Getting your license
Are you ready to take on the Victorian drivers knowledge test? Prepping to get your learner's permit or driver licence can be stressful. Use our free practice tests to help you study and highlight any areas that may need a little work before you take your exam with your personal Challenge Bank™. Our questions are based directly from the official 2025 Victorian Road Users’ Handbook and will look almost identical to what you’ll see when you take the actual driver knowledge test. You’ll have questions on road signs and rules, fines and limits, road safety, and traffic regulations, so there can be a lot to learn! Study up using our Driver’s Handbook tab and then test your knowledge with our Practice Tests that can help you along with hints and explanations. Finally, use our Test Simulator to see how you’ll fare taking the actual VicRoads exam.
