The New York State Thruway system spans 570 miles and is one of the largest toll highway systems in the United States. The Thruway connects New York to Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and the Canadian province of Ontario. Residents of the Empire State who work or study in the Big Apple use these roads for their daily commute. Having a personal vehicle and a driver’s license gives them more flexibility to manage their travels. Since driving involves a lot of responsibility, the DMV has a strict licensing process. One of the first challenges you’ll encounter is the official written knowledge exam. It consists of 20 multiple-choice questions on traffic laws, road signs, safe driving practices, and other aspects of driving theory.
Most students use the official New York driver’s handbook (New York DMV Handbook (NY Driver's Manual) 2025) as their primary study resource. However, there are alternatives that will make it easier for you to understand driving theory and build the foundation for your driving skills. Our New York DMV permit practice tests are designed to help you pass the official written knowledge test on your first attempt. Each practice test consists of 40 multiple-choice questions. To pass, you must score at least 80%. As a beginner, you’re more likely to fail during your first few attempts. Should that happen, do not let your mistakes discourage you. Instead, pay attention to the detailed explanations, which will help you understand the reasoning behind each correct answer.
If the complex aspects of driving theory confuse you, please ask our AI coach for further explanation. You can initiate a conversation with our automated assistant at any point during an active training session. Request real-life examples or hints that nudge you in the right direction without revealing the correct answer. Since we have omitted any timer from our practice tests, you can learn at your own pace without being pressured by a countdown. Start today and dedicate the following weeks to your learning phase. With consistency and repetition, you’ll be able to pass the official knowledge exam on your first attempt.
