Start here: Read the manual, study topics, then take fresh mock exams. Use the explanations to understand the rule rather than memorize an answer letter. Aim for consistent results above the 80% minimum.

Primary source: the supplied 2026 NJ Driver Manual (243 PDF pages). References distinguish the printed page number from the PDF page number. The hosted app links to MVC's online PDF, which requires internet access and may change in future revisions. For offline page links, download the manual as drivermanual.pdf beside this HTML file and open index.html locally.

Official format: NJ MVC's sample knowledge test confirms 50 questions and 40 correct (80%) to pass. The manual, printed pp. 30-31, also describes an organ-donation survey question; that unscored survey is not simulated. This app uses four choices, shuffles questions and choices, balances coverage across its 13 topics, and lets you finish all 50. These are practice design choices, not a claim about MVC screen layout, topic weights, timing, or early stopping.

Scope: basic automobile/Class D preparation: chapters 1-9 and the chapter 11 safety/sign appendix. Motorcycle-only licensing and riding techniques (chapter 10), CDL-specific exams, and the location directory are excluded. No app can promise every possible live exam question; this is an original study bank, not leaked or official test questions.

Verified public samples: MVC publishes 19 numbered sample questions and an official answer key. These are public study samples, not a verified current live-exam bank. The sample's older "two-second" following-distance wording differs from the supplied 2026 manual; this app follows the manual's three-seconds-plus guidance in good conditions and four or more seconds in bad weather.

Reddit follow-up: in a July 6, 2026 discussion, a self-described driver's-ed teacher recommended Don-Tre, Primo and Drivability practice tests. The original poster reported passing on July 17 and said those sites helped. August 26 and September 17 discussions emphasized reading the manual. These are anecdotes, not independently verified credentials, results or actual exam questions. No Reddit claim is used as an answer source.

Other research: MVC knowledge-test guidance directs applicants to the manual. MVC's first-license guidance confirms the under-21 supervised-driving requirement of 50 hours, including 10 in darkness. Driving-Tests.org was consulted for practice-format context, not copied for questions or used as legal authority. Its September 26, 2026 verification label is a publisher claim, not MVC certification.

Source limitations: the manual is a study guide, not legal advice; statutes and regulations control. Some passages and penalty tables contain inconsistencies. Questions avoid those conflicting specifics rather than silently invent a resolution. Check MVC for current procedures and legal changes. Research date: September 27, 2026.

Run locally: double-click index.html. No server, network connection, or installation is required to practice. Progress belongs to this browser/file location; private browsing or clearing browser data can erase it. Keep only one practice tab open to avoid competing saves. Your last 20 session scores are retained. If saving is unavailable, an explicit warning appears and you can still practice.

Development: run npm install, npx playwright install chromium, then npm test. The bank uses pipe-separated rows inside question-data: topic, PDF page, prompt, correct answer, three alternatives, explanation, optional illustration key. Add new rows at the end: row order determines saved question IDs. Changes to existing IDs or answer text require a storage-version migration. Explanations and answer choices are original paraphrases; recheck their cited manual pages when editing.
