Connecticut Driver's Manual (Rev. 3/2023, ct.gov/dmv) and the official DMV knowledge-test information page (confirming 25 questions, 20 correct required to pass = 80%, no separate sign-recognition section) — researched and verified 2026-08-19. Mock config (ruleCount: 25, rulePassPct: 0.8, unified format, signCount: 0) is directly confirmed by the DMV, not an estimate. Statute citation used: reckless driving §14-222(a). Connecticut does not publish a numeric point-value-per-violation table for the general driving public (a genuine state-specific deviation from most states); the 'points' category (labeled 'License Actions') instead models Connecticut's real conviction-count/suspension-table mechanisms: work-zone violation consequences, the age-tiered Operator Retraining Program (2+ convictions for age 24 or younger, 3+ for age 25+, plus a 3-year lookback for post-retraining violations), and the 16/17-year-old offense-count suspension table covering GDL, cell phone/texting, 20+-mph-over speeding, and reckless driving/street racing violations. Deliberately excluded gaps, flagged during research as unconfirmed rather than invented: unposted/default numeric speed limits for residential, business, rural, and highway roads; whether left turn on red is permitted under any circumstance; the adult (21+) BAC threshold number (0.08% is the customary nationwide figure but was not directly located in the manual this session); reckless driving's textual behavioral definition beyond the §14-222(a) citation; the exact dollar penalty for a move-over law violation; and the specific statute number behind the wipers-headlights rule. Re-verify periodically, as DMV handbook content, fees, and thresholds change over time.
