DMV has adopted emergency rules to waive road tests in certain circumstances for customers 18+!
DMV has adopted emergency rules to waive road tests in certain circumstances for customers 18 years old and older to obtain a Class C license. The road test waiver under the new rules will apply to the following circumstances:
Drivers who currently hold a Level I permit, have turned 18 years old and meet all requirements to obtain the Level II Limited Provisional License, including no motor vehicle moving violation convictions, seat belt infractions or unlawful use of a mobile phone.
Drivers who have received training and passed a driving course from a DMV certified North Carolina driving school within the previous 12 months and have not been convicted of a motor vehicle moving violation, seat belt infraction or unlawful use of a mobile phone.
Drivers who previously held an NC drivers license, and the license has not been expired more than one renewal cycle and was in good standing at the time of expiration.
Drivers 18 years old and less than 66 years old –not expired more than 8 years.
Drivers 66 years or older – not expired more than 5 years.
Drivers from another state, district or territory that has reciprocity with North Carolina. Drivers must provide their most recent license held and a certified 5-year driving record from that jurisdiction. License cannot be expired more than 5 years and must have been in good standing at the time of expiration.
Road test requirements for these drivers will be suspended and the driver will be issued a driver license with the appropriate expiration. Unlike the Level II waiver, these drivers will not be required to return later to take a road test. There may be VERY LIMITED circumstances outside of those outlined above where DMV may be able to waive a road test. Contact an office if you think you have such a circumstance.
The new rules take effect July 23, 2020. All DMV services will continue to be by APPOINTMENT ONLY;
