SCDMV resumes skills tests with modifications
May 18, 2020
"Our SCDMV license examiners are excited to resume skills tests to help customers get their driver's licenses to safely operate on South Carolina roadways," said SCDMV Executive Director Kevin Shwedo. "It is time to resume these tests and get South Carolinians back to work. I’m confident this modified test maintains the fidelity of our examination of driver proficiency while ensuring the health and safety of our employees and our customers.”
In addition to Class D skills testing, the SCDMV continues to offer motorcycle and commercial driver’s license (CDL) skills testing by appointment at select SCDMV locations. However, skills tests for recreational vehicle (RV) licenses or licenses for RVs with cars towed behind them (Class E and F licenses) remain suspended.
Customers who do not have an appointment to take a skills test will be turned away. Appointments are only available 21 days in advance. Class D Skills Tests Offered Monday through Friday
