Online now from Idaho Driver's License officials:
practice tests and a mobile app
February 2, 2015
Building on the success of the driver’s license practice-test mobile app, the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) is now offering a free web-based knowledge practice test on its official website.

The practice test consists of 60 multiple-choice questions, and immediately indicates whether the answer is correct or incorrect. The test questions are similar to those on the actual written-knowledge exam given at driver’s license offices throughout the state. This test is also a great way to brush up on Idaho’s rules of the road.

The original practice-test mobile app was launched in June 2014, and since then requests have been pouring into ITD’s Driver Services section for an exam that can also be accessed on any laptop or personal computer.

Like the mobile-app version, this driver’s license practice test is available in both English and Spanish.

“This is a valuable tool, and I hope everyone will take advantage of it,” said ITD Project Coordinator Richard Holloran. “This will show how much people know or don’t know about Idaho’s laws pertaining to driving.”

Idaho partnered with the California Department of Motor Vehicles to use software already created to create the app, and Holloran entered content to make it specific to Idaho.

“Preparing and posting this new learning tool was a great team effort,” said ITD Driver Services Manager Ed Pemble.

Also, a new online bicycle-safety quiz is available on ITD’s website. The quiz provides important laws and safety information not only for bicycle riders, but drivers as well.

“This quiz provides great information on who has the right-of-way at stop signs and stop lights,” added Holloran.

Like the driver’s license practice test, the 50-question, multiple-choice bicycle-safety quiz gives instant feedback once an answer is selected.

The driver’s license practice test and bicycle-safety quiz are both located on the ITD Driver Services website at www.itd.idaho.gov/dmv.

The Idaho Driver’s Manual also is available on that same website, in both English and Spanish.
