Resources for Teachers and Parents

Meanwhile, here are a few items that might be of interest to you:

From 1994 to 1996, John created some materials to help people prepare for the Arkansas Driver's License exam.
On this web page, you can view and download sample tests, which you are welcome to rewrite for use in your classroom.
Be sure you check that the answers are correct for your state. Even in Arkansas, some of the answers are now wrong, because laws have changed.
There is also a DOS program which can run on any Windows-compatible system, though we no longer recommend it as highly.
(If you install it to an XP system, you will get a warning that it is not compatible with XP, but you should be able to safely ignore the warning for THIS program, though we obviously are only giving you our opinion.)
Teachers and parents who find these Driver's License materials useful are invited to use PayPal to send a donation to {CreditCards (at) DriverExam.org} and we'll get over 90% of your donation after they deduct fees.
If you are sending a donation from your checking account or from your available PayPal balance, you may send the donation to {Donations (at) DriverExam.org} and we'll get 100% of your donation. (Or you may mail a donation to the address at the bottom of this page.)
As implied above, this material is a bit dated, but we hope to create new materials in the future, possibly including a web-interactive test. We're trying to twist John's arm a bit. If you want to encourage this development, send your donation with a request that "John get on the ball ASAP."
