Driving Theory Test Practice for the 2024 DVSA Exam

We have designed this mock test to help you get ready for the real DVSA driving theory test. We have kept the same format of the questions and answers as well as the scoring system. To pass, you need to answer 43 out of 50 multiple-choice questions correctly. If you're not sure of the correct answer to a question, use the Hint (there is one for each question). Retake any one of our tests as many times as you need to; questions and answers are shuffled every time you restart the test.
