Practice question

When are you required to take the written test again if your WI license expired more than five years ago?

  1. Under most circumstances
  2. When your identity changes
  3. When you fail a vehicle inspection
  4. Under no circumstances

Answer: A — Under most circumstances

If your Wisconsin license expired more than five years ago, you are required to take the written test again under most circumstances. This means that in certain situations, such as a change of address, name, or type of license, you may not need to retake the written test. However, if none of these circumstances apply and your license has been expired for more than five years, you will need to take the written test again to obtain a new license. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the requirement to retake the written test after an expired license. Being required to retake the written test is not contingent on changes in identity or failing a vehicle inspection, nor is it true that you will never need to retake the written test after an expired license.
