这笔费用在申请时缴纳。

你的社会安全号码(SSN)

提供你的号码,以及谁能看到

申请或更新驾照时,南卡罗来纳州车管局(SCDMV)可以要求你提供社会安全号码(SSN)的证明。税务厅(Department of Revenue)可以把纳税人的 SSN 报送给 SCDMV 和州选举委员会(State Election Commission)。

要参加的考试

视力检查

SCDMV 的视力检查看你的视力是否达到 20/40 或更好;如果你在网点没能通过,就必须由有执照的眼科专业人员检查你的眼睛,判断是否符合南卡罗来纳州的视力要求,你的驾照上也可能被加上必须佩戴矫正镜片或接受治疗的限制。眼科证明的有效期为 36 个月;现役军人则改为提供开具不超过 31 天的军人收支结算单(LES)和一张未过期的军人身份证件。

笔试有几次机会

南卡罗来纳州没有规定两次考试之间要等多久,也没有限制你能考多少次,但每考一次都要交 $2,而且必须在下午 4 点前到 SCDMV 网点才能参加考试。你可以在任何一个网点用现金、支票、信用卡或借记卡付款;卡必须是你本人名下的,不能用公司名下的卡。

  • 南卡罗来纳州对笔试没有规定等待期,也没有次数上限;每考一次都要付费,笔试每次 $2。

  • 笔试没通过的话,官方没有公布任何等待期、次数上限,也没有作废你申请的规定;再考一次,官方公布的唯一成本就是每次 $2 的考试费。

  • 两个工作日、七个日历日、30 个日历日这样逐次拉长的等待时间,管的是路考,不是笔试。

笔试练习题

如果你申请的是 E 类或 F 类驾照,要看的是另一本《大型非商用及休闲车辆驾驶员手册》(Large Non-commercial and Recreational Vehicles Driver's Manual),不是普通的驾驶员手册。

  • 对于普通驾照的路考,SCDMV 指定的复习材料是《南卡罗来纳州驾驶员手册》(South Carolina Driver's Manual)。

  • 按你的许可所对应的车辆类型,看相应的那本手册;参加笔试当天,要在下午 4 点前到 SCDMV 网点。

  • 你可以用 SCDMV 免费的手机应用练习,搜索“SC DMV Driver Exam”。真实考试的每一道题都出自驾驶员手册,手册第 12 节还印了十道样题和答案。

使用翻译

如果你是韩国国民或台湾地区居民,办驾照时,你所属领事馆出具的认证信可以替代 4030 表的翻译件,但这封信自落款日期起只有 30 天有效。外国出生证明仍然需要 4030 表。

用学习许可练车

练车时谁可以坐在你旁边

必须有一位年满 21 岁、至少有一年驾龄的持照司机坐在你旁边。

  • 你持学习驾驶许可开车时,陪同的司机必须坐在你旁边的座位上。

  • 坐在你旁边的人,必须是南卡罗来纳州法律第 56-1-100(A)(1)-(7) 条列出的持照人员。

路考当天带什么

谁陪你去

参加普通路考时,要带一位持照司机同行。车内和车辆周围只允许申请人和 SCDMV 工作人员在场。

考试用车和保险

车辆必须有有效的车牌、行驶证(registration card)、保险卡,以及由获准在南卡罗来纳州经营的保险公司承保的责任险——如果是租来的车,租车合同上的被保险人必须写着你的名字。车的前照灯、刹车、雨刮器、安全带、转向灯、后视镜、车速表、除霜器和喇叭都必须能正常使用。

去哪里办
