Master Different Road Conditions

Driving through different road types is key to acing your driving test. During the Canton test you’ll navigate a mix of these common road types:

• Residential Streets: Residential areas like South 9th Avenue require you to control your speed, respond promptly to stop signs, and watch for pedestrians and parked vehicles that may obstruct your view.
• Main Roads/Urban Streets: Streets like West Locust Street near the test center are typical urban routes where you’ll navigate moderate traffic, handle multiple intersections with traffic lights, and perform lane changes amid city driving conditions.
• Arterial Road Challenges: While not always featuring highways, the driving test may take you onto IL-9, a major road that functions like an expressway, testing your ability to merge and maintain higher speeds safely.
• Areas with Stop Signs and Traffic Lights: At busy junctions such as W Locust St & S 5th Ave, you’ll need to demonstrate your ability to stop safely, yield when required, and navigate both standard and advanced traffic signals, including left-turn lanes.
• Multiple-Lanes: East Chestnut Street (IL-9), adjacent to the Canton SOS office, is a multi-lane road where proper lane usage, including staying in your lane, signaling intentions, and maintaining speed during lane changes, will be crucial aspects of your driving test.

DMV Behind-the-Wheel Test Features

Before your driving test, it’s important to practice the different tasks you’ll be tested on, such as:

1. Merging into Traffic: Depending on the road or highway, you’ll need to smoothly merge, matching the speed of other vehicles and ensuring a safe transition into the traffic flow.
2. Maintaining Speed: Throughout the test, you’ll need to keep to the correct speed, adjusting as necessary for different road conditions and always following posted speed limits.
3. Lane Changes with Caution: Safely changing lanes involves signaling in advance, monitoring mirrors, checking blind spots, and smoothly merging, while ensuring you maintain speed during the process.
4. Turning in Tight Spaces: You’ll be assessed on your ability to make a three-point or K-turn to reverse direction in a limited amount of space.
5. Pulling Over Safely: You’ll need to demonstrate the ability to pull over to the roadside in case of an emergency and safely rejoin traffic when it’s clear.
