- Based on official Virginia Driver's manual
VA DMV Written Test Simulator – Study Online 2025
With a driver’s license, you’ll be able to drive yourself to work in Richmond, Hampton Roads, or Northern Virginia (NOVA) via Interstate 64, 95, or 495 (the Capital Beltway). You can also take in the views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from the Blue Ridge Parkway or savor the vistas from the scenic overlooks on Skyline Drive. Or drive anywhere else you desire.
But what if you fail the knowledge exam for a learner’s permit? Then, compared with the freedom of a driver’s license, you’ll be effectively grounded. You won’t even be able to practice driving under supervision. You’ll have to depend on others to drive you around when they can.
You may be thinking, “The knowledge exam is easy. I’ll just read the official driver’s manual (Virginia DMV Handbook (VA Driver's Manual) 2025) a couple of times before the exam.” A lot of other aspiring drivers thought so too. But in 2020 – 2023, 48.2% – nearly half – of aspiring drivers failed the knowledge test.
To be sure of passing the knowledge test, you need to do more than just read the manual. That’s why we’ve provided you with various interactive test preparation materials to help you learn and memorize all the information you need to pass the knowledge test.
These tools include our audiobook version of the official manual, a series of practice tests with questions based on the official manual, and an automated assistant with hints and explanations to help you answer the questions on these practice tests and speed up your learning process. We hope you’ve been using these tools to study hard and learn and memorize as much as you can. We guarantee that our tools will enable you to pass the knowledge test on your first attempt – or your money back.
Now it’s time to see if you’re truly ready to ace that knowledge test!
This Exam Simulator test operates in Simulated Exam Mode to closely resemble official exam conditions. The test consists of 35 questions based on the official Virginia manual, just like those on the official DMV permit test. The passing score is 86%, just like the official permit test. There are no hints, no explanations, and no automated assistant to help you answer the test questions. You’re truly on your own!
Taking this test will also help you build confidence that you can handle a test like this. This will help reduce any test anxiety you may have about taking the official knowledge exam.
Good luck!
- Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test

Content Creation and Verification Process
- Alignment with Official Manuals:
Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each state's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each state DMV's website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information. - Community Feedback Integration:
We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation. - Expert Content Creation:
Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy. - Rigorous Review Process:
Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors. - User Feedback Mechanism:
After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly. - Responsive Updates:
In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the DMV manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the DMV publishes them.
Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your DMV exam.
