What is required before taking a road test?

Before taking a road test, it is essential to obtain a test permit from a registry agent. This permit is a formal document that shows you are eligible to take the road test based on your prior requirements, such as holding a learner's permit for a certain duration and completing any necessary prerequisites that apply in Alberta. The test permit serves as proof that you have met the regulatory requirements to access the road test, ensuring that you are prepared and authorized to demonstrate your driving abilities.

While completing a written exam might be part of the process leading up to getting a learner's permit, it is not a requirement specifically for taking the road test itself. Similarly, having a peer accompany you during the test is not a standard requirement, nor is providing proof of insurance necessary for taking the test. The focus is on holding the valid test permit, which is the key step before you can proceed with the road test.
