How much does it cost to pass your driving test?

I will be registering for my driving test soon. How much will it cost?

Tiffany Leung · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
In most places, it costs about $40 to take a driving test. 
The exact amount varies by state, so checking with your state’s DMV is a good idea. In many states, the road test is free or the expense is included in the driver’s license fee.
Here are some example costs by state:
Be aware that there may be additional fees to retake the test if you don’t pass your test on the first try. You may also need to wait a specified amount of time before you can take the test again.
Get rid of your nerves before your driving test so you can pass on your first try. Here are some other tips to help you pass:
  • Practice:
    Practice a lot
     to build your confidence on the road.
  • Learn: Ask a parent or instructor to help you iron out any bad habits you may have.
  • Rehearse: Get familiar with the testing area so you won’t be surprised by any road work or other obstacles.
  • Rest: Get plenty of rest so that you can focus on the road during your test.
Remember to
bring your permit
 anytime you get behind the wheel—it’s the law.
Good luck!

What Others Are Asking

Does driving for Uber Eats affect insurance?
One of my friends told me that he was making about $200 a day driving for Uber Eats. I’m in need of some extra money, so I think I might give it a go. I’m just worried that it may cause an increase in my insurance. Will driving for Uber Eats affect my insurance?

Do insurance companies check your driving record?
I recently got into an accident and had to submit a claim. I also got a ticket for speeding. Since I have insurance, will my insurance company check my driving record again? Do companies only check driving records when you first apply for insurance?
