Local tips
Taber Licence & Registry Ltd. is at 5225 48 Ave. Hours vary, so call 403-223-4942 before you go, and book your road test by appointment. Railway level crossings are the first hazard to plan for: map data shows them about 280 m, 405 m and 615 m from the registry, with two more about 1.3 km out. Slow down, look both ways and never stop on the tracks. 46 Avenue, which carries Highways 3 and 36, is about 220 m away and posted at 60 km/h. There are six sets of traffic lights within a kilometre, the nearest about 305 m away, plus 13 stop signs within 1.2 km and 24 marked crosswalks within 800 m. LT Westlake School is about 765 m away, so watch for students on weekdays. Our 44.0 km practice route uses 54 Street and 47 Avenue to reach 46 Avenue, heads out on Range Road 161 and Veterans Memorial Highway, then returns along 50 Avenue, the Crowsnest Highway and 62 Avenue before ending on 51 Street. Practice full stops at the stop signs and smooth acceleration onto the highways.
Common questions
Taber Licence & Registry Ltd. road test FAQ
What are the hours at Taber Licence & Registry Ltd.?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Taber Licence & Registry Ltd. at 403-223-4942 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through Taber Licence & Registry Ltd.'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 Taber Licence & Registry Ltd.?
Yes. This page has a 44.0 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
