What does a driver examiner do?

As a driver examiner, your job is to oversee an assessment and determine whether or not an applicant has received enough training to pass the exam and obtain a license to drive independently. As part of your duties and responsibilities, you may collect fees, explain violations, administer additional tests, evaluate applications, and otherwise help manage the licensing process. Most driver examiners work directly for state licensing offices, and some driver examiners also help process applications for other types of licenses. This job title refers exclusively to positions that help grant driver's licenses to applicants and should not be confused with evaluating drivers for other purposes, such as deciding whether or not to admit them to a professional vehicle racing team.
