WARNING
You May Unintentionally Cancel Your Ringer’s Test
·       If you schedule your own test on the registry’s website while your name is PENDING on Ringer’s request, the registry will automatically delete your name from Ringer’s list.
·       The registry gives preference to anything you do on your own behalf over anything Ringer’s does for you (if you book a backup, you will be stuck with it).
 
The Practice Test:
 
The practice test is a skills refresher and not intended to teach a student to drive. If you don’t know how to parallel park or perform basic skills needed to pass the test, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND you schedule a full 1-hour driving lesson before scheduling a test. The fee for a full 1-hour driving lesson is $75. If you schedule a 1-hour lesson, the fee would be separate from and in addition to the $145 sponsorship fee.
 
The practice test is not required. You may take the test if you skip the practice, but your chances of passing go up if you attend.
 
Can I CANCEL My Test?
  • If you cancel your Ringer’s road test, the registry will add a $35 cancellation fee to your balance due on your MyRMV portal.
  • If you cancel your Ringer’s road test within 24 hours after receiving the road test assignment email, the registry MAY waive their $35 cancelled test fee (not guaranteed).
  • If you miss the test, (do not show up), you must pay the registry’s $35 missed test fee on the RMV website or in person at any full-service registry before you or a driving school can schedule a new test.
  • How to reschedule:
  • After cancelling, if you want to reschedule to a different date, go on the registry’s website and schedule your own road test appointment, or
  • Go to Ringer’s road test page, pay another $25 sign up fee to hire Ringer’s to reschedule your test. The $25 sign up fee is non-refundable and does not carry forward.
