Ohio permit practice test

Fifteen right out of 20 is the bar here, the same 75% the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) asks for on the real 40-question test. This Ohio permit practice test is ours, written from the Digest of Ohio Motor Vehicle Laws, and five of its questions show a sign or a pavement marking.

You’re 15 and a half with your temps. Who may sit in the front passenger seat while you practice?

20 practice questions we wrote from the Digest of Ohio Motor Vehicle Laws.

Does the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) have a practice test?

Yes. The BMV’s Sample Driver License Knowledge Test has 10 questions you answer on its page, then score. The BMV says to take it after you’ve studied the Digest, to see how the real questions are asked.

How close is this Ohio permit practice test to the real one?

The wording on the day will be different, because these questions are ours. Each one tests a rule from Sections 1 to 12 of the Digest, and none repeats a question from the BMV’s sample test, so the two sets don’t overlap. The real test is twice as long, with 40 questions.
