Practice Permit Test - Your Key to Passing the DMV Learner's Permit Test on the First Try Thursday, August 19, 2010

A practice permit test can be found online, in a good driver education class, or through online driver ed programs. But be careful! All of the online variety are written and edited by people from a variety of backgrounds. An article in a major Sacramento newspaper stated that the owner of one of the top online driver ed courses did have a license...but it was for pest control!

I am the owner of a driving school in Folsom, CA. We have taught driver education and driver training for over 18 years. 10,000 or more students. So we have a pretty good idea of how to prepare our students for the DMV test. In fact we have 2 former DMV Examiners on our staff. Here are some of our recommendations for getting your learner's permit and driver's license...and making sure you are SAFE when you start driving.

• Our first recommendation would be to get yourself into a classroom driver education course. If you take a class as opposed to the online version, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and get clarifications from a living, breathing teacher who can see if you are "getting it" or not. Online? You get it or you don't.
  
  
  


• If you can't find a driver ed class in a classroom, then ask around and find the best possible online driving course.
  
  
  


• Regardless of which way you go, be sure you take a practice permit test...or TEN! The only way to be sure you know the rules of the road, and right down to the smallest detail, is to work through as many practice permit test questions as you can before getting to the DMV. You need to find out just what kind of questions will be asked, how they will be worded, and what kind of details need to be learned. The best free practice permit test one we have found is at the link in this sentence. They offer a free sample permit test of 20 questions with no strings, so you can see how you do and see if you like their product. If you are in California, the dmv has a great free practice permit test too at the their site. The dmv practice test is just like the real thing, of course, and is a good prep for you.

Driving is going to be fun, but it does carry a ton of responsibility. Take the right approach now, by starting off with learning the rules and safety issues before getting behind the wheel. An online course can be "Quick" and "Easy" and "Cheap," but this is no time to cut corners.
