Answer 1

Ohio

Restricted License: 16

Full License: 18

Driver's Ed Req: Yes (under 18)

Additional Restrictions: Drivers under the age of 17 can't drive between 12:00 am and 6:00 am and can't drive with more than one non-family member under the age of 21, under 18 between 1:00 am and 5:00 am.

Answer 2

I thought it was 15 1/2 to get your learner's permit and then 16 to get your license.  Check the state website (www.ohio.gov) to make sure, though.  And you can always check with your local BMV - they should be in the phone book....
