The online test is offered in 35 languages to customers who have an internet-enabled computer or laptop with a webcam.
It is available between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding state holidays.
The test cannot be taken on a tablet or mobile device.
As a fraud-prevention measure, online test participants are required to verify their identity and agree to be monitored throughout the exam.
The test can be attempted online twice.
Customers who fail both attempts will be prompted to go to a DMV office to take the test a third time.
All questions come from the California Driver’s Handbook and are from the same pool whether taken online or at a DMV office.
InteractiveNo-Fail eLearning Course Instead of a remote version of the traditional knowledge test, customers renewing their driver’s license with a knowledge test requirement can choose to take an interactive eLearning course with seven interactive modules featuring educational videos that reinforce the rules of the road to improve driver safety, including short quizzes after each module.
If you don’t pass the quiz, simply go through the module another time and try again.
The self-paced eLearning course can be taken on a computer, laptop, tablet or mobile device and is available 24/7.
It is currently only offered in English and takes approximately 45 minutes to complete.
This is an ideal option for people who have trouble with exams or prefer an alternative learning method.
After completing the no-fail eLearning course or online exam, customers may still need to visit a DMV office to provide required identity and residency documents, take a photo, provide a thumbprint, complete a vision screening and be issued a licensing document.
However, by completing the course online, customers can greatly reduce the time to complete the remaining requirements at a DMV office.
Remember, most DMV tasks can be completed without an office visit using Search DMV
