DED History

Driver's Examination Division

This division provides an effective program of driver testing to ensure Missouri licensed drivers have a level of competency consistent with safe driving habits and practices as well as demonstrated skills and knowledge of Missouri laws related to traffic safety.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol provides the driver examination portion of an individual qualifying for a Missouri Operator's License, Chauffeur's License, or Commercial Drivers' License (CDL). This function is part of the Driver Examination Division; which is responsible for the individuals who administer the tests, providing areas for testing, and making sure the tests are administered fairly and professionally.

Driver Examination Stations are provided in each county of the state and CDL sites are located within each troop. While appointments are not necessary to take an operator's license test, they are necessary to take a Commercial Driver's License test. Before arriving at a Driver Examination Station an individual needs to understand what will be required and the hours of operation for that particular station.
