Why your state matters
The same question has a different right answer in each state.
A few of the rules that change from state to state, each taken from that state’s handbook. Study the wrong state’s numbers and you can miss questions you thought you knew.

DMV written test practice FAQ
Is the DMV written test the same in every state?
No. Each state writes its own driver handbook, its own questions and its own pass line. Following distances, school zone speeds and alcohol limits for young drivers all differ, so practice with questions written from your own state’s handbook.
Which states can I practice for?
California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan. Each has its own question bank written from that state’s handbook and its own practice test.
Are these real DMV test questions?
No. They are original practice questions written from each state’s official handbook. No state agency has reviewed or approved them, and they do not guarantee a pass.
Do the 3D driving lessons work for every state?
The lessons are built on the California Driver’s Handbook. When you choose another state, each lesson shows where your state’s handbook says something different, so you learn the rule you will be tested on.
