The Northwest Territories participate in a Graduated Driver Licence Program that you may enroll in once you are at least 15 years of age. To begin, you must take a timed written knowledge test based on the 2024 NWT Basic Driver’s Manual. Your exam will be comprised of two multiple-choice tests, one with questions based on rules of the road and the second on road signs. You will have 30 minutes in each test and must correctly answer a minimum of 16 of the 20 questions to pass. In addition to the knowledge exams, you’ll also be required to take a standard vision test and provide proof of identification. You may then begin practicing driver with a Class 7 learner licence. The Class 7 licence will allow you to drive while under the supervision of a fully licensed driver with at least 24 months of experience. Novice drivers may not drive between 11 pm and 6 am, and there is a zero-tolerance policy for them driving under the influence. Once you have completed 12 months with a learner licence, you may apply to take a road test for your Class 5P probationary driver licence, which you must hold for an additional 12 months. Your written exam will cost $44, and your road test exam will be another $44. This Northwest Territories practice knowledge test can help you to study and feel prepared when it’s time for you to take the real exam.
