  1. GDL & fees

    1. Before applying for a driver's license, how long must an Indiana driver under 21 hold a valid learner's permit?

    • A 30 days
    • B 90 days
    • C 180 days
    • D 365 days

    Correct answer: C. Indiana requires drivers under 21 to hold their learner's permit for 180 days — about six months — before the driving skills exam. The wait builds supervised experience across seasons. Tie it to the number: 180 days, half a year.

  2. GDL & fees

    2. Indiana's Log of Supervised Driving Practice must show 50 total hours. How many of those hours must be completed at night?

    • A 5
    • B 10
    • C 15
    • D 20

    Correct answer: B. Indiana's 50-hour supervised practice requirement includes at least 10 nighttime hours, because crash risk climbs after dark for new drivers. Remember the 50/10 split — one hour of night practice for every five overall.

  3. GDL & fees

    3. During the first 180 days with an Indiana probationary license, which passenger may ride even when no qualifying supervisor is in the front seat?

    • A A 17-year-old best friend
    • B A 20-year-old coworker
    • C A neighbor's child you babysit
    • D Your sibling

    Correct answer: D. Indiana's probationary passenger rule bars most passengers for 180 days unless a licensed adult 25 or older (or spouse 21+) sits up front, but your own child, stepchild, sibling, or spouse may ride. Family rides free; friends must wait.

  4. GDL & fees

    4. For the first 180 days after getting an Indiana probationary license, when are you barred from driving unless an exception applies?

    • A Between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.
    • B Between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.
    • C Between midnight and 6 a.m.
    • D Between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m.

    Correct answer: A. New Indiana probationary licensees may not drive between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. during their first 180 days unless working, attending school or religious events, or supervised. Think 'ten to five' for your first six months.

  5. GDL & fees

    5. After the first 180 days, an Indiana probationary driver under 18 may not drive during which weekend hours?

    • A 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.
    • B 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. Saturday and Sunday
    • C Midnight to 7 a.m. Saturday only
    • D 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Friday and Saturday

    Correct answer: B. Once past 180 days, Indiana drivers under 18 still face a curfew: no driving after 11 p.m. Sunday-Thursday, before 5 a.m. Monday-Friday, or between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Weekends allow later nights, never all-nighters.

    6. An 18-year-old with an Indiana probationary license may use a cell phone behind the wheel only for what purpose?

    • A Checking navigation apps
    • B Answering calls from parents
    • C Calling 911 in an emergency
    • D Texting while stopped at red lights

    Correct answer: C. Indiana bans probationary license holders from using any telecommunications device while driving; the single exception is a 911 call for a genuine emergency. Hands-free allowances for adults do not apply — under 21, the phone stays off.

    7. If you fail the Indiana BMV knowledge exam on Tuesday morning, when is the earliest you can try again?

    • A The next business day
    • B That same afternoon
    • C After a 7-day wait
    • D After a 30-day wait

    Correct answer: A. Indiana allows one knowledge exam attempt per day: after a failure you must wait until the next business day to retest. Use the gap to reread weak chapters — a passing score then stays valid for 180 days.

  8. Speed

    8. In an Indiana highway work zone, how far below the area's normal maximum is the work site speed limit set?

    • A At least 25 mph below
    • B At least 20 mph below
    • C At least 5 mph below
    • D At least 10 mph below

    Correct answer: D. Indiana sets work site speed limits at least 10 mph under the established maximum for that stretch, protecting workers and funneling traffic through narrowed lanes. Some limits apply only when flashing; obey them whenever posted.

  9. Speed

    9. On school days in Indiana, when do school zone speed limits commonly apply?

    • A 24 hours a day, every day
    • B 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, or when beacons flash
    • C Only during morning drop-off
    • D Weekends and holidays included

    Correct answer: B. Indiana school zone limits commonly run 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays or whenever the school speed beacons are flashing, and local rules can extend them when children are present. Flashing lights always mean slow down.

