Utah test format

Utah written knowledge test

Utah's written knowledge test covers state traffic law and safe-driving material from the Driver Handbook. The state publishes the passing percentage rather than a fixed question total in the current handbook.

  • 80%passing score
  • 30–45 mintypical duration
  • 3attempts per paid fee

Aim above 80%

The current handbook sets the written-test passing level at 80% or better.

The fee covers up to three attempts

Utah allows no more than three written-test attempts under one fee within the stated 12-month window.

First-time license applicants have another exam

The separate online Traffic Safety and Trends Exam must be completed at 100% before the first regular Class D license.
