Walk-In Driver Knowledge Test in Washington

You can walk in and take the official Washington driver knowledge test at the WMST Everett Express office, no appointment required. It is 40 questions, you need 80% to pass, and it costs $25. Sessions run at 9:30 am, 1 pm, and 4 pm on weekdays, and WMST is a DOL-approved examiner.

WMST is a DOL-approved examiner

Skip the wait, just walk in.

Booking a knowledge test at a busy licensing office can mean waiting weeks. As a DOL-approved examiner, WMST runs the same official test as a walk-in, so you go when you are ready. Show up before a session, take the 40-question test on the computer, and you have your result the same day.

It is the real DOL knowledge test, not a practice quiz. The fee is $25, and it covers more than one attempt, so a nervous first try is not the end of the world.
