FREE NWT Learner’s Practice Test 2025
To obtain a Class 7 learner’s licence in the Northwest Territories, you must be at least 15 years old, pass a vision screening, submit the Northwest Territories Drivers Medical Examination Report and valid government-issued identification, and pass the Class 7 Knowledge Exam. If you’re under 18, you must also provide written parental or guardian consent. If you fail the exam, you must wait one day and pay an additional fee to retest. Our Northwest Territories Learner’s (Class 7) Practice Test will help you ace the knowledge exam on your first attempt. Once you receive a Class 7 Learner’s Licence, you may drive under supervision and with restrictions. You must be accompanied by a fully licensed driver who has held the licence for at least two years, and you are only permitted to drive from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. These restrictions are part of the Northwest Territories’ Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) system, which helps new drivers gain experience gradually. The GDL’s three-stage process consists of Class 7 (Learner’s Licence), Class 5P (Probationary Licence), and the full Class 5 licence. Drivers must hold the Class 7 licence for 12 months with no passengers except an adult supervisor. They must then hold the Class 5P licence for 12 months before becoming eligible for the full license. These holding requirements apply to all new drivers, including adults. The Northwest Territories Knowledge Exam is in two parts: 20 questions on road signs and 20 questions on road rules. You must correctly answer 16 questions (80%) in each part to pass the exam. You’ll need to take the test at a Driver and Vehicle Office. Our Northwest Territories Learner’s Practice Test is based on the most recent version of the Northwest Territories Driver’s Guide. It contains 20 multiple-choice questions written in the style of the official exam. Our NWT Learner's practice tests feature the inclusion of immediate explanations for each user response. Unlike standard study guides, this feature enhances retention and speeds the learning process, ensuring you pass the official knowledge test on your first attempt.This practice test is just one part of our multi-test offering (including special additional features for our premium members!).

At Tests.ca, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate practice tests to help you prepare for your driver's knowledge exam. That's why we've developed a meticulous process to create and continually update our practice questions, ensuring they reflect the most current driving laws and regulations.
Here's an inside look at how we maintain the highest quality in our practice tests.
Content Creation and Verification Process
Alignment with Official Driving Handbooks: Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each province's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each province's official website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information.
Community Feedback Integration: We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation.
Expert Content Creation: Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy.
Rigorous Review Process: Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors.
User Feedback Mechanism: After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly.
Responsive Updates: In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the provincial government manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the government publishes them.
Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your driver's knowledge exam.