  10. Speed

    10. How many points does the Indiana BMV add to your record for driving 26 mph or more over the speed limit?

    • A 2 points
    • B 4 points
    • C 6 points
    • D 8 points

    Correct answer: C. Indiana's point scale for speeding climbs in steps: 1-15 mph over brings 2 points, 16-25 over brings 4, and 26-plus brings 6. Points invite license suspension review, so bigger speed gaps mean bigger records.

  11. Alcohol & drugs

    11. Under Indiana's implied consent law, what happens the first time a driver refuses a certified chemical test?

    • A A written warning only
    • B A 30-day suspension
    • C A $500 fine with no suspension
    • D A one-year license suspension

    Correct answer: D. Refusing a chemical test in Indiana triggers a one-year suspension of driving privileges — two years with a prior OWI conviction. Refusal punishes worse than failing, which suspends for 180 days. Consent rides along with your license.

  12. Alcohol & drugs

    12. A driver who fails a chemical test in Indiana faces a suspension of driving privileges for how long?

    • A 180 days
    • B 30 days
    • C One year
    • D Ten days

    Correct answer: A. Failing a chemical test in Indiana brings a 180-day suspension even before any OWI conviction, because test results alone establish probable cause. Compare: refusing the test costs a full year. Fail, six months; refuse, twelve.

    13. A first OWI conviction in Indiana can bring up to one year in jail plus a fine of up to what amount?

    • A $1,000
    • B $5,000
    • C $500
    • D $25,000

    Correct answer: B. A first Indiana OWI conviction carries up to one year in jail, up to a $5,000 fine, court costs over $300, and license suspension of up to two years. Remember the pairing: one year behind bars, five grand behind it.

  14. Sharing the road

    14. You are driving in Indiana on a highway divided by a concrete barrier when an oncoming school bus stops with red lights flashing. What must you do?

    • A Stop until the stop arm retracts
    • B Slow to 20 mph and pass
    • C Continue driving — only traffic traveling the bus's direction must stop
    • D Honk and proceed slowly

    Correct answer: C. Indiana requires all drivers to stop for a school bus with red lights and stop arm out, except oncoming traffic on a roadway divided by a barrier or unimproved median. Ignoring a stop arm can be a Class A misdemeanor.

  15. Emergencies

    15. Under Indiana's Move Over law, you approach a stopped ambulance with flashing lights but cannot safely change lanes. What does the law require?

    • A Slow to 10 mph below the posted limit and proceed with caution
    • B Maintain speed but turn on hazard lights
    • C Stop completely in your lane
    • D Honk to alert the crew

    Correct answer: A. When you cannot move over for a stopped emergency vehicle in Indiana, you must slow to 10 mph under the posted limit and pass carefully. Violations are Class A infractions. Move over if you can; slow down when you can't.

  16. GDL & fees

    16. Which agency administers the learner's-permit knowledge test in Indiana?

    • A Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV)
    • B The Federal Highway Administration
    • C The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
    • D The US Department of Education

    Correct answer: A. In Indiana, driver licensing — including the permit knowledge test — is run by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV). Federal agencies write guidance and fund programs, but they do not hand you a Indiana permit. When in doubt, start at the BMV site.

    17. You need to confirm a Indiana permit rule you saw on a practice site. What is the authoritative place to check?

    • A The Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) website or official Indiana driver handbook
    • B A random social-media reel with no date
    • C A forum post from 2014
    • D Any paid app's splash screen

    Correct answer: A. Practice sites, including this one, can be wrong or out of date. Indiana's BMV publishes the handbook and the current rule. If two sources disagree, the official Indiana page wins. Date-stamp what you read.

    • A Indiana's Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) and Indiana law
    • B A national driving school franchise
    • C Wikipedia editors
    • D Your insurance agent's blog

    Correct answer: A. GDL hours, night limits, and passenger rules are Indiana law, explained by the BMV. A school or insurer may summarize them, but they are not the source. Learn the Indiana version, not a generic US version.

