What if you don't have a car for a driving test?

I’ve taken all the behind-the-wheel and in-class instruction, so I’m finally ready to take my driving test. The only problem is that I don’t have a car on my own. What should I do if I don’t have my own car for a driving test?

Don’t stress if you don’t have a car for a driving test. You still have other options. The easiest option is to borrow a car from a friend or family member. Your parents’ insurance should cover you if you borrow their car. However, you may need to get
non-owner car insurance
if you borrow a friend’s car.
The second option is to check with driving schools in your area. Some schools allow you to take the driving test at their facility rather than the DMV, and you can use one of their cars to take the driving test.
Once you pass your driving test, you should start shopping around for affordable car insurance with the
Jerry
