A study plan for the New York permit test
- Read Chapters 4 through 11 of the New York State Driver’s Manual once, then work through the cards in order.
- Learn the distances as a set: parking near hydrants, crosswalks, signals and railroad crossings, then the signal and passing distances.
- Say the answer out loud before you flip, and repeat the cards you miss until they stick.
- Use the DMV chapter quizzes and the road signs quiz to check yourself, since this deck skips sign shapes.
- Before your first drive, read the permit and junior license cards for your region: New York City, Long Island or upstate.
New York permit test questions, answered
How many questions are on the New York permit test and what score do I need?
The Driver’s Manual says you must correctly answer at least 14 of the 20 questions, including 2 of the 4 questions about road signs.
Is there a time limit on the New York permit test?
The DMV manual and permit test page we checked do not publish a time limit, so we do not state one. Ask your DMV office if you need to know.
What should I study for the New York permit test?
The manual says Chapters 4 through 11 include the material you must know for a Class D, DJ or E learner permit test, and that Part 1 is not covered. It also has a road signs section with its own quiz.
How much does a New York learner permit cost?
It depends on your age and whether you live in a Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District county. The DMV fee chart lists Class D or DJ at $80.00 at age 16 to 16 and a half, or $90.00 with the district fee. An Enhanced permit is $30.00 more.
Do I need a pre-licensing course in New York?
Yes, most drivers need the 5-hour Pre-Licensing Course before the road test. The DMV says you can skip it by completing a 48-hour driver education program through a high school or college.
Can a junior license holder drive in New York City?
No. Vehicle and Traffic Law 501(3)(c) prohibits Class DJ driving in the city of New York, and the DMV Graduated License page says so too. Junior permit holders may drive there from 5 AM to 9 PM only, with specific supervisors and a dual control vehicle.
