Hawaii DMV Permit Practice Test Four 2025

Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
Based on official Hawaii Driver's manual
Triple-checked for accuracy
Updated for March 2025

In Hawaii, there are three tests that all new drivers must pass before they can become eligible for a driver’s license: a vision test, a knowledge test on driving theory, and a road test. However, you must first obtain an instruction permit before you can obtain a driver’s license if you’re under 18 or your county (e.g., Honolulu) requires it. You must be at least age 15½ to get a permit. It will allow you to practice driving under supervision. You must pass the vision and knowledge tests for an instruction permit. (If you hold a permit, you pass the road test for a license.) If you’re under 18, you must also get consent from your parents or other responsible adult. However, the details of this requirement depend on your county; contact them for more information.

The official knowledge test has 30 multiple-choice questions based on the official driver’s manual (Hawaii DMV Handbook (HI Driver's Manual) 2025). The passing score is 80%. The test covers traffic signs and signals, Hawaii traffic laws, the rules of the road, and safe driving practices.

This is our fourth Hawaii Permit Practice Test. We designed it to help aspiring drivers like you pass the DMV knowledge test. This practice test is also multiple choice and based on the official Hawaii driver’s manual. It covers freeway driving, handling emergencies, pedestrians, right-of-way rules, passing, pavement markings, road signs, and safety equipment, among other topics.

Feel free to call on our AI Assistant for help with any practice question. You can ask it for a hint or a clarification. You can also ask it your own questions about driving. If you still miss the question, the AI assistant will give you the correct answer and an explanation of it.

We can’t give you a PDF list of the exact test questions and answers you’ll encounter on your knowledge test. To create a knowledge test, the DMV draws questions randomly from a vast database of candidate questions, so we can’t predict the exact questions you’ll face. However, our practice test questions have proven to be close to the official knowledge test questions that have appeared in the past. Plus, we have two PDF “cheat sheets” (i.e., quick references, not for actual cheating!) that you can download: “The Top 100 Most Common US DMV Questions” and “The 121 Most Common US Road Signs Questions.” You will likely encounter at least some of these questions on your knowledge test. The correct answer is provided for each question listed.

At Driving-Tests.org, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate practice tests to help you prepare for your DMV exam. That's why we've developed a meticulous process to create and continually update our practice questions, ensuring they reflect the most current driving laws and regulations.

Here's an inside look at how we maintain the highest quality in our practice tests.

Content Creation and Verification Process

Alignment with Official Manuals:
Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each state's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each state DMV's website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information.
Community Feedback Integration:
We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation.
Expert Content Creation:
Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy.
Rigorous Review Process:
Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors.
User Feedback Mechanism:
After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly.
Responsive Updates:
In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the DMV manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the DMV publishes them.

Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your DMV exam.
