Louisiana’s Amazon Alexa practice driving test service provided
by Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) was recently recognized by
StateScoop and given the State IT Innovation of the Year award
which highlights the best and brightest in the state IT
community.
The Alexa skill allows citizens to take practice driving tests.
The service can be used by individuals applying for a driver’s
license or anyone looking to challenge their memory of Louisiana’s
driving rules. Available for download, the Amazon Alexa skill
‘Louisiana Driving Test’ can be used on any Alexa or Echo device.
Once prompted, Alexa will provide instructions to answer 10
multiple choice questions and keep score as randomly selected
questions from an extensive question bank are read aloud.
“We wanted folks to enjoy the process of obtaining their
driver’s license,” said Commissioner Karen St. Germain. “It’s an
honor to be recognized and we are excited to be able to provide
Louisiana drivers this cutting-edge service.”
The award-winning service is one of many applications developed
in a partnership between Louisiana Interactive and the Office of
Motor Vehicles. Additional services provided by the OMV can be
found on Expresslane.org.
