Road Signs Practice Test for Your Permit

Free road signs practice test for your DMV and CDL permit exam. Each question shows a real US traffic sign and asks what it means — regulatory, warning, and guide signs — with instant answers and explanations. Practice until you can name every sign.

Road signs on the permit test

Nearly every state's driver's-permit (DMV) knowledge test includes a road-signs section that shows you a sign and asks its meaning, and CDL applicants must know the same signs. This practice test uses that exact format, so nothing on test day is a surprise.

How many road-sign questions are on the permit test?

It varies by state — most DMV permit tests include several sign-identification questions, and some states give a separate road-signs test you must pass. Practicing every sign here prepares you for any state's format.
