How Can I Apply for my FL Driver's License? Frequently Asked Questions
Here's What Other Learner Drivers from FL Are Saying:
"I passed my test this morning. This site really helps! Study the handbook and practice all the tests on this site."
Marie Claudette Gabriel P., Jacksonville, FL
"I did my test yesterday and I passed both the practice test and driving test. Thank God for this site, I studied all the practice tests and that's the reason why I passed."
Stacey Finegan W., Miami, FL
"Just passed. It helps much. Better to use Exam mode tests. Most of questions are the same but some answer options are different. Read all answer options in full first during actual test. Also reading hanbook and making sure you can answer questions after each sections is highly recommended."
Evgeny S., Tampa, FL
"This site is a life saver!!!! I would have failed my test if it wasn't for the practice test. The questions were either identical or exactly the same. I am sooooo thankful for this site!"
Tyasia B., Orlando, Florida
"I practiced all of these tests and read through the Driving Handbook and passed with 95%. The questions that were on the Test were almost like the ones in the Practice Test. Just make sure the day before you get your learners permit that you do the Marathon Test, that helps so much. This site helped so much, if you want to pass the first time, practice here!"
Daniel D., St. Petersburg, FL
"I took mine this morning. I PASSED! I would highly recommend reading the driver's manual first because some questions on the actual permit are detailed with stuff you need to know in the manual. I took notes down and studied, then I took all 5 of these tests over and over. Some questions are actually on here just reworded differently."
Ashley Evelyn, Kissimmee, Florida
"This site is the real deal. After practicing on all the tests until I got 90% or better, I took the real test and everything came to me so easily."
Chris Smith, Florida
"I studied using these practice tests almost exclusively and passed my permit test! I definitely suggest using this site in addition to studying other sources or even primarily this to take the test. Since, if your like me, this being an interactive way of learning helped me way more versus just reading the driving handbook. Though definitely still give that a look through as it has a LOT of info!"
Rebekah M., Florida
""This is the best driving test preparation there is! Forget about reading the book, these tests are the best. I recommend it to all my friends.""
Ana Paz, FL
""I LOVED this website. 100% awesome. I am 33 years old, NEVER driven any car or EVEN a bicycle before. I live in FL so having your own car is a must. Last year I took the DMV test for learners permit EVEN with the small booklet i failed TWICE. But this year I came across this website, forgot the manual, and just did endless practice tests here...till the questions started repeating. I swear iI didn't even know what's a gas pedal but by the help of google images AND OF COURSE THESE PRACTICE questions, this year i mean just today i took the test again. AND I PASSED IT FIRST TIME without going through the book. I highly recommend going through the manual once and practice on this website and you will do wonderful.""
Amber Naseem, FL
"Life should be as generous as this site!!!I was getting everything right I thought I should just get a few wrong to spice things up..was getting "rightfully" boring!!! Wouldn't have passed easily with fun if not for this site.."
Michael Machiek Chanuong, FL
""Because of this site, along with the drivers handbook, I PASSED!!! I definitely recommended this site to others. I've had my permit for almost a whole year now, and because I was helping my boyfriend I came back. It's gotten even better!!! Now I just need to pass my behind the road test.... haha! :)""
Jennifer Brock, Florida
""I cleared the test in the first attempt. I read the handbook of florida dmv and did this practice test along with florida dmv app on iphone. But now the pattern of test has changed. We need to get 40 correct out of 50 questions. I got only one question on road signs and all others were road rules. I got 2 questions on motorcycle and 2 on trailer, 1 on visibility of tail lights in daytime. The remaining questions were from practice tests. Hope this helps someone.""
Su Kc, Florida
""I studied these tests every day until I got 100% in every single one of them. I took the test today and I passed. I had 3 mistakes, but only because I didn't know a lot about trucks! I hardly didn't read the handbook, but therefor learn these tests. Taking the test was easy, but only if you take these as a practice first.""
Angela Chalkley, Florida
""These tests were amazing! They were so much better than having to read the driving handbook. They really helped me with the actual questions on the written test. When I took the actual test on November 7, 2015, (my birthday) I wasn't nervous because I was able to get 95% or above on all the practice tests. When I finished with the real test, that's just what I got as well!! On my first test I got a 95%! I really recommend anyone to use this website so that they can study some ACTUAL questions. Thank you Driving-Tests.org!! You're the best!!""
Ben Murri, Florida
""This website is awesome! Everything you need; many, many questions with clear feedback if you answer something wrong. It's great to be able to learn by trying, just doing it and learn from your mistakes!""
