Illinois Drivers License Test

Test your knowledge on the meanings of traffic rules. To get your Illinois drivers license you are required to take a written test that covers road signs and road rules. This online Illinois drivers license test, with multiple choice questions, is intended to help you prepare for the DMV written knowledge test that is required before you can get your driver’s license. This free practice written driving test is a lesson that is essential for getting your state driver’s license at your local licensing office. Please note, however, that this is not the actual test, and you will not receive your license if you pass this practice test.

Ride and Learn – By this point, you’ve probably ridden as a passenger with family and friends many times. But when you’re studying for a permit, riding along becomes an excellent learning opportunity. By closely observing experienced drivers, you’ll learn a lot about driving basics that’ll help you pass the permit test. So the next time you’re a passenger, watch how the driver goes through intersections, comes to a stop, merges into traffic, and parks, as well as how they respond to various street signs and road conditions. When you’re riding with a driver you know, it’s also a good time to ask questions about different driving situations as you see them. You can learn a lot on the road, even if you aren’t behind the wheel.

A person who repeatedly fails the exam may lose hope and confidence. Failure can also delay or disrupt important life goals and activities. Few employers want to hire someone without a reliable source of transportation. The ability to drive is often a necessity in everyday life. By approaching the permit and license exam the right way, anyone can succeed.
