Free West Virginia DMV Road Signs Permit Practice Test 2024

Welcome to your West Virginia Road Signs Practice Test! Driving in West Virginia is more than just rounding the curves on back country roadways; it’s an art that includes reading signs. Let us prepare you for the many challenges in store as you travel along our scenic byways and busy interstate highways.

West Virginia’s topography is a driver’s playground — and sometimes a puzzle. Our road signs are your key to decoding:

-- Steep grade warnings now line our mountain passes.

-- Runaway truck ramps sandwiched between Appalachian valleys.

-- Zones of falling rock dot our rugged terrain.

-- Snow-related road closures during winter months.

This practice test is the first step to free West Virginia for young drivers in the state’s Graduated Driver Licensing Program, but it’s more than that: It’s preparation for real Mountain State driving -- say, making hairpin turns on the Highland Scenic Highway or negotiating Harpers Ferry’s historic streets.

Did you know that West Virginia hosts some of the most beautiful byways in the entire nation?

Some of those are:

-- Coal Heritage Trail markers

-- Midland Trail National Scenic Byway signs

-- Monongahela National Forest trail marker heads.

Our state’s rich history and natural resources shape our roadways. You’ll need to recognize signs for:

-- Active coal extraction areas

-- Route for timber trucks

-- ATV crossing zones in rural areas

With our challenging terrain and weather, safety is first on the agendas of West Virginia roads. From warnings of “Bridge Freezes Before Road” to an “Fog Area”, these signs are very important during our varied seasons.

Here is something distinctly more West Virginian: the whitewater rafting route signs.
