Local tips
The Registries at Smoky Lake are at #4, 141 White Earth Street. Map data shows no traffic lights and no marked crosswalks within the area around the office, and only two stop signs within 1.2 km, so much of the judgement at intersections will be yours. Look left, right and left again before pulling out. 50 Street, which carries Highway 855 at 50 km/h, is about 170 m away. Highway 28, about 675 m away, is posted at 100 km/h, so leave a generous gap when you turn onto it. H.A. Kostash School is about 630 m away; watch for students on weekdays. Hours vary, so phone the registry at 780-372-3584 to confirm before you go, and note road tests are by appointment. Our 47.1 km practice route uses Wild Rose Avenue and West Railway Drive to reach 50 Street and Highway 855, then Township Road 590, Range Road 174 and Highway 28 before returning by Range Road 180 and Township Road 594. The route includes a sharp left onto White Earth Street, so slow right down for it.
Common questions
The Registries at Smoky Lake road test FAQ
What are the hours at The Registries at Smoky Lake?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call The Registries at Smoky Lake at 780-372-3584 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through The Registries at Smoky Lake'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 The Registries at Smoky Lake?
Yes. This page has a 47.1 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
