Connecticut Permit Test Requirements

You'll need to answer at least 20 of the 25 questions presented on the learners permit exam correctly in order to qualify for a Connecticut drivers permit. If you fail to do so, you can take another test after seven days. While at the DMV office, you must also pass a vision test.

Taking a practice permit test is a smart way to prepare for your official permit test, as doing so enhances the probability you'll pass on the initial attempt.

Auto Insurance Required?


Generally, you won't need to provide your own auto insurance, as most individuals taking a permit test won't actually own their cars. Instead, they'll likely be covered by the parent's or guardian's insurance policy.

But, if insurance is required, you'll need to have at least this much coverage:

  • 20,000 bodily injury coverage for injuries or a death occurring to one person in an accident.
  • $40,000 bodily injury coverage for injuries or deaths occurring to more than one person in an accident.
  • $10,000 property damage coverage for an accident.
