Florida Authorized
Permit Test Online

Our online Florida Permit Test is the official State of Florida Learner's Permit Test.

Highway Traffic School is an approved and licensed third party administrator. We are listed on the official State of Florida website.

If you are under 18, Florida requires you to get a Learner's License. You must have your Learner's License for one year or until age 18 before you can get your unrestricted driver's license. Also, you cannot get any tickets while having your Learner's License.

Check out our Florida License Guide for more detailed information.

Yes, if you have already taken the TLSAE (Drug & Alcohol) course somewhere else, you can choose to register for only the Class E Written Knowledge Exam (the official written test for your permit).

However, the TLSAE course and the Class E Knowledge Exam are required to get your Learner's License.

If either of the following applies to you, you must take the Permit Exam in person at a local Florida service center, with a driver's license exam provider, or through an authorized third party administrator. You will not be able to register or start a test if you:

• Are 18 years old or older. In this case, you do not qualify to take the Florida permit exam online. Only drivers who are under the age of 18 may take the written exam online per Florida law.
• Have taken the exam three times online and have not been able to pass successfully. After the third attempt, you must take the written test in person.
• Have already passed the exam.

Yes, you need to study the Florida Driver's Handbook. To pass the official Florida written exam, you must read and understand the Florida Driver's License Handbook. All of the answers to the test questions are in that publication. Our Drug & Alcohol Course (TLSAE) does not cover all the information you need to pass the written test, but is a good start.

We will provide a link to the newest Florida Driver's Handbook, 100 FREE practice questions, and road sign flashcards to help you prepare for the exam.

You can take our official State of Florida written test as long as you are 14 years and 6 months of age. Note: Although you may be able to take the written test in preparation to apply for your Learner's Permit as young as 14 years and 6 months, you will not be able to apply for a Learner's Permit until you are 15.

If you are 18 or older and have never obtained a driver's license, you must take the written permit test at a Florida service center location, with a driver's license exam provider, or an authorized third party administrator. Unfortunately, applicants over 18 do not qualify for the online Class E Knowledge Exam per Florida rules.

You will not need additional software to take the Class E Knowledge Exam online. However, to prevent and deter fraud and cheating, you will need to follow these instructions to ensure a seamless and successful experience:

• Close all open programs, browser windows, and browser tabs except for the one running the exam.
• Use the latest up-to-date version of Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browser only.
• Do not take the exam on a smartphone or tablet.
• You must use internet service located in the USA, and the Florida testing system will block VPN connections.
• Turn off all computer popups and notifications.
• Place this browser in fullscreen mode by using the browser's settings menu or pressing F11 on Windows PC or ⌘ Command + Control + f on Mac. After completing the exam, you can repeat this step to exit fullscreen mode.
• Remain on the exam browser window/tab at all times when taking the test.

Any of the following will alert the testing system of a disruption and result in an immediate failure of the exam:

• Moving away from the exam screen for any reason.
• Interruptions, such as virus scans, incoming phone calls, text messages, or notifications or popups of any kind received by the computer.
• Remaining idle on a question for 2 or more minutes with no activity.

The Florida First-Time Driver's Written Exam is a 50-question multiple-choice exam. You must score an 80% or higher to pass. You cannot get more than ten questions wrong to get a passing score. Per Florida law, you will be allowed 60 minutes (1 hour) to complete the written exam online. Once the exam has been started, you will not be allowed to pause or stop the exam. Any questions not answered after the 60 minutes have expired will be marked as incorrect.

If you cannot pass the Permit Test on the first try, you will have two more opportunities to take the test. If you cannot pass the exam after your 3rd attempt, you must take the Permit Test in person at a Florida service center location, with a driver's license exam provider, or an authorized third party administrator.

Note: Our school is unique in allowing you to take the exam up to 3 times online without paying additional fees, saving you $50 or more! Most schools require you to pay separate and extra fees for each exam attempt.

Once you pass your Learner's Permit Test, you must go to a Florida driver's license office to get your Learner's License or driver's license. Take the following items with you:

• Proof of Identification — such as your birth certificate or United States Passport. If you do not have your original birth certificate (a copy is unacceptable), you may bring a certified copy of your birth certificate issued by the state where you were born.
• Proof of Social Security Number — bring your original social security card or W-2 showing your social security number.
• Proof of Residential Address — such as your home utility bill, cable bill, home telephone bill, etc.
• Parent/Guardian Online Test Proctoring Form — Since you completed the Class E Knowledge test online, this form must be completed and signed in the presence of a driver's license examiner or notarized if the parent or guardian will not be present.
• Parental Consent Form — If you are under 18 and unmarried, one parent or legal guardian must sign your license application. Step-parents may not sign unless they have legally adopted you. This form must be completed and signed in the presence of a driver's license examiner or notarized if the parent or guardian will not be present.

Unfortunately, we cannot make changes to your certificate or exam record. Registering with the correct information is essential. Double-check that your birthday, identification number (Florida identification card number, social security number, alien number, or I-94 admissions number), and legal name are entered and spelled correctly. Your legal name must exactly match the documents you use to prove your identity when you pick up your driving permit.

Before you start the permit exam, you will be prompted to double-check your personal information. This will be the last opportunity to update your personal information and verify it is correct before we send it to the State of Florida. If the information you provided is inaccurate, the FLHSMV requires you to retake the exam in person with the correct information. We are not able to update your exam record.
