The Texas DPS Highway Sign and Traffic Law Examination has 30 multiple-choice questions. You need at least 21 correct (70%) to pass. Both the question count and the passing score are set by the Texas Department of Public Safety — they are the same for all Texas driver license applicants, whether testing online through this course or in person at a DPS office.
