Thousands of licensed drivers in California are being required to retake their knowledge tests because the California Department of Motor Vehicles says it found “irregularities” in their test results and suspects them of cheating, officials said today.
Last month, the DMV sent letters to some 11,000 drivers saying that their written test results showed “irregularities.” The department did not provide specifics about what problems were found with the tests.
Those receiving the letters were instructed to return to a DMV office and retake their knowledge test within 30 days. Individuals who do not complete and pass the retest will have their driver’s license cancelled, the DMV said.

The DMV indicated that some individuals may have attempted to cheat during the testing process.
“The California DMV has identified irregularities in certain driver knowledge test results that may indicate instances of cheating,” a department spokesperson said.
Through “routine internal monitoring,” the department identified patterns in driver knowledge test results indicating that “some individuals may have attempted to circumvent the testing process using various cheating methods,” the representative said.
The DMV emphasized that although certain test results have been identified as “potentially problematic,” receipt of a notice alone does not indicate a final determination that cheating occurred in that instance.
“Nonetheless, these irregularities are test taker related and not the result of an internal DMV technical issue, or involvement of artificial intelligence,” the spokesperson said. “Ensuring the integrity of the knowledge testing process is essential to public safety and to confirm that drivers understand California’s rules of the road.”
Several cases have been referred to county district attorneys for prosecution, according to the DMV.
“DMV is not sharing additional information at this time, so as not to reveal investigative methods and protect the integrity of the investigative process,” the department said Tuesday.
