This deserves more views/likes. Passed my written test first take with 2 wrong answers and 2 skips (one of the questions i skipped was a question on when is hand over hand steering allowed). Watching Drivers Ed Direct Driving School videos really helped. #18, #16, #14, #13, #12, #11, #10, #8, #7, #6, #3 #2 came up during my exam but phrased differently. So it's important to also listen to the explanations. In any case, for the exam, you get 3 chances. You can exhaust all your chances the same day if you want but I wouldn't recommend it especially if you are getting way less that the passing score (32/40 or 38/46, I believe). Also, if you are doing the test via a computer booth, you can skip questions (up to 3) if you absolutely dont know and it doesn't count against your overall score. Lastly, you would know if you got it right or not because it'll just move on to the next question if you do. Otherwise, a screen will come up showing you that you got it wrong and it shows you the correct answer to that question.

[@tigrankivranyan]

What does skip do?

[@rikinishu3941]

@@tigrankivranyan skip "discards" the question and gives you another question. skipped questions do not count against your score's numerator or denominator. However, you only get a max of 3 (for the 40-question exam) skips per test session.

[@williampaap2098]

Love the way you present these lessons. I'm getting near 71 and I've got to test this next month.. I'd like to think my driving ability is still more than exceptional. My pet peeves are, people that pass trucks on major highways have a tendency to slow down to damn near the speed of the truck, stacking up traffic, very noticeable on I 5 and Hwy 99. Another is people making right turns have a tendency to turn from the center of the right lane instead of moving closer to the right curb. Another is when you go to pass someone in a passing lane or on an uphill grade they will speed up. Last but not nearly the least, the lack of turn signal use. I believe that if this state is going to make some feeble attempt to encourage proper driving etiquette they should at the very least try to enforce it. Oh, another one is people that use the left lane as their own personal lane. Thanks again for the very informative and enthusiastic and oft time funny, cute presentations.

[@maureenmannion6748]

Just took the knowledge test and thought I would list all I remember. 1. A police officer has the right to know about your car insurance. What to do when car skids. 3. What other vehicles have the right to share the road with light rail vehicle. 4. When a car with high beams is coming toward you where do you look. 5. When is it OK to make a right turn. 6. When to leave a six year old child in car. 7. Tricky one: Driving on freeway see an Emergency Vehicle parked to side of road and a tow truck with flashing yellow lights What do u do. One choice was to put of emergency flashers to warn drivers behind you of the two vehicles. Another was to change lanes, and reduce speed. This was correct answer. Forget other choice. 8. When making a left turn What traffic should you yield to: traffic coming from right; traffic coming from left and 3. Traffic facing you. 3 is correct. 9. Fairly tricky one about being stopped at Railroad tracks.The lights keep flashing after train has gone by. What do you do? Responses were: Go even though lights are flashing; Check tracks and if nothing is coming for 400 ft go. Last one wait for lights to stop flashing. 10.if a driver runs from an accident where someone was seriously injured whats the penalty? 11.where to start a turn from a one way street to a one way st. 12. Which lane to go into on a right turn from2 way street. 13 what direction should wheels be when waiting to make a left hand turn. 14. 2 questions about steering wheel, 9 to 3 position and answer to other was push/pull. That's all I remember now. Will post if I remember later. Good luck.

[@DriversEdDirect]

Maureen!!! Thank you so much for all of that wonderful info - we could make an entire video on your feedback alone... who knows, maybe we will when time allows :) Thanks so much for your thoughtful giving back to the test-taking community here. We appreciate you!

[@maureenmannion6748]

@DriversEdDirect thank you.! If I remember the others will add them. The wording was tricky. Especially the one about the emergency vehicle and tow truck. Spent time on it because of emergency vehicle which was confusing. Then realized it was just parked without lights flashing. Also one of the choices was to alert other drivers with emergency flashers which gave me pause. But then there wasn't an accident. The railroad track one also had answers that were partially appropriate, like noticing no other train was coming for 400 ft which could sound like the correct choice. Also the answers for the question about vehicles that can share the streets with light rail. One answer was pedestrians and something I can't remember. The other was trucks and busses. Finally correct answer was all vehicles. Had concerns about last one but couldn't think of one that wouldn't be allowed on roads.

