New Hampshire Permit Test (Driver Knowledge Exam) — All Questions

In New Hampshire, a driver 21 or older is legally impaired at a BAC of:

• a.0.05 percent
• b.0.08 percent✓
• c.0.10 percent
• d.0.15 percent

The adult BAC limit is 0.08 percent, though you can be charged at a lower level if impaired. (New Hampshire Driver's Manual, DWI)

For a driver under 21, New Hampshire applies a zero-tolerance BAC limit of:

• a.0.02 percent✓
• b.0.05 percent
• c.0.08 percent
• d.0.10 percent

Drivers under 21 can be charged at a BAC of 0.02 percent under New Hampshire's zero-tolerance law. (New Hampshire Driver's Manual, underage DWI)

New Hampshire's youth licensing is unusual because the state:

• a.Issues a full license at 14
• b.Requires no driver education at any age
• c.Does not issue a separate learner's permit, so a person 15 and a half or older practices while accompanied by a licensed adult 25 or older✓
• d.Lets 15-year-olds drive alone

New Hampshire does not issue a stand-alone learner's permit; a person who is at least 15 years and 6 months old may practice driving only when accompanied by a licensed driver 25 or older, and a youth operator license is issued at 16 after driver education.
