How Many Questions Are on the Idaho Permit Test?

Idaho's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV), part of the Idaho Transportation Department, handles licensing statewide — one of the few states where "DMV" is the accurate name.

A Supervised Instruction Permit is available at 14 and a half, but an applicant under 18 must first prove enrollment in, attendance in, or graduation from a recognized school program.

Idaho requires 34 of 40 correct — 85% — one of the highest passing thresholds of any state, and the test is computer-adaptive, ending the moment you hit 34 correct rather than always running all 40 questions.

That means a strong run of early answers can end your test sooner than you might expect.

dmvwrittenexam.com splits its full Idaho permit question bank into multiple 25-question practice tests, giving far more repetitions than the official test alone would.

Each question includes an explanation and a source reference, so you learn why an answer is correct instead of just memorizing a letter.
