Drivers wanted. i am so confused.?

Question

So I am on that long confusing journey towards getting my driver's license. I took the online course, I got my certificate, and I got that DMV enrollment sheet.

Now I have to take the permit test.

But I'm still confused.

Exactly how many questions are on it? What happens if you fail? Where do you go after that?

Can anyone out there PLEASE give me sort of a walkthrough? From beginning to end?

GOD BLESS YOU.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Don't swet it go down to your local DMV & grab a coppy of there driveing book. Look thrugh it most permit tests are about 10 questions they varry from state to state.

If you took the on line course & did good you should do ok on

the permit test. If some bone head like me can get a drivers

licence & keep it for 25 years you can too.

oh yea buckle up.

Answer 3

get a rules of the road book and take the test that they have in the book.  i know when i renewed my dl i had to take it and i think i got one wrong and passed.  i know in the state im in you can miss no more than 5 wrong out of 30 i think.  its been about 14 years though.

How to apply for a provisional permit if you are under 18

To apply for a provisional permit, you will need the following:

Be at least 15 ½, but under 18 years of age

Visit a DMV office (make an appointment for faster service)

Complete the application form DL 44 (An original DL 44 form must be submitted. Copies obtained by xeroxing, faxing, or other methods will not be accepted.)

Have your parents’ or guardians’ signatures on the application form DL 44

Give a thumb print

Have your picture taken

Provide your social security number. It will be verified with the Social Security Administration while you are in the office.

Verify your birth date and legal presence

Provide your true full name

Submit the proper form(s) for driver education and/or driver training classes (See below for details.)

Pay the application fee (This fee entitles you to three exams of any type within the 12-month period and pays for both the instruction permit and the driver license. If all requirements are not met within the 12-month period, the application becomes void and all steps must be completed again.)

Pass a vision exam

Pass a traffic laws and sign test. There are 46 questions on the test. A passing score is at least 39 correct answers. You have three chances to pass the test. If you fail, you must wait 7 days before taking it again.

Note: To allow you sufficient time for testing DMV will not be administering written or audio exams after 4:30 p.m.

Driver Education and Driver Training Form Requirements

If you are 15 ½ to 17 ½ years of age, you will need to provide proof that you:

Completed driver education (Form DL 387 or OL 237) and are taking driver training (DL 392 or OL 392)

OR

Completed driver education and driver training (DL 387, DL 388, DL 388A, OL 237, or OL 238).

OR

Are enrolled and participating in an approved integrated driver education/driver training program (DL 400).

If you are over 17 ½ but under 18 years of age, you may get your permit without the driver education and driver training certificates however, you will not be able to take the driving test until you turn 18.

Once you pass your written test, you will be issued a provisional permit.

A parent, guardian, spouse or adult 25 years of age or older, who has a valid California driver license, must be with you when you drive. He or she must sit in a position close enough to take control of the vehicle, if necessary. It is illegal for you to drive alone at any time.

Before being eligible to take your driving test you must:

Be 16 years old

AND

Have held your permit for a minimum of six months

AND

Have completed driver education

AND

Have completed 6 hours of professional driver training

AND

Have completed 50 hours of practice with an adult 25 years or older. The adult must have a valid California driver license and certify to the 50 hours of practice. At least 10 of the 50 hours must have been done at night.

To take your driving test, you will need to:

Make a driving test appointment. (Driving tests are not given without an appointment.) You may also call 1-800-777-0133 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday-Friday, to make a driving test appointment.

Provide proof of financial responsibility

After you pass your driving test you will be issued an interim license valid for 60 days until you receive your new photo license in the mail. Check your address before you leave DMV and tell the DMV representative if you have moved or if your address is incorrect. If you have not received your license after 60 days, call 1-800-777-0133 to check on the status. Have your interim license with you to provide information when requested.

If you fail your driving test, you must wait two weeks before you can take the test again. You have three chances to pass.

If driver education and driver training were taken in a state other than California, DMV will accept either a To Secondary Schools Other Than California Schools form DL 33 completed by the out-of state school, or a letter on the out-of state school’s stationery signed by a school official stating that the courses are equivalent to California’s requirements. Instructional permits issued by another state are not acceptable proof.
