Welcome to our free New Jersey Fines and Limits permit practice test! All of our New Jersey practice tests are designed to help you pass the knowledge test for a learner permit. We also hope that this Fines and Limits test will help make you a safer driver by showing you some possible consequences of violating the traffic laws.
This Fines and Limits practice test is up to date as of January 2025. It’s based on New Jersey’s official driver’s manual (New Jersey MVC Handbook (NJ Driver's Manual) 2025) and the New Jersey Revised Statutes.
The 60 questions and answers on this test are primarily concerned with New Jersey’s Point System and various offenses that can lead to your losing your New Jersey driving privileges.
There are questions on the number of points added to your driving record for such common offenses as speeding, tailgating, failing to yield to a pedestrian, and passing a stopped school bus with flashing red lights. There are also questions on the penalties for a first, second, or third conviction for driving under the influence (DUI), including the length of license suspension; the penalties for refusing a breath test for alcohol; and the penalties for reckless driving, driving while your license is suspended for DUI, leaving the scene of an accident (hit and run), and other offenses.
Like the other permit practice tests we offer, this free New Jersey Fines and Limits practice test comes with an 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.
