MASSACHUSETTS STUDY GUIDE

How to prepare for the Massachusetts learner’s permit test

The RMV exam checks rules of the road, impaired-driving consequences, the Junior Operator Law, and how to share the road with people who are visually impaired, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Read the current Class D manual, then use this practice set to identify topics that need another review.

Know the published test format

The Class D exam has 25 questions and a 25-minute limit. You need 18 correct answers. This site’s questions are independently written study material, not actual or confidential exam items.

Understand learner’s permit supervision

A permit holder must drive with a qualified licensed operator who is at least 21, has at least one year of driving experience, and sits in the seat beside the driver. A permit is available from age 16.

Review teen driver requirements

For applicants under 18, Massachusetts requires an approved driver education program with 30 classroom hours, 12 hours behind the wheel, and 6 observation hours. Applicants generally need six consecutive months with a permit and 40 additional supervised hours; the RMV accepts 30 after an approved skills development program.

Study JOL restrictions

JOL holders under 18 face a nighttime restriction from 12:30 a.m. to 5 a.m., a passenger restriction during their first six months, and a ban on electronic device use while driving, including hands-free use. Check the current RMV guidance for exceptions and full details.
