Want to Order Northern Marianas Drivers License? Follow These Steps Now.

So, I finally got around to getting my Northern Mariana Islands driver’s license. It was a bit of a journey, let me tell you. You know, I’ve been living here for a while now, and I figured it was time to make things official. Plus, driving around with my old license was starting to feel a bit sketchy.

First, I had to gather all my documents. They wanted everything, it felt like my whole life story. I dug out my passport, and proof of residency. It was a whole thing. I made a list of everything I needed beforehand, just to be sure I didn’t miss anything.

Then came the tricky part – figuring out where to go. I’d heard you had to go to the DMV in Susupe, the one near the Courthouse. I asked around and, yeah, that was the place. I went on a Tuesday morning, hoping to beat the rush.

I walked in, took a number, and waited. And waited. Finally, my number was called. I went up to the counter, feeling a bit nervous, handed over all my documents, and filled out the application form. They checked everything, and then came the written test. It wasn’t too bad, mostly common sense stuff about road signs and traffic rules. I took some time to read online about the specific driving rules of the Northern Mariana Islands, this helped a lot. I passed, thankfully!

After the written test, I had to schedule the road test. They gave me a date a couple of weeks out. I practiced driving around in the meantime, getting used to the local roads and all that. When the day of the road test came, I was a little jittery, but I took some deep breaths and went for it. The examiner was pretty chill, which helped. We drove around for about 20 minutes, and then he told me I passed! What a relief!

So, I went back to the DMV, paid the fee, got my picture taken, and waited for my new license to be printed. When they handed it to me, I felt a sense of accomplishment. Finally, an official Northern Mariana Islands driver! It was a process, but I got it done. And now, I can drive around without a worry, well, except for the crazy drivers out there, but that’s another story!

Driving in the Northern Mariana Islands

Now that I’m officially a licensed driver here, I’ve noticed a few things about driving in the Northern Mariana Islands. The roads can be a bit rough in some places, and you’ve got to watch out for those sudden potholes. Also, people here have a pretty relaxed driving style, which can take some getting used to. But overall, it’s been pretty smooth sailing so far. I’m just glad I finally got that license!
