The Virginia driver's manual is available at www.DMVnow.com.

The VA learner's permit test assesses your general knowledge with multiple choice questions.

You must correctly answer 100 percent of the general knowledge multiple choice questions to pass the VA learner's permit test.

The VA learner's permit test may be taken only once per business day.

If you fail the knowledge exam three times, you will not be able to take it a fourth time until you complete and pass the classroom component of driver education.

For FCPS students under 18, the BTW road skills test can be given as part of the driver education course taken at a public, private or commercial driving school, not at the DMV.

If you need to wear glasses or contact lenses to pass the vision screening, you must wear them when you drive.

A daylight driving only restricted license permits you to drive only during the period of time beginning a half-hour after sunrise and ending a half-hour before sunset.

At a red light, come to a complete stop at the stop line or, if there is no stop line, before entering the intersection or before reaching the crosswalk.

You may turn right while the traffic signal displays a red light after coming to a complete stop.

A yellow light or arrow are caution warnings that the light is about to change.

A flashing yellow light means slow down and proceed with caution.

At a green light, you may go if the way is clear.

If a traffic light changes from red to green while a pedestrian is in the street, the vehicles have immediate right of way.

When traffic signals are not working because of a power outage or other problem and not displaying any lights, you are required to stop.

Never drive in a lane marked with a red X signal.

The color and shape of a traffic sign communicates important information about the sign’s message

The yield line is a line of triangles extending across the roadway that may be used with a yield sign to show the point at which you must yield or stop, if necessary.

If the center lane is marked by a single broken yellow line on both sides, drivers traveling in either direction may use the center lane for passing.

If both sides of the center lane are marked by a solid yellow line and a broken yellow line, drivers traveling in either direction may use the lane for making left turns.

Drivers in a shared center lane may not travel further than 150 feet in this lane.

A shared lane marking, or sharrow, consists of a bicycle symbol with a double chevron arrow above it and is used on travel lanes too narrow for motor vehicles and bicycles to share side-by-side.

Bicycle lanes are indicated by a solid or dashed white line or green pavement markings, and a bicyclist symbol.

Drivers are permitted to drive in the bicycle lane as necessary to get where they are going.

Before turning, check your mirrors for bicyclists that may be behind you and yield to bicycles in the bicycle lane.

High Occupancy Vehicles (HOV) lanes are marked on highways by a triangle shape in the center of the lane.

During heavy traffic periods, HOV lanes are reserved for buses, van pools, carpools, other high occupancy vehicles, motorcycles, and certain clean special fuel vehicles.

If HOV lanes are separated by a barrier, they are reversible. This means that during certain times of the day, traffic flows one way.

All toll facilities in Virginia accept payment using E-ZPass toll transponders.

Slow down as you approach toll plazas. Be extra cautious as you approach, enter, and depart toll plazas. There may be other drivers changing lanes and/or toll employees crossing the lanes

If you do enter the HOV lanes by mistake, stop to pay the toll.

White curb — Stop only long enough to pick up or drop off passengers.

Yellow curb — Stop only long enough to load or unload. Stay with your car.

Red curb — Stop only long enough to load or unload. Stay with your car.

Blue curb — Parking is reserved for persons with disabilities

Broken yellow center lines mean that passing on the left is allowed in either direction when the way ahead is clear.

A broken yellow line alongside a solid yellow line means that passing is allowed from the side of the solid line, but not from the broken side of the line.

Double solid yellow lines mark the center of the road and separate traffic traveling in two different directions.

You may not cross the double solid yellow lines unless you are making a left turn or passing pedestrians, bicyclists, and riders of scooters or skateboards, when the opposite lane is clear and you can pass safely

Broken white lines separate lanes of traffic going in the same direction. You may change lanes with caution.

Double solid white lines separate lanes of traffic going in the same direction. Most often they are used to designate special use lane from conventional lanes, as when used to separate a High Occupancy Vehicle lanes from the other lanes of an expressway.

Slow moving vehicles traveling at 25 MPH or less, such as farm equipment and horse-drawn vehicles, must display these signs when using public highways. Be prepared to adjust your speed and position when you see a vehicle with this sign.
