You need at least 15 of the 20 questions correct to pass the Road Code Test — that works out to 75%.

Yes. The Road Code Test itself is free, and the Island Traffic Authority warns that you should not pay anyone to take it. Separate government fees apply later in the licensing process (for example the J$1,800 provisional licence and the J$3,240 driver's licence examination fee, paid at the Tax Office), but the Road Code Test carries no charge.

The Road Code Test is administered by the Island Traffic Authority (ITA), which operates under the Ministry of Transport & Mining. Licensing fees are paid to Tax Administration Jamaica, but the ITA conducts the tests.

The test has two sections: (1) traffic signals and road signs, and (2) the rules of the road. Practicing a broad mix across both areas — road signs and driving rules alike — gives the most realistic preparation for the real exam.

Yes. You must first obtain a Learner's (Provisional) Driver's Licence and hold it before the full driving test. Under the rules in force from 1 February 2023, provisional permits issued on or after that date must be held for six months. The full licence is then obtained in order: reading test, written (Road Code) test, yard test, and road test.

The minimum age to drive a private motor vehicle is 17. For public passenger vehicles it is 21. Applicants must also be able to read and must have no road-traffic convictions in the previous 12 months.

Jamaica's current road-traffic rules come from the Road Traffic Act 2018 and the Road Traffic Regulations 2022, which came into force on 1 February 2023. Much older online material predates these rules, so it is important to practice with up-to-date questions.
