The practice tests at FreeDMVTest.org are designed to help you study and prepare for the Missouri written knowledge test. Try the first one here:
The written test by Missouri Driver’s License Bureau is a 25-question multiple-choice test on a computer. It is known as the written test simply because you got it on paper in the old days.
Test questions span from signs, signals, and common traffic laws to safe driving techniques and what to do in case of an accident.
You must correctly answer at least 20 of the 25 questions. It is a passing score of 80%, the most common passing score in the United States.
The Missouri test is known for being difficult. The information shows that the failure rate on the knowledge test among young applicants is 61.4%, the highest among the states that collect such data.
If you are looking for easier knowledge tests, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, or West Virginia are where you should live.
Some applicants will probably say yes. Experts will say no.
As described in the Missouri Driver’s Guide, driving theory should help prepare new drivers for real life on the road. Good driving skills often come with experience, but all drivers must know traffic rules, signs, and signals, as well as safe driving theory.
Unfortunately, many states don’t change their driver’s license tests very often. The test format and test questions remain the same. Real questions and answers are often spread in these states on social media. It is tempting just to memorize these questions and answers. Young people who do are also most likely to fail their exams.
You can pass with better preparation and a good understanding of why people fail the exam. Dig into some more useful information on how to pass your knowledge exam here: 7 Important Reminders for the DMV Written Test.
Like all states, Missouri has a Graduated Driver’s License law. This law requires all first-time drivers between 15 and 18 years old to complete a period of supervised driving with a licensed driver (instruction permit) and restricted driving (intermediate license) before getting a full driver’s license.
While holding an instruction permit, a teenager must always drive supervised by a qualified person, grandparent, qualified driving instructor, a qualified driver at least 25 years of age who has been licensed for a minimum of 3 years and has received written permission from the parent or legal guardian, or in case of disability (of the parent, grandparent or guardian), their designee.
During the intermediate phase, a driver with the intermediate license may drive alone except during a late-night curfew (1 a.m. to 5 a.m.). The young driver and all passengers must use seat belts, be free of alcohol and drugs, and not have any traffic violations.
