Free Vermont DMV Permit Practice Test 2025
- Perfect for learner’s permit, driver’s license, and Senior Refresher Test
- Based on official Vermont Driver's manual
- Triple-checked for accuracy
- Updated for February 2025
Interested in obtaining your Vermont learner’s permit? We make the process much easier for you. First, you must pass the vision screening and a written permit knowledge test. The test consists of 20 multiple-choice questions covering traffic laws, road signs, safe driving practices, driving under the influence, and what to do in case of an accident, as outlined in the state’s Vermont DMV 2025 Driver’s Manual. To pass, you must score at least 80% (16 out of 20 questions) and testing must take place in person at the DMV. Failing the test means waiting until the next business day and a retesting fe, so use our practice resources to make sure that doesn’t happen.
The Vermont Graduated Driver’s License (GDL) program gradually introduces driving privileges to minors, beginning with the learner’s permit granted to teens at least 15 years of age. With this, the teen driver is allowed to drive when accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 25 years old. This higher age restriction is not applicable to a parent/guardian or course instructor. After holding the learner’s permit for at least 12 months, with no violations for six months, drivers aged 16 or 17 who have completed their driver education course and passed the road test can apply for a junior driver’s license. One special note: in Vermont, individuals under 18 cannot operate a vehicle in the course of work employment (pizza delivery, etc.) unless they have held a junior driver’s license for at least one year.
Updated for February 2025, our free online Vermont Permit Practice Test is designed to simulate real exam conditions with questions and answers based on the state manual. We provide instant feedback for incorrect responses, which has been shown to speed the learning process. Once you’re ready, go to the DMV with proof of identity (birth certificate, U.S. passport), proof of social security number (Social Security card, a W-2, or a pay stub with your Social Security number on it), proof of Vermont residency (recent utility bill, rental agreement, or official document with address on it), and a signed parental consent form if you’re under 18. Submit the documents, pass a vision screening, pay the fee, and take the official written test.
