Driving Test Practice

Our Utah driver's license practice tests are designed to help you prepare for the official Utah DLD driving test as you work your way towards earning your driver’s license. There are several steps to take before earning your Utah driver’s license, however, that includes passing your permit test, a licensed driver’s training course, hitting your minimum number of hours as a permitted driver and then pass the Utah driver’s knowledge test as well as the road skills test. Regardless of where you're at in the process, this site can help you on your way. Just getting your learner's permit? Our tests work perfectly as a Utah learner's permit practice test. Our tests will help you pass on the first try, we'll help you brush up on your knowledge of Utah’s driving laws and help you identify road signs. If you’re looking to gain your Utah CDL or Utah motorcycle license, we have practice tests to help you study for those exams as well. Please feel free to take our Utah DLD (the Utah Driver License Division, also known as the Utah DMV) practice tests as often as you like as you prepare.
