Paying The Fees

The fees for a Class C drivers license is $4.00 per year and licenses are issued for 5 or 8 years, depending on age. If you are 18 to 53 years old, the license lasts 8 years. If you are 54 or older, than the license lasts 5 years. Checks and cash only!! No Credit Cards!

Restrictions

Individuals must be in good mental and physical health to obtain a North Carolina driver’s license. You must also pass a vision test, so if you wear corrective lenses or contacts you will be required to bring them to the exam.

Organ Donation, Selective Service and Voting

You will be asked to make decisions regarding organ donation, registering to vote and selective service registration while obtaining your NC license. All three are optional and will not impact your ability to obtain a license.

Taking The Tests

No matter if you are a first time driver or if you have been driving for years, you will be required to take a written test among other tests. The following tests must be passed:

  1. Vision
  2. Traffic Signs – (hint: this is tough in NC. You need to know the signs but also be able to know which signs are associated with which SHAPES. They will show you the shape of a sign without anything in it and ask you to tell them what the sign says!)
  3. Driving Knowledge / Written Test
  4. Driving Skills / Road Test
