Questions and exam format researched against West Virginia's official driver handbook and state sources. Last verified 20 August 2026.
West Virginia DMV Driver's Licensing Handbook ("Revised 07/2022" per the fetched PDF's own front matter), official PDF fetched directly from https://webapps.transportation.wv.gov/TWS/WVDOTDocumentStorageMigration/PDF/Transportation/DMV/DMVFormSearch/Drivers_Licensing_Handbook_web.pdf — linked as "Driver's Licensing Handbook" from the WV DMV's own handbooks page at https://dmv.wv.gov/driver-services/drivers/drivers-licensing-handbooks (the older transportation.wv.gov/DMV/Drivers/Pages/Handbooks.aspx path still circulates but dmv.wv.gov is the live host) — cross-checked against the WV Code on the official Legislature site, sections fetched as https://code.wvlegislature.gov/{section}/: §17C-5-3 (reckless driving), §17C-6-1 (speed limits), §17C-13-3/-4 (parking), §17C-14-9 (following/parking near a stopped emergency vehicle), §17C-14-9a (Move Over law), §17C-14-15 (handheld device ban), §17C-15-46 (child passenger safety), and §17C-15-49 (seat belts) — researched and verified 2026-08-19; citation gap closed 2026-08-20 by re-fetching the handbook PDF (7.9MB, text-extracted with pdftotext, not a scan) and loading the WV Code section pages, with §17C-5-3 confirmed to carry exactly the catchline "Reckless driving; penalties." Still no newer edition of the handbook than 07/2022; content should be re-verified periodically since DMV handbook content, fees, and thresholds change over time. Mock exam config (25 questions, 19 correct to pass = 76%, unified pool with no separate sign-recognition gate) is fully confirmed, not an estimate — the handbook's "Knowledge Examination" section states: "The knowledge examination has at least 25 questions based on the basic knowledge, traffic rules, regulations, signs, and markings found in the handbook" and "You must answer 19 out of the 25 questions correctly to pass the test." Note the handbook's own hedge "at least 25" — the 19/25 pass ratio is exact, but the total may in practice run slightly higher than 25. Known handbook inconsistency: the under-21 zero-tolerance BAC figure appears as both '0.02%' (glossary) and 'any measurable amount' (offense table); this module models it numerically as 0.02%, consistent with how other states in this app handle zero-tolerance thresholds. Deliberately excluded as unconfirmed and NOT asserted anywhere in this content: a work-zone-specific speeding fine multiplier; whether seat belt enforcement is primary or secondary; a 'wipers-on-requires-headlights-on' rule; and specific rear-facing/forward-facing/booster weight-or-age brackets beyond the codified age-8 / 4'9" thresholds (WV Code defers those specifics to federal safety standards and manufacturer instructions).
