Driving Practice Test

Wisconsin is a big, beautiful state and having a Wisconsin driver’s license will let you take in the natural beauty of the entire state regardless of Wisconsin's famous changing weather conditions--rain, sleet, or snow. So as you prepare for the Wisconsin driver’s test, you’ll want to make sure you give yourself the best chance possible to pass the test on your first try. Of course, you should be using your permit (assuming you’ve already passed the Wisconsin permit test) as you prepare for the all-important Wisconsin road test, but before you get to that point you need to pass the written knowledge portion of the exam.
