You don't have to have YOUR insurance at the driving test.

Has anyone insured their car with Privilege?

You obvousily have been driving... my guess with one of your parents? They have to go to the DMV also, so use the car you've been driving. They don't require you to have insurance, just for your parents to have insurance on the car you'll be driving for the test.

You don't need to buy insurance before the test, because if you don't pass the test. there would be no point to buy insurance.

... In other words, show up with the car you've been driving with the person who owns the car that has insurance, and you'll be able to take the test. Then afterwards when you have the money, buy a car and insurance.

Call the DMV and ask-- they will be able to tell you. Good luck on the test!

How easy is the drivers permit test?

I would seriously doubt it. First of all, you have to have a license to get a rental car and usually you have to be 25 years old to rent one due to insurance reasons.

Contract new car?

Your driver license examinations include:
•A vision test. If you need glasses or corrective contact lenses to pass this test, you must wear them. Your license will show that you must wear “corrective lenses” while driving. If you do not pass the vision test, you will be referred to your vision specialist. A driving test may be required.
•A test of traffic laws, road signs, and driving safety rules (written or audio) to find out if you know how to legally drive your vehicle.
•A driving test, if required. This test is usually given by appointment only. For the driving test, bring:
*your old license or instruction permit, if you have one.
*a licensed driver.
*a vehicle that is safe to drive and displays a front and rear license plate. The vehicle’s brake lights, horn, parking brake, and electric signals must work properly and the vehicle cannot have bald tires. The driver’s side window must roll down. The windshield must allow a full unobstructed field of vision and there must be two rear view mirrors (one on the left outside of the vehicle).
You will be asked to locate the controls for the vehicle’s headlights, windshield wipers, defroster, and emergency flashers. You must demonstrate how to use the parking brake. You must show that your car is properly insured. If you use a rental car for the driving test, the driver’s name must show on the contract as the insured. You must also wear your seat belt.
NOTE: The driving test will be postponed if the vehicle does not meet the above requirements or if you refuse to use your seat belt during the driving test.

Whose fault is it?

Check with your local rental companies. In most cases the contract prohibits unlicensed operators from driving the vehicle under any circumstances. This would mean that no, you could not rent a car to take your driving test in.

On another note, even if you did rent the car to take the test in, how would you legally get it to the testing center for the road test?

If someone gives you a car and they don't have the title, is there a way to get it?

You would be far better off taking the test in the vehicle you practiced in, you are already familiar with the layout of the dashboard and controls!
