Safe & Defensive Driving Practices
Study Guide
This test draws 10 questions from the NC DMV Handbook covering traffic laws, road signs, right-of-way rules, safe driving practices, and speed limits. Questions are selected using a fixed seed so Practice Test 2 always presents the same set — making it easy to track your improvement over multiple attempts.
Most states require around 80–83% to pass the written knowledge test. Use these practice tests to benchmark yourself — aim to consistently score 85% or higher before your real NC DMV appointment so you have a comfortable buffer. The results screen shows your exact percentage after each attempt.
Most states allow multiple retakes, though there's typically a waiting period between attempts and sometimes a fee after the first couple of tries. Check the NC DMV website for the exact policy. These practice tests are a good way to pinpoint which topics cost you points before booking your next appointment.
Each test pulls a different fixed set of 10 questions using a unique seed, so Test 1 always shows the same 10, Test 2 always shows a different 10, and so on. Taking all 5 gives you exposure to 50 unique questions. For broader coverage, our premium question bank includes 500+ questions across every topic in the NC DMV Handbook.
