We've got the perfect solution for you.

 

Getting ready for your driver's test can be a long and stressful process. You have to study the handbook and take multiple generic practice tests before you feel comfortable taking the real thing. The problem is that most of those resources are either too difficult (the handbook), all over the place on the internet or they're not focused on your state's particular requirements (most online practice tests).

Our easy-to-follow questions will help you understand everything from basic road rules to more complex topics such as fines and limits specific to your state. We also provide detailed explanations about why each answer is correct so that you know exactly what to look out for when taking your actual exam.

 

You will cover every section in the official driver's manual, so you won't have to worry about forgetting important notions when you attempt to pass your exam. We've made studying for the DMV test a lot easier.

In order to help you practice for your DMV test, each question has an answer and a corresponding explanation. In some cases, more than one answer might seem correct.

Total Questions 15

Correct Answer to pass 12

Question 1 - Diagnostic Test

The hazard zones around trucks and buses, where accidents are more prone to occur, are referred to as

▢ no-zones

▢ danger zones

▢ stop zones

▢ zero-zones

Question 1 - Diagnostic Test

(A) Do not congregate in a No-Zone! No-Zones are vast regions around trucks, buses, and other large vehicles where cars can disappear into blind spots or get so near that the truck driver's ability to stop or move safely is hampered. There are no-zones in the vehicle's front, back, and sides. It is impossible to totally avoid the No-Zones of a huge vehicle. However, do not stay in a No-Zone for any longer than is absolutely necessary to safely pass the vehicle. Never, ever tailgate a truck.

Question 2 - Diagnostic Test

Is it legal in Delaware to turn left at a steady red signal?

▢ No

▢ Yes, but only when turning left onto a one-way street

▢ Yes, unless a sign says otherwise

▢ Yes, but only when turning left from one one-way street onto another one-way street

Question 2 - Diagnostic Test

(D) When moving from one one-way street to another one-way street in Delaware, you can turn left on a steady red light unless there is a No Turn on Red sign posted there. Before turning, you must still come to a complete stop and yield to all pedestrians and traffic.

Question 3 - Diagnostic Test

What does a double solid white line indicate?

▢ The line divides lanes driving in the same direction, although crossing the line is banned

▢ The line separates opposing lanes, and crossing it is banned

▢ The line divides lanes driving in the same direction, and crossing it is authorized

▢ The line separates opposing lanes, but crossing it is acceptable

Question 3 - Diagnostic Test

(A) A double solid white line separates two lanes driving in the same direction, yet crossing it is illegal. On highways, double solid white lines are commonly used to separate a high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane from other lanes driving in the same direction.

Question 4 - Diagnostic Test

What exactly do these yellow pavement markings indicate?

▢ It's a one-way street

▢ This is a three-way intersection

▢ Right turns are permitted for vehicles moving in either direction

▢ Left turns are permitted for vehicles moving in either direction

Question 4 - Diagnostic Test

(D) This is a shared center turning lane with a two-way left turn lane. Vehicles moving in either direction may perform a left turn (or, if permitted, a U-turn) from this lane. Proceed with caution and keep an eye out for oncoming vehicles when turning left here. This lane should never be used for passing. A solid yellow line and a broken yellow line mark each side of this lane.

Question 5 - Diagnostic Test

If you are labeled a habitual offender, your driver's license will be revoked for up to

▢ three years

▢ five years

▢ four years

▢ seven years

Question 5 - Diagnostic Test

(B) If you are convicted of committing either (1) three significant traffic violations in a five-year period, your license will be revoked for five years, or (2) any 10 traffic offenses in a three-year period, your license will be removed for three years, you will be branded a habitual offender. DUI, hit-and-run, and vehicular manslaughter are all serious traffic violations.

Question 6 - Diagnostic Test

Tires that are unbalanced or have low tire pressures might cause

▢ faster tire wear

▢ increased fuel economy

▢ reduced stopping distance

▢ all of the aforementioned

Question 6 - Diagnostic Test

(A) When the road is wet, worn or bald tires can increase stopping distance and make turning more difficult. Unbalanced tires or low tire pressures can result in faster tire wear and poorer fuel economy, as well as making the vehicle more difficult to steer and stop.

Question 7 - Diagnostic Test

If you intend to turn after passing through an intersection, you should

▢ signal just after you pass through the intersection

▢ not give any turn signal

▢ signal just before you make the turn

▢ signal before you pass through the intersection

Question 7 - Diagnostic Test

(A) If you intend to turn beyond a junction, signal just after passing past it. If you signal too early, another driver may mistakenly believe you are turning at the intersection.

Question 8 - Diagnostic Test

If your driver's license has been suspended due to an excessive number of points, _______.

▢ you will be required to take a driver improvement course

▢ you will be required to drive under supervision

▢ you will face a fine

▢ all of the above scenarios are possible

Question 8 - Diagnostic Test

(A) If your license has been suspended due to a high number of points, you must additionally complete a behavior modification/attitude-driving course before your license can be reinstated.

Question 9 - Diagnostic Test

You should use _______ to avoid driving faster than the distance you can see ahead of you.

▢ the two-second sight distance rule

▢ the four-second sight distance rule

▢ the three-second sight distance rule

▢ the one-second sight distance rule

Question 9 - Diagnostic Test

(B) If you drive faster than you can see ahead, you may not be able to stop in time to escape a disaster. To avoid this, use the four-second sight distance rule to safely come to a halt. Choose a stationary item as far ahead as you can see. Begin counting with one-one-thousand, two-one-thousand, three-one-thousand, and four-one-thousand. If you arrive at the object before you have finished counting four-one-thousand, you are going too quickly and should slow down.

Question 10 - Diagnostic Test

If you are found guilty of exceeding the posted speed limit by 1 to 14 mph, no points will be added to your driving record if this is your first traffic violation in

▢ two years

▢ a year

▢ three years

▢ four years

Question 10 - Diagnostic Test

(C) Normally, if you are found guilty of exceeding the posted speed limit by 1 to 14 mph, up to four points will be added to your driving record. If this is your first traffic ticket in three years, no points will be added to your driving record.

Question 11 - Diagnostic Test

You should _______, if you're being tailgated.

▢ move into the left lane if possible

▢ move into the right lane if possible

▢ reduce your speed quickly

▢ accelerate your pace

Question 11 - Diagnostic Test

(B) If you're being tailgated and there's a right lane available, move into it to allow the tailgater to pass you. If there is no right lane, wait until the road ahead is free, then gradually reduce your speed. This will provide an incentive for the tailgater to pass you. Never accelerate to satisfy or outdistance a tailgater. Some tailgaters believe that no speed is too fast.

Question 12 - Diagnostic Test

In Delaware, you are not required to stop for a school bus that has come to a stop on the opposite side of a roadway with

▢ a minimum of two lanes

▢ a common center lane

▢ a minimum of four lanes

▢ a minimum of three lanes

Question 12 - Diagnostic Test

(C) Normally, regardless of which side of the road the bus is on, you must stop for a school bus with flashing red lights. In Delaware, however, there is an exception: you do not have to stop if the bus is stopped on the other side of a four-lane highway. Even so, you should take your time and approach with caution. Because children may not understand the laws of the road, they may do something unexpected.

Question 13 - Diagnostic Test

Which of the following are two different kinds of speed signs?

▢ Accident speed signs and advisory speed signs

▢ Speed limit signs and advisory speed signs

▢ Speed warning signs and speed information signs

▢ Signs denoting speed limits and accident speeds
