About the North Carolina Parking Rules test
This free North Carolina DMV practice test drills parking rules, from parallel parking to securing your car on a slope. Our NC DMV practice test teaches where parking is prohibited, including near fire hydrants, crosswalks, intersections, and marked no-parking zones, all as spelled out in the North Carolina Driver's Handbook. This North Carolina permit practice test also covers curb turning: which way to point your wheels facing uphill versus downhill so your vehicle stays put if the brakes ever fail.
Which way do you turn your wheels when parking uphill in North Carolina? Turn them away from the curb so the car rolls back into it if it moves, according to the NC DMV. How many questions are on the NC permit test? Twenty-five, and you need 80% (20 correct) to pass. This free NC DMV practice test needs no signup and is updated for the NC DMV test 2026. Repeat this North Carolina DMV practice test until every parking and hill-parking rule is second nature before your real NC permit test.
Every question traces back to the North Carolina Driver's Manual - skim the right-of-way and signs chapters before your retake.
