Sample Test #1 |
|
When you apply for a license or permit, Oregon law requires DMV to administer an examination. This examination asks questions about road signs, traffic laws and other information you need to know to drive in Oregon. All information necessary to pass this test is included in the Oregon Driver Manual.
You can test your knowledge with DMV's sample knowledge test #1 (below). This sample test is provided to show you the type of questions asked on the knowledge test and to demonstrate how the test is conducted in the field office.