    19. What does the BMV officially call the Indiana permit written exam?

    • A Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs)
    • B The federal interstate qualifying exam
    • C The commercial learner permit skills pad
    • D The motorcycle only road course

    Correct answer: A. The BMV names the Indiana exam the Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs). Informal names like permit test or written test point at the same test. Use the official name when you book or look up retake rules.

    • B Only as a paid paperback with no public copy
    • C Exclusively inside a third-party app store listing
    • D It is not published; testers invent questions

    Correct answer: A. The BMV publishes the Indiana handbook for free. That book is the source the knowledge test is written from. Our questions are original study items grounded in those rules, not a substitute for reading the handbook.

    21. What is the minimum age to apply for a learner's permit in Indiana?

    • A 15
    • B 14
    • C 18
    • D 21

    Correct answer: A. Indiana lets you apply for a learner's permit at 15, according to the BMV. You still have to pass the knowledge and vision screens and meet any parent-consent rules. Age opens the door; it does not skip the test.

    • A 80%
    • B 50%
    • C 40%
    • D 99%

    Correct answer: A. You need 80% to pass the Indiana Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs). Percentages feel abstract until you miss a cluster of signs. Train above the line so test-day nerves do not drop you under 80%.

    23. For a driver 21 or older in Indiana, the per-se BAC limit is:

    • A 0.08%
    • B 0.12%
    • C 0.15%
    • D 0.20%

    Correct answer: A. Indiana sets the adult per-se limit at 0.08%. That is a legal line, not a recommendation to drink up to it. Impairment starts earlier, and Indiana can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.

    • A 0.02%
    • B 0.08%
    • C 0.10%
    • D 0.15%

    Correct answer: A. Indiana uses a zero-tolerance style rule for under-21 drivers: 0.02%. Adult limits do not apply to a teen permit holder. If you are under 21 in Indiana, treat alcohol and keys as incompatible.

  25. Speed

    25. Unless a sign posts another limit, the usual residential or city default in Indiana is:

    • A 30 mph
    • B 55 mph
    • C 70 mph
    • D 15 mph unless signed

    Correct answer: A. Indiana's typical unposted residential / city default is 30 mph. School zones and work zones drop lower. If houses line the street and no sign argues, start at 30 mph and watch the next plaque.

    Correct answer: A. Indiana's highest posted highway limit is 70 mph. Most stretches are lower, and work zones or weather can cut it further. Do not assume every freeway in Indiana is signed at the state maximum.

    27. Can you take the official Indiana Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs) from home on the internet?

    • A No. The BMV gives the Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs) in person, not as a take-home web exam
    • B Yes, anyone may take it on a phone in bed
    • C Yes, but only on social media
    • D Yes, and a screenshot of a practice test counts

    Correct answer: A. The BMV administers the Indiana Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs) in person. Practice tests online are study tools, not the official exam. Show up with the documents the BMV lists, and do not expect a home browser to replace the office test.

    • A $9.00 for a learner's permit (driver's or motorcycle). A driver's license costs $17.50 for applicants under 75. No separate knowledge exam fee is listed on the BMV fee chart (revised 1/1/26).
    • B There is never a fee in Indiana
    • C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
    • D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA

    Correct answer: A. The BMV lists this Indiana amount: $9.00 for a learner's permit (driver's or motorcycle). A driver's license costs $17.50 for applicants under 75. No separate knowledge exam fee is listed on the BMV fee chart (revised 1/1/26).. Fees change, and extras like photos or late replacements can stack.

    29. If you fail the Indiana Knowledge Exam (two multiple-choice sections: traffic maneuvers and traffic signs), which statement matches the BMV's published retake rule?

    • A If you fail the knowledge exam, you must wait until the next business day to retake it. No appointment is needed (walk-in), but you must arrive at least 30 minutes before the branch closes. A passing result is valid for 180 days.
    • B You are banned from driving in Indiana for life
    • C You may retake it immediately with no limits, forever, for free, at any kiosk
    • D The BMV never allows a second try

    Correct answer: A. Indiana's published retake rule is: If you fail the knowledge exam, you must wait until the next business day to retake it. No appointment is needed (walk-in), but you must arrive at least 30 minutes before the branch closes. A passing result is valid for 180 days. Use the wait to restudy the handbook chapters you missed. Showing up unprepared a second time just spends another attempt.

