Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How many questions are on the Arizona MVD permit test?
The Arizona Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) knowledge test has 30 multiple-choice questions. You need to answer at least 24 correctly (80%) to pass.
What score do you need to pass the Arizona permit test?
You need 24 out of 30 questions correct — a passing score of 80%. Missing 7 or more questions means you fail.
How many questions can you miss on the Arizona MVD test?
You can miss up to 6 questions on the 30-question knowledge test. Missing 7 or more means you fail and must wait 1 day before retaking.
Is there a time limit on the Arizona permit test?
No. The Arizona MVD does not impose a time limit on the knowledge test. Take your time with each question, but go with your first instinct rather than overthinking.
What is the retake policy if I fail the Arizona permit test?
If you fail, you must wait 1 day before retaking. Use that time to review questions you missed. Scoring 90%+ consistently on practice tests is the best preparation before your appointment.
Can I take the Arizona permit test online?
No. As of 2026, all Arizona MVD knowledge tests must be taken in person at an Arizona MVD office or Authorized Third Party (ATP) provider.
What is the minimum age to get a learner's permit in Arizona?
Arizona requires applicants to be at least 15½ years old to apply for a learner's permit. After holding it for at least 6 months, they can apply for a provisional license.
What is Arizona's 'Pull Aside, Stay Alive' rule for dust storms?
When a haboob (dust storm) strikes, Arizona drivers should immediately pull completely off the road, turn off ALL lights including hazard flashers and brake lights, take your foot off the brake, and wait. Leaving any lights on causes other drivers to follow your lights, thinking you are on the road — this has caused multiple fatal crashes in Arizona.
