SC DMV Approved Driving Test / Road Skills Test
Our Unfair Advantage
Just look at all that space — this is the easiest way to pass your test.
Over 98% of our students pass the road test on the first try. We credit that to our vehicles and excellent instructors
Our driving school vehicles are easier to 3-point turn and parallel park than any other driving school car.
The Unfair Advantage is just what it says. The vehicles that we use for training and testing have been selected on purpose to give the student the easiest way to maneuver a test car into and out of the parallel parking spot. The high position of the driver, large rear window, no rear trunk and very short wheelbase make our vehicles the easiest to take the road test in, the easiest way to pass your road test.
No other driving school has a vehicle that performs better on the road test. We know, we have tried them all.

Since 2012, 803 Drivers Ed has been licensed and approved as a Third Party Tester school. The South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles has determined that we are able to administer the road test to students. For this service, students will be taken on an SC DMV-approved route and allowed to complete the road test. Once the test is over, we will immediately submit the results to the DMV electronically. From there, you will be able to go straight to the DMV, where they will complete a vision screening, take your picture, and print your license on paper. Your drivers license will arrive in the mail a few days later, but you will have driving privileges with the paper copy until your new license arrives.
The cost for the road test service will be $75 (discounted to $60 for students of 803 Drivers Ed), payable the date the road test is administered. It is not required for students to complete the road test through our school, as the SC DMV will still be administering the road test daily during the week. For students who have difficulty getting to the DMV during normal business hours, we offer test administration on weekends. All tests administered through our school are done in our vehicles, with our instructors.
The road skills test through 803 Drivers Ed is QUICK (usually less than 15min), EASY thanks to the UNFAIR ADVANTAGE our vehicles provide, and STRESS FREE thanks to our friendly staff!
