This Louisiana OMV practice test has just been updated for June 2024 and covers 40 of the most essential road signs and rules questions directly from the official 2024 LA Driver Handbook.
To begin driving in Louisiana, you’ll first need to pass a written knowledge test of 40 questions based on Louisiana’s rules of the road, road signs, and driver’s license regulations, all of which are covered in the 2024 Louisiana Drivers Guide. The test requires that you correctly answer at least 32 of the 40 questions to pass, achieving a passing ratio of 80% or better. If you are between the ages of 15 and 17, you’ll need to take a driver’s education course that includes eight hours of behind-the-wheel instruction, or if you’re 18 or older, you may choose to take a six-hour pre-licensing course with an additional eight hours of instruction while behind the wheel. When you show up to take your test at your local OMV, you’ll need to provide a certificate from the driving course you’ve taken, a birth certificate, identification, your social security number, proof of current school attendance if you are under age 18, and the $32.25 permit or license fee. You’ll also be required to pass a standard eye exam. Use this OMV practice test to help prepare you for the Louisiana written knowledge test, to help you pass on your first try, and get you on your way to becoming a licensed driver.

At Driving-Tests.org, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate practice tests to help you prepare for your DMV exam. That's why we've developed a meticulous process to create and continually update our practice questions, ensuring they reflect the most current driving laws and regulations.
Here's an inside look at how we maintain the highest quality in our practice tests.
Content Creation and Verification Process
- Alignment with Official Manuals:
Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each state's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each state DMV's website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information. - Community Feedback Integration:
We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation. - Expert Content Creation:
Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy. - Rigorous Review Process:
Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors. - User Feedback Mechanism:
After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly. - Responsive Updates:
In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the DMV manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the DMV publishes them.
Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your DMV exam.
