Drivers under the age of 18 must participate in Montana’s Graduated Driver Licensing Program. If you’re 16, or 14 ½ and enrolled in a traffic education program approved by the state, your main step to get a learner license is to pass a written knowledge test. The exam consists of 33 multiple-choice questions based on the 2024 Montana Driver Manual and you’ll need to correctly answer at least 27 of the questions to pass. To get your learner license, you’ll need to make an appointment to take your written exam, as well as a vision test, show proof of identity and residence, and pay the $5 fee for your learner license. If you’re a minor, you will have to have parental consent, and if you’re between 14 ½ and 16, you’ll need to show that you’ve completed or enrolled in an approved driver’s education program. Use this MVD practice test to help you study, as you’re only allowed to miss six questions on your test, and if you fail, you’ll need to make another appointment to try on a different day.
