Road skills are tested at driving schools

OMV directs new-driver road-skills testing through licensed driving schools rather than treating it as an ordinary walk-in OMV branch test.

A student must have the Temporary Instructional Permit in possession during the road-skills test.

Teen eligibility depends on the GDL stage

Ages 15 and 16 must meet the learner-permit holding-period and other current GDL requirements before progression.
