Montana 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 Montana's knowledge test, and Montana'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+ Montana questions
and full-length mock exams in the app.
Q1. Another driver is behaving aggressively toward you. You should:
A Brake suddenly to teach them a lessonB Match their behaviour so they back offC Follow them to get their plateD Avoid eye contact, give them room, and do not respond
Do not engage. Let them go, change your route if they follow, and drive to a police station rather than home.
Q2. Switching on your hazard lights while parked illegally:
A Allows parking in a bus stopB Does not make the parking legalC Makes a short stop legalD Allows double parking
Hazard lights warn other drivers; they do not create a parking permit.
Q3. Overdriving your headlights means:
A Driving so fast you cannot stop within the distance you can seeB Leaving your headlights on in daylightC Driving with one headlight outD Using high beams in traffic
Low beams show about 350 feet ahead. At highway speed you can outrun that, which is why night speeds should be lower.
Q4. In Montana, the law requires a car seat or booster seat until:
A The child turns 4B The child turns 9, or outgrows the booster seatC The child turns 12D The child turns 16
State law is a minimum. Safety experts recommend a booster until the adult belt fits properly: lap belt low across the hips and shoulder belt across the chest, not the neck.
Q5. In Montana, you may not park within what distance of a railroad crossing?
A 10 feetB 25 feetC 100 feetD 50 feet
Montana prohibits parking within 50 feet of a railroad crossing.
Q6. In Montana, when the posted speed limit is under 55 mph, a driver in a funeral procession may not drive more than how far below that posted speed limit?
A 5 miles per hourB 15 miles per hourC 10 miles per hourD 20 miles per hour
Montana limits funeral procession drivers to no more than 5 mph below the posted speed limit on roads posted under 55 mph.
Q7. Liability insurance pays for:
A Your medical bills onlyB Your vehicle being stolenC Repairs to your own vehicleD Injury and damage you cause to other people
Liability is the coverage states require. Collision and comprehensive, which cover your own vehicle, are optional.
Q8. Hazard lights should generally be used:
A While passing another vehicleB When your vehicle is stopped or moving unusually slowly and is a hazardC Any time you are in a hurryD Whenever it rains
In most states hazard lights while driving normally are prohibited because they hide your turn signals.
Q9. Texting while driving is dangerous mainly because:
A It slows your vehicle downB It is only a problem at nightC It drains the phone batteryD It takes your eyes, hands and attention off driving at the same time
Five seconds looking at a phone at 55 mph covers the length of a football field blind. Every state restricts phone use for new drivers, and most restrict it for everyone.
Q10. In Montana, a driver under 21 is over the limit with:
A any detectable amount of alcoholB 0.05% or higherC 0.01% or higherD 0.02% or higher
The under-21 threshold is far below the 0.08% adult limit, so roughly one drink can reach it. The licence consequence is administrative and starts before any court date.
