I would like to know, and think it would be beneficial for the date this test was last updated and checked with current laws, to be posted at the top of each test. There are tons of sample sites out there, I think yours is fabulous- so long as it's current, which I don't have anyway of being confident of. Thanks for creating! So when was this last updated, and can you post it in the name or somewhere clearly?

what is this?

You have been involved in a minor traffic collision with a parked vehicle and you can't find the owner. You must:

Leave a note on the vehicle. Report the accident without delay to the city police or, in unincorporated areas, to the CHP. Both of the above.

You may drive off of the paved roadway to pass another vehicle:

If the shoulder is wide enough to accommodate your vehicle. If the vehicle ahead of you is turning left. Under no cir***stances.

At intersections, crosswalks, and railroad crossings, you should always:

Stop, listen, and proceed cautiously. Look to the sides of your vehicle to see what is coming. Slowly pass vehicles that seem to be stopped for no reason.

Okay it was helpful, but it didn't show my score...that sucked To all the people complaining about not knowing which answers you got right/wrong. There is a something 4 tabs above the comment section. It's labeled "Check your answers". If you click on that, it should give you the results on which ones you got correct or wrong.

Why do you not give right or wrong answers after taking test? How is a person to learn, and correct??? You're not helping by not advising. Your all gay 15. The safest precaution that you can take regarding the use of cellular phones and driving is: 1.Use hands-free devices so you can keep both hands on the steering wheel. 2.Keep your phone within easy reach so you won't need to take your eyes off the road. 3.Pull over to the side of the road to use your cellular phone..... Correct Answer is #1 Use hands-free devices so you can keep both hands on the steering wheel. It would be helpful to know what question/s we did not answer correctly. This would help us to check our "Driver's Handbook" to correct our mistake/s as well as increase our driver knowledge and skills. Apparently the corect answer to 11 is look to the sides of your vehicle to see what is coming. I blieve the correct answer isstop look listen and proceed with caution.In question 25 I think the answe should b in a bycycle lane, apparntl thou so ery much. Alfred F Millerye aanser is in an umarked cross walk. Otherwise I found the test to e accurate and covers the subject accurately. Thank Win 7, neither in Firefox nor IE does the "Check your answers" appear. Maybe better this way as some comments here say that some answers are rated incorrectly in this program anyway i take the test to day and I make it...awesome..hi everyone keep taking the practise test it help me to pass WOW! this test helped sooo muchh. i only missed two on here and got 100% on my final written test..WOOT WOO :) The tests give some opposite answers for same question. Many questions are left out especially regarding any about drunk driving, license classes, driving points, recinding liscenses, etc. I would like a sample test that most resembles the actual test as I remember it. what's my score what score did i get? i wan know my score i wan to know my score how can i know my score This test hella helped me out so thank u for whoever made this test I find these questions totally helpful. no answers I am a senior citizen that has not taken the written test in years.

Thanks nt even da same need some harder qustions dmv Answers: http://www.sometests.com/printanswers/CaliforniaDepartmentofMotorVehiclesDriversTest.html?seed=1272271458422 It may pop up your printer options, so don't freak. the answers sir????????

Wow....I will explain how to find the answers for the idiots that cant find it. There is a box on the page that contains the icons Share, Email, Print, Suggest, Dispute, Rating, and the approval Rating from Users. Directly under that box is the words "Check your answers" with a lovely arrow next to it. You can click the arrow or "Check your answers" (convenient, right?). It will then show you the questions, the answers you chose, and the correct answer. It will only show the correct and wrong answer if you got it wrong. If it is uncolored like mine, then congratulations, you got them all right. The ones with green, bold letters is the correct answers. The red, bold letters is the retarded answer you put. Hope this helps..... damn i think this think help me more then having to read the book to myself hahahah thank to who ever post this :) and the test question is the same too :) at DMV The answer to question no 16 is WRONG! how many questions are on the real drivers test?? yes this is realy help me. but when i get to dmv i forgoten ! i don't worry iremember if i not going to pay again, just kidding, really help. Wow. This test was pretty cool. Kind of like The Hard Math Test. very helpful for me, in dmv I passed my test without mistakes )) show correct answer show me answer sheet Ridiculous question:The safest precaution that you can take regarding the use of cellular phones and driving is: 1.Use hands-free devices so you can keep both hands on the steering wheel. 2. Keep your phone within easy reach so you won't need to take your eyes off the road. 3.Pull over to the side of the road to use your cellular phone. The exact same question is on the DMV site but the answer is actually 1 over there. Using hands free devices is still safe, obviously, and nobody would pull over to use their phone because you can't even pull over on highways or freeways except in emergencies anyways! How stupid. And yes you can check your answers, it's almost right under the "Optional: earn money for making tests" answer These questions not helpful IF answers are not explained !! Please re-vamp this site to make more learner friendly- stupid question, When you tailgate other drivers (drive close to their rear bumper) 1. You can frustrate the other drivers and make them angry. 2. Your actions cannot result in a traffic citation. 3. You help reduce traffic congestion. what does this have to do with the traffic laws, the correct answer is #1 although this can result in a traffic citation. you are supposed to answer based on the frustration factor of the driver in front of you. i think this question should not be on the test. this is a test about laws, not the frustration of the driver in front of you on the road. who is to know if the driver will be angry. I did really bad the first time i took this test. But then i studied other test alot and took this one again and only got 2 wrong.
