In order to drive a car you must be no younger than seventeen.

Answer 2

Answer 3

you can learn on some off road places at 16 but cant do your test till 17.

Answer 4

16 if you have a disability....17 otherwise

Answer 5

Where I live - in Montana, you can start taking courses at 14.5 and get your liscence by the time you're 15!!  It's madness, I know - but that's just the way it is!  Yay!!

Sorry, but I think that where you live, you have to be at least seventeen!

Hope I helped!

Answer 6

In the UK you need to be at least 17 to take your practical car test (and you need to take your theory test first). However, there has been some speculation that this may rise to 18 :(



If you are currently getting Disability Living Allowance at the higher rate (mobility component), then you can take your car driving test at 16.

Answer 7

17, but you cannot even book it until you have passed your theory test.

Answer 8

17
