Does anyone know what happens if you forgot to renew your drivers license before your birthday ?

Question

If it is only a few days after your birthday can you just fill out the forms normally, or do you have to take a written drivers test?

Answer 1

Go to the DMV and tell the clerk what happened. You won't have to take any tests.  

Answer 2

If you haven't taken and passed a driver's education course you will have to take all the tests regardless of when your birthday is.

Answer 3

It depends on how long your licence lapsed, but I do not know of any place that re-tests for only a few days.  I had people come in my office to renew licences lapsed for months, and it wasn't a problem.  Some places will retest if the lapse is a year or more.  Without knowing where you are, the answer is, of course, only a guess.

Answer 4

they may make you pay a late fee, hope you got some birthday money!

Answer 5

Did you get a money-gift from your parents or relative on your birthday? If it was, just give that money to DMV when you walk-in for a late fee.
