Most drivers assume they’re great behind the wheel. But we’ve all seen enough speeding, swerving and just downright questionable behavior on the road to realize some people are deluding themselves.
“Public polls show that most Americans think they are above-average drivers, which technically is impossible,” says Jonathan Adkins, executive director of the Governors Highway Safety Association. “When we overestimate our skill level, we put not only ourselves, but others on the road at risk.”
You can avoid tickets and fender benders (or worse!) by honestly assessing your driving ability. If it has been a while since you’ve dusted off your driver’s ed manual, take our quiz to see if your skills are still up to par or if it’s time for a defensive driving course to sharpen your skills.

Did you realize that after each question it said correct or incorrect? There is no final test score. :0). You weren’t driving while taking the test were you? lol. Just kidding….I hope!

I only missed one question but my results didn’t show. Technology . It works when it works and when it doesn’t work it won’t work. Anyway I agree with the comment below about challenging the three second rule. That may work in other states but definitely not here in the DMV area.
