Answer 2

I live in Topeka, and you can get your restricted at 15 (so you can drive to and from school and work, or elsewhere with a family member, or someone over 21 in the car with you) and you get your full license at 16.

By the way, I would recommend going to Driver's Ed because they give you a slip that you can take down to the DMV and you don't have to take the driving test to get your license.
