Indiana doesn't publish its knowledge-test length and pass score on an official page we could confirm, so we don't state numbers here. The questions in this quiz are written in the style of Indiana's knowledge test, and Indiana's official driver handbook (linked below) is the source to study from.
Pick an answer on each question to see whether you got it right, with an explanation.
This is a short sample — DriveDrill has 200+ Indiana questions
and full-length mock exams in the app.
Q1. A motorcycle is entitled to:
A The shoulder only
B The left lane only
C Half a lane so a car can share it
D The full width of a traffic lane
Never share a lane with a motorcycle. Riders move within the lane to avoid road hazards and to stay visible.
Q2. In Indiana, the maximum speed limit on rural interstate highways is:
A 60 mph
B 75 mph
C 70 mph
D 65 mph
That is the highest limit the state allows on a rural interstate. The posted sign always governs, and a lower speed can still be required by conditions.
Q3. An unsecured load in the back of a pickup truck is:
A Illegal and dangerous to traffic behind you
B Fine if it is under the tailgate line
C Only a problem on highways
D Fine on local roads
You are responsible for anything that falls off your vehicle. Tie loads down and cover loose material.
Q4. In Indiana, the move-over law requires you to change lanes, or slow down, when passing:
A Only vehicles stopped inside a marked work zone
B Any stopped vehicle showing hazard lights or other warning signals
C Only stopped police, fire and ambulance vehicles
D Stopped emergency vehicles and certain work or service vehicles showing warning lights, but not ordinary cars with hazard lights on
Move to a lane that is not next to the stopped vehicle when you safely can. When you cannot, slow down. People working at the roadside are struck every year by drivers who did neither.
Q5. You must:
A Carry a photocopy of your license
B Show your license only after a crash
C Keep your license at home for safekeeping
D Carry your driver license whenever you drive and show it when asked
Driving without carrying the license is a separate violation in most states, even if you are licensed.
Q6. In Indiana, once issued, a learner's permit remains valid for:
A One year from the date of issuance
B Two years from the date of issuance
C 90 days from the date of issuance
D Until the holder turns 18
Indiana learner's permits are valid for two years from the date they are issued.
Q7. Hazard lights should generally be used:
A While passing another vehicle
B When your vehicle is stopped or moving unusually slowly and is a hazard
C Any time you are in a hurry
D Whenever it rains
In most states hazard lights while driving normally are prohibited because they hide your turn signals.
Q8. The best response to feeling drowsy while driving is to:
A Drink coffee and continue for another hour
B Open a window and keep going
C Stop somewhere safe and rest
D Turn the radio up
Drowsy driving impairs you much like alcohol, and micro-sleeps happen without warning. Only sleep fixes it.
Q9. Using cruise control on a wet road is discouraged because:
A It does not work below 40 mph
B It disables the anti-lock brakes
C It can keep power applied if the tires lose grip
D It uses more fuel in rain
If a tire starts to hydroplane, cruise control may hold or add throttle. Drive with your own foot when the road is wet.
Q10. In Indiana, a driver's license issued to someone younger than 75 years old is valid for:
A Four years
B Ten years
C Six years
D Eight years
Indiana driver's licenses are valid for six years for holders younger than 75; the renewal period shortens for older drivers.
