New Brunswick Learner Test · Put your knowledge to work in context.

The New Brunswick Learner Test is the knowledge exam a new driver in New Brunswick must pass to obtain a Class 7 learner permit before supervised driving practice. This page is an independent study resource: it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Government of New Brunswick or Service New Brunswick, and it is not an official publication. The exam is delivered in multiple-choice format and is organized around four areas: rules of the road; traffic signs and signals; safe driving practices; and licensing and vehicle requirements. Each area carries equal emphasis in this study material, so a candidate should expect sign recognition, right-of-way and intersection rules, hazard perception and following-distance judgment, and administrative questions about permits, documents, and vehicle condition. The New Brunswick Learner Test case studies are 5 cases and about 3,747 words.
