Virginia DMV Signs & Road Situations Practice Test 2025

  • Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and senior refresher test.

Most traffic accidents in Virginia are classified as caused by “driver error.” That means the driver failed to obey a traffic law or pay attention to a road situation, resulting in calamity. This reality illustrates why you should spend some time studying road signs as you prepare for your Virginia written driver’s knowledge test. The failure to recognize and react to road signs puts your safety and that of other drivers at risk. Taking the time to learn road signs represents a step forward in your driver’s education for saving lives.

Our free Virginia DMV Road Signs practice test gives you valuable exercise in identifying road signs and how to react to them. Besides promoting road safety, your ability to perform this task affects the smooth flow of traffic. Road signs serve a variety of purposes. Some signs are regulatory (e.g., one-way), which inform you of traffic laws you must obey. Meanwhile, warning signs (e.g., pedestrian crossing) alert you to changing road situations. Note that the shapes and colors of these signs can help you recognize and react to them. This is especially true in poor weather conditions that make it difficult to read the sign until you are closer to it.

While you may have some experience in using study guides to prepare for tests, the Road Signs practice test is much more effective and time efficient. The practice test is based on the most recent Virginia DMV driver’s manual and is up to date as of October 2025. You will be provided with 50 multiple-choice visual questions about traffic signs. If you submit a wrong answer, you will be given a clear and detailed explanation of the correct one. It will help you be better prepared for your official test. In addition, you will become a safer driver by knowing how to apply the information to road situations. Study guides will only give you the correct answer without any further instruction. Don’t risk your safety! The practice test will have you on your way to avoid becoming another “driver error” statistic.
