For Foreign Residents | 35 Practice Questions for the Provisional and Full License Written Exams | 70% Is a Fail [2026 Edition]

35 practice questions for the provisional license (karimen) and full license (honmen) written exams, with answers and explanations. First, one thing to know: the pass line is 90%. You can miss only 5 of 50 questions on the provisional license exam and only 10 points on the full license exam. So "I got 70% right" means you fail. Even with these 35 questions, 25 correct is 71.4%, which would fail the real exam. The reason people fail is not their Japanese. When we checked 962 questions in Drivey's provisional license course, 20 questions containing "always" had the answer ×, and 24 of 36 questions containing condition words such as "in principle" had the answer ○. The causes of failing fall into 4 patterns: absolute words, condition words, swapped numbers, and the scope of legal terms. However, 7 of the 35 questions cannot be solved by pattern; they test knowledge itself. Solve 15 provisional and 20 full license questions and find which pattern makes you lose points.
