We’re glad you’re here to take our free Mississippi Fines and Limits permit practice test! We created our Mississippi practice tests to help folks like you pass the computerized exam for a learner’s permit. By showing you some of the legal consequences of violating the traffic laws, this Fines and Limits test may even help make you a safer driver.
This Fines and Limits practice test is up to date as of January 2025. It’s based on Mississippi’s official driver’s manual (Mississippi DMV Handbook (MS Driver's Manual) 2025) and the Mississippi Code.
The 50 questions and answers on this test primarily deal with various offenses that can lead to the loss of your Mississippi driving privileges (and possibly other penalties) if you’re convicted.
You’ll learn about some offenses (not all of which are driving related) that can result in suspension of your license and other offenses that can result in license revocation for a year. You’ll learn the penalties for a first, second, or third conviction for driving under the influence (DUI) and how the driver can get those penalties reduced. You’ll learn the consequences of refusing chemical testing for alcohol or drugs. You’ll also learn the length of a jail sentence for driving while your license is suspended and for DUI that results in serious injury.
Like the other permit practice tests we offer, this free Mississippi Fines and Limits practice test comes with our automated assistant to help you answer the questions correctly. It can give you a hint if you’re having trouble with a question or an explanation of the correct answer if you’ve answered the question incorrectly.
