Applying for a Learner’s Permit

First Steps to Driving

Ready to get behind the wheel? The learner’s permit is your ticket to practice driving.

What You Need

  • Proof of age and identity (like a birth certificate)
  • Parent or guardian consent (if under 18)
  • Passing a vision and knowledge test

Practice Time

Most states set rules, like how many supervised hours you must drive before taking the road test.

Why It’s Important

The learner’s permit helps you gain real-world driving experience safely.

Examples

  • Passing the DMV knowledge test to get a permit.

  • Logging 40 hours of supervised driving before your road test.