An ASL interpreter can be scheduled in advance (not same-day).
    • B English only in every office, with no exceptions listed
    • C Latin and Esperanto only
    • D The test is offered as a mime exam with no written language

    Correct answer: A. Language options in Indiana: English plus 19 additional languages: Arabic, Burmese, Chin, Croatian, French, German, Haitian Creole, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin (Simplified Chinese), Polish, Punjabi, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Swahili, Tagalog, and Vietnamese. An ASL interpreter can be scheduled in advance (not same-day). Ask at the office or on the BMV site when you schedule, because not every location stocks every language every day. Bring an interpreter only if the BMV says that is allowed.

    • B 80 percent overall even if one section is weak
    • C 70 percent on signs only
    • D A perfect combined paper

    Correct answer: A. BMV grades traffic maneuvers and traffic signs separately, and each part must hit 80 percent. A high score on one section cannot rescue the other. The agency does not publish how many questions sit in each part.

    • B 16 on the birthday
    • C 15 years and 180 days
    • D 18 only

    Correct answer: A. Indiana licenses at 16 with driver education, or at 16 years and 270 days without it. Either path still needs a 180-day permit hold and 50 supervised hours including 10 at night.

    • B 1:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. from day one
    • C Sunset to sunrise
    • D There is no night restriction

    Correct answer: A. The opening 180 days keep probationary drivers off the road from 10:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. and keep extra passengers off the ride unless a qualifying adult sits in front (immediate family excepted). A night curfew continues until 18.

    • B On the 15th birthday with no course
    • C Only after turning 16
    • D After 50 practice hours with no permit

    Correct answer: A. Indiana issues permits at 15 to students in a BMV-licensed driver-education program, and at 16 otherwise. A plain 15th-birthday visit without that enrollment does not open the permit.

    36. When you stop at an Indiana railroad crossing, how close to the nearest rail may you stop?

    • A No closer than 15 feet and no farther than 50 feet
    • B Against the first rail
    • C 100 feet back every time
    • D Anywhere the gates are up

    Correct answer: A. Indiana law says always stop at railroad crossings not closer than 15 feet or farther than 50 feet from the nearest rail, unless the tracks are abandoned and marked that way. Hugging the rail or stopping a block away both miss the window.

    • A The funeral procession, regardless of the traffic signal
    • B Whoever has the green light
    • C The larger vehicle
    • D Pedestrians only

    Correct answer: A. Indiana says official processions, such as a funeral procession, have the right of way regardless of a traffic signal that indicates otherwise. Do not cut the line because your light turned green.

    • A Any other time visibility is less than 500 feet
    • B Only when visibility is less than a mile
    • C Never in fog during the day
    • D Only on county roads

    Correct answer: A. Indiana requires headlights between sunset and sunrise and at any other time visibility is less than 500 feet. When headlights are on, dim them for oncoming traffic. Five hundred feet is tighter than states that use a 1,000-foot rule.

    • D They must blow a whistle

    Correct answer: A. Indiana says travel aids for a person who is visually impaired are often a white cane or a trained guide dog. Independent travel involves risk that drops when drivers notice those cues, slow down, and yield.

    41. An Indiana school bus has flashing red lights and the stop arm extended. When may you skip the stop?

    • A Only if you are on a roadway divided by a barrier or unimproved median and traveling the opposite direction from the bus
    • B Anytime children look seated
    • C If you tap the horn
    • D Never on any Indiana road

    Correct answer: A. Indiana requires a stop for a school bus with flashing red lights and an extended stop arm. If you are driving on a roadway divided by a barrier or unimproved median, you stop only when traveling in the same direction as the bus. Yellow flashing lights mean the bus is about to stop, so be ready.

