Free Tennessee DMV Written Test Study Guide 2025

  • Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
  • Based on official Tennessee Driver's manual
  • Triple-checked for accuracy
  • Updated for June 2025

Before venturing onto Tennessee’s roads, aspiring drivers must pass a 30-question written knowledge exam and meet several other requirements. This exam covers traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices. All questions have multiple answer choices, but only one is correct. You must score 80% or higher to pass, so it is crucial to prepare in advance and use practice tests to evaluate your knowledge.

It is crucial to avoid rushing during your learning phase. As you develop a lifelong skill, the progress should be gradual. Do not expect overnight results; dedicate several weeks to studying driving theory. The official Tennessee Comprehensive Driver License Manual (Tennessee DMV Handbook (TN Driver's Manual) 2025) describes this subject in detail. Please read its contents at least once, and when you’re ready, give our practice test a try.

Our Tennessee DMV Written Test Study Guide practice test has been designed to closely reflect the content and format of the official exam. All 20 questions can be answered at your own pace, as there is no timer to pressure you. This intuitive tool includes several features, such as an automated assistant and detailed explanations. The AI coach will be present during your training sessions, ready to provide personalized help at your request. It can also provide hints that nudge you in the right direction without revealing the correct answer.

The questions you answer incorrectly will be automatically forwarded to your personal Challenge Bank™. This section includes detailed explanations that will help you learn from your mistakes. Please keep in mind that questions in the Challenge Bank will remain there until you answer them correctly. We recommend checking this section every day to reinforce your knowledge and identify areas that need improvement.

By using our Tennessee DMV Written Test Study Guide practice test alongside the official comprehensive driver license manual, you can build the confidence and knowledge necessary to safely navigate Tennessee’s roads. On exam day, you’ll go to the DMV location prepared and ready to ace the official written test.
