It’s likely you came here to take some of our other practice tests to help you pass the official written test or road sign test for a Missouri instruction permit. If so, we certainly hope you found our practice tests helpful! Those practice tests are mainly about the rules of the road and other traffic laws in Missouri. But this practice test, which you’re about to take, isn’t primarily about those things.
Many of the questions on this free Missouri Fines and Limits permit practice test are about the official penalties you may face if you violate the rules of the road or other traffic laws, especially the loss of driving privileges. Some of the questions on this practice test are among the hardest we offer. They are also a reminder that violating the traffic laws can have serious consequences.
This practice test is up to date as of December 2024. The 50 questions on this practice test are based on Missouri’s official driver’s manual (Missouri DOR Handbook (MO Driver's Manual) 2024) and the Missouri Revised Statutes.
On this practice test, you’ll learn how many points are added to your driving record for such common violations as speeding, careless and imprudent driving, and allowing an unlicensed driver to drive your vehicle. You’ll learn the consequences of excessive point accumulation, including the number of points on your driving record that can lead to suspension or revocation of your driver license. You’ll also learn how the points on your driving record can be reduced.
You’ll learn the lengths of license suspension for a first and a second DWI charge and the penalties if the driver is convicted. You’ll also learn the lengths of license suspension or revocation for a first, second, and third offense of a driver under 21 who buys or possesses alcohol.
As with all the permit practice tests we offer, each question on the Missouri Fines and Limits permit practice test comes with an optional hint and an explanation of the correct answer, courtesy of our automated assistant.
