Being Prepared for the Road Test

On the day you take your Class D road test, you must fulfill several requirements:

Have a completed road test application, and have your parent or guardian complete the parental consent section if you are under age 18. In completing the application for the road test, you will be required to disclose whether you have a physical, mental, or medical condition or are taking any medications that might affect your ability to operate a motor vehicle. If you do, prior to taking a road test, you must submit medical clearance, from your physician, to a Branch manager. The Road Test Examiner will review your application and either approve it or forward it to the Medical Affairs Branch for appropriate review.

Have your learner’s permit.

Bring a qualified sponsor (see the Sponsor Requirements section). Driving Instructor will act as sponsor if you taking it with the driving school.

Provide an acceptable, properly equipped, legally registered vehicle to use in your test. (see the Passenger Vehicle Requirements section). You will be using a school car if you are taking it with the driving school.
If you are between 16 1/2 and 18 years old, you must have a driver’s education certificate electronically on file with the RMV from a licensed driving school or a high school program that is approved by the Registrar before you can schedule a road test. As part of the road test application, your parent or guardian must certify and sign, on the front of your license application, that you have also completed 12 hours of driving supervised by a licensed driver aged 21 or over.
