Sample questions from this test
What is the youngest age at which you can get an Illinois instruction permit?
- A 15, with proof of enrollment in driver education
- B 16, with a parent's signature only
- C 16, after finishing an approved driver education course
- D 14, with a parent's written consent
Show answer
A. 15, with proof of enrollment in driver education
Teens aged 15 to 17 can get an instruction permit if their driver education provider confirms they are enrolled (or will start within 30 days). This lets new drivers begin supervised practice well before they can be licensed at 16.
After you move, how soon must you notify the Illinois Secretary of State of your new address?
- A Within 30 days
- B Within 10 days
- C At your next license renewal
- D Within 90 days
Show answer
B. Within 10 days
Illinois requires you to report an address change within 10 days, at a DMV, online or by mail. Without it you may not get your renewal notice and other important mail.
In Illinois, it is illegal for an adult to drive with a blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) of:
- A .15% or more
- B .10% or more
- C .05% or more
- D .08% or more
Show answer
D. .08% or more
It is illegal to drive with a BAC of .08% or more. You can still be convicted of DUI below .08% if your driving is impaired, so the only safe choice is not to drink and drive.
It starts to rain and you turn on your windshield wipers. What else does Illinois law require?
- A Nothing else during daylight
- B Turn on your hazard flashers
- C Turn on your headlights
- D Turn on your high beams
Show answer
C. Turn on your headlights
Illinois law requires your headlights to be on whenever you use your windshield wipers. Headlights help other drivers see you in rain, snow or fog.
Under Illinois law, which drivers may use a hands-free or Bluetooth phone while driving?
- A No driver at any age
- B Drivers age 16 and older
- C Drivers age 21 and older
- D Drivers age 19 and older
Show answer
D. Drivers age 19 and older
Illinois bans hand-held phone use for all drivers. Hands-free or Bluetooth calling is allowed from age 19; drivers under 19 who hold an instruction permit or graduated license may not use a phone at all, even hands-free, except in an emergency.
