About this test
Practice for the New Mexico driver's permit (learner's) knowledge test with original questions written from the official New Mexico driver handbook (ver. 11.19.19). Every correct answer is backed by a passage of the handbook and checked by two independent verifiers.
- Study: every question with a short explanation.
- Topic drills: signs and markings, rules of the road, safe driving, alcohol and penalties, your license.
- Mock test: not offered, because the state does not publish the number of questions on its test.
The questions are written in our own words in English and Spanish; this is not the state's question bank. Signs are described in words (no images).
