Yes — the NY DMV written knowledge test is the same statewide. Whether you're getting your license in New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, Syracuse, and Albany, or anywhere else in New York, this practice test covers exactly what the examiner will ask. Traffic laws and road rules are set at the state level, so there's no city-specific version of the test.
No account is needed — just open the test and start answering. Without an account your scores aren't saved between sessions, but all 50 questions across the 5 tests are fully accessible. Creating a free account lets you track your progress over time and pick up where you left off.
Very similar. Every question is sourced from the official New York DMV Handbook and written in the same multiple-choice format as the real test. The question bank is reviewed regularly to reflect the current edition. While the exact questions on your actual exam will vary, the topics, difficulty, and wording style closely mirror what you'll face at the NY DMV.
Work through all 5 free practice tests and read every explanation carefully — understanding the rule behind a correct answer is far more effective than memorising answers. Focus extra time on questions you miss. Consistently scoring above 85% is a strong indicator you're ready. For even deeper prep, the NY DMV Handbook and our premium question bank of 500+ questions are the fastest way to the highest pass rate.
