Four-section left-turn signal with the flashing yellow arrow lit

You want to turn left and this signal is showing. What does it mean?

20 practice questions in the style of the knowledge test.

How close are Oregon DMV permit practice tests to the real one?

Close in style, but nobody has the real questions. DMV doesn't publish its question bank. What it does publish is 20 sample questions, each with three choices and a note on which part of the manual it comes from. Ours follow that pattern.

The real test is 35 questions on road signs, traffic laws and other driving information. Some practice sites sell a 35-question set as if it were the actual exam. Treat any of them, ours included, as a way to find the parts of the manual you don't know yet.

DMV's own sample questions

Oregon DMV's practice knowledge test is free, it's in English and Spanish, and taking it doesn't go on your driving record. Do it after you've read the manual once, then come back here for a second set.
