DOL DRIVING TEST

(also called Road Test)

Must have passed your DOL Written Test to sign up for this test

Please take the time to review “What to Expect on My Drive Test”.  This info was created by the State of WA DOL.  There are a few YouTube videos and a list of requirements you will be tested on.  This info is very valuable to help you get ready for the test!  Here is the link:  https://www.dol.wa.gov/driver-licenses-and-permits/driver-training-and-testing/what-expect-your-drive-test

The DOL Driving Test can be taken now or just before they are ready to apply for their license, or any time in between.  It is up to you and your student to decide together when they are ready for their test.  When making this decision, please keep the following timelines in mind:

1)   The DOL Written Test score is valid for 2 years.  If the license is not obtained within 2 years of passing this test, it will need to be taken again.

2)   The DOL Driving Test score is valid for 1 year.  If the license is not obtained within 1 year of passing this test, it will need to be taken again.

One attempt at this test is included in your course.

You will schedule this test in your DSS student portal.  (see instructions in gold box below)

All classes that began in 2022, 2023 and 2024 have portal accounts (even if you may not have used it). If your class started before 2022, please contact our office for help.  Text, call or email.  (425-415-7775, Help@XcelerateDriving.com)  Please include your name and WDL# when you contact us.
