Maryland Permit Practice Test

Question Mix on the Maryland Test

This practice test runs 20 multiple-choice questions split four ways: seven on road signs, six on rules of the road, two on pavement markings, and five on Maryland-specific facts. The sign, rule, and marking questions cover standard US road knowledge; the state questions come only from the verified facts below.

Maryland Rules the Test Draws On

Four facts about Maryland drive the state portion of the quiz:

• Driver licensing is handled by the Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA).
• The minimum age for a learner’s permit is 15 years and 9 months.
• Drivers under 18 must complete 60 hours of supervised driving practice.
• The per-se blood alcohol limit for adult drivers is 0.08.

Those four claims are the only Maryland-specific statements this page makes. Everything else in the test is general road knowledge that applies in any state.

Taking the Test

Questions appear one at a time, each with four answer options. The moment you choose, the test marks your answer right or wrong and shows a one-line explanation. When all 20 questions are done, you get a complete review of what you answered and what the correct choices were. Your best score is saved in your browser, so a better run replaces it automatically.
