Tuscaloosa driver license test guide
This ALEA office publishes both written and road testing. Prepare the identity and residency file first, then bring the licensed driver, insurance evidence, and suitable vehicle required for the road-skills appointment.
Check the office before traveling
The published address is Trooper Post, 2645 Skyland Blvd E, Tuscaloosa, 35405 and the listed phone number is (659) 676-1210. Review the opening-hours section, scheduler, and current ALEA document rules before the visit.
Published hours and a scheduling link do not guarantee a same-day slot. ALEA requirements and local service availability can change.
Prepare for both stages
ALEA’s document rules apply before testing can be completed. Bring originals and verify the current fee and payment guidance.
Identity and Social Security
Prepare the accepted primary and secondary identity evidence and your Social Security card or other documentation ALEA allows for your situation.
Alabama residence
ALEA lists two proofs of principal Alabama residence. Applicants under 19 also need the published school-enrollment or graduation evidence unless an exception applies.
Written-test preparation
Study the current Alabama Driver Manual and road signs, then check the listed testing fee and accepted payment methods before the visit.
Road-test vehicle and sponsor
Adults completing all testing must bring a licensed driver, proof of insurance, and a vehicle suitable for the skills test. Under-18 requirements follow Alabama’s graduated-license rules.
How to plan the ALEA visit
Check the listed service
Confirm the scheduler, office hours, and that both tests you need are available at this location.
Build the document file
Gather identity, Social Security, residence, school, and license evidence that applies to your age and situation.
Prepare the knowledge test
Study the current Alabama Driver Manual, signs, laws, and safe-driving rules.
Prepare the road test
