South Carolina permit practice test 6
Twenty of the hardest questions: defensive driving course rules, skills test retests, moving to South Carolina, expired licenses, seat belts and booster seats, the penny tread test, pavement drop-offs, skids, flares, traffic stops and tickets, meeting trucks, icy bridges, towing a trailer, secondary road markers, the railroad crossbuck and work zone signs. Every answer comes from the South Carolina Driver's License Manual or the SCDMV's own pages, and road sign questions are mixed in, as on the real test. The SCDMV does not publish how many questions its knowledge test has or the score needed to pass, so 20 questions is our own practice size and we count 16 correct (80 percent) as a pass. There is no time limit.
Exam mode: timed, answers at the end, like the real test. Practice mode: untimed, the answer and explanation after each question.
