Practice online for your driver's license exam

 ADOT offers help for applicants taking the driver license written test

MVD provides online practice tests

PHOENIX – Applicants for an Arizona driver license who have to take the written test have a valuable new tool at their disposal. The Motor Vehicle Division of the Arizona Department of Transportation has created an online written practice exam.

The written practice questions can be accessed at: http://www.azdot.gov/mvd.

There are two practice tests with 10 questions each. The questions are a sample of the type of questions and multiple choice answers that an applicant will find on the actual 30-question test.

All of the answers for not only the practice test but also the actual exam are taken from the Arizona Driver License Manual and Customer Service Guide which can be obtained from any MVD office, authorized third party location or online at http://www.azdot.gov/mvd.

“ADOT wants to prepare applicants to successfully pass the written exam and, more importantly, to motivate them to read the manual prior to completing the driver license exam process,” said Stacey Stanton, ADOT Motor Vehicle Division director. “The manual not only contains the information required for the driver license process but also provides excellent driver and vehicle safety tips.”

The questions are designed to test an applicant’s knowledge of the information any driver is required to possess such as Arizona traffic laws, rules of the road for safe vehicle operation, and common sense driver tips.

Currently, only about 44 percent of Arizona applicants taking the driver license written exam successfully pass it the first time.

“Our goal is for applicants to study the manual and take the practice test before going into an MVD office,” Stanton said. “The motoring public will benefit when we have knowledgeable and safer new drivers behind the wheel.”
