Mississippi DPS Permit Practice Test Questions 2024
- Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
- Based on official Mississippi Driver's manual
- Triple-checked for accuracy
- Updated for December 2024
To get your driver’s license in Mississippi, you’ll first need to take a written knowledge exam to qualify for a permit. The written test has 30 multiple-choice questions based on the 2024 Mississippi Driver’s Manual. You’ll need to score an 80% or higher to pass the test, meaning you cannot miss more than six questions. Test questions will focus on various topics covered in the manual such as traffic signs, speed limits, safe driving practices including cell phone usage, and right of way. You’re required to hold a permit for 12 months before you can take your driving test if you’re under 17. For those 17 and older, you may choose to take the written and driving test on the same day, but you must pass the written test first. If you’re unable to pass the written knowledge test on the first try, you can take it again the next day; you may retake the test up to three times without consequence. If you require more than three attempts, you’ll have to wait a minimum of 30 days to retest. At the DPS, you’ll need to take a vision test, provide the appropriate paperwork, and pay the necessary fees, such as the $7 permit fee. Your license will cost between $9 and 24 depending on your age. If you’re still a minor, you will also need to provide a school attendance form and parental consent. These Mississippi DPS practice test questions will help ensure you do well on your very first try.

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.
