How the app practises the Newfoundland and Labrador test
Newfoundland and Labrador · practice test in the app
Class 5 Level I written test
- Traffic laws, safe driving and road signs20 questions · 17 to pass (85%) to be confirmed
The app's Newfoundland and Labrador practice test is one part, scored against the pass mark shown on the ticket. Because the official number of questions isn't confirmed, the app uses 20 per part, scored at the published pass mark, and says the count is to be confirmed. Every result is a practice result only, never an official one.

How to study for it
Read the handbook first
The test is based on the province's Driver's Handbook. Read the chapters on signs, rules of the road and your licence before you drill questions.
Learn signs by shape and colour
Shape and colour tell you the type of sign before you can read it: an eight-sided red sign means stop, a diamond is a warning. Then learn each exact meaning.
Fix your mistakes, not just your score
For each question you miss, read why your choice was wrong. The app brings it back in your plan so it sticks.
Book when you pass consistently
Take full practice tests and book the real one when you pass them again and again, not once.
