You probably have various plastic cards in your wallet. Some are credit cards. Others indicate memberships in organizations. But there’s one more you should have. It will let you legally drive a car to commute to work, a pickup truck or small van as part of your job or business, and an RV on your next vacation. It’s even widely honored as a legal means of identification. It’s a (noncommercial) driver license.
This is our fourth South Dakota Permit Practice Test. We carefully designed it to help you pass the official South Dakota DMV knowledge test on your first try. The knowledge test is one of the three official tests you must pass before you can become eligible for a driver license. All questions on the knowledge test are based on the official South Dakota driver’s manual (South Dakota DMV Handbook (SD Driver's Manual) 2025).
Like the official knowledge test and our first three permit practice tests, this practice test is multiple choice, its passing score is 80%, and it’s based on the official driver’s manual. Each question comes with four answer options. You must choose the best or most complete answer. If you need help, call on our AI Assistant. It can supply hints and explanations and answer your own questions about driving theory. The Progress Bar will mark a question in green when you’ve answered it correctly and red if you’ve gotten it wrong. If you’re disappointed by your final score, you can retake this practice test as often as you wish until your final score is excellent. Each time, the questions will be randomized.
One thing we can’t give you is a list of the specific questions (let alone with the correct answers) you’ll encounter on your official knowledge test. To assemble a knowledge test, the DMV selects questions randomly from a massive database of available test questions – and only they know which ones they’ve picked out for you. Still, we can give you a good idea of what to expect on the official test. In our experience, our practice test questions have proven similar to the official test questions. In addition, we’ve created two downloadable PDF “cheat sheets” (quick references you can consult at any time): “The Top 100 Most Common US DMV Questions” and “The 121 Most Common US Road Signs Questions.” It’s a safe bet that some of these questions will appear on your knowledge test. Each question listed comes with the correct answer. Try to memorize as many of these as you can.
