About this test

Practice for the Virginia driver's permit (learner's) knowledge test with original questions written from the official Virginia driver handbook (current edition). 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: 40 questions, 34 correct to pass, as the state publishes it.

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).
