Driver licensing
Book a road test
Ready to take your road test? Book your appointment now and pay your testing fee when you arrive.
When you come for your test, be sure to bring accepted ID and a safe, reliable and insured vehicle.
Standby road tests available
If you have a flexible schedule and are comfortable with waiting at one of our driver licensing offices, a standby road test may be a convenient option.
Book your car or motorcycle road test
You can book, reschedule or cancel your Class 5, 6, 7, 8 road test appointment or Motorcycle Skills test online. If you're exchanging your licence from a non-reciprocal country and have not yet been issued an interim driver's licence, contact our driver licensing information line to book your road test.
If you have to cancel, please give us 48 hours’ notice, otherwise there is a $25 cancellation fee. If you need to change your appointment from outside Canada or the United States, please call our driver licensing information line to cancel or reschedule.
For cars and motorcycle testing, the earliest date you can take the test is listed on your licence. Try to book well in advance, as our offices can get busy especially during spring and summer.
As people cancel or reschedule, new appointments on earlier dates may become available. Please note that calling to book or reschedule an appointment will not result in different available times than booking online.
Motorcycle road or skills tests are only available at certain locations.
Outstanding debt
If you have outstanding debt with us, it could affect your licence renewal or upgrade. Before you book an appointment, please call Account Services (604-661-2723 or 1-800-665-6442).
If this online service doesn't meet your accessibility needs, please contact us and we can help you. If English is not your first language and you'd like to access services in another language, try our translation services.
Book your commercial vehicle road test
To book or change your commercial road test (Class 1, 2, 3, 4), please call our driver licensing information line. These road tests cannot be booked or updated online.
For your privacy, only you can book or change road test appointments. Please have your driver licence number or plate number ready when you call.
Book your medical re-exam
To book or change your medical re-exam road test, please call our driver licensing information line. These appointments cannot be booked or updated online.
Standby road tests
Standby road tests are available if other customers cancel or don't show up for their appointments, so we can't guarantee that spots will always be available. However, we'll try our best to accommodate you.
Want to try standing by for a road test? Here's how it works:
Find an ICBC location that offers the type of road test you need on standby from the lists below.
Some locations only offer road tests for class 5 and 7 licences, so make sure you find the right location for your desired licence class.
Standby road tests will be allocated based on a first come-first served basis. Please visit your nearest driver licensing office for a listing of office hours for your preferred location.
