Class C Testing Business

If you need to take a drive test to get your license, you have the option to test with a DMV contracted Class C testing business.

These businesses:

• Provide drive tests approved by DMV;
• Set their own fees and days of operation; and
• Test only for Class C non-commercial license applicants.

Motorcycle and CDL tests are given somewhere else.

Why Use a Testing Business?

Third party testing businesses are the sole-providers for drive tests in the state of Oregon at this time. Find their contact information below.

Taking the Test

After passing the knowledge test and vision screening at DMV, you may contact a testing business directly to make a drive test appointment.

Things to remember:

• DMV is not involved in scheduling, canceling or re-scheduling the drive tests with these businesses. Contact the business directly.
• You will need to provide the testing business with your Oregon DMV customer number. If you already have an instruction permit or ID card, your customer number is towards the top of that document. If you don’t have an instruction permit or ID card, you will need to obtain your customer number from a DMV field office at the time of your knowledge test, or by calling our customer assistance line at 503-945-5000.
• You must take two photo copies of a picture ID to the drive test.
• Currently, all of the testing businesses require you to use one of their company owned vehicles for the test.
• To be eligible to take a drive test:
• You must be 16 years or older. If you are under 18, you must have held an instruction permit for at least six months.
• Your driving privileges cannot be suspended or revoked.
• You must not be in the At-Risk Driver Program.
• You cannot have an existing requirement for an ignition interlock device (IID).
• When you come in to DMV, you will need to provide proof of your identity and meet any other requirements.
• You must pass the vision screening and both the knowledge and drive test to be eligible for a driver license.
  

Wait Time Requirements If You Fail the Drive Test

If you fail the drive test, you must wait until the next business day to test again.
