Topic 1 · Introduction
The DMV written test is based on information from:
- The California Driver Handbook — correct answer
- A friend’s advice
- The vehicle registration form
Why
Every question comes from the California Driver's Handbook. (Handbook, Section 3.)
Practise this in the real format
Reading one answer is not the same as sitting the test. The simulator runs the first-time adult form: 36 questions, 6 mistakes allowed, 83% to pass.
