Local tips

Railway crossings come up almost immediately at Didsbury Registries, 2004 20 St in Didsbury. Map data shows three level crossings about 80 to 95 m away and three more about 500 to 565 m away. Slow right down, look both ways and never stop on the tracks. Hours vary, so phone 403-518-6247 to confirm; road tests are by appointment. Several schools are close by, including Didsbury Preschool about 420 m away, Ross Ford Elementary School about 560 m and Westglen Middle School about 595 m, so watch for children on weekdays. Highway 582 is about 420 m from the registry and posted at 60 km/h. The Didsbury Fire Hall is about 780 m away and Didsbury District Health Services about 960 m, so be ready to pull over for emergency vehicles. There are no traffic lights within a kilometre. Our 49.3 km practice route uses 20 Avenue, 20 Street, 15 Avenue and 23 Street, then 7 Avenue, Township Road 310 and Highway 2A.

Common questions

Didsbury Registries road test FAQ

What are the hours at Didsbury Registries?

Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Didsbury Registries at 403-518-6247 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through Didsbury Registries's road test booking page (the "Official booking" button on this page, also listed on alberta.ca), or in person at the registry. You'll need your 9-digit MVID number, printed near the barcode on your licence, and any outstanding Government of Alberta fines must be paid first. Registry agents set their own road test fees, up to the maximum in the province's Registry Agent Product Catalogue, so confirm the fee when you book.

What do I need for the road test?

A vehicle that meets all legal and safety requirements, plus the documents listed on the registry's road test information sheet and in your confirmation letter. The information sheet also covers eligibility, fees, and the registry's cancellation and no-show policies.

How long do I need my learner's licence first, and how is the test marked?

You must have held a Class 7 learner's licence for at least one year and be at least 16 (with a parent's or guardian's written consent if you're under 18). You fail the Class 5 road test with more than 75 points, or automatically if you endanger someone, drive unsafely or break traffic laws. After you pass the road test and a vision test, you get a probationary Class 5-GDL licence, which you hold for at least two years.

Is a practice route available for Didsbury Registries?

Yes. This page has a 49.3 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
