Local tips

Olds Registries Ltd. is at 6 - 5219 50 Ave. Call 403-556-3209 to confirm hours, which vary, and plan to book your road test by appointment. The most important thing nearby is the railway: map data shows five level crossings clustered about 235 m to 240 m from the registry and another about 600 m away. Each time, slow down, look both ways, and never stop on the tracks; wait until there is room for your whole car on the far side. A set of traffic lights about 240 m away is the nearest of five within a kilometre. Olds is also full of pedestrian crossings, with 82 marked crosswalks nearby, and Olds Elementary School is about 710 m away, so watch for students on weekdays. Our 48.7 km practice route heads up 50 Avenue to 46 Street and 57 Avenue, goes out along Netook Road and Highway 27, then comes back through 70 Avenue and 46 Avenue (Highway 2A) before finishing on 54 Street. Practice judging safe gaps when turning across traffic.

Common questions

Olds Registries Ltd. road test FAQ

What are the hours at Olds Registries Ltd.?

Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Olds Registries Ltd. at 403-556-3209 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through Olds Registries Ltd.'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 Olds Registries Ltd.?

Yes. This page has a 48.7 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
