Florida written test format
| Test | Questions | Pass mark | Minimum age |
|---|---|---|---|
| Car | 50 | 40 correct (10 mistakes allowed) | 15 years |
| Motorcycle | 50 | 40 correct (10 mistakes allowed) | 16 years |

Car. Class E Knowledge Exam. FLHSMV states the exam has 50 multiple-choice items and that 40 correct answers, or 80 percent, are needed to pass. The minimum age shown is for a learner's license; a Class E driver license requires age 16.
Motorcycle. Florida does not run a separate motorcycle knowledge exam. The endorsement is added after the Basic RiderCourse, and a Motorcycle Only license requires the same Class E Knowledge Exam plus the Basic RiderCourse.
CDL. CDL general knowledge test. Applicants must be at least 18, and applicants under 21 are restricted to intrastate operation. FLHSMV does not publish the item count on its CDL pages, so the values shown follow the federal 80 percent standard and are listed as unconfirmed.
