  • Drivers License > New Renewal Duplicate > Learners Permit And Drivers Permit

  Nearly every state requires each teen or new driver to obtain a learners permit – and hold that permit for a certain time period – before he or she can move on to the full drivers license (or, depending on the state’s graduated driver licensing program, the next level of drivers permit). Actually, unless you live in New Hampshire, if you’re a new driver you can expect to hold some kind of learners permit, or observe a certain length of a waiting period before your written and road tests, regardless of whether you’re a teen or adult. Once you’ve checked your state in the grid below, find out how long you’re required to hold a permit (or wait before taking your road test). Then, you can start making plans for obtaining your permit, such as taking a..

• Do I need a NV drivers permit before applying for a Nevada drivers license?

  • Drivers License > New Renewal Duplicate > Learners Permit And Drivers Permit

  About the Nevada Learners Permit and Drivers License The Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (NH DMV) mandates that most drivers in the state receive a drivers permit or a learners permit before they are licensed to drive in the state.

• Does my state offer a permit practice driving test?

  • Drivers License > Practice Tests > Learners Permit Practice Tests

  Some states do offer a permit practice driving test. These usually consist of a few questions taken from the drivers manual, to allow drivers license candidates to practice for the drivers permit test.

If your state doesn’t offer free questions or if they only have a few, you can buy a practice test with as many as a hundred questions for a nominal fee...

• How old do I have to be to obtain a permit?

  • Drivers License > New Renewal Duplicate > Learners Permit And Drivers Permit

  That depends on your state, which permit you want to obtain (some states include more than one kind of drivers permit in their GDL programs) and, in some cases, whether you’ve taken drivers education. The grid below will tell you how old you must be to obtain the first learners permit (unless otherwise stated) in your state; if your state’s GDL program requires you to obtain another kind of drivers permit between the initial permit and your full drivers license, that required age will be older than the one you see in the grid (but younger than 18 or, in some cases, 21). Your state’s DMV or driver licensing Web site and driver handbook are two good places to find out more information about your state’s GDL program. They’re also great resources for learning more..
