    • D 12 months

  4. You are 20, have never been licensed, and choose not to take driver education. What must you do before getting a license?

    • A Hold a learner permit for 18 months and drive at least 50 hours
    • B Hold a learner permit for six months and drive at least 30 hours
    • C Pass only the written and driving tests; no permit time is needed
    • D Hold a learner permit for 90 days and drive at least 40 hours
    Show answer

    D. Hold a learner permit for 90 days and drive at least 40 hours

    New drivers 19 or older may skip driver education if they hold a learner permit for 90 days and log at least 40 hours of driving, 10 of them after sunset. Completing an approved driver education course instead waives the 90-day wait.
