Schedule Your Road Test Online

You don’t have to stand around and wait for your turn to take a road test. You can make the process must faster by scheduling an appointment online. You will need your license permit number, date of birth, and zip code to create an appointment.

When you arrive at your appointment, be sure to bring a completed LI-1 license application form. You will need this form to take the test.

Go Over Your Checklists

The Rhode Island DMV makes it easy to get ready for your appointment. It offers checklists for the various services.

Contact the Rhode Island DMV

You can contact the DMV Cranston Headquarters or one of the branch offices. Once you decide which office you need to contact, reach out to the customer service reps over the phone.

While most DMV centers in Rhode Island close at 5pm, we encourage you to visit earlier during hours of operation to be sure you get the help you need.
