Driver License Stations

Question: Do I have to go to the driver license station in my home county?

Answer: No. You may apply for your driver license at any driver license testing center, not just in the county in which you live.

Question: Do all stations offer the same services?

Answer: Most do. However, there are a few exceptions:

Express stations, located in Memphis and Nashville do not administer vision, knowledge or skills tests, or process original handgun carry permits or original ID Only applications

CDL skills tests (for commercial driver licenses), are only offered at eight stations (Davidson/Hart Lane, Hamilton, Knox/Straw Plains, Madison, Maury, Putnam, Shelby/Whitehaven, Washington)

All full service locations now offer driving records and process original handgun permits.

Table 1 below is a list of all locations (DL Stations and County Clerk Offices) offering driver license services. Next to each location name is a summary of each service that the station provides.
NOTE: Any of the full service stations can administer CDL knowledge test as well.

Table 2 below summarizes services offered by County Clerk offices. There are several County Clerks who have contracted with the Department of Safety to offer duplicate and renewal express services at the local County Clerk Office. The majority of these offices do not offer any testing services, however a few of them are authorized to provide the vision exam required for most out of state license exchanges. These offices and the specific services they provide are noted in Table 2 below.
