The Patrol asks applicants to be patient and to allow essential drivers with the most pressing need for service to test first. Those applicants who are able to wait until after Memorial Day to seek testing services will assist in making this process smoother for all drivers.
The Patrol also asks applicants to wear a face covering while in driver examination facilities and adhere to social distancing guidelines. Face coverings will be removed briefly when the applicants photo is taken during the licensing process. We request applicants appearing for skills testing to arrive with a sanitized vehicle and a face covering to wear during testing.
Please refrain from taking a written or skills-based driver examination if:
·
you, a member of your household, a family member, or other personal acquaintance, have been diagnosed with COVID-19;
·
you have had contact with any person diagnosed with, or suspected of having, COVID-19;
·
a medical professional, hospital staff member, or other health agency representative has asked you to self-quarantine; or
·
you have an undiagnosed fever, cough, shortness of breath, or other symptoms associated with COVID-19 or another upper respiratory infection.
If you are unsure about whether you meet any of these criteria, please postpone seeking a driver examination and return at a later date.
This request is based on the recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that are designed to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
We appreciate the public’s patience and support as services gradually return to normal during the recovery portion of the COVID-19 pandemic.
