Effective November 1, 2024, individuals seeking to obtain their Commercial Vehicle Operator’s Registration (CVOR) certificate as new truck and bus operators through the New Entrant Education and Evaluation Program (NEEEP) are required to participate in digital module training. This replaces the current NEEEP study guide and in-person test.

Important Notice Regarding a Change to the Road Test Booking System

DriveTest introduced a change to ensure that the booking system provides fair access to all who need to take a road test. Prior to canceling any road test, you should ensure that you are unable to attend your road appointment, as all cancellations are final. When you cancel the road test you will have to book a new date and/or time for your road test.
