The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is the agency that is responsible for the operation of the Michigan road network, including the licensing and regulation of drivers to operate motor vehicles. The main mission of the MDOT is to protect the public, prevent violations of the law, and enhance mobility by ensuring a safe and efficient transportation system.

As part of its ongoing efforts to make the roads in Michigan safer and more efficient, the MDOT is responsible for the administration of the Michigan Driver and Vehicle Owner (DMV) License Test, which is used to test the knowledge of drivers in their respective state.

The Driver and Vehicle Owner (DMV) Test is a computer-based test that is intended to be used as a screening device to determine the knowledge level of the driver.
