Louisiana writes its own knowledge test from its own handbook, the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide, administered under Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV). The numbers that decide your test day — how the test is scored, how old you must be, and what the permit costs — are Louisiana’s numbers, not national ones. This page’s practice set is Louisiana-only: 298 original questions built from the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide, organized by the handbook’s own sections, with an explanation on every question, so you can learn Louisiana’s rules the way Louisiana will test them.
What’s included
Louisiana only, from Louisiana’s handbook. This set was built only from the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide — not from a national bank and not from another state’s rules. Speed limits, distances, penalties, and permit steps differ by state, so every question here is tied to what Louisiana publishes.
298 practice questions, with an explanation on every question. The full Louisiana set is 298 questions, and each one carries an explanation, so a wrong answer tells you what the handbook actually says and where to re-read it.
Organized by the handbook’s own sections. The set follows the structure of the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide (see the map below), so you can study section by section and then mix sections the way the real test does.
Free, with no price attached. This is a free program in PassProfessor’s Free Practice hub. There is no purchase price for this practice test. Joining the notify list is only about being told when the program opens.
The real test at a glance
Current as of October 2026, from the official Louisiana sources named in this package’s internal record. Your state’s handbook and agency are the authority — if anything here differs from them, they are correct.

| First step | Stage 1 — Class E Learner’s Permit (a Temporary Instruction Permit, or TIP, is used while enrolled in driver education) |
| Test | Knowledge test — multiple-choice questions taken from the Class D & E Driver’s Guide, given on a computer in most offices |
| Passing standard | At least 80% accuracy |
| Fee | Class E fee listed in the guide: $32.25 total ($20.25 fee + $12.00 handling fee + $0–$6 service fee) |

- Driver education is required for the teen permit. Stage 1 requires 30 hours of classroom instruction and eight hours of behind-the-wheel instruction, plus the vision exam and the knowledge exam at 80% accuracy or better.
- The permit stage has a floor and a birthday. A learner’s permit must be held for a minimum of 180 days, and the holder cannot advance to the intermediate stage until the 16th birthday.
- Supervised driving is logged for the next stage. To upgrade to an intermediate license at 16, a parent or legal guardian must attest to at least 50 hours of behind-the-wheel experience, at least 15 of them at night.
- The guide tells you how to study it. Its own tips for the written test include reading the manual at least three times and memorizing the numeric information — lengths, distances, and measurements — which is exactly where practice questions help.

How to use it
- Join the notify list today. When the program opens, start with the Louisiana set — not a neighboring state’s, and not a generic national set. State selection is the whole point of this program.
- Get the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide first. Download or pick up the current edition from Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV). It is the document your test is built from.
- Practice topic by topic. Work through the handbook’s sections in order. When a practice question surprises you, find that rule in the handbook and read the surrounding section.
- Then practice mixed. Once the sections feel familiar on their own, take mixed sets that pull from across the handbook, the way the real knowledge test does. A rule you only recognize inside its own chapter is not yet learned.
- Confirm your test-day facts from the state, not from practice sites. Before you go, check Louisiana’s official pages for the current test format, required documents, and fees. Those facts change, and the state agency is the only authority for them.

Are these the actual Louisiana test questions?
No. Every PassProfessor practice question is original, written from the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide. Louisiana does not publish its live test questions, and we never use actual test items or another provider’s bank. Practice works because it teaches the handbook, not because it copies the test.
Is this practice really free?
Yes. The Louisiana Driver Permit Practice Test is a free program in PassProfessor’s Free Practice hub. There is no price for the practice test itself. The notify form on this page only signs you up to be emailed when the program opens; it is not a purchase.
How many practice questions are in the Louisiana set?
298 questions, built only from the Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide, and every question carries an explanation of the answer.
What should I study besides practice questions?
The Louisiana Class D & E Driver’s Guide, cover to cover. Louisiana’s knowledge test is built from that handbook, so use practice to find the sections you have not actually learned, then go back to those sections in the handbook itself.

The practice bank covering all 50 states is complete, and enrollment for this program opens as the catalog expands. Join the notify list on this page and we will email you when it opens. It will be free when it opens.
