- Vehicle requirements 28 questions
- Passenger solicitation 56 questions

- Accessible dispatch 24 questions

Made for this exam, not any exam
A real map for geography
The roads, bridges and tunnels are drawn from NYC Open Data and U.S. Census data and stored in the app. All six kinds of geography question are there: best route, compass direction, points of interest, connections, where a road starts and ends, and reading a map.
Your 90-day clock
Enter your application date and see the last day to register for the courses (day 85), the last safe day to pass the exam (day 87) and the day the application expires (day 90), with reminders if you want them.
A plan if you do not pass
PSI emails failed candidates a summary of what to study. Mark those topics and get a 1, 3 or 7 day plan. You can sit again after 24 hours, and each attempt costs $49 again.
Your language, all of it
Questions, answers, explanations and lessons in English, Spanish, Russian and Bengali. English is one tap away on every question, so you learn the terms you will hear at work.
Exams that feel like the exam
Four numbered 80-question exams that never share a question, new random exams, and a 20-question quick exam. Answers stay hidden until the end. The clock stops when you close the app.
Current numbers, with their source
Fares, fines and deadlines come from the current TLC pages and rules, and each question shows its section and check date. The 2019 study guide is older, and where it differs the app follows the newer source.