    • B 50 feet both ways
    • C Never; high beams stay on
    • D Only in fog

    Correct answer: A. Indiana says low beams must be used when approaching within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle or when following within 200 feet of the rear of another vehicle. Those two numbers are the written-test pair for night driving.

    43. How does an Indiana traffic circle differ from a modern roundabout?

    • A A traffic circle may run clockwise and counterclockwise, and its approaches may be controlled by stop signs instead of yield signs
    • B A traffic circle always uses yield signs and one-way counterclockwise flow only
    • C Indiana bans traffic circles
    • D A traffic circle is the same as a four-way stop

    Correct answer: A. Indiana’s driver’s manual draws a line between the two. A traffic circle may have clockwise and counterclockwise traffic, and the approaches to the circulating roadway may be controlled by stop signs instead of yield signs. A modern roundabout is one-way and yield-on-entry. Read the signs; do not assume the circle works like a roundabout.

    44. An Indiana pedestrian hybrid beacon has just been activated. What does the first flashing yellow light tell drivers to do?

    • A Clear the crossing; a steady yellow will follow to warn that the right-of-way is ending
    • B Treat it as a stop sign immediately
    • C Speed up to beat the pedestrian
    • D Ignore it until the lights turn red

    Correct answer: A. Indiana’s pedestrian hybrid beacon first shows a flashing yellow so drivers can clear the crossing. A steady yellow then warns that the right-of-way is ending before the stop display. Do not treat that first flash as a protected green.

    • A Stop; the flagger controls the lane until you are released
    • B Pass on the shoulder if the light is green
    • C Follow only the nearby speed-limit sign
    • D Honk and continue

    Correct answer: A. Indiana posts flaggers at each end of some work zones to control traffic. You must stop when a flagger extends a paddle or gives a stop signal. Work-zone directions override the ordinary through movement you expected.

    • A The officer’s command is the one that must be obeyed
    • B The signal always wins
    • C The newer of the two devices
    • D Whoever is closer to the intersection

    Correct answer: A. Indiana says an officer’s command is the one that must be obeyed. Official processions already have their own right-of-way rule. If a hand signal says stop at a green, you stop, then go when the officer says so.

    • B Merge at the first warning sign a mile back
    • C Block the ending lane so others cannot pass
    • D Stop in both lanes

    Correct answer: A. Indiana says some lane closures use late or zipper merging to shorten the backup. Signs mark those cases. Stay in your lane until the merge point, then take turns. Cutting over early and blocking the ending lane is the mistake the work-zone chapter warns about. Slow down as you approach.

    • B Anytime on an Indiana two-lane road
    • C Only after the rider waves
    • D A mirror’s width is enough

    Correct answer: A. Indiana tells drivers they may pass a bicyclist when there is a safe amount of room beside the rider — a minimum of three feet — and no danger from oncoming traffic. Yield to a cyclist as you would to another vehicle. Riders may go two abreast, but not more, except on a path set aside for them. Three feet is the Indiana pass number.

    49. You reach an Indiana median U-turn or J-turn intersection and want to go left. What do the signs tell you to do?

    • A Go through the intersection, then make a U-turn at the upcoming median opening instead of a direct left
    • B Cut across the Indiana median at the first gap
    • C Stop in the through lanes until traffic clears both ways
    • D Turn left from the right shoulder

    Correct answer: A. Indiana uses median U-turn or J-turn intersections where a direct left is prohibited in the intersection itself. You proceed through, then make a U-turn at an upcoming median opening. Signs guide the path. Testers still attempt a conventional Indiana left across the far lanes. Follow the J-turn signs, not the old shortcut.

    50. After a full stop at an Indiana red light or red arrow, when may you turn left?

    • A From a one-way street onto a one-way street, if the path is clear and no Indiana No Turn on Red sign is posted
    • B From any Indiana two-way street after a yield
    • C Never; Indiana allows only a right on red
    • D Only after an Indiana officer waves you through

    Correct answer: A. Indiana’s driver’s manual lets you turn left through a red light or even a red arrow when you are turning from a one-way street onto a one-way street. You still come to a full stop, check for vehicles and pedestrians in or about to enter your path, confirm there is no No Turn on Red sign, and use the correct lanes. Testers invent an Indiana ban on every left on red. The one-way-to-one-way left is the written exception.

