TM 11240-15/3F
(1) Read or recite the following statement to the applicant: “You are about to
be administered a road test. “Is there anything that will hinder your ability to drive this vehicle
such as medication, alcohol, sleep deprivation, etc”? You are required to walk around the
vehicle and explain pre-operation inspection procedures. You will then drive over a specified
course. During this test, your driving skills will be evaluated. You will be advised well in
advance as to changes in direction. If you do not understand any directions during this test, ask
me to repeat them. Is this clear? “If so, you may start when ready.”
(2) Provide the applicant a NAVMC 10627, Vehicle and Equipment
Operational Record (trip ticket) and tell him/her to complete the operator's portion of the
NAVMC 10627 per the TM 4700-15/1_, Ground Equipment Record Procedures, just as it would
normally be done if going on an actual “Run”. Observe the pre-operation inspection carefully,
and discontinue the test if the vehicle is not in good mechanical or safe operating condition.
(3) During the test, ride with the applicant to observe driving practices. Give
brief, distinct instructions well in advance of required maneuvers.
(4) The Licensing Examiner/Licensing NCO has the responsibility to stop the
road test in the interests of safety. A test terminated due to safety will constitute a failure of that
test. The Licensing Examiner/Licensing NCO will use the Road Test Score Sheet, Figure A-13,
Appendix A, for scoring the applicant on the road test. Each applicant tested will be afforded
one occurrence for each area scored. Point value for each specific area is shown on Figure A-13,
Appendix A.
c. Passing Score. 80 % or above will constitute mastery for all tests. The maximum
score an applicant can receive is 100 points. All weak areas/points will be annotated at the
bottom of the score sheet and applicant will be counseled. Retain score sheet in Operator’s
History File.
d. Retesting Failed Applicants. Before any applicant can be given a retest, he/she
must receive appropriate remedial training. Applicant must wait at least 24 hours after initial test
was administered. Commanders may make a recommendation not to retest. Any applicant that
fails a second time will have his /her potential for driving reevaluated.
4-6. RECORDING ACTION. Complete applicable portions of Part II of the individual’s
application form, Figure A-1, Appendix A and file in Operator’s History File.

NOTES:
(1) Successful completion of knowledge/skills/road tests on any one of the
MTVR cargo vehicles (MK27/28) meets licensing requirements for the
MK23/25 MTVR cargo Trucks.
(2) Use complete vehicle types for listing vehicles qualified to operate on OF
346. For example, if a Marine qualifies to operate the largest vehicle will also
be licensed to operate all lower vehicles listed for that class of vehicle, i.e.
passes M1165 or M1114 will qualify for M1151/M1152/1123 with armor.