[@DriversEdDirect]

@@maureenmannion6748 Thanks so much!

[@maureenmannion6748]

@DriversEdDirect remembered 2 more questions on license renewal test. 1. Hand positions on steering wheel, 9 and 3 pm and also definition of push pull. Other was about the rear wheels on a truck making a turn having a smaller rotation compared to front wheels.

13:40 Hello! I wanted to know why the left is preferred to the right. Is it because the blind spot is larger in comparison? Or is there another reason?

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello back! The main reason is that (in the U.S. at least) faster traffic drives in the left lanes, so drivers usually expect to be passed on the left side. When you pass on the right, you often times catch drivers off-guard who don't expect faster traffic to the right of them. Hope that helps!

I got questions like "When railroad didn't put gate, and red signal didn't change yet for the driver and nothing on the tracks yet", should you move after checking the left or right ?. or wait for turning signal to green. my doubt was what if signal didn't work at the time.. any thoughts

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello, great question! According to the CA DMV, if you suspect that the railroad crossing devices are not working properly, then you should not cross and are supposed to call for emergency help. Here is the way it is worded in the DMV Handbook: *Do not go under lowering gates or around lowered gates. Flashing red warning lights indicate you must stop and wait. Do not proceed over the railroad tracks until the red lights stop flashing, even if the gate rises. If the gates are lowered and you do not see a train approaching, call the posted railroad emergency toll-free number or 9-1-1. Be ready to give a detailed description of your location.* Source: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/handbook/california-driver-handbook/laws-and-rules-of-the-road/

One thing that always confuses me is that when driving on a freeway you SHOULD match the speed of traffic so you don't congest traffic, even if it's over the posted speed limit. However, I got a question wrong because it said you should always drive at the posted speed limit even if traffic is driving faster than the speed limit? Don't the 2 sentences above contradict each other? Other than that great and helpful video.

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello and great question - this is definitely one that gets a lot of test takers. You are NEVER legally allowed to drive over the posted speed limit, even if the traffic around you is driving faster. You only go with the flow of traffic when the flow of traffic is driving within the legal speed limit. Hope that helps!

[@luisvaldez4923]

I studied questions in your page and I passed the test, how can I have a proof of study with you, it's for my insurance, thanks !!

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello, CONGRATS on passing! Regarding your insurance, you'll have to ask them what kind of course they would accept for proof. They should be able to provide you with a list of approved courses you can take. Hope that helps!

[@josephsaucedo8691]

High I was wondering if you have a video on question that have to do with when you have probably with your vehicle and the answer like if your gas get stuck wide open or if you have wet brakes and how to dry them. Thanks for your time

[@DriversEdDirect]

Great questions and a great idea - it would be awesome to have a video on how to handle emergency situations, we will add it to the list! With that said, here's how the CA DMV recommends you handle the two situations you brought up: Drying Wet Brakes: If the brakes get wet, dry them by lightly pressing the accelerator (gas) and brake pedals at the same time so that the vehicle drives against the pressure of the brakes. Perform this light pressing only until the brakes dry. Accelerator Malfunction If your accelerator becomes stuck you should: 1- Shift to neutral. 2- Apply the brakes. 3- Keep your eyes on the road. 4- Look for an alternate route away from traffic or look for a way out. 5- Warn other drivers by honking and turning on your emergency lights. 6- Try to drive the car safely off the road. 7- Stop and turn off the ignition. (LAST RESORT) *** Warning: Turning the ignition off while the vehicle is moving may lock the steering wheel; you will not have control of the steering. (Source: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/handbook/california-driver-handbook/handling-emergencies/) Hope that helps!

