Where can I take a road test?
All Star Driver Education offers the road skills test in Ann Arbor, Niles, and Benton Harbor Michigan. If we do not have a testing site near to you, there is a complete list of companies and locations by county found on the Secretary of State website, here: http://www.michigan.gov/sos/0,1607,7-127-1627_49417_50817-209557–,00.html
Do you offer a rental vehicle?
Rental vehicles are offered at some of our road testing sites for an additional fee. Please call our office to see if we have a rental vehicle in your area.
Does a student have to be 16 years old to take a road test?
Not necessarily. The student must have held their Level One License for a minimum of 6 months, have completed segment 2, and have logged at least 50 hours of driving, at least 10 hours at night, with a licensed adult over the age of 21 years. Students can road test once they meet all those requirements, however they cannot obtain their license at the SOS until they are 16 years of age.

What if I don’t pass my road test?
You must wait at least 24 hours before rescheduling the road test. We do not give refunds for failed road tests, nor do we dismiss the fee for a second road test. This includes documentation failures.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule my road test?
To cancel or reschedule a road test, you must contact our office at least 24 hours in advance. If you call after hours, then you will need to leave a voicemail with your name, phone number, and brief reason for your call within the 24 hour grace period, as the voicemail will provide the date and time of your call. If you do not show up for your road test, or do not contact our office 24 hours in advance, you will forfeit the fee for the road test, and have to pay again in full for another test. You may also email us at least 24 hours in advance for a cancellation as well.
Can I practice at the road test site?
Legally, you cannot practice on the road testing site. Our site is only set up during scheduled test times. Also, you may not test with the same instructor that taught you the behind the wheel in segment 1, or had any private lessons with. Lastly we cannot provide any route information to you, if you wish to know more about the road test or review, please visit: http://www.michigan.gov/documents/ROAD_SKILLS_TEST_STUDY_GUIDE_05-02_21935_7.pdf
How long does the road test last?
Approximately one hour, however it can vary slightly at each location.
Is there a limit to how many times a person may take the road test?
There is no limit, but keep in mind that the price is the same for each test.
What if I am running late for my road test appointment?
If you are 10 or more minutes late for a road test, you may be turned away at the discretion of the road test examiner. There are no refunds issued if you are unable to arrive on time for your scheduled road test. Please note that our corporate office is not a road testing site. All locations, addresses, and specific instructions to get to each road test site are listed on our website Here
What happens if I don’t bring all required items to my road test?
Failure to bring all of the required documents (listed above) will result in a failed road test. No refunds will be issued. If you are under the age of 18, but did not bring a parent or legal guardian to the road test, you will be turned away and no refund will be issued.
If it is raining or snowing, do I still have to take my test?
Yes. If you feel that you will not be able to take your test, you must notify our office at least 24 hours in advance as stated above to cancel or reschedule a test. In the event that the weather has provided an unsafe condition to conduct road tests for that day, the road test examiner or our corporate office staff will contact you.
If I have an interlock device on my vehicle, can I still take a road test?
Yes, in fact you must only test in a vehicle that has an interlock device on it. It is important to make sure that your vehicle with the interlock device installed on it will pass the vehicle inspection portion of the test. The list of items that must be operating on your vehicle can be found here in the Road Skills Test Study Guide. http://www.michigan.gov/documents/ROAD_SKILLS_TEST_STUDY_GUIDE_05-02_21935_7.pdf
What if I lose my road test certificate?
For a reissue of a road test certificate there is a $30.00 fee. To pay for a road test certificate you can do so by calling or visiting our corporate office. Once we receive payment, we can set up hot to get your new certificate (it can be mailed or you can meet up with the examiner).
NOTE: We are unable to email or fax this to you as you are required to have the original.
Do you offer discounts?
No we do not offer discounts on road tests.
