Making left and right turns 4. Giving hand signals or using vehicle turn signals 5. Driving in the correct lane 6. Maintaining a safe following distance

Straighten your car and back through the box and come to a stop—with your front bumper even with the two rear markers and parallel with the course.

We recommend arriving 15 minutes before your scheduled test time. After check-in, your licensed driver will drive you both around to the side of the DMV where you'll see marked lanes to wait for your road test. An examiner will come out and meet you, verify the registration and insurance for the vehicle and ask for your permit.
There is no cap on the maximum number of times you can take the driving test in Ohio. However, keep these in mind: Applicants under 18 must wait two days before attempting to retake it.
