Colonel Eric T. Olson, superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, has announced that beginning April 27 the Patrol will provide written-knowledge testing for commercial driver’s license (CDL) applicants with essential needs.
A news release says the CDL written tests will be limited to specific testing locations statewide. Potential applicants should call ahead to determine locations and times these services are offered.
A complete listing of testing locations can be found on the Patrol’s website. This link contains information on driver’s-examination stations: https://www.mshp.dps.missouri.gov/HP32DES/DESTable.jsp.
The Patrol will restrict the number of applicants allowed in each facility to ensure that the recommended social-distancing measures are followed. All applicants should wear appropriate face coverings while at the facility.
The Patrol also reminds the public that there are several COVID-19-related extensions in Missouri for licenses, permits and registrations. Information on the extensions can be viewed at: https://dor.mo.gov/open.php.
