  Montana law has the Department of Justice examine each driver's license applicant, and the examination includes a road test or skills test. Through the Cooperative Driver Testing Program, overseen by the Department of Justice, Motor Vehicle Division (MVD), certified teachers in state-approved high school traffic education courses can also give the knowledge and road tests to their own students, and the department can then waive those tests. Check the agency's page before you book a test.
