Get Ready for Different Road Types

Mastering a variety of road types will give you the edge on test day. In Peoria, the driving test may take you through several different road conditions, including:

• Residential Streets: Residential areas like West Gilbert Avenue require you to control your speed, respond promptly to stop signs, and watch for pedestrians and parked vehicles that may obstruct your view.
• City Avenues: Routes such as North Sterling Avenue exemplify urban streets near the test center, where managing moderate traffic, handling intersections, and executing lane changes are essential skills.
• Major Arterial Roads: I-74, functioning similarly to a highway, may be part of your test to challenge your abilities in higher-speed driving and merging into fast-moving traffic streams.
• Intersections Requiring Stopping and Yielding: Places like N Sterling Ave & West War Memorial Dr (US-150) will test your ability to come to full stops, yield appropriately, and proceed through intersections controlled by various traffic signals and signs, ensuring safety and compliance.
• Multiple Lanes: In the vicinity of the Peoria SOS, US-150 serves as a multi-lane road where you will be evaluated on lane discipline, including staying within lane markings, signaling before lane shifts, and keeping steady speeds during these maneuvers.

Behind-The-Wheel Test - Key Components

To ensure success on your road test, it’s important to practice key elements beforehand, such as:

1. Controlled Starts and Safe Stops: You’ll be tested on how smoothly you start the car, merge into flowing traffic, and bring the vehicle to a gradual stop at signs, crosswalks, or when other vehicles are ahead.
2. Adhering to Speed Limits: You’ll be required to follow the speed limits carefully during the test, adjusting your speed based on road types and conditions to ensure safe driving.
3. Mirror Use and Shoulder Checks: You’re expected to use your mirrors throughout the test and perform shoulder checks when merging or switching lanes to ensure safety.
4. Three-Point Turn Maneuver: During the test, you will need to show your ability to turn the vehicle in a confined area using a three-point turn or K-turn.
5. Reversing in a Straight Line: You will need to back up for about 50 feet, ensuring you look over your shoulder and avoid using only mirrors to guide you.
