Comments

this wa s biggest bs i ever read get this off the net not all the answers are correct, at least some of them do contradict the contents of the driver's handbook. this was of no help! as i cudn't see the correct answers. man this is all bs some were in the test but some is all bs I don't think some of these questions are correct! These tests leave out quite of bit of what some of the questions really are in the test. Some of these questions are really in the 2010 california written test for your permit. I failed it the first time, and I would say 85% of the questions I just took from these tests were in the one I didnt pass. Id say 30/36 questions are in the test I took. Are these tests efficient? cuz sum of the answers they provide seem to be effen bs. Stupid test. wtf wakk after redoing the test and correcting the answeres to yours, mine were right the first time. what gives? I would like to see my results of the teast
