Everything You Need to Know About the DMV NY Permit Test

Whether you’re turning 16 or 21 getting your first driver’s license, the state of New York requires that you first obtain a learner’s permit and practice with a licensed driver. To receive the learner’s permit, you need to provide some basic paperwork — birth certificate, proof of residency, etc — fill out an application, take a vision test and pass a written test.

What Information Is on the Written Test?

The written test for the permit contains information found in the New York DMV Driver’s Manual. It covers topics such as basic driving rules, state laws and road signs. The state wants to know that you can tell the difference between a stop and yield sign and what speed you need to drive in a neighborhood.

What Is the Test Format?

The test format is multiple-choice questions. While the correct answer appears in the choices, there may be similar choices to ensure that you know the correct response and aren’t just guessing.

How Many Questions and How Many Do You Need to Answer Correctly?

There are 20 questions on the test, and four of the questions are specifically about road signs. The test shows you a picture of the road sign, and you choose the correct meaning of the sign. Remember, when you’re driving, you don’t have time to read each sign.

You must answer a total of 14 questions correctly to pass. Of those 14 questions, at least two of them must be road sign questions.

Non-Native English Speaker?

If English isn’t your first language, and you don’t feel comfortable taking the test in English, the New York DMV has you covered. The DMV offers the permit test in 14 languages, including:

  • English
  • Albanian
  • Arabic
  • Bosnian
  • Chinese
  • French
  • Greek
  • Hebrew
  • Italian
  • Japanese
