Online Driving Self-Assessment

DC DMV's mission is to promote public safety by ensuring the safe operation of motor vehicles. Driving is one of the most complex things that people do, and it is not always easy to be a safe user of the roadway. Being a safe driver takes a lot of skill, experience, responsibility, and judgment. You must be alert, keep your mind on driving, obey the laws and be courteous to other motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians.

DC DMV’s online driving self-assessment is a tool you can use to determine your ability to continue to safely operate a motor vehicle. This assessment will help you determine whether you need to improve any of your driving skills to stay safe.
