It also includes a series of practice tests drawn from a huge bank of questions based on the official manual. Each test is accompanied by our automated assistant, which can supply hints and explanations of the correct answers to speed up the learning process. We hope you followed our program and learned a lot about safe driving.

Do you think you’re ready to take the official computerized test now? Let’s make sure you are before you go to the DMV for the test! This Exam Simulator test operates in Simulated Exam Mode to closely resemble official permit test conditions. The test consists of 40 questions based on the official manual, just like those on the official DMV permit test. The passing score is 80%, just like the official permit test. There are no hints, no explanations, and no automated assistant to help you answer the test questions. On this test, you’re on your own!

Do you tend to experience test anxiety when taking official tests? This Exam Simulator test is so realistic that you may even experience a little anxiety when taking it. That’s OK! By giving you a sample exam experience now, your fear of the unknown will be reduced, and your anxiety level may actually drop.

When you see all the effort it will take you to finally obtain a driver’s license, you may wonder if it’s all worth it. Consider the possibilities: With an Rhode Island driver’s license, you can commute to work in Providence, the Quonset Business Park, or even Boston. You can take I-95 to go shopping at the Providence Place Mall. Or go for a leisurely scenic drive on the Ocean Drive in Newport. You can drive anywhere at any time. But if you don’t have a driver’s license, you’ll have to take public transportation or a ride-hailing service.

Good luck!
