West Virginia’s country roads may take you home, but you can’t drive on them without a driver’s license. Much like working in a coal mine, you need to know what you’re doing behind the wheel for your safety and that of your fellow drivers. If not, you’re heading for a peck of trouble. The good news is there is a way to sop up all the smarts you need to become an expert driver, and it’s only going to cost you a little of your time.
While you may be loaded up on common sense, the West Virginia driver’s license knowledge test has some questions that will rattle your brain. While they won’t leave you with a concussion, these questions are the most frustrating kind imaginable. There are 8 questions on the knowledge test that are commonly missed by test takers. West Virginia requires you to answer 76% of the 25 questions correctly to be issued an instruction permit. You won’t have much room for error. You’ll need to invest a little study time and use a proven resource to get you over the hump and hitting the highway.
Our free West Virginia DMV Diagnostic Driving practice test is based on the most recent West Virginia driver’s handbook (West Virginia DMV Handbook (WV Driver's Manual) 2025) and up to date as of December 2025. Study guides are a waste of your time. In comparison, the practice test is a much more efficient use of test preparation. The practice test includes questions just like the ones on the official test and is expertly designed to give you immediate feedback on any wrong answer you submit. You are given a detailed explanation of the correct answer, which is better than simply being provided the correct answer. The official test may get sneaky and change the wording that differs from your study guide. With the practice test, you can be better prepared for such curves and apply the instruction received from your acquired knowledge.
