California DMV Written Test Help

[Marvin Gaye]

Hey everyone, I'm taking my written test to get my license in a week, and wanted some advice on taking the test. I know not all of you probably live in Cali, probably not even in the US but bear with me.

Are all the questions mostly common sense? Or is it a mix of common sense and trick questions?

I figred since having a car was congruent to being a DJ it was relevant to Sosuave.

I took the NY test over the summer. I'm not sure how similar the tests are. The NY one is 20 multiple choice questions, all of which are answered in the Driver's Handbook. Most questions are relatively easy if you pay attention when you are in the car. Some of the questions were stupid imo. (Ex: What does a white H on a blue sign stand for) Good luck!

they arent trick questions nor common sense questions. like josh said above, the answers are all in the drivers ed handbook. an good example of a question would be "how many feet before a turn do you need to use your turn signal?" a.50 b.30 c.100 the test should have about 40-45 questions and you can only miss 7 or 8 i think. im from cali so i know the details. btw, i think the answer is 100 feet.

The New York test is probably pretty similar, with maybe a few different speed laws here and there. New York is way more hectic than it's brother state across the country, however.

It's a multiple choice test at the DMV. It's not rocket science.

State tests are easy. Mine had dumb questions like, "What do you do to help you see at night?" The picture had a car with its headlights on.

I don't believe there are trick questions. Just study the drivers manual, and this should be easier than any exam you take in school.

Just remember that you drive on the left hand side of the road and give way to your right.

You'll do fine.
