From how far is the eye test for driving?
I’m due to renew my license and I know I have to take a vision test. My eyesight has gotten worse and I’m worried that I won’t pass. How far do you have to stand for the eye test for driving?

Completing the vision test makes a lot of people nervous—you’re definitely not alone! For uncorrected visual acuity, you will have to remove your glasses or contact lenses and you will stand 20 feet (or 6 meters) away from the eye chart.
While you don’t need to have 20/20 vision, the DMV wants to make sure you can see the road before you get behind the wheel of a car! If you’re having a difficult time reading the eye chart, you may be required to complete other vision tests before you can get a new license or renew an existing one.
Apart from being able to see the road, you’ll also want to make sure your car is fully protected.
