For your road test, bring your original Pre-Licensing Course Certificate (MV-278) or Student Certificate of Completion (MV-285); copies are not acceptable.

Bring your completed Certification of Supervised Driving (MV-262), if you are under age 18, completed by your parent or guardian.

Bring a driver over the age of 18 (if driving the vehicle to the test site) or over the age of 21 (if accompanying the permit-holder to the test site); in either situation, the other driver must have a physical driver's license that is valid to operate the test vehicle.

Bring a vehicle to drive during the test that has a valid registration and inspection, operates properly, and is in clean condition; if driving a rental vehicle, you must provide the rental agreement and written permission authorizing use of the vehicle for the road test.

Only the accompanying driver of the vehicle is allowed at the road test site (no other passengers are allowed).

Bring your photo learner permit; if you have an interim or temporary learner permit without a photo, you must also show a NYS photo driver license or a NYS non-driver photo ID card; photo documents from other states are not acceptable.
