Montgomery County Public Libraries Announces New Online Driving Test Resource for Residents


Montgomery County residents can now take free online Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) practice tests thanks to a partnership between Montgomery County Public Libraries (MCPL) and Driving-Tests.org, that allows access to the test at http://montgomerymd.driving-tests.org/maryland/.

The new service includes free tests, specifically based on Maryland State DMV materials, and accessibility tools that allow users to hear selections read aloud, make them into MP3s, translate pages into other languages, magnify text and mask sections of the screen for greater visibility.

“We are happy to be able to offer this new resource to residents who are acquiring or renewing their driver’s licenses -- teens, senior, and those who need the adaptive features of the service,” said Parker Hamilton, MCPL director.
