Take a free, untimed Wisconsin DMV practice test in the real exam format: 65 questions, 40 correct to pass. Fresh random questions every attempt.
The Wisconsin exam is graded in two parts: 15 road-sign questions, of which you must answer 12 of 15 correctly, and 50 rules-of-the-road questions, of which you need 40 (80%). Both parts must be passed.
Answer: The vehicle on the right
If two vehicles arrive simultaneously at a 4-way stop, the vehicle on the right goes first; otherwise, whoever arrived first goes first.
Right-of-Way
Answer: After stopping, if it is safe and not otherwise prohibited
A steady red light allows a right turn after a full stop, if safe and not otherwise prohibited by signage.
Signals
Answer: 12 points
Accumulating 12 or more demerit points within any 12-month period can lead to suspension or revocation.
Demerit Points
Answer: Within 12 inches
Wisconsin requires parking within 12 inches of the curb.
Parking Rules
Answer: Under 1 year old OR under 20 pounds, whichever is later, in the back seat when available
Rear-facing is required for a child under 1 year old or under 20 pounds — the seat belongs in the back seat when the vehicle has one.
Child Passenger Safety
Answer: Traffic on the terminating (dead-end) road must yield to the through road
At an uncontrolled T-intersection, traffic on the road that ends (the terminating leg) must yield to traffic on the continuous through road.
Right-of-Way
Answer: Only when turning from a one-way street onto another one-way street
A left turn on red is allowed only when moving from a one-way street onto another one-way street, after stopping.
Signals
Answer: Points are doubled
Points double for probationary, instruction-permit, or no-license drivers — and double again on a second or later conviction.

Questions and exam format researched against Wisconsin's official driver handbook and state sources. Last verified 18 August 2026.
Wisconsin Motorists' Handbook (BDS126, 2026 ed., wisconsindot.gov) and Wisconsin Statutes (docs.legis.wisconsin.gov), including Wis. Stat. 346.075 (bicyclist passing distance), 346.90 (following emergency vehicles), and 347.48 (child passenger safety) — researched and verified 2026-08-18. Exam format is a split, BOTH sub-sections officially confirmed by WisDOT: a 15-question Highway Signs Test requiring 12 correct (80%), plus a separate 50-question Knowledge Test requiring 40 correct (80%, ~45 minutes); max 5 attempts per test within a 1-year period. Demerit-point values for 'Following Too Closely,' 'Failure to Yield Right of Way,' and 'Failure to Fasten Seat Belt' could not be reliably extracted from the source PDF's garbled two-column table layout and were deliberately excluded from `rules` rather than guessed — the `points` category instead covers only well-sourced figures (12-point suspension threshold, probationary/permit point-doubling, speeding brackets, OWI/PAC/reckless-driving values, illegal-passing and following-too-close-to-an-emergency-vehicle values, Habitual Traffic Offender thresholds, and the 3-point safety-course reduction). Other unconfirmed figures intentionally omitted: exact work-zone/handheld-phone fine dollar amounts, precise first-offense OWI license revocation length (only the 6-month PAC-test administrative suspension and 1-year implied-consent-refusal minimum are confirmed), a numeric stopping-distance chart (WI publishes a 4-second following rule instead), a statewide curb-color code beyond the handbook's generic yellow-means-no-parking note, and pedestrian hybrid-beacon signal sequence details. Re-verify periodically, as DMV/DOT handbooks, fees, and thresholds change over time.
