Missourri Drivers License

Question

Hey y'all i just moved to MO and i was wondering if this state requires a Drivers Ed class before you can get your license. I'm 16, and i've had my permit for over a year. So is drivers ed required in this state???

Answer 1

The laws  have changed since I recieved my driver's license (I have lived in MO all my life)

Here's what  I found - don't be afraid to call up Missouri DMV in your area to ask them questions - they're pretty helpful.  If you have enrolled in local public school you should be starting in a week or 2 and you can ask your teachers - someone at the school can give you more information than I can.

In fact they probably have pamphlets outlining all you need to know (I substitute teach & think I've saw this in our local HS)

Missouri's Graduated Driver License law requires that all first-time drivers between 15 and 18 years old complete a period of driving with a licensed driver (instruction permit), and restricted driving (intermediate license), before getting a full driver license.

At age 16, the driver may apply for an intermediate license. The intermediate license allows the driver to drive alone except during a late night curfew (1:00 am to 5:00 am). The driver and passengers must use seat belts, be free of alcohol and drugs, and obey the traffic laws.
