Unlock everything — $14.99🚫 Your test may not begin if…
The examiner inspects your vehicle and paperwork first. Any of these gets the vehicle rejected before you drive a foot:
- !No valid safety inspection sticker
- !Missing license plates, registration card, or decals
- !Brakes, safety belts, horn, lights, turn signals, mirrors, or speedometer not working — the manual lists every one
- !The test cannot be taken in an autocycle
- !You provide the vehicle — no vehicle, no road skills test
⚠️ You may be disqualified during the test for…
- ✗Virginia publishes no instant-fail list in the manual — but examiners everywhere end tests for violations and dangerous actions
- ✗An unsafe or improperly equipped vehicle means the test never starts
- ✗Fail and you wait: the skills test runs once per business day, two days after a failure
- ✗Three DMV failures and an in-vehicle driver-ed course is required before the next attempt
