Road signs are important for keeping you safe and traffic around America’s Playground flowing smoothly. Questions about these signs make up a significant portion of your New Jersey driver’s written knowledge test. Failing to demonstrate a firm grasp of recognizing and understanding these signs may prevent you from getting a driver’s license. Considering such a potential heartache, it would be wise for you to spend some time studying road signs and how to understand their attributes and instructions.
Our free New Jersey MVC Road Signs practice test provides expert instruction to improve your recognition and interpretation skills. Road signs help you stay in compliance with road rules and prepare for upcoming road situations. Without these signs, the road would be an uncontrollably chaotic place. For example, a regulatory sign (e.g., Do Not Enter) advises you that it is illegal to move forward. A warning sign (e.g., Deer Crossing) warns you to watch for an upcoming hazard. Road work signs (e.g., Flagger Ahead) provide messaging about conditions in construction zones. Guide signs offer information about directions, locations, and available services, such as hotels.
If you are thinking about using a study guide to prepare for your knowledge test, you should be aware of its limitations compared with the Road Signs practice test. The practice test is based on the most recent New Jersey MVC driver’s manual (New Jersey MVC Handbook (NJ Driver's Manual) 2025) and is up to date as of February 2025. It includes 50 multiple-choice questions, each with four possible answers. Each question uses a picture of a road sign to assess your current knowledge level. If you submit an incorrect answer, you will receive a detailed explanation of the information to make it correct. Study guides will help you memorize the answers to the questions without providing supporting information. Using the information provided through the practice test helps you establish a connection between the question and the answer. It eliminates the possibility of having to rely on guesswork to answer the most difficult questions. You will be equipped with the confidence and information needed to pass your knowledge test and develop impeccable driving habits.
