Flad said she is pleased to see the DMV bring the tests back, but she is still concerned about the backlog. The DMV resumed behind-the-wheel tests on Friday after a three-month suspension because of the coronavirus pandemic. “Our goal is to give instructors the authority to do license tests while the DMV was closed.” “Before taking the DMV license test we have to practice for at least six hours behind the wheel with a driving school instructor,” Johnson said. The petition drive by Lucille Johnson, Jane Flad and Amelia Sandgren has collected more than 22,000 signatures.
Three sophomores at Tamalpais High School are petitioning the state to allow private driving instructors the authority to conduct behind-the-wheel driving tests.
