Local tips

The Petitcodiac driver examination office is at 18 Kay Street, open weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with road tests by appointment. Map data shows a parking lot about 60 metres away. The railway runs right through the village: map data shows level crossings about 130 and 330 metres from the office, with another about 730 metres away. Slow down, look both ways, and never stop on the tracks. Old Post Road (Route 106) is about 75 metres away, and Route 1 runs about 660 metres away at 110 km/h. The fire station is about 245 metres away and a school about 420 metres away. Our 52.9 km practice route takes Main Street, Old Post Road and Smith Street (Route 106) to exit 223 toward Portage Vale. It loops through the countryside on Anagance Ridge Road, Buckley Settlement Road, Hillgrove Road (Route 890) and King Street (Route 885). It returns along River Road and finishes through Spring, Church, Cross and Academy streets. Practice rural speed control and careful railway crossings.

Common questions

Petitcodiac road test FAQ

What are the hours at Petitcodiac?

Service New Brunswick lists: Mon–Fri 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Road tests by appointment. Offices close on statutory holidays, so check snb.ca before you go.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through Service New Brunswick's Driver Examination Online Booking Service (linked from gnb.ca's Driver licence testing page), or call TeleServices at 1-888-762-8600 (Monday to Friday 8:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.). The road test fee is $25 plus HST for each attempt, and you can take the test in English or French.

What do I need to bring?

A licensed driver with at least three years of experience and a valid Class 5 (or equivalent) licence to come with you, your valid learner's permit, a signed and valid vehicle registration, proof of valid insurance for the vehicle, your driving school certificate if you have one, and proof of payment for the test. Bring paper copies; only the proof of insurance can be digital. If anything is missing, you'll be turned away.

How long do I need my learner's licence first, and what if I fail?

New drivers take this road test to move from Class 7 Level 1 (learner) to Level 2. You must have held Level 1 for at least one year, or eight months if you completed a recognized driver education course (green certificate required). The wait is waived if you've been fully licensed before. If you don't pass, you book and pay for another attempt.
