Driving Theory Test Practice 2025 – Top Tests

This mock driving theory test has just been updated for January 2025 and covers 50 of the most essential questions that will help you prepare for your DVSA test. This test has the same structure as the DVSA exam: you'll need to answer 43 out of 50 multiple-choice questions correctly to pass. Each question has 4 answers, only one of which is correct. While the real test has a time limit of 57 minutes, there's no time limit here: the main goal of this test is to help you get familiar with the DVSA test format. If you provide a wrong answer, the system will display a box with a short explanation of why your answer is wrong and which answer is right. You can check your progress in the grid: correct answers are marked with green, and incorrect answers with red. Good luck!
