In Michigan, driving skills test services are provided entirely by a privatized third-party testing program. This program utilizes a statewide network of approved public and private organizations that employ examiners certified by the Department to conduct driver skills tests.
The Driving Skills Testing Organization Locator will provide information about third-party driving skills testing organizations statewide. To view organizations in your area, click on the desired region of the State of Michigan map. Next, click on the appropriate county or counties to see if driving skills test services are offered in your location. Not all counties have approved third-party driver skills test sites.
The approved third-party organizations are listed with a required public contact telephone number. Currently, third-party driving skills test fees are not regulated, therefore, you should contact the agencies directly regarding their test scheduling and fee policies that must be provided to you.
Each organization is designated with certain symbols that indicate what type of driving testing services they can offer. The possible designations are:
A = Automobile testing (Operator or Chauffeur base license)
B = Bus testing (Commercial Driver License passenger endorsement)
M = Motorcycle testing (Motorcycle endorsement)
T = Truck testing (Commercial Driver License)
R = Rental (means that one or more vehicle types may be available for rent)
Before taking your driving skills test, be sure to review the third-party driving skills test administration requirements and study the driving skills test standards in the appropriate driving skills test study guide.