Patrick Böhner, Florida
"This site really does help. The questions were very similar, if not identical. I practiced and practiced until I got 100% on all exams from driving-tests.org and it paid off. I passed the permit test and only missed 3 questions! I will definitely recommend this site to friends."
Carmen Medina, Florida
""Honestly I didn't study from the book but I practiced all the tests on here and passed on my first try!! I kept going till I kept getting 90% or more. Trust me, everything on here is on the test. PROMISE!!!""
Maria Munoz, FL
"OK, first off, these tests HELPED like you don't know. I was so NERVOUS when I went to the DMV that I even brought the handbook while I was waiting. It wasn't until about halfway through that I started calming down. But, let me tell you that these tests helped! I passed THE FIRST TIME and only got 2 wrong!"
Mireille Azor, FL
""I took the practice tests over the weekend, went in this morning did the permit and passed, got only 3 wrong on the first part of the test, got all correct on the second part. This site is very helpful. ..driving-tests.org is great. Very helpful!""
Cricket Handerson, FL
""These tests were really helpful. They actually help me to gain enough confidence to attend DMV written test. I attempted these tests multiple times and finally obtain 39 out of 40 score in written test for learner's permit. Thank you team!""
Nilima Rodrigues, Florida
""I waited over a year to get my permit. I really honestly didn't care to get it, but my mom wanted me to. I couldn't stand reading the book, too much information. I heard others cheat, or did tons of practice quizzes. So I googled in practice dmv quizzes and this came up. This website is GREAT! Do all the quizzes until you get a 90 or better. But STUDY your handbook as well. Good luck to anyone about to take theirs.""
Esther A., Florida
""This site is great. I kinda waited a while to get my permit but I decided it was getting late so I made a last minute decision to get my permit the next week. So I came here and studied the entire week for about an hour and a half each day and when it came to doing the test, I finished in about 6 minutes and only got 1 wrong out of 40 questions.""
Aaron Hernandez, Florida
""I finally passed the permit test for the first time. I owe it all thanks to driving-tests.org""
Nicholas Green, Florida
""I LOVE this site, all my friends failed their tests the first time. By using this site I was able to pass my permit test on the FIRST try. Some of the questions that were on the practice test were on my actual permit test. So if you want to pass on the first try using Driving-Tests.org!!""
Tiffany Allen, Florida
""This website is extremely effective and I definitely recommend it to anyone trying to get their learner's permit. I took the test today and passed, only missed like 2 questions. It's relatively similar to everything you practice on this site. Make good use of this FREE website, it's great!""
Natalie B, Florida
""These FREE permit practice tests were VERY helpful. I did each practice test at least 2 or 3 times a day. I'm not saying that you shouldn't look in the book at all, but the test gives you more of a understanding of the test format. I would recommend it to anyone else studying to take their test. *Two Thumbs Up*""
Tyra K, Florida
""I spent a week on this website taking the practice tests and reading my driver handbook and at the end it paid off – I passed and walked out with my permit – thanks to this site.. Very very helpful and essential to passing!!!""
Demitri S., Florida
""Just wanted to let you know that these tests were amazing. I had glanced over the state booklet for Florida once or twice before until finding this site and that is when I realized i was not prepared at all. After taking and then retaking all the tests here, I ended up missing only 1 question out of the 40 for my state exam. Thanks again! I couldn’t have done it without this site.""
John Martin, Florida
""Thank you very much for this free online test for the permit test. If it wasn’t for this site I am not sure if I would have passed. Again thanks!""
R Craig, Florida
""I honestly didn’t think I was going to pass my permit test. All of my friends had gotten theirs and I was one of the only ones that didn’t. I read the whole driver’s handbook book and all the practice tests here helped a whole lot! I took every single one and although it was quite time consuming, I passed my real permit test in the end!""
Michelle Le, Florida
""This site is awesome, just came back from the DMV and passed my permit test, got a 98% only missed one! I recommend this site to everyone!""

Courtney Brois, Florida
""I really wanted to get a permit so I can start driving by the time I become a senior in high school. This year i’m a junior. Anyways, I searched online & happened to choose this site thinking it would help me more than other sites I’ve tried. I was lucky I found this because the permit practice tests helped me 100%. After a week of studying including a quick review right before taking the actual test, I passed it in a matter of minutes. It was my first time taking it & I was over the bar nervous! But once I saw the first question, my confidence overtook to nervous out of me. This practice will save you a bunch of the money in your pocket, I guarantee it! =]""
