For many Philly area student drivers, getting licensed as soon as possible is a top priority. But, long DMV wait times of weeks or even months can get in the way of this objective. Fortunately, there is an option to take a third-party driver’s license test at Driven2Drive. Offering an expedited testing experience in a student-focused environment, Driven2Drive will work hard to get you scheduled for the soonest possible upcoming exam time – often within a few days! We offer the road test (administered on PennDOT-approved testing routes) at all six of our locations – Oaks, Horsham, Bala Cynwyd, West Chester, Brookhaven, and NE Philadelphia.
What to Expect at Your Driver’s License Test
While all driver’s license tests in the USA are very similar, there are some slight differences from state to state. Remember that before you even start the test, you’ll need to present relevant documentation, including a medical exam certificate, ID document, roadworthy certificate on your vehicle, and others.
The test consists of a ‘yard test’ (where you’ll need to exhibit your ability to parallel park and start on a hill) as well as a road test. The road test makes up the bulk of the exam, and in it, you’ll be tested on navigating four-way stops, exhibiting defensive driving techniques, maintaining a safe following distance, staying within your lane, using the gears correctly, incorporating signals, and more.
We’ve got all the info rounded up for you in this article on the expectations of your PA driving test.
Benefits of Using a Third-Party Driver’s License Testing Center
The test done at a third-party driver’s license center is the same as that at the PennDOT Driver’s License Center. The examiners, such as those at Driven2Drive, have been certified by PennDOT.
One of the main reasons new drivers choose a third-party center (and especially Driven2Drive) is the quick and easy driving exam scheduling. Tests are often booked in only a few days; a large difference compared to the PennDOT Center which may only have availability in weeks or months.
By taking your driving test at a third-party center, you’d have the chance to become acquainted with the exact yard of your test, through doing lessons at the center’s school. Accustomizing oneself to any of the surroundings allows a greater feeling of preparedness.
Certain schools with built-in testing centers, such as Driven2Drive, offer the unique service of a rental car specifically for lessons and the tests. Taking the test in the same car you’ve trained in is enormously helpful, and of course vital if you don’t own a roadworthy vehicle yet.

Here’s what Patricia M. had to say after her son came to Driven2Drive for lessons and his third-party PA driver’s license test:
“My son went to a few lessons and did his test with this company. He was nervous and they made him feel very comfortable. They were very nice and taught him a few things that would help him with his test. He felt much more confident after his lessons, and they were very patient with him during his lessons and on testing day. They were also COVID-19 compliant. He had Shavar and Brian. I highly recommend this establishment!” – Patricia M.
In addition to hassle-free, expedited road testing, Driven2Drive also offers private automatic & manual transmission driving lessons. Here’s what one mom had to say about her son’s experience taking a lesson and completing his license exam with us:
“My son had two experiences with the DMV, both times failing for parallel parking. He was able to parallel park when we practiced with actual cars with no problem. The DMV just made him way too nervous. We did the 2-hour course and the test right after. They told us that if he was not ready, the instructor would not administer the test. I was so happy with the customer service there – very friendly and relaxing atmosphere. I wish I would have skipped the DMV altogether!!!” – Charlotte K.