Do you have the questions for class C renewal test

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello!! This test and our other tests will help prepare you for the class C renewal test. If you are renewing your license, you can ignore the questions about teen driving rules for provisional licenses (first time drivers) - but 99% of these questions apply to ALL class C licensed drivers. Here are some playlists that should help: kzbin.info/aero/PLSP12_67qqUwil4SBSwVz-5nNrYAUasHv kzbin.info/aero/PLSP12_67qqUxyjuZH1X_MgeTiAHUPx6bl kzbin.info/aero/PLSP12_67qqUzqj2Z7x4CPrWKVrEgRf1aF

[@wandapastorino]

hi, how long do we have to answer every question? and if I finished and I failed and I started again it counts as the second one? same day? thanks

[@wandapastorino]

(im confused because I had 2 differents test I don't know why) dmv: Hollywood, CA

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello! That's great question. On the computer test, you have 7 minutes to answer each question. I am not 100% sure if the 2nd test you started would count as an official attempt. With that said, the best advice I can give you is to reach out to the DMV directly, they will be able to tell you how many attempts you have left. You can call the DMV at 1-800-777-0133 or start a chat with them here: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/contacting-dmv/ - just click on "Ask DMV" button in the bottom-right corner of the screen - I personally like the chat option, and I recommend that you request to chat with a live person. From my experience, most of the chat support specialists at the DMV are very helpful and you'll get your question answered within a few short minutes! Best of luck to you!

[@wandapastorino]

@@DriversEdDirect I passed it today 🥹 thanks !!!

[@DriversEdDirect]

You can do it! Make sure you read the handbook too, a few times if you can - that will help more than you think. Best of luck to you!!

[@johnseed855]

where can i read the california handbook?

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello! You can read the CA DMV Handbook online here: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/handbook/california-driver-handbook/ They have many language options available. The also have it available as a PDF here, it looks more like the paperback version and I like it a bit more: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/file/california-driver-handbook-pdf/ Hope that helps!

[@QuandalePringle666]

Yeah I’m failing

[@farhad7132]

HELLO TODAY I WENT TO DMV FOR PERMIT TEST AND I PASSED SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP IS AND I AM ACTUALLY 15 YEARS OLD AND IN THE NEXT 3 MONTH I AM GONNA BE 16. THANK YOU

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello! Congrats on earning your permit! Long story short, now you need to practice with a driving instructor and your parents/guardians for a minimum of 6 months. Before you can practice, you need your permit signed by a driving instructor. California practice minimums are: - 6 hours behind the wheel with a licensed driving instructor - 50 hours behind the wheel with a parent/guardian (10 hours have to be at night) More info can be found on the DMV website here: www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/driver-licenses-identification-cards/driver-licenses-dl/ - then go to the section that says "How to Apply for a Driver's License (DL) if You're Under 18 Years Old" Hope that helps! We are also making a video on this topic and hope to have it released this week or next, thank you!

[@marymontes9501]

Do I have to read all the book can you please get back to me thank you

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello! I would definitely read the entire handbook, it truly will increase your chances of passing!

[@QuandalePringle666]

Finally damn

[@tamenemekonnen2404]

I have one question if I couldn’t pass the test how many time have a chance One or two times Please let me know send me a message appreciate thank you so much

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello, you have 3 chances to pass total, so 2 more chances if you were to fail the first try. If you are a minor, you'll have to wait a week between retakes of the knowledge test or you have to wait 2 weeks if you're talking about retaking the drive test. If you fail the test 3 times, then you must start the application process over from the beginning. Hope that helps!

[@shayavant8736]

Is this for new jersey?

[@DriversEdDirect]

Hello there!! These questions are from CA tests, but most of the info applies to all states. We've had several comments from other state test takers who did well on their test using these videos. However, please be sure to read your state's DMV handbook for the most accurate info - especially in regards to alcohol and drug rules and teen driving laws/restrictions. Take care!
