Idaho · 20-question sample · Mark one correct answer for each question.

  1. 1. C — 14 years and six months.

    The driver-training permit is available beginning at 14 1/2. It is not an unrestricted license; during training it authorizes driving with the instructor.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 15 — Driver Training Permits · page 15

  2. 2. A — An adult at least 18 who holds a valid driver license.

    The ordinary age-17-and-older instruction permit requires an accompanying licensed adult age 18 or older. The under-17 supervised instruction program has a different supervisor requirement.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 16 — Class D Instruction Permits · page 16

  3. 3. D — One year.

    The July 2026 handbook specifies one year. The learner must continue to meet the supervision requirement; permit validity is not permission for solo driving.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 16 — Class D Instruction Permits · page 16

  4. 4. B — A validly licensed driver at least 21, with no other front-seat passenger.

    The under-17 supervised instruction program requires a licensed supervisor age 21 or older in the front seat beside the driver. No other passenger may occupy the front seat.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 19 — Graduated Driver's License Program — supervision · page 19

  5. 5. B — The minimum six-month violation-free period has not elapsed.

    The program requires both at least six violation-free months and at least 50 supervised hours, including ten at night. Finishing the hours early does not shorten the period.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 19 — Graduated Driver's License Program — period and hours · page 19

  6. 6. D — The permit is canceled; after reapplying, a new minimum six-month period begins.

    A conviction during supervised instruction causes permit cancellation and restarts the minimum six-month period when a new permit is issued.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 19 — Graduated Driver's License Program — violation · page 19

  7. 7. A — A validly licensed driver at least 21 must sit in the front seat beside the driver.

    A licensed driver under 16 is restricted to daylight travel unless accompanied by the qualified licensed adult beside them. A short trip does not remove the restriction.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 16 — Restriction When Under 16 · page 16

  8. 8. C — No more than one.

    The limit is one passenger under 17, except for passengers related to the driver by blood, adoption or marriage. It applies during the first six months of licensing while under 17.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 16 — Restriction When Under 17 · page 16

  9. 9. C — Consent from a parent or legal guardian serving as the liability signer.

    An applicant under 18 needs the required liability signer. Driver training does not replace that consent.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 26 — Liability Signer · page 26

  10. 10. A — Acceptable proof of school enrollment and attendance, or qualifying completion.

    Idaho requires acceptable verification of enrollment and attendance or graduation/equivalent completion for applicants under 18.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 26 — Verification of School Compliance · page 26

  11. 11. D — Within 30 days.

    Notify ITD within 30 days. Updating the record and ordering a replacement card displaying the new address are separate actions.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 29 — Address Change · page 29

  12. 12. B — No; wear the required glasses or contacts whenever driving.

    The lens restriction applies whenever you operate a motor vehicle. Distance, daylight and familiarity do not cancel it.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 32 — Medical/Visual Screening · page 32

  13. 13. B — The test must be rescheduled with a roadworthy vehicle or after repairs.

    A test vehicle must meet safety standards. Current paperwork is not a substitute for a safe, properly equipped vehicle.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 36 — Skills Test Examiner Vehicle Inspection · page 36

  14. 14. D — A current paper or digital proof-of-insurance copy.

    The handbook accepts current paper or digital proof of insurance and expressly says an SR-22 is not valid proof for this test requirement.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 35 — Required Documents — Vehicle Insurance · page 35

  15. 15. A — No; results must be recorded and a driver license issued before licensed privileges begin.

    Passing the test does not itself issue a license. Keep the results sealed and complete the licensing process; any existing permit restrictions still matter.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 37 — Results · page 37

  16. 16. C — $25,000 / $50,000 / $15,000.

    The Insurance Department states these minimum bodily-injury and property-damage limits. Higher coverage may be purchased; liability coverage addresses harm to others for which you are responsible.

    Source: Idaho Department of Insurance, Required Auto Coverage — bodily injury and property damage liability minimums; read September 29, 2026

  17. 17. C — Renew the vehicle registration on schedule.

    The sticker change does not end vehicle registration. Keep registration current even though no new annual DMV sticker is issued.

    Source: ITD, June 30, 2026 — July 1 registration sticker change; registration still required

  18. 18. A — Report the crash to police.

    The handbook requires a police report for injury crashes or property damage exceeding $1,500. Fault or whether a car can still be driven does not remove the duty.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 121 — Crashes and the Law — reporting · page 121

  19. 19. D — Move it to a shoulder, median or emergency lane.

    Idaho's Quick Clearance rule requires safely moving vehicles after a crash without death or injury on an interstate or major divided highway. Clearing the lane does not excuse other crash duties.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 121 — Crashes and the Law — Quick Clearance · page 121

  20. 20. B — Call for emergency help and avoid moving the injured person unnecessarily.

    Provide help you can safely give and summon police and medical assistance. Do not move an injured person without appropriate training unless an immediate danger, such as fire, requires it.

    Source: Idaho Driver's Handbook, July 2026; printed/PDF p. 121 — Crashes and the Law — injured people · page 121
