Based on official Washington exam questions

Free WA DOL Diagnostic Test 2025

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

You’re sitting in the Pike Place Market, thinking it’s time to drive to Walla Walla to trade your Starbucks for a bottle of fine wine. That thought could be as fleeting as pumpkin spice latte if you don’t have a Washington driving license. Don’t take a chance on the wine going sour! If you are ready to get your driver’s license, a keen knowledge of road safety rules is essential.

Despite any basic knowledge of safe driving you may possess, you are going to need advanced-level preparation. Washington requires that you answer 80% of the 40 questions correctly on the knowledge test. While this score is achievable, it will require you to concentrate on the structure of the questions. Some of the questions on the official test may throw you curves that will make you feel like you’re trying to negotiate Chuckanut Drive. These questions may be worded in ways that make them confusing and complex. You will need to analyze the possible answers and choose carefully.

Our free Washington DOL Diagnostic Driving practice test is based on the most recent Washington driver guide (Washington DOL Handbook (WA Driver's Manual) 2025) and is up to date as November 2025. This practice test will prepare you to get past the most difficult questions on the official knowledge test. If you want to avoid having to retake the official knowledge test, the practice test is a much better option than a study guide. Instead of having you simply memorize the correct answer, the practice test teaches you the information that you need to know to pass the official knowledge test. There are 15 questions on the official knowledge test commonly missed by Washingtonians. The practice test includes questions just like those commonly missed. If you submit an incorrect answer, you are provided with a detailed explanation of the information that would make the answer correct. Not only will you become a better test taker but this information can be used every day to perfect your driving skills.