    51. You see a rectangular rapid flashing beacon (RRFB) at an Indiana crosswalk. When does it flash, and what should you do?

    • A It flashes only after a pedestrian activates it; slow, look for people, and yield
    • B It flashes all day like an Indiana school-zone flasher
    • C Treat the Indiana flash as a green through-arrow
    • D Ignore it unless an Indiana officer is present

    Correct answer: A. Indiana’s driver’s manual lists rectangular rapid flashing beacons as a yellow flashing light used at crosswalks. They flash only when a pedestrian activates them — not all day. Slow down, look for pedestrians and bicyclists, and yield. Testers treat an Indiana RRFB like a broken yellow or a green. The pedestrian call is what turns it on.

    • A To help cyclists sit away from parked Indiana cars and to warn you that riders may occupy the travel lane
    • B To close the Indiana lane to every bicycle
    • C To mark an Indiana bus-only diamond
    • D To invite Indiana drivers to park on the symbol

    Correct answer: A. Indiana sharrows are a bike symbol with two arrows. They help cyclists position themselves away from parked cars and alert other road users to expect cyclists in the travel lane. Testers treat an Indiana sharrow like optional art. Expect a rider in the lane.

    53. Which Indiana vehicles must always stop at a railroad crossing, even when lights are not flashing?

    • A A vehicle carrying passengers for hire, a school bus, or a vehicle carrying explosives or flammable liquids, stopping 15 to 50 feet from the nearest rail
    • B Only an Indiana school bus with children visible at the door
    • C Any Indiana car within 500 feet of tracks
    • D Only Indiana trucks over 26,001 pounds

    Correct answer: A. Indiana requires vehicles carrying passengers for hire, school buses, and vehicles carrying explosives or flammable liquids to stop at railroad crossings, not closer than 15 feet or farther than 50 feet from the nearest rail, unless the tracks are abandoned and signed or removed. Testers pass a stopped Indiana hire van. Wait; those vehicles must stop every time.

    54. An Indiana roadway has a specially designated center lane marked CENTER LANE ONLY or with pavement arrows. How may you use it?

    • A Use it only to turn left, and watch for Indiana traffic coming the other way that is also entering to turn; do not use it to pass
    • B Drive the full Indiana block in the center stripe at highway speed
    • C Use it as an Indiana passing bay if the dashes fade
    • D Enter from any Indiana driveway and stay two blocks

    Correct answer: A. Indiana marks busy roads with a center lane designated solely for left-turning vehicles, often with a CENTER LANE ONLY sign or pavement arrows. Vehicles traveling the opposite way may enter that lane to turn left in front of you. Never use this type of center lane for passing. Testers camp in an Indiana center stripe. Turn, then leave.

    • B Within 18 inches only, a number copied from other Indiana neighbors
    • C Against the Indiana sidewalk if flashers are on
    • D Anywhere an Indiana travel lane stays open

    Correct answer: A. Indiana Code 9-21-16-7 requires a vehicle stopped or parked on a roadway with an adjacent curb to sit with the right-hand wheels parallel with, and within 12 inches of, the right-hand curb unless angle parking is permitted. Testers copy an 18-inch number from other states. Twelve inches is the Indiana curb gap, separate from the 15-foot hydrant extra.

    • B Fifteen feet, the Indiana hydrant number
    • C Against the Indiana bay if flashers are on
    • D Anywhere an Indiana sidewalk is clear

    • B Yes, if an Indiana placard is on the mirror
    • C Only after 9 p.m. on an Indiana lot
    • D Yes, if the Indiana hydrant is clear

    Correct answer: A. The Indiana Driver’s Manual forbids parking in the diagonally striped area next to an accessible parking space. That stripe is the wheelchair-transfer and ramp path, and the ban still applies when you hold a valid parking placard. Testers treat the Indiana hash as leftover stall space.
