Driving Test Procedure in Uttarakhand:

The driving test procedure in Uttarakhand is the same as every other state in the country. The exam is supervised by a Motor Vehicle Inspector . One needs to visit the RTO to give a test. The applicant should have his own vehicle of the same class for which he has applied for a DL. Else, he can also use the vehicle of the driving school.

Test for Two-Wheeler & Three-Wheeler:

For the driving licence test for a two or three-wheeler, an applicant has to ride his or her vehicle within a given border and make ‘Eight’ figure without touching the poles embedded at the corners. One is also judged on the basis of how comfortable he or she is when changing gears, controlling vehicles in corners, reversing, and during the making of ‘figure of eight’ without the feet touching the ground. In case the applicant is successful in satisfying the inspector, he is given an approval for a road test where he or she should ride properly for some distance on a public road.

Test for Four Wheeler:

For four-wheelers, the driving test stays fundamentally the same as that for two or three-wheelers. The applicant has to drive along an 'H' marked on the ground without coming in contact with the columns. Once the applicant has driven to the satisfaction of the inspector, he or she is needed to drive on a public road for some distance with the inspector in the passenger seat. If a candidate fails in either of the tests, a re-test is conducted within 7 days and a nominal fee is charged.
