Local tips
Four-lane roads set the tone around the Medicine Hat Licence Centre at 2805 13 Ave SE. 13 Avenue Southeast, posted at 50 km/h, runs about 45 m from the door, and Dunmore Road Southeast, also four lanes, is about 610 m away. Pick your lane early, signal, and check your blind spot before any lane change. Map data counts 19 sets of traffic lights within a kilometre, the nearest about 295 m away. Crestwood School is about 760 m away, so watch for students on weekdays, and a fire station about 990 m away means you should be ready to pull over for emergency vehicles. Two roundabouts lie about 1.4 and 1.5 km away; yield to traffic already in them and signal your exit. Hours vary, so call 403-528-4868 to confirm, and book ahead because road tests are by appointment. Our 27.7 km practice route uses 13 Avenue Southeast, College Drive Southeast and Kipling Street Southeast, then South Railway Street Southeast and Ross Glen Drive Southeast before coming back by Dunmore Road Southeast. Practice lane changes on the four-lane sections.
Common questions
Medicine Hat Licence Centre road test FAQ
What are the hours at Medicine Hat Licence Centre?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Medicine Hat Licence Centre at 403-528-4868 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through Medicine Hat Licence Centre'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 Medicine Hat Licence Centre?
Yes. This page has a 27.7 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
