Our free Tennessee Fines and Limits permit practice test is designed to help you pass your learner permit exam and maintain a perfect driving record. This 50-question practice test is up to date as of January 2025 and is based on Tennessee’s official driver’s manual (Tennessee DMV Handbook (TN Driver's Manual) 2025) and the Tennessee Code. As with the other Tennessee permit practice tests we offer, each question comes with an available hint to gently suggest the correct answer, and an explanation of the correct answer.
The questions and answers on this Fines and Limits permit test will test your knowledge of the consequences of violating traffic laws. What fines are imposed for such common violations as running a stop sign, speeding, and texting while driving? (Know these and other fines for your learner permit test.) And how many points will be added to your driving record for such offenses? What penalties will you face if you’re convicted of driving under the influence (DUI)? Will you have to go to jail even if it was your first offense? Will you have to drive with an ignition interlock device (IID)? How big a fine will you have to pay?
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has estimated that In the United States, about 28 percent of all traffic deaths involve drivers who were drinking alcohol before the accident. Other researchers have estimated that tens of millions of Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related traffic crash at least once in their lives. And between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., about 1 out of 10 drivers on the road is drunk. Vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among 16- to 24-year-olds, and nearly half of those fatal crashes are alcohol related.
In 2022 in Tennessee, there were 1,314 traffic fatalities, including 210 pedestrians killed. 364 (28 percent) of those traffic fatalities were alcohol related (blood alcohol concentration 0.08 or higher), and 219 (17 percent) of those fatalities were speeding related.
The information you’ll learn by taking this Fines and Limits permit test will help you pass your learner permit test. But even after you get a driver’s license and start driving, always remember what could happen if you violate traffic laws. Stay safe!
