There are several answer options, but only one of them is correct. Each question also includes a hint and an explanation. It is recommended that you check each question’s explanation to gain some further insight into the rule being tested. Every time you answer a question, you’ll get immediate feedback with a detailed explanation, so you won’t need to wait until the end of the test to know the correct answers. Good luck and drive safely!

Actual DMV permit test: What to expect?

The Virginia permit test has 50 questions. You must get 40 correct (80%) to pass.
  • Where: Any Virginia DMV office (find locations)
  • Bring: ID + SSN + residency proof + permit/license fee (see checklist)
  • If you fail: If you’re under 18, you must wait 15 days before retaking the exam. If you’re 18 or older, you may only take the test once per day (each attempt requires the standard testing fee).
  • Commonly missed: road sign recognition (warning, regulatory, and guide signs), legal blood alcohol limits and DUI rules.

Is worth the time and money.
I had great success with this program. I passed my General Knowledge test missing only 4 questions; I had a perfect score on my Air Brakes, Tanker, Passenger, and School Bus tests. I also appreciate the renewal date reminders for the monthly subscription, and how easy it was to end the subscription after I was done.
S
Best study guide.
This was the helpful tool I used to get my hazmat and tanker endorsement they way it’s set you can’t fell test. Passed dmv test first try only missing 2 questions for hazmat and 0 for tanker.
NH
Great test prep program.
I wish I had seen it sooner and could be used for other professional certificates.
JG
Awesome product.
I read the manual and that was a good start. After that driving-test.org was crucial to my success. I complete at practice tests and marathon. Passed the CDL tests quickly. 2 of the 3 were 100%. Great product
JC
I would absolutely recommend this to anybody else trying to get a CLP.
I was searching for any tools that could help me obtain my CLP and to my surprise there were very few besides this site and the official CDL manual. I took the dive and invested in the membership and started studying up. When I actually took the test I could not believe how close all the questions were to the website. 90% of them were word for word and I thought impossible! Needless to say I passed my CDL B test with air brake first try.
KV
Great practice test.
I did all marathons before going in to take my tests I passed them all on the first try all in one day! This definitely made my testing experience a breeze. Would definitely recommend to anyone trying to get a cdl.
