What are the requirements for taking a road test?

Asked a year ago
To take a road test in New York State, there are a few requirements that must be met. Firstly, you must have a valid NY learner permit or a driver license from another state or country. Additionally, you must be at least 16 years old to apply for a junior driver's license or 17 for a senior license. To schedule a road test, you must provide proof of identity, date of birth, and social security number. Before the test, you must also submit a completed MV-278 pre-licensing course certificate or a valid driver education completion certificate. Moreover, you need a properly inspected vehicle with valid registration and auto insurance coverage. Remember, it is essential to bring a licensed driver with you for the test. Ensure you review all the specific requirements on the New York State DMV website before your road test appointment.
