Eligible applicants can take the knowledge test online or at an approved in-person testing location. After satisfying the knowledge and vision requirements, the applicant purchases the TIPIC through an Ohio Deputy Registrar.
BMV and Driver Exam Services Near Hebron

A practical option is the Newark area:
Newark Deputy Registrar

Newark, OH 43055
Newark Driver Exam Station
873 E. Main Street
Newark, OH 43055
These neighboring facilities perform different functions. The Deputy Registrar handles licensing transactions. The Driver Exam Station handles testing.
Behind-the-Wheel Training in Hebron

Ohio DPS currently lists:
Licking Valley Driving Schools at Hebron
126 E. Main Street
Hebron, OH 43025
for behind-the-wheel, classroom, and virtual training.
A Skillful Driver provides the applicable online course. Students who need Ohio's 8 professional driving hours can investigate this separately licensed local option.
Learning to Drive in Hebron: U.S. 40, SR 79 and I-70
Hebron's road network makes the village substantially different from the northern Licking County communities.
The village identifies its historic and current transportation network as including U.S. 40, State Route 79, and Interstate 70, with I-70 traversing the southern part of Hebron.
U.S. 40 Through Hebron
U.S. 40 is also Hebron's Main Street corridor.
For a beginning driver, this creates practice involving a major U.S. route operating through a village environment rather than a controlled-access highway.
Students need to recognize:
Local intersections
Turning traffic
Businesses and driveways
Pedestrians
Changes in speed and road character
before moving toward higher-speed roads.
State Route 79
Hebron's current legislation continues to identify SR 79 as an important village roadway.
SR 79 provides an important connection between Hebron, the Newark-Heath area, Buckeye Lake, and I-70.
For a learner, that makes it useful practice for transitioning from village streets to a regional state route.
I-70 Near Hebron
Hebron's proximity to I-70 allows a student to progress from local roads and U.S. 40 toward interstate driving after sufficient experience.
Ohio's professional-training rules require beginning drivers to receive non-expressway instruction before progressing to expressway driving.
Lakewood High School and Lancer Road
Lakewood High School is located at:
9331 Lancer Road
Hebron, OH 43025
Lakewood Middle School is at 5222 National Road SE, while Lakewood Elementary is at 709 Deacon Street.
This gives Hebron students several actual school-driving environments rather than one generic school-traffic paragraph.
Walking and Trail Connections in Hebron
Hebron has also been developing pedestrian and multi-use connections.
Village planning discussions specifically address crosswalks along Main Street and a path connecting Canal Park toward High Street and the Ohio Canal Greenway Trail.
Canal Park itself has a sidewalk and walking path connecting toward Buckeye Lake.
For beginning drivers, this means Main Street and nearby local roads should be approached with awareness of pedestrians and trail users as well as vehicle traffic.
