Free practice tests for driving, citizenship, CDL, food handler, and boating exams.
Private practice site. Chapbook is not a government agency and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any department of motor vehicles, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, or any state or county agency. These are practice tests written by us to help you study. They are not the official test, and passing here does not give you a licence, a permit, a card, or a certificate of any kind.
Free practice tests
Every question is written from the published rules for your exam, and every answer cites the rule it comes from, so you can check our work line by line. No signup, nothing to pay, and your answers stay in your browser.

The exams
Pick your exam and start. Each test shows your score by topic at the end, and you can retake only the questions you missed.
State permit and licence knowledge tests, built state by state from that state's rules of the road, with timed simulators graded the way each state grades.
The civics test at the naturalization interview. Two versions, set by your N-400 filing date, plus oral practice the way the interview runs.
General knowledge and the endorsement tests, written from the federal knowledge areas in 49 CFR 383.111.
The written test for a motorcycle endorsement, in the states that set their own.
Practice for food handler tests, written from state and county rules. Practice only: the card itself comes from an approved provider, and each page links to that list.
Practice for state boater education tests, plus a checker for whether your state asks you for a card at all. Practice only.
How it works
The whole thing runs in your browser. There is no account to make and nothing to install.
Choose the test and your state where it applies. The page shows the facts for your exam first: the pass mark, the fee, and what the agency does and doesn't publish.
Answer questions drawn fresh from the full bank each run. Every answer comes with the reason it is right and the source it was written from.
At the end you get your score by topic, so you can see what to study next, and one tap runs just the questions you got wrong.
Find your test
Start with the subject you keep missing.
Every explanation ends with its source, the rule or publication it was written from. Every test page carries a corrections note with the date the bank was last checked and the last fix we made. If you find a wrong answer, the report link on that test sends it to us, and a right report gets fixed in the open, with the date on the page. We don't print badges or scores we gave ourselves. The sources are the proof, and they're on the page.

The citizenship tests are live in English and Spanish now. Spanish car tests for California, Texas, New York, and Illinois are translated from our own English questions and arrive in a later wave.
From the law and the published rules, in our own words. Every explanation ends with its source, and every bank goes through two checking passes and a sample audit before it ships. If you find a wrong answer, the corrections policy sets out how we fix it in the open, with the date on the page.
