Local tips
Two railway level crossings stand out near Forestburg Registries at 4909 50 ST: map data places them about 640 m and 805 m from the office. At each one, slow down, look both ways and never stop on the tracks. Before you go, call 780-582-3560 to confirm hours, which vary, and keep in mind that road tests are by appointment only. There are no traffic lights nearby, but map data counts eight stop signs in the area, so practice a complete stop behind the line and a careful look in every direction before moving off. Forestburg School is about 465 m away; on weekdays, expect students crossing and lower your speed. 43 Avenue, part of Highway 53, is about 510 m away and posted at 60 km/h. Our 43.7 km practice route leaves on 53 Street, takes 43 Avenue onto Highway 53, then follows Range Road 153 and Township Road 424 to Highway 856 before coming back through 49 Street and 50 Street. On the range and township roads, practice adjusting your speed for the conditions and checking well ahead at every intersection.
Common questions
Forestburg Registries road test FAQ
What are the hours at Forestburg Registries?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Forestburg Registries at 780-582-3560 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through Forestburg Registries's road test booking page (the "Official booking" button on this page, also listed on alberta.ca), or in person at the registry. You'll need your 9-digit MVID number, printed near the barcode on your licence, and any outstanding Government of Alberta fines must be paid first. Registry agents set their own road test fees, up to the maximum in the province's Registry Agent Product Catalogue, so confirm the fee when you book.
What do I need for the road test?
A vehicle that meets all legal and safety requirements, plus the documents listed on the registry's road test information sheet and in your confirmation letter. The information sheet also covers eligibility, fees, and the registry's cancellation and no-show policies.
How long do I need my learner's licence first, and how is the test marked?
You must have held a Class 7 learner's licence for at least one year and be at least 16 (with a parent's or guardian's written consent if you're under 18). You fail the Class 5 road test with more than 75 points, or automatically if you endanger someone, drive unsafely or break traffic laws. After you pass the road test and a vision test, you get a probationary Class 5-GDL licence, which you hold for at least two years.
Is a practice route available for Forestburg Registries?
Yes. This page has a 43.7 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
