No tricky questions...very very easy. Read through the manual once and you'll ace it.

yeah, the written is cake as long as you at least read the manual. Many are common sense too. Ive taken the test several times, not due to failing but because ive re-newed my permit 6 times and the written is only good for 1 year...one day ill take the road test...lol

If they ask what alcohol is most consumed before driving (which later results in accidents, etc) the answer is beer.

The written test was very easy... BUT, I would recommend to either rent a scooter or borrow if anybody you know has one a small dual sport!! I took it on my 800cc Suzuki Marauder in Cherry Hill and it was tough because how small the course was....The day I went I was the only knucklehead with a full size bike lol so, when we got there my uncle said I told you to rent a scooter lol...

I went in to get the manual one day and the lady at the dmv asked if id like to take the written test. I asked her if it mattered if i failed, and she said no, so i figured since i was there i might as well. I passed it without reading the manual. just think about some of the things, its mostly common sense, like a passenger is supposed to sit as close to you as possible, if you run over something in the road (i think they use a piece of tailpipe or tree branch), stand up on the bike for the best leverage, 1 beer = 1 glass of wine = 1 shot, there was one about the best way to tell when theres on coming traffic at night, i picked 'look at the telephone wires for headlights', becuase thats how i've always been able to tell there's people coming, and it was right.. that kinda stuff... its real easy.

yeah, the written was a breeze, but the course was a pain on the Honda 400 POS 1970 something I was riding, lol. it would have been much easier on a scooter, like an Elite or something...
thank goodness I passed8)
