OPEN ROAD READY CA process guide Sign in
California

Pass the California permit test, without the guesswork.

Practise in the real DMV format — 36 questions, 6 errors allowed — with every answer explained and cited to the California Driver's Handbook and Vehicle Code.

1,300+ reviewed questions · no card needed to start

Every answer shows its source

Test-prep apps are full of confidently wrong answers. Ours cite the handbook section and, where one exists, the Vehicle Code statute — so you can check us. Questions that cannot be cited do not get published; they are held or retired.

"A rolling stop is scored on the real test." — and underneath it, the section of the DMV's own criteria that says so.

What you get

Built for families

One plan covers up to six people, and the family board puts everyone's readiness on one screen — which is usually what the person paying actually wants to see. Immigrant families arrive needing several licences at once; that is who this was built for first.

Pricing

Free
Genuinely useful practice, not a teaser. Three sessions a day.
$10/month
Solo. Everything, one person.
$30/month
Family. Up to six people on one board.

Cancel when you pass. Tell us you passed and we cancel the renewal for you, keeping your access to the end of the period you paid for. A test-prep product that quietly bills you after you've passed has stopped being on your side.
