Road Skills Test

Description

ROAD SKILLS TEST

• The Circle City Driving Academy road skills test is intended for scholars who have
  completed both, the 30-hour class AND in-car instruction.
• If you have failed the road skills test, we recommend waiting two weeks before a retake.
  After three failed attempts, you must wait 60 days to retake the test.

ELIGIBILITY

• By completing both the 30-hour class and in-car instruction, you are eligible for the state
  road skills test.
• If you did not complete your online education with Circle City Driving Academy, we
  must have your completion certificate on file.
• Students must be at least 15 years and 6 months old to take the test.
• All tests will be administered in a Circle City Driving Academy vehicle.
• Tests are not administered in all areas and may change without notice.
• The road skills test administered by Circle City Driving Academy will replace the test
  administered at the license branch.

SCHEDULING

• Scholars can schedule the driving skills test by completing the form on our website.

  the 30-hour online course (classroom) and six (6) hours of in-vehicle instruction.

• Unfortunately, a driving skills test cannot be on the same day as the final driving lesson.
• All scholars who take the driving skills test will be required to have a valid learner’s
  permit and documentation verifying completion (State Form 55745).
• Please complete the contact form to schedule your driving skills test.
• The scheduling of the road test will be arranged after payment.
• After payment is received, it may take up to 7-10 business days before the test will be
  scheduled with the instructor.

PRACTICE

• Before you schedule the test with Circle City Driving Academy, do a practice test with
  your student.
• The parents should take the student on a 20-minute ride, only providing directions
• about where to go.
• No coaching should take place.
• The drive should include most driving tasks: roundabouts, left and right stoplight turns, merging, lane changes, stop signs, and parallel parking. Left turns on solid green lights need to be practiced, fully understood, and competency demonstrated.
• If verbal coaching, clarifying questions, and a lack of demonstration regarding how to operate a motor vehicle persist, additional practice is needed.
