How appointments work

NCDMV says you do not need an appointment: driver license offices accept walk-ins all day, from open to close or until the office reaches capacity. Appointments are also offered online, and depending on the office and time of day a walk-in may be faster. Current wait times for each office are posted at VisitDMV.nc.gov.

Where to take the driving test in North Carolina
In North Carolina, adults with a learner permit and teens seeking a Level 2 Limited Provisional License can take the road test at an NCDMV driver license office or with a private driver education school that NCDMV has trained and certified to give road tests; after a school test you still visit a driver license office to finish. NCDMV publishes the agency's list of schools that offer road tests. Check the agency's page before you book a test.
