About the Written Test
Oregon's written knowledge test is administered by the Department of Transportation's Driver and Motor Vehicle Services division and is required for anyone applying for an instruction permit. The test consists of 35 multiple-choice questions, and you need at least 28 correct answers (80%) to pass — making it one of the longer tests with a high passing threshold.
Where and How to Take It
Oregon offers both in-person and online testing. In-person tests are administered on touchscreen computers at any Oregon DMV office — walk-ins are accepted, though appointments are recommended. Online testing is available through the Oregon DMV website in 8 languages. The online option has made Oregon one of the most accessible states for knowledge testing.
What to Bring
For in-person testing, bring proof of identity (birth certificate or passport), your Social Security card, and proof of Oregon residency and legal presence. Under-18 applicants need parental consent. The permit application fee is $34.50, plus a $7 test fee — totaling $41.50 for your first visit.
Test Day
The 35-question test covers road signs and signals, Oregon traffic laws, following distances, turn signals and headlights, speed limits, and driving in bad weather. Oregon's test has a notably large question pool. There is no formal time limit, and the touchscreen format makes navigation straightforward.
If You Don't Pass
If you score below 80%, you can retake the test the same day — Oregon doesn't require a waiting period. Each retake attempt costs $7. There's no limit on the number of attempts.
Oregon-Specific Details
Oregon uses the term \"DUII\" (Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants) rather than \"DUI\" — expect questions using this terminology. The state also has unique laws including mandatory headlight use when windshield wipers are on, and specific rules about driving in roundabouts (traffic circles). Oregon is a no-sales-tax state, so DMV fees are what you see.
Instruction Permit vs. Full License
After passing the written test, you receive an instruction permit. Under-18 applicants must hold it for at least 6 months, complete driver education or 100 hours of supervised driving (10 at night), and pass a road test. Oregon's graduated licensing program includes restrictions on passengers and nighttime driving for provisional license holders.
