NY DMV Test Practice 2025 | Driving-Tests.org
- Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
- Based on official New York Driver's manual
- Triple-checked for accuracy
- Updated for March 2025
New Yorkers always seem to be in a hurry. The Big Apple is probably the fastest-paced city in America. Perhaps this is why the official DMV knowledge test for a learner’s permit has only 20 questions. The questions are based on the official driver’s manual (New York DMV Handbook (NY Driver's Manual) 2025). The passing score is 70% for the entire test and 50% for the four questions on road signs.
Have you taken our first three New York Permit Practice Tests to help you prepare for the official knowledge test? If so, try this practice test now.
Like our first three practice tests, this fourth New York Permit Practice Test is based on the official New York driver’s manual (New York DMV Handbook (NY Driver's Manual) 2025), and its passing score is 70%. This practice test includes questions on road signs, railroad crossings, expressway driving, passing and being passed, parking regulations and techniques, and sharing the road with pedestrians and large trucks. Consider taking the practice test as often as needed to master all the material.
Like the official written test, this practice test is multiple choice. Each question comes with several answer options. You must choose the best or most complete answer. Our AI assistant can help you with any practice question. If you get stuck on a question, ask the assistant to rephrase the question, supply a hint, or answer your own questions about driving. If you still miss the question, the AI assistant will immediately tell you and provide an explanation of the correct answer.
Looking for a PDF list of the exact questions (with answers) you’ll encounter on your written (permit) test? Unfortunately, we don’t know of a legitimate way to make one. To create a written test, the DMV draws questions randomly from a giant database of available questions, so it’s impossible to predict the specific questions they’ll draw for you. However, our tools can give you a good idea of what to expect. Our practice test questions have proven pretty similar to the official test questions. In addition, our written test preparation program includes two PDF “cheat sheets” (though they’re not for actual cheating!): “The Top 100 Most Common US DMV Questions” and “The 121 Most Common US Road Signs Questions.” You will likely encounter some of these questions on your written test. Each “cheat sheet” includes the correct answer for each question listed.
Finally, once you’ve finished practicing with this fourth New York Permit Practice Test, please try our fifth one!
