If you are not good at recognizing road signs and their meanings, a trip through the Badlands may not be a good experience. The South Dakota driver’s license written knowledge test measures your readiness to use these signs to obey traffic laws and be warned of specific road situations. Your failure to demonstrate this ability may deny you the opportunity to experience the freedom of the open road. If you need a little help in becoming a road signs expert, there is an excellent resource waiting to give you a lift.
Our free South Dakota DMV Road Signs practice test helps you develop exceptional recognition skills reinforced by the information needed to apply them. Serving as a safety and information device, road signs alert you to road rules and warn you of specific road situations. For instance, a No Parking sign lets you know that you cannot leave your vehicle in a designated area. A Roundabout sign warns you that you are approaching a circular intersection. Guide signs, such as a destination sign, provide you with the distance to a location, the highway number, or the location of available services.
While you may have previously used a study guide to prepare for a test, the Road Signs practice test is a superior resource designed for optimal learning. The practice test is based on the most recent South Dakota DMV driver’s manual (South Dakota DMV Handbook (SD Driver's Manual) 2025) and is up to date as of October 2025. The practice test includes 50 multiple-choice questions with pictures of road signs for you to identify and explain. If you get a question wrong, don’t despair! The practice test is designed to fill those knowledge gaps you have. Unlike a study guide that merely helps you memorize the answers to the questions, the practice test will provide additional information to better prepare you for your official test and become a better driver. If you submit an incorrect answer, you will receive a detailed explanation of the correct one. This method offers unrivaled attention to detail that boosts your confidence in facing difficult questions. It’s a game changer!
While it’s possible to find gold in the Black Hills, that discovery also applies to the practice tests for other U.S. states and Washington D.C. found at https://driving-tests.org/academy/drivers-license.
