In California did they change the driving age to 18?  I heard they did.

I don't think its true though.  I think it would be a bad idea considering you can get a job at 16 and you should be able to drive your self and not have your mom/dad take and pick you up at work

I also heard this true but I dont know if it is true.

I really dont care, thats less useless kids on the road that dont know how to drive.

I don't think most kids are responsible enough to drive at 16 anyway.

in 16 and i think that i am better than half the people on the road.  I drive snowmobiles in the winter, i do about 1000 miles on my snowmobile each winter.  i thinks thats the reason i have stayed out of so many crashes and fender benders because there have been over 30 situations that i have been in, in the last 6 months. but i moved and was smart so i would not get hit or hit someone else. (cause my reaction time is fast and i move to the side of the road when there is a big or sudden stop).  Most of the kids i have drove with suck like my one friend has a manual but he only knows how to shift until he is in  5th gear.  He goes around in subs in 5th gear cause he doesnt know how to actually stay in a gear.  But im not saying that all 16 year olds know how to drive well im just saying that i do.  There are some kids that were in my class and im scared to death that they will be driving soon.

In Indiana, it is 15 for a permit.  For Lisence it is one month and one day after your birthday if you took drivers ed.  If you didnt take drviers ed, it is 16 and a half till you get you lisence.  I think that is right.

In CT, you get your permit anytime after your 16th birthday. Your license is 4 months after that if you take Drivers ed, and 6 months if you don't.

I live in the beautiful state of California. It has been awhile since I got my liscense but I am sure you dont have to wait until 18. There are certian penalties in which your driver's licence can be suspended until 18.

To be sure call you local DMV and ask them. They will know.

Ok.

Here in La Florida, We have a Tri-Fold system.

At 15 you can get a "Learners Permit", Which means you can drive with a parent or guardian in the front seat.

Then, One year from the day you got your Learners Permit,

Which makes you 16, you can get a "Drivers Permit". It means you can drive on your own, but you are not supposed to drive inbetween the hours of 12am - 4am unless for work or school.

Then at 18 you can get a "Drivers Lisence", which is an unrestricted lisence.
