The permit exam has a total of 50 multiple-choice questions. To pass the exam, you must score at least 80 percent, which is 40 out of 50 questions correct. The topics you need to study and understand are covered in the Official Florida Driver License Handbook.

The practice test was free for me. I took it (and passed) without providing any credit card or other payment information.

The basic rules are pretty simple. The "what does Florida call this" questions were not so easy.

Haven't seen you in the police logs so you obviously paid attention!

Being a UK citizen, we are severely hit by the insurance market if we insure on our UK licence.
So last year at the age of 73, I took the full test - so did my wife.
We did about 20-30 of the practice tests - all free on line, as well as reading the Florida Drivers Handbook several times. We now know how to use roundabouts properly in this state. Totally different to the UK and in my opinion not totally logical - hence the numerous threads here.
The actual “theory” test was a bit easier than the ones on line but I still got one wrong!!
The actual road test was to us bizarre. All done in a car park with the examiner communicating from outside of the vehicle.
Was it worth it?
Well Progressive wanted $5900 on our renewal just recently. (Only company willing to take us on)
We got The Villages Insurance on the case and now insured for $2300 for the year.
So yes well worth the effort to us.
The tests are worth doing as a refresher.

The UK roundabouts always makes me think of Chevy Chase in European Vacation. After he hits a cyclist several times trying to exit one....and saying to his kids repeatedly in the process ‘Hey kids, there’s Big Ben....Hey kids, there’s Big Ben’!

I couldn't take the test; I'm stuck going round and round in a RB with my left blinker on, in the outer lane, while coming to a dead stop for anyone entering and driving side by side with the rest

Well this site was. Cause it from Florida DMV. I don’t know what site you got on but if any free site asked for cc information don’t do it. I brought some cheap security mini camera and to activate it they wanted my CC information which they all ready had when I brought it. So that was bust for me. The mini camera that’s putting ring door bell out business so they claims going in trash.
